Excerpt from The Awakening:

With my body cooled down, I pick up the 30-30 and move once again toward the destination of our previous meeting site. I am all too aware that I am the only moving presence in the area, the silence is total. This has been the case so many times previously, that I am not surprised when the hairs on my arms and back begin to prickle. A chill raises a rash of gooseflesh on my back and chest. I notice I have stopped breathing, straining to hear something in the eerie and profound silence.

Without any preamble or warning, I find myself face to face with Demarcus.

I reactively flick the safety off on the 30-30, but standing dwarfed in the Bigfoot’s presence, it suddenly feels like a wimpy pea shooter instead of a weapon.

I do not believe I would ever shoot anyway, unless I absolutely have to. I’ve had a longstanding promise that I would only do so in self-defense.

Demarcus is motionless, standing about ten yards away.

His size alone is impressive enough to instill terror, but I hold my ground and meet his stare. Any aggressive move toward me and I am prepared to let the bullets fly. I am very conscious that I would have only fractions of a second to land a fatal shot before his big strides would overtake me.

“Demarcus,” I offer. “I have no idea why you were exiled here to our world, but I have no fight with you.”

Demarcus slowly swivels his head and looks about.
