Chapter 21
Placing the picture frame back in its place, I grabbed my notebook and sat on the window seat. I had actually discovered that I was able to concentrate a whole lot better there than if I was sitting on my desk. Go figure.
Resting my back against the wall behind me, I peered out at the forest in front of me. Even with the skies becoming a hue of gray, the forest still looked beautiful. Ominous, but beautiful nonetheless.
Before looking away, I noticed a dark figure emerge from the trees down below. I gave it a quick glance before looking back down at my notebook. A few seconds passed before my head snapped back at the figure. My eyes widened in surprise as I analyzed the rather large creature. It was staring right at me with its oddly familiar dark eyes.
