Grab the attacker.

Deciding that use of a weapon probably isn't necessary at this very moment, you rush over and grab the gruff looking man, wrapping your arm around his neck in a chokehold.

You dont intend to necessarily strangle him, but to keep him from attacking you or the younger guy. You're now kneeling behind the man as he sits on his ass, struggling and clutching at your arm to get you off him. He's breathing rapidly, to a point where it is kind of concerning why he's so amped up.

"L-Listen man, I'm not trying to hurt you!" You tell him, reinforcing your grip. The guy is a bit more built than you are, and you know it'll take a lot of effort to keep him like this for much longer, "Just relax!"

The man may as well be deaf because he doesn't seem to be listening to a word you said. He continues struggling and fighting against your grip, and its making you think it'd be better to just put him to sleep.

However, it catches you by surprise when his fingernails bare themselves into the flesh of your arm. You yell out in pain when those fingers rip into your skin as he drags them downward. This causes you to loosen your grip on him significantly, granting him enough time to get free and tackle you onto the ground.

He now has you pinned like the kid before you. Your good arm has a grip on one of his wrists to keep it from attacking you, while your damaged arm holds his throat, keeping his head and face away from you. However, since your arm is damaged and steadily losing blood now, it doesn't have much strength to hold him at bay for long. His face is closing in on yours, and it seems as though he wants to... bite you?

Now that you see him face to face for the first time, you notice a lot of odd things with this man. His eyes are bloodshot. His eye color is a very unnatural shade of gray. He looked a little older than you though, but he was bald with a full brown beard. The most bizarre part of it all was how he seemed to be growling, and hissing at you. Like some kind of animal. He kept chomping his teeth too, signifying that if he gets any closer, he's going to bite your face off. What kind of sick person is this?!

Just in the nick of time, however, a loud *PING* noise was heard, and the man flew off of you. You hastilly look up and can see the kid you helped out earlier with your baseball bat in his hands. He offers you a hand to help you up and you accept it.

"Jesus..." You groan while you both look at the now **** biker looking man on the ground. His eyes were closed and there seemed to be some blood pooling out from his head, despite the rain trying to wash it away.

"Dude... I fucking owe you one." Says the guy beside you, handing you your bat, "You saved my ass. I don't know what was up with that guy."

You look at your arm and can see four deep lines in the backside of your forearm. Blood was spilling out of it pretty fast, so you hold it between your side and your other arm to hopefully slow the bleeding, despite how much more it made it hurt.

"What the hell... why was this guy going berserk like that? Is he on ****?!" You ask.

"Shit, I don't know. I-I was just walking to my front door from my driveway and then he chased me for like half a mile and-"

"John! John, baby, are you alright?!" You hear your fiancè's voice call out from behind you. You and the stranger turn around to see her running towards you in a robe. She probably saw everything from the window.

"I'm fine, hun! Go back inside, everything is--"

Your eyes widen when you hear a loud scream from beside you.

You look over and can see the kid getting the side of his neck bitten into by the man that seemed to be **** just a few minutes ago.

"A-AHH! GOD, GET HIM OFF ME!"

Your heartbeat starts to race when you see a chunk of flesh taken out of the kids neck by the man's teeth. The whole sight of it all stunned you to the point where it took you a while to react.

You grip your bat and take a nice downward swing at the man's head, which caused him to drop and release his hold on the person he just took a bite out of. The kid falls to the ground as well, but the assaulter still seems to be kicking.

Without hesitation, you hover right above the man and bring that bat down on his face as hard as you possibly could.

The sound of steel shattering bone echoed throughout the area.

For some reason, everything in your mind went quiet once you looked over the aftermath of everything that just happened. There's a bleeding and dying kid on the ground beside you. There's a man just below you with a shattered face. Blood from your arm, the grizzly man, and the kid stained the ground around you, mixing with the rain.

You couldn't hear the gurgling sounds from the kid. You couldn't hear Christine's screams of terror from behind you. You couldnt even hear the sirens from the police cars and ambulances that rushed over around you. All you heard was white noise. Time seemed to have been moving in slow motion for you and you didn't know what to do.

Just as an officer pointed a gun at you and told you to put your hands behind your head, your world began to spin. Your vision seemed to blur, and it started to feel as though you were falling.

Not a second later, you black out.
