Strength of the Stronger

Night has fallen and night is full of darkness. "Demons chasing me! Demons chasing me!" he said. It was because he feared them that they chased him. And if they caught him he would be dead! "We want to take your sorry life! Take your sorry life!" they said. "You are not moral! You have no compassion!" Their eyes bulging! Their faces distorted; their hairy unsightly bodies bumping into each other as they chased him relentlessly; fueled by his fear of them! They were becoming stronger than any monster; dead or alive! Fear made his heart beat faster! Fear made his legs run faster! Fear made the hair stand up on his head! Fear made the back of his neck burn! Fear made his face distorted and ugly! But he was determined that he would not run out of breath! Realizing that where there's breath; there's life; and somewhere in life you must find courage; it's a thing no demon can relentlessly chase!
