Fifty-Nine

I am running through the wood again, beasts on both sides and behind, chasing me and the small bundle in my arms. I run and run. I skid in the dead leaves as I have to quickly change directions as a beast steps out in front of me. I protect the bundle in my arms as my feet slip again and again until I finally make it back to my feet and take off running again... I then hear it, the loud howl in the distance telling me he is coming, fear close to pure terror runs through me. I whimper as I try to run faster, only to skid to a stop once more at the edge of a cliff... It's then I hear his voice,

"Yasmine, don't do it... Yasmine, please!!"

I look around franticly, slowly taking steps backwards, getting closer and closer to the edge as I whisper,

"Zachariah..."

I then see the one responsible for the loud howl, and the beasts that surround me...

VALENTINO...

I step back, not wanting to be in his possession once again, and scream...

"ZZAACCHHAARRIIAAHH!!!!"

I sit up still screaming;
