Lost Chased by a Beast
The gloomy night filled with full distress in the air as if the night grew suspense. When the moon opened up it was as if there was a creature lying beneath an oak tree ready for its dinner. In the still of night there at that moment there was a creepy mystic creature staring from above to its prey of the night. It seemed very pacient as it slowly moved one paw at a time in a pattern or sequence timely as if waiting for a moment to come. The creature had black fur and at the edge of it paws its claws very thin and sharp to catch its prey. Thus it had to have those aspects in its inner self to be considered the abstract of nature it really was. Indeed it was no lost puppy or cute pet animal, this creature was in fact a beast.

The human on the other hand had much to worry about and had no similarities to this beast whatsoever. It was a male. A skinny man around his early thirties with dark brown hair and dark brown eyes with some goodness inside of him. The male always wore a hand bag with him kind of like a womens bag although it was much different seen as he was a man. Maybe not a perfect one since he had committed a few sins, but he would be very close to being one if it were not for stealing that bag from his old friend or for cheating on his own wife with his best friends girlfriend. Those priminors started to build up the darkness inside although there was still much goodness, the darkness overcame and it was that darkness on that single night that attracted the beast.

As soon as the clock struck eleven all the lights in town went off. What the people did not know was it was not accidently it was meant to have happened just like the man was meant to have tripped once on a white tile on his way home from work on that thursday night after a long day of dealing with unpacient clients. He had a fate marked for him. A destiny that lied right in front of him. Although he never was a true believer in it really destiny and sometimes found a way

    That night, I once again woke up from my fitful sleep and decided to walk it off, but when I came downstairs, feeling the touch of the wooden handrail, and the pair of survivors on watch didn't wave back to me, or even blink. I exited the house, and the wind whistled as the world froze, and — suddenly there was a glimpse of someone darting through the streets. They were a cat - they moved lithely and disappeared from sight for a few seconds, then reappeared…

    Suddenly as if out of nothingness appeared a red eyed beast at the top of the wretched, steep hill we were attempting to scale. The wolf approached us with her steaming breath and her head low to the ground as if she was ready for the pounce. If we had run she would have reacted with great violence, so we kept our bodies and expressions as lifeless as a china doll. Her eyes were glowing like a fire replenishing itself; the eyes of a burning demon. Her coat was as grey as the fog that surrounded us, the beast froze corpse still, silent and motionless. It was a struggle to see. We could just see that the beast was among us. The brute still had made no move and the deep fog was thickening. It came to the point were we were blind in that we could not see any thing but the dull greyness of the…

    You could almost hear the souls of my fellow men screaming for mercy as the beast devoured every scrap of their bodies. He went through man by man by man in a matter of minutes with the most utterly disgusting noise of horrible manners. I could hear him getting closer and closer to where the place I lay on the cold, chilling ground, praying that I will not be joining the deceased souls of my fellow…

    Page 48: "It was already one in the morning; the rain pattered dismally against the panes, and my candle was nearly burnt out, when, by the glimmer of the half-extinguished light, I saw the dull yellow eye of the creature open; it breathed hard, and a convulsive motion agitated its limbs."…

    Fictional creatures and creations are a key of the fantasy genre. They allow the reader to be swept away into a mystical reality that fills them with not only wonder but fear. Creatures are used to convey elements of the story that are not directly written on the page. They have been used historically as metaphors to comment on an evil occurring in the real world. In Stephen King’s IT the creature symbolizes the fear of returning to your childhood. IT creates an exaggerated story of a group of childhood friends, reconnecting in their desolate hometown of Derry, Maine. The meeting brings them to IT. The monster appears to each of them in a unique way that brings up particularly unpleasant childhood experiences that have been forgotten except…

    Additionally, the moon is described as an “orange disk” (Roberts 19) whose rays lit the ravine “strangely”(Robert 19). The mention of the darkness and the strange moonlight create a distinct first impression of what is to come. For example, the child’s strife, the battle of man versus beast, and the “rapidly decaying” bodies of the panther cubs. The tone may be foreboding in terms of these events. Perhaps the darkness and the moonlight may connect yet again to Darwin (his connection between animal and human) in the sense that there is a sense of mourning for the cubs (and even the adult panthers). The reader may emotionally connect with the weeping child, but there is no denying that Robert’s provides for the reader a sense of mourning for the panthers and the decaying cubs. As discussed, man is simply a more cunning animal and so, there is a darkness and a mourning for the animal as well as the…

    In the beginning the beast was in everyone’s minds. Its presence could be felt when the island was described “Behind this was the darkness of the forest” (Golding, 10). The Beast was always on the island but not yet completely felt. Later on in the book, the Beast is foreshadowed in Jack’s band, “something dark was fumbling along” (Golding, 19). With…

    In the very beginning, the beast was something that only existed in the boys’ minds and practically only scared the littluns. As time passed by, it mutated into something much larger than any unknown creature could possibly be. They feared what they could not see in the dark and they were vulnerable as sunlight turned into darkness. When the sun set, their worries came lashing back at them. “Soon the darkness was full of claws, full of the awful unknown and menace” (99). It’s very ironic how multiple horrific events happen when the sun is no longer present like the killing of Simon; so daylight gave them assurance of safety. While Ralph and Jack’s hunters went hunting for the beast… “The sun was bright and danger had faded with the darkness” (108). They were concerned with the possibility of a monster lurking through the vast, unexplored island that could harm them. They’re even unsure of what the beast really is and where it comes from. “He says the beast comes out of the sea” (88). Even more horrifying, they feared each other even though they never really knew it themselves.…

    It’s the dead of winter. The clouds have quilted the ground and trees in fresh, glistening powder. You press your snowshoe into a mound of soft snow and breathe a lung full of brisk air. In the distance you hear the quick crunching of the ground. Raising your head, you catch a glimpse of a grey tail with underlying white. You slowly swivel your head back and forth, looking for whatever you may have seen. Once again you hear the footsteps, very quietly fading away into the distance. Seeing past all the evergreens and birches you notice eyes peering, not at you, but into your soul. They are prideful prairie grass colored circles, surrounded by thick black lines with a small black dots in the middle. Around the bright eyes there is white and grey fur, swirling and coming together at the black lines surrounding the yellow. He sits, watching you, the black dots studying you, closely and yours doing the same: both curious. Neither of you are fearful, neither of you are shaken, both of you study each other like biologists.…
