The Black Forest is a vast and scary jungle, located in southwest Germany
Schwarzwald
. As the name suggests, the forest is always dark even during the day because the sunlight is covered by very tall and dense trees. Almost no human dared to go in there.
But not today, in the Black Forest for the first time a young man was walking alone down the path there, past the thickets and tree roots protruding from the ground with only a small flashlight as light.
"Actually, where am I now?" Tristan asked himself. His handsome face looked very confused with sweat that was already pouring down his forehead.
Tristan looked around his eyes for a way out, but as far as the eye could see all he could see were tall trees with thick leaves, undergrowth, fallen leaves, and darkness. This forest is very scary, especially for Tristan who is alone there.
“Jeez, why can't I find my way back to camp?” Tristan grumbled while massaging his forehead which was starting to feel dizzy. The deeper he went into the black forest, the darker the atmosphere in the forest.
“Hengky… Kenan… Where are you guys? Please pick me up here!” Tristan called out the names of his friends who were camping with him.
Tristan is a young traveling lover who often comes to certain places that have natural beauty such as mountains, forests, waterfalls, valleys, and also beaches just for refreshing and enjoying the beauty of the natural panorama. Usually, Tristan goes with two of his friends who have the same hobby, then they set up a tent for a few days until they are completely satisfied enjoying this very beautiful natural treat.
As now Tristan came with Hengky and Kenan to camp, their destination was a spectacular mountain range in Baden-Württemberg, Germany. These mountains have very amazing beauty. But unbeknownst to them, apparently in the beautiful mountains, there is a forest that is scary like the Black Forest.
Today Tristan got an assignment to look for firewood in the forest, but he got lost. Instead of getting out of the forest and returning to camp, Tristan entered the Black Forest. The further he walked, the deeper he entered the Black Forest, which meant that it was increasingly difficult for him to find a way out, especially with the dark condition of the Black Forest.
"I'm tired, I've been walking for several hours but I can't find a way out of this forest either," Tristan complained. He sat down at the root of a big tree to rest for a while. His breath hitched with exhaustion.
At that moment, he suddenly heard a familiar roar in his ears. Tristan knew that it was Wolf's voice. As a traveler, Tristan was familiar with the voices of the beast stars that he often heard while camping. One of them is the sound of a wolf
“I'm sure there must be a lot of beast stars in this forest, not just wolves. That's why I have to be very careful," thought Tristan. However, he must survive until he can get out of this forest safely.
After feeling rested enough, Tristan got up to continue the journey. But suddenly he heard the sound of a dry twig snapping as if something had been trampled on. Tristan turned his head, he eared carefully to make sure there was nothing.
Then Tristan felt like he saw a flash of black shadows among the bushes, Tristan's heart was racing twice as fast, he couldn't deny that he was already starting to feel scared. Moreover, at that time he did not carry any weapons, the rifle he usually carried was left in the tent. Tristan can indeed defend himself, but still, he will not be able to face a pack of wolves.
"Who is that? Who is there?" Tristan shouted, his eyes scrutinizing his surroundings as he scanned his surroundings with the flashlight he was holding. Tristan sensed that the black shadow that had been hovering in the bushes wasn't a wolf or any other animal. Because the shape of the shadow is like a human body.
"Come out, face me. Don't be a coward who just hides behind the bushes, I'm not afraid of you!” Tristan exclaimed. Between curiosity and fear mixed into one, on the one hand, he was really scared and wanted to run as far as possible from that place. But on the other hand, he is also very curious, he wants to see the form of the creature.
Tristan wished it was a human, even a bad person. Because that means he's not the only human in this forest.
"We're here," said someone from behind. His voice sounded very cold and sinister.
Of course, Tristan immediately turned his head, how surprised he was that his guess was right. It was a human, not just one person but three men with bushy beards standing in front of him. At that time, Tristan had not had time to observe his interlocutor because he was too happy to meet other humans in this forest.
“It turns out that my guess is correct that you are human just like me. Finally, I was able to find a human in the middle of a scary forest like this," Tristan said. At least he could breathe a sigh of relief, even though the person in front of him might be a criminal.
"No, we are not human like you," said the man standing in the front. When he spoke, he saw two sharp teeth on his right and left.
Tristan's eyes and mouth were wide open, he was very surprised because this was the first time he had seen a human with such long and sharp fangs. Tristan had just calmed down a bit, now his heart was racing again, even faster than before.
After that Tristan started observing them to make sure they were human-like him. But he saw strange things that humans do not have in general. In addition to having sharp fangs, their fur is very thick and long, even though at that time they were wearing long black clothes, but their hands and feet which were full of thick brown hair could still be seen, their eyes were black, their gazes were very sharp, their faces were dark. very scary even though there is not too much hair there, lastly their posture is big and tall with long legs, a little different from the posture of ordinary humans.
"If you're not human like me, then what are you guys?" Tristan asked with a face that was starting to turn pale.
"We are werewolves that inhabit this forest," replied the man on the left.
"What? Werewolves?" Tristan couldn't believe it, how could there be a werewolf in this world. Isn't that just a fictional story in a novel?
"It seems that today we are getting great luck because we don't have to bother looking for prey, but the prey itself is approaching us," said the man standing in the front.
"That's right, besides that our prey this time is very delicious. It's been a long time since I've eaten human flesh and drank its blood," continued another. They smirked happily showing their sharp fangs, like hungry wolves, they were eager to eat Tristan.
“No, you can't make me your prey, no!” Tristan shouted as he backed away as the three werewolves had already started to approach him.
“Stop!! Don't come any closer, or I'll kill you guys,” Tristan screamed, he was very scared at that time.
“Humans are weak, it's impossible to beat werewolves like us. Get ready to be a fine meal for us.”
Tristan could see their hooves were getting longer, the three werewolves were ready to pounce on him. Whereas he couldn't do anything but dodge, judging from his posture alone they were much stronger than Tristan.
