It was no wonder the room was so dark, as he was looking into the gaping jaw of a wendigo. The monster was ready to sink its razor-sharp fangs into his head. Kaleb freezes in the spot and breaks into a cold sweat. He feels a rush of cold fear coming down on him like a ton of bricks, causing his legs to quiver as he looks at the monster’s sharp teeth. The stench of blood filled his nostrils, making it hard to breathe. He was sweating bullets, with the uneasiness settling in his stomach. The sharp teeth began to close together. His eyes flashed wide open, and his whole body flinched as it snapped out of the paralyzing fear. Kaleb could see the creature’s yellow teeth gnashing together as he slammed the door shut, catching a small glimpse of its hungry red eyes.

With caution, Kaleb slowly backs away from the door. He was so bewildered by the horrifying sight that he couldn’t believe his eyes. The floor betrays him by making the lightest creak that sounds like a gunshot along the empty house. He freezes in place once again, making him stand in an awkward position. The sound made his throat dry, and he felt like he was swallowing nothing but sand. The silence eats away at his thoughts, and fear courses through his nerves. His breathing becomes frantic and loud when he hears a low growl behind the door.

The door goes flying, letting loose the horrifying monster.

It crashes into the bathroom door along with the creature. The monster had tackled down the door to get Kaleb, but missed. He continues to walk backward and begins to pick up the paste. He spots the creature emerging from the bathroom, its head covered in debris from the destroyed doors. The monster was soaked in cold water from head to toe, water dripping from its mouth and head. Kaleb laid his eyes upon the huge and horrifying thing in shock.

“It’s a wendigo?” Kaleb muttered with a shaky voice, fear escaping through his lips.

He, of course, has never seen one, but he has heard the tales. A creature tall and lanky, driven by hunger, its ribs were showing; its skin was a blueish-gray color. It had elongated arms to catch its prey, and its eyes glowed a bright, ominous red. Just when Kaleb was about to make a run for it, he saw another Wendigo coming out of the same room with the snake skull. Two wendigos were looking back at him with ravenous eyes. Confused and terrified, he thought this was the end. He wholeheartedly believed that this would be the end. The end for the two Wendigos standing right in front of him. Five times his size, he believed a mere child like himself could defeat two huge and terrifying beasts standing before him. The fear subsided, and the adrenaline for survival kicked in. Kaleb quickly shoved his shaky hand into his baggy pants pocket.
