Work Text:
Walking at night, through the deserted streets, being illuminated only by the light of the lampposts and the moon, The night is cold, dark in spite of the yellow light of the lampposts, The truth is I'm used to walk at this hour, I don't know why, maybe because I'm an idiot.
Then I hear something, I don't know what it is but I decide to look back, I don't see anything, maybe it was my imagination or something, so I continue my walk.
I'm alone, what worries me most are thieves or some crazy drug addict,
But then I hear things, The barking of dogs mixed with animal sounds, by instinct I decide to speed up my pace at the same time I hear something, I don't know how to describe it, but it sounds like a howl, guttural and hoarse at the same time, And that's when I see it in front of me.
It's a dog, or something like one, But it's tall, it's so tall that not even the lamp posts can illuminate it well and even if it's surrounded by light, it seemed to give off a darkness without any form, It was thin, thinner than a stick, whose shape reminds me of a monkey, Its limbs are abnormally long and also bend in impossible ways and you could hear its bones creaking.
His face has a human shape, or childish, his colour, I don't know what colour, because it is always changing from black to red as if he had no definite colour.
Then, it begins to "howl" because more than a howl, it is the mixture between a dog howl and the cry of a human being, I swear that I felt sympathy for the animal, caress it and hug it, I wanted to help it, but fear invaded me, I remained motionless and it left at the same time that the ground shook with every step it took whose footsteps seemed like thunder.
I still think of that creature, sometimes I would like to comfort it, but I've already lost my chance.
This story will only be available on Ao3, not on other fanfic sites where I usually post, thanks
