Sugar plums and faerie dust

The rustle of the blades was what Pidge was focused on, panic clouding his mind and his breath coming in sharp gasps as he pushed himself to the edge of the reeds. Stumbling forwards, he prepared himself to run, his mind not realizing the danger he was in until it was too late. A snarl jolted him, and he glanced up, just fast enough to see the larger creature lunging at him. His legs pushed him backwards in a weak attempt to escape, but he wasn't fast enough. Legs connected with his chest and pushed him backwards, against the ground, causing a wince until realization set in. The larger creature had caught him anyways, and he could feel the weight pressed down to keep him from escaping. It didn't stop him from trying, though, his chest heaving from the failed escape attempt, trying to twist away from the creature. After a moment or two, he went limp, the fight escaping him as he stared up into the crimson eyes of the odd creature towering over him. The creature lowered her head, and Pidge caught sight of the saliva dripping from her fangs. Another wave of panic went over him as the creature's saliva dripped down onto his face. Any other time, an instinct for cleanliness would make him feel uncomfortable, but fear overruled it. The creature moved her face closer, the tip of her snout touching his nose, and he felt his paws jolt weakly at the new movement. A snarl rumbled in the creature's chest, breath like a breeze against the fur on his cheek, and Pidge found a quiet, fearful whimper escaping him as the creature spoke in the same tone it had earlier. Fear kept him from truly answering, his jaws opening but any words that may have made their way were stuck in his throat. It was the second question that urged a response out of him. "Please don't hurt me." His voice was high pitched with fear, shaking with the panic that he felt so strongly. He couldn't look away from the creature, his own light blue eyes staring up as he hoped that this canine would take pity on him and let him go. |
