Steve was in the woods taking a walk. It was early enough in the day that he figured it would be safe. He had his phone on him just in case he needed it, but he didn't think he would. He just walked along, not really paying attention to anything in particular. He let his mind wander, thinking about whatever came up. He started thinking about Buffy. She was cute and stronger than a normal human and she knew about battle, to an extent. He had some things in common with her and he knew that she definitely didn't mind his age. But then there was Abi. Smart and funny and cute. Good with kids. She'd said she didn't care about his age either. He sighed, running his fingers through his hair. The fact that his senses weren't currently enhanced meant that he missed the sounds of something moving through the trees. Something sneaking toward him. It wasn't until a branch snapped that he stopped, listening carefully. His blue eyes scanned the forest, trying to see if he could pick out what it was. He finally managed to spot the thing, but it was too late. It roared loudly and was on top of him before he had a chance to run. |
