Not So Friendly Beginnings
Another trap snapped up, missing Black Shadow by an inch. This was the fourth one within a small stretch of land, an obvious sign of life. He would find this person if it was the last thing he did. A close examination of the trap showed a small wire leading away from him. He grabbed the end studying it, trying to see if he could figure out what could have made such a destructive piece of work. A quick pull made the wire go tense, it was attached to something.
Black Shadow's senses went into overdrive. There was a crack ahead of him and the sight o a tree being torn to pieces caught his eye. He reacted quickly, diving to his left. The tree slammed into the ground just a few feet from his legs. Whoever had set these traps was out to kill him.
There was a quick crack behind him, and then a soft voice. "Dang..."
Black Shadow instantly moved, sending an arrow in the direction of the voice. He heard the familiar sound of the iron hitting a tree, but lost the voice. Where are you?
