Coincidence, is it? 2

The only thing that came out of my mouth was, "Run..... run..... run.... if you want to live." That is what my instinct told me, yelling at me, in fact,and I told it to the strange girl standing opposite me, and without looking back again, I started running. Just one look at their eyes was enough for me to understand that we are the prey here, and the only reason they came to a halt was to figure out if we were a predator or prey, and it took them only a few seconds to figure that out.

Physically, I am not sure if we can outrun those things, but when your life is on the stake, you can perform a miracle. Yeah, and the adrenaline will also help as a boost. I became aware recently that my body had changed. Why and how I still don't have an answer for that, but I think that, personally, I will be able to outrun them, but I am not sure about the girl with me, if she can do it or not.

Apparently, keeping up with my speed was not as much of an issue as I was afraid of, in no time, even I noticed she was ahead of me by at least two steps. I have no idea why I found that funny, there is nothing funny about the situation we are in, on the contrary, it is really scary. Two huge beasts are chasing us, each one of them are almost the size of an elephant. We have no idea how to escape them. So the question is, why do I find the woman running in front of her life is funny, although there is nothing funny about it.

While I was thinking nonsense, I saw another silhouette a few hundred meters ahead of me, I couldn't make out what it was, but it looked like a human to me. The girl running in front of me also saw it, I guess, because she hesitated for a split of a second, and I reached her pace. We were running in the same direction but not side by side; there were around fifteen meters between us on my right side.

Still chasing us from behind, the two beasts didn't decrease the distance between us. Although I was running with the maximum speed I could run with, if the distance decreased, I am not sure if I have any more speed on me that I can add.

That is another woman, and she saw us. She was holding a sword in her hand, a short sword, in fact, and we didn't slow down. Obviously, she saw the two beasts chasing behind us, and she didn't hesitate and started running also, although the way I saw it, she looked like someone who was ready to fight from her pose, but changed her mind as soon as she saw what was chasing us.
