Does a bear - or whatever that is - shit in the woods?
I look over the car at Aaron and wonder how he didn’t beat the asshole that did this to his car to a bloody pulp. Well, maybe he did. After Richie and his kids it’s Aaron’s car in his heart. He is psycho protective over all of them… not that I would say that to his face.
“Well, I can send someone out with all the proper tools,” the look on his face is clear that he expects me, not someone, “I mean I can come out with the proper tools, but it will take awhile… the fuck was that?!”
The sound of shattering glass and screams has us both running into the house. Aaron is screaming out for Richie who is screaming for Aaron to get Gracie. I can see Richie and a bunch of their kids huddled behind him in the dining room and… what is that?!
Aaron is running across the kitchen towards a… a dog? It’s big - tall, looks like a starving - bear? Gracie is backed into a corner looking up at it defiantly! Aaron grabs hold of it, that’s when I see it’s face.
I’m shocked and just, just standing there with my mouth hanging open as this thing tries to throw Aaron off. It’s when he yells for Gracie to run that I realize she isn’t running for Richie, but past me towards the back door. She is so small though and the doorknob is too much for her. I step back to help her, but that's when the thing turns and looks at me.
I feel the hair on the back of my neck stand up. Aaron is doing his best to take the thing down screaming at Richie to get something or maybe it's someone... all I know is Gracie is behind me and this thing ain't getting her! Reaching back I place my hand on her tiny shoulder, "Stay behind me sweetie."
