And then, Hope heard it too.A howl. It's dark, murderous. It was close, nearly there.
Afterward, Hope could see it, those red eyes and sharp teeth all molding into one, black mass. A mass of howling reverberating through the clearing and Hope's head.
The dark mass swirling around Hope and Carina, who became more and more tense. She reached a small thing from her hips and put it on her lips. Maybe it was a trumpet? Hope didn't know what it was, as she was too worried at the black mass around them.
As soon as Carina put that small thing on her lips, there was a melodious sound that could be heard, rung through the clearing for a few seconds before Carina put it down and stomped her hooves aggressively, as an attempt to scare them away.
It brought nothing but another failed attempt, as the massive black cloud-like started to break away into individual shadows with four legs, barbed tails, long fangs and red eyes.
