Friend or Foe

As the group was busy dealing with the white-furred monkeys, a great howl was heard in the distance.

"What was that!" Max said.

The howl wasn't ordinary and sounded like it had come from a very powerful beast or at least a large one. Suddenly loud footsteps could be heard coming towards them. From the forest, the sounds of the trees being uprooted and falling down were heard, then a fairly large figure could be seen.

As Springett sliced another monkey in half she turned her head to have a look. The large figure was coming closer and closer and it was moving at great speed.

"Damn it, do we have to deal with another beast now of all times."

The figure finally exited out of the forest and was now in full view. The figure was a wolf, large in size and a black horn sticking form the top of its head. Around its four paws, it had metallic claws.

"That thing is huge!" Max shouted.
