02 Terrifying Encounter
- Location
- The Void
[X]...Making sure not a single living person was in the general area as Brian slowly pulled out his knitting gear. Not a single person besides his Mother knew he knit, and he intends to keep it that way.
[X] You almost missed it, but the Old Guy from before had collapsed and was withering on the ground in pain! Run over and check up on him!

It was just out of the corner of his eye, but before he could head out Brian almost missed the spirit of the old man from earlier falling to the ground and seemingly trembling in pain. Deciding it'd be best to check up on him Brian quickly threw his knitting gear into his bag and rush towards the fallen spirit.
"Hey sir are you alright?!" Reaching out towards the spirit and just as Brian got close enough to attempt to help, the Old Man's head shot up with an expression of pain and rage?

Brian didn't notice it right away, as he got a good look at the man he noticed a dark aura began to form around him and then for a split-second he felt a wave of hate and grief pass through him from the spirit.
"NO! Child, you most run I don't know how much Longer I errAAAARRRHHH!"
Whatever warning the Spirit was trying to give was cut off with a Hate filled scream and the Spirit was engulfed in an eruption of the Dark Aura that had such force that Brian was sent flying back!
"Ugh…What was that?" Was all Brian could mutter as he slowly opened far being blasted to ground.
He began to pick himself off the ground he turned back to stare at the where the spirit was only to freeze. For once where at most was a 5'6 Old Man was now at minimum an 8-foot THING! It seemed to be made up of that Dark Aura from earlier, It's portions were wrong as well, it's body looked starved as it's bones were pressing up against whatever that energy was that counted as it's flesh and it's forelimbs were far larger than what any natural creature could ever be and those limbs didn't end up ending with hands, but rather three long jagged claws.
Worse of all however was its face. It too looked starved as it's cheeks were sunken in, however it didn't any other facial features like a mouth or nose besides its White Glowing eyes that seem to hold endless amounts of hatred.
For the moment everything felt like it stopped as the Boy and Creature stared at each other to Brian, even his own heart.
However, that feeling didn't last long, for in an instant the Creature lunged at him!

And It would have impaled him had he been a moment slower from rolling out the way of the claws that buried themselves halfway into the dirt, without even a second anymore Brian scurried up to his feet and took off with all the speed his legs could pump out!
As he ran as fast as he could towards the forest in hopes of losing the Thing in an area Brian is knew better than even the town! He most certainly knew the creature was behind him giving chase since the feeling of fury and dread that he felt from it was still behind him and was feeling closer rather than further away!
So with that the Boy fled through the area he all but grew up in throughout the years as a Malicious Creature filled with ill intents gave chase in silence.
Through countless bushes, past seemingly endless thickets, and over any obstacles as time almost seemed to disappear for the boy as he fled from the source of the almost all consuming vile emotions that made him fear for his life that ever so slowly but surely gained on his heels.
However, no matter how well he knew the land, no matter how he good he was at pressing on, Brian was still human, and humans make mistakes. For in an instance Brian perhaps made his last. For in his ever growing exhaustion and panic at the creature gaining on him, he failed to notice a root sticking out of the forest floor.
With a grunt of pain Brian crashed into the earth, exhausted and afraid he tried his best to get off the ground before-ACK!
A clawed foot slams into his back and forces himself back into the ground!
Realizing what just happened Brian could feel his heart crash into his chest over and over as fast as he ever felt it beat before! Knowing how grim the situation is and even with himself being all, but consumed by fear and dread, Brian forces himself to turn his head towards the Monster's own White hate filled eyes with his own fearful, yet stubborn Red eyes.
He watched as it rose it's right claw high into the sky and then to helpless watched as it brought down to finish-

-him?
Brian froze at the sudden interruption and judging by the look of the Creature's face-well more like its eyes, and the fact it stopped right before it could end him, so did it as they both process that something Made the ground around them shake.
"Grrraaaaahhh"
Turning to the source of the noise Brian saw in front of him a creature of massive proportions. Standing over half the height of the pine trees that made up the forest around them was a gigantic creature made of Green Scales and Muscle, with sharp jagged teeth that were big an sharp enough to easily Crush and Tear apart any living creature he could think of, and the two eyes that seemed made of pure Gold glaring down at them almost as if they'd daring to disturb its territory.
Then as it rose its head to let out an earth shaking roar that made his body tremble for the sheer force that its voice had!
It's...It's a Dinosaur...
Forcing himself to regretfully shake off his childish amazement at seeming quite possibly the coolest thing to ever walk on this planet and focus back at the Monster still on his back that's going to kill him!
Luckily for him the Creature was still stunned by the display of Power the Dinosaur unleashed.
[] Now's his chance to break free from the stunned monster's foot and run through the Dinosaurs legs! The Monster would have to get past the Dinosaur to get to him!
[] Decides to stay still and be silent, there's no guarantee that he can get away in time before it could cut him down. Plus he doesn't want to even think about earning that Dinosaur's attention.
AN: Well sorry for taking awhile this was a dozy to write and it didn't help that I got distracted from time to time. So anyways what's your thoughts on these turns of events? Also remember if you have any questions feel free to ask.
