Opened the door
Into a nightmare
Wish I could I could go back home

Jae-Yeong would be lying if he said he wasn't nervous about going out into the woods. He was so used to them. He knew them like the back of his hands. They were his backyard and he knew he didn't really have to be that afraid. He knew his way home. He knew that he could roar and his family would come running. But he didn't need to. He wasn't doing anything out of the ordinary.
In shorts and a t-shirt, Jae had decided to go for a run. He had his ipod strapped to his arm and his headphones plugged in. They were playing on the quietest setting before it would be muted. He didn't like loud noises. This way, he was also allowed to hear the sounds going on around him. He wasn't dumb enough to run without knowing what was going on around him.
He was never a really big runner but he knew that even he had to stay active. He was a tiny boy and gained very little weight, but he had to get up and go. He loved the smells of the woods. Loved hearing the birds over the sounds of Matt Nathanson singing "Mercy".
The sound was just switching when he heard the crunching of leaves and knew he wasn't alone. Something was hunting him. That thought actually frightened him. He just ran faster. It wasn't even funny that his ipod began to play "Run Boy Run" by Woodkid. He was not up for dying today. Not ever. It actually hurt his chest to keep going so quickly, but he could smell human. He foolishly believed that if he could find this person, whatever was after him would leave him alone.
He felt the impact with the ground before he even registered that he had been taken down. The howl shook every bone in his body and he never thought anyone would actually scare him more than hunters. Werewolf. There was a werewolf about to rip out his throat.
