CLYDE STARED out of the window, watching as the dark terrain passed by. His body lurched with the truck as it hit a large bump, which only made his stomach churn more. Shane concentrated on the road from beside the teenager, his eyes only focused on the road in front of him as he gripped the wheel tightly. Clyde was the opposite of the seemingly calm Shane, trembling as sweat laced his forehead from how sick he felt.

The night replayed in his head over again and again, never ceasing. The snarling growls and the screams as the poor hunter was shot in the leg and torn apart.

It was the first time they really stared at each other since the events at the high school, almost forcing them to confront the horrors that occurred there.
