Lily's eyes widened, her voice filled with fear as she pointed to a spot just behind Jackson, her face looking like she'd just seen a ghost.
Lying on the ground, Jackson looked up, his eyes mirroring a creature resembling a hound.
Jackson blinked, immediately sat up, and turned his head to see a Border Collie-sized dog-like animal, its tongue hanging out, panting heavily, eyes full of wariness.
It was as if they had trespassed into someone else's territory. Jackson tensed, quickly grabbing the axe beside him, and looked warily at the hound in front of him.
"What do we do now? It's so aggressive!"
Lily stood behind Jackson, her hands tightly clutching his clothes, her palms clammy with sweat. If she hadn't noticed earlier, would they have already been attacked by this hound?
