Chapter 509 - The Shadow in the Forest

The night was dark and a strange rustling was coming out from the forest at the southern side of Eastern State. The birds quieted as an unknown creature slipped between the trees. A wild hen immediately scurried from her nest and made her escape. The shadow locked onto its target and pounced. Its claws grabbed the hen's tail feather. The hen clucked. She allowed her feathers to be torn. Then she flapped her wings and disappeared into the bush. The shadow was about to follow when it tripped on a rotten branch on the ground. It lost its pursuit.
