Reading Notes Week 14: The Dog and the Corpse

A man decided to go hunt in the wilderness. He brought his favorite dog along with him. On their hike, they stumbled upon a graveyard. A ghost was standing a ways in front of them, hovering a foot above the ground. Suddenly the ghost charges the man but is stopped after the dog bites its calf. The dog and ghost fight while the man runs away. Finally, the dog defeats the ghost and chases after his master. When they both arrive back to the village, the dog attacks the man. The man had abandoned him with a ghost! For the next year, the dog would growl at the man. Finally one day the dog attacked again and it was killed.

He had never struggled to catch his prey before, but ever since he was kicked out of his pack, life has just been a battle for survival. Sure, he wasn’t the best hunter, but he could always rely on his pack mates. Now he has no one. No home. And most importantly no food. Wolf managed to find a hollowed out log the other day that he has been taking shelter in. Tomorrow will be better he thought. Wolf’s stomach growled violently as he struggled to fall asleep.  He awoke late in the day. No worries, he hunts best at dusk. Wolf slowly got up and let out a big yawn. It was time to find a meal. He knew of a farmstead close by but never approached it in the past. The pack was terrified of that place. There were these mutated wolves that guarded the tasty meals on legs. Many of his friends have been lost to those creatures. Normally it would be a suicide mission going alone, but he was desperate....
