My Hockey Alpha
I was cornered.
While the skeleton continued to advance on me, I shut my eyes and shook my head.
“This isn’t real… This isn’t real…”
The sound of bones rattling toward me was replaced by the sound of those very bones being kicked to the floor.
I opened my eyes to see a large figure in the dark, wearing a hoodie with the hood up, standing over the skeleton as it writhed and kicked on the floor. It swiped a bony hand at the figure and slashed it in the thigh, but the figure retaliated by picking the skeleton up by its throat -- well, where its throat would have been, if it had flesh.
