Chapter 32 Attacker

• There was a thundering crash that originated from somewhere just outside of Alexa's line of sight. It was a cacophonous sound that resonated all around her as if it bounced off the nearby trees. That clamorous reverberations pulled at a memory which was buried deep within the crevices of her brain and made her wince as if her head had begun to split into two.
• The redhead tore herself out of her aimless musings and snapped to attention spinning around in fright. Fear-filled eyes searched the wooded area she had reluctantly become accustomed to. Enlarged electric eyes scanned the darkness seeking out for the source of the sound which frightened her. If Alexa were to look back on her decision, she could honestly say she wished she hadn't.
• Adrenaline had made itself at home in her veins intermittently during her long trek and in that moment was no different. The organ in her chest threatened to give out on her as accelerated almost painfully in response to her fear. As her eyes adjusted to the darkness, she was finally able to see what had put her body into such a state of terror.
