  Lucille watched it explode as the jeep headed back toward the beach.

  “Direct hit,” she said.

  “I hope that was the last one,” Benton said.

  “Me too,” Lucille said. “Me too.”

  Chapter Six

  Somewhere in Canada

  Owen followed his coonhound deeper into the woods. It had picked up the scent of their prey and had been following it for over twenty minutes.

  “Come on, eh. Find it already,” Owen said impatiently.

  The coonhound stopped suddenly, frozen in fear.

  “What did you find? A buck?”

  Owen pushed the brush to the side exposing a large hole in the ground. As he was looking downward, he lost his footing and fell into the hole. He landed and hit the back of his head on a rock. As he was regaining his consciousness, a large cat the size of a bear stared at him licking its lips. Three other large size cats stood behind it. Before he could react, the cat ripped his neck completely off and swallowed it.

  The coonhound ran away with one of the cats in pursuit.

  I am a science fiction & horror writer from Valparaiso, Indiana. I also love to write horror stories about zombies and cats. I am also a political satirist. In 1985 I wrote my first short story: "The Day It Rained Candy." In 1994, I published my first short story: "The Night Of the Living Redheads." I am currently writing horror short stories for my next horror anthology: “Musings From a Demented Mind.”
