Keep out of the Charlion’s path!
The new town I visited on the weekend seemed amazing. But the place turned strange after dusk. All the shops were closed. It looked like there was a mist forming everywhere.
I looked around, everyone was heading home, shutting their windows in fear. Then I heard it. A loud deafening shriek.
"It's the Charlion."
"The What?"
"The Charlion." To be fair I should have paid attention to the signs: WATCH OUT 4 THE CHARLION.
I heard the beating of wings in the distance. I thought I was a goner. What saved me was another beast which appeared out of nowhere.
