Ten years ago…
"Come on, Zed!" Parish called afar.
Zed and Mike were hurrying towards him. Parish was standing in between two trees. It made Mike wonder where they were headed. It was dangerous, and Zed's father had warned them to stay away from the woods. But that was been their center of attention today, especially Parish's. He had been present when Zed's father had told them stories about the woods. It was the hunting ground for the humans who were their natural predators. Many weresnakes who had wandered into the woods had barely made it back alive. Those who had eventually returned had gruesome stories to tell. However, those stories meant nothing to Parish now as he called after his friends once more.
"Hurry up guys!" He urged them.
