THE FOOTPRINTS
These were not human footprints... These could only belong to some kind of wild animal. Having no other option, I gathered some courage and, started following the footprints. I could actually hear my own heart beat as i kept entering more and more into the dark, dense, damp woods. The hooting of the owls made the atmosphere more eerie . I kept walking until i came to the point where there was not any sign of fireflies even. By this time , the footprints also vanished. I stood there for few seconds, petrified. Finally I heard a familiar voice saying, "Thank you for coming". I was sure that it was the old man. I tried my best to figure out from where the voice was coming, but it was pitch dark. "We can have a great feast tonight...."said the voice again. Then I saw two sparkling light in the dark, oh my God it's a wild beast, and then it started to multiply in pairs.
