Melody backed away from the one dog. She was shivering, this time not from the cold but a scared shiver. “Uh… T…Tom” Melody said nervously. Tom lay on the floor wounded, a dog had attacked him but it moved away from Tom and walked towards Melody. Tom wanted to help, one could see that with out difficulty but Tom was badly wounded with a deep bite in his leg and arm. Another dog appeared from the left and she now had three dogs walking towards her, slowly she backed away trying not to make any sudden moves. Melody looked at the dogs; they were growling viciously with their huge, white teeth showing. Melody was surprised they didn’t just attack her, they just moved towards her like they were capturing their unwary prey. A tear fell down and she started to sing softly to herself “lo…lovely d..ay, isn’t..t a lo..vely day” she now couldn’t go back any further for she was now against a tree. She bent down slowly, keeping her eyes on the dog as she felt around on the ground. Next to her she found a sharp stick. She felt it… it was thick and wouldn’t break easy.
The wild dogs ran towards her, all three of them. Melody couldn’t move for she was so frightened. She lifted her stick and started to whack around her, trying to make the dogs back away but it only made them angrier. There eyes looked even scarier and their growls grew louder.
Melody jumped “my knife!” she exclaimed. She took out her dagger and held it to the air. A slightly wounded Ivy ran to where Melody was with a dagger of her own. Ivy jabbed her dagger into the one wild dog, not killing it but harming it. Melody stabbed one of the other dogs too, it fell to the ground. The last standing dog growled loudly and viciously and jumped onto Melody holding her down. Ivy screamed as she saw the huge dog attack Melody. A frightened Melody lay too scared to actually understand what was happening, where she was and what to do. Melody entered a dreamy world for two seconds but it felt like a life time to Melody. She saw clouds and flowers, muffins and the faces of her brothers…
