tw scary monster and violence!

The creature's pupils are horizontal like that of an ungulate, but the breathing that came from the shadows sounded more like that of a bear. What emerged from the darkness of the alley and into the dimly lit streets, however, was no bear.

The beast towered over Ianto. Its long face was covered in dark hair and devoid of any sort of lips, exposing its many, many teeth and curling tusks. Its crown of black antlers sat high upon its head, creating spindly shadows upon the ground in front of it that seemed to reach out toward Ianto like prying claws. Its body looked emaciated, all ribs and tough skin and wispy strands of black hair, but it seemed to stand strong as ever on back legs with cloven hooves. Adorning its back, a pair of leathery, bat-like wings.

This monster, brazenly standing in the middle of town with no fear of recourse, only stood there a moment. It was as if it were giving Ianto a moment to observe its countenance. Then, it lunged, all claws and teeth and tusk and horn. It moved with practice purpose. To hunt. To kill. To feed.
