When I first saw it I was as mentioned looking along the ground or about a foot about the ground for a black and white tail. Instead I saw what at first glance before my eyes sharpened, was a shaggy pair of tree trunks that being from the Kansas growing up along the Missouri border there were a lot of Hickory trees with what is called the shaggy bark. Those trees are about as creepy as a forest of trees can get when it comes to mere appearances and these two tree trunks looked oddly out of place considering we were no where near the place that I knew those trees to grow. My mind was still putting all this together when one of the tree trunks moved and then the other and I realized they were coming towards me not going away. My line of sight followed those tree trunks up to see they were attached to each other by means of a large torso that was heaving in and out and then I saw the big hands hanging down below the thing’s waist and even before my eyes had climbed up to see what kind of face was attached to this horror of a body pummeling at us; I was screaming at my girlfriend to get up and get moving and I said the bathrooms and she got up and we both sprinted the probably ten or so yards to where the bathrooms were at and thank God there was a trash can in the girls bathroom that actually fit perfectly between where the door opened and the back wall of the entrance to that little bathroom. It didn’t completely shut the bathroom door however and that thing crashed into it slamming the door into the trashcan which had to be laid on its side to be a proper door block. next page |  |
