As Yuri backed away from the glowing tombstone, it began to pulsate. A horrible feeling welled up in the pit of his stomach. He shook his head a bit, before looking at the tombstone again. It seemed to move and change shape, but Yuri convinced himself nervously that it was just a trick of the light.
“Heh heh, wouldn’t it be hilarious if somethin’ crawled outta there?” He asked no one in particular, the pitch of his voice wavering. That’s what happens in his nightmares, so why not? This place was his nightmare. The tombstone then glowed brighter, and the sound of Yuri’s own heartbeat filled his ears. Yuri covered his ears and shook his head, waiting for the monsters to appear. The sound quickly became so intense, it brought him to his knees. Then, with a tremendous roar, it stopped.
Taking his hands off his head, Yuri looked up and immediately stumbled back. What stood before him was no ordinary monster. It had the head of a tiger but stood on two legs and was easily taller than Yuri was. Its thin arms stretched almost to the ground, and the black and green patterns in its fur made the creature look grimy and disgusting. Yuri looked it over a few more times, then scowled, gritting his teeth. This must be… He thought before jumping to his feet. “All right, you freakin’ monster! Let’s go!” He shouted, putting his fists up. The creature replied with another roar and charged its opponent.
