Excerpt:
We strode down the frozen path in dead silence for a
while. Only the
crunching and swooshing
of the fresh, dry snow beneath our feet disturbed the quiet
night in the
fields as we
reached the first
trees of the
nature reserve. The
path led straight
forward, and we
moved into the
thin forest, the
darkness immediately becoming
thicker, the pale moonlight unable to penetrate through the canopy.
There was less snow on the ground,
so even our
footsteps became quieter.
No more swooshing noise.
I heard it first and stopped dead in my tracks. A sound of
huffing and puffing, a creature battling for air as it ran through the trees. I
couldn’t see what it was,
or even tell
where the sound
was coming from,
but I didn’t
get the sense
it was chasing
us—whatever it was. It
sounded as if
it was on
the run, prey
trying to shake
off its predator.
