The Huntsman’s “Mistress”

There was once a forest that laid just a short walk from a small village. There was said to be a mysterious figure who lurked the woods, searching for food for her forest friends. This figure was rumored to take the form of her prey after killing it and merging into the species looking for more potential prey.

The Huntsman quickly gathered himself and aimed his rifle at the vulnerable wolf. Just as the Huntsman began to pull the trigger he suddenly found himself feeling twenty pounds lighter. As he glanced down, he noticed the ground was covered in his bright, vividly red intestines and laying on top of them, laid the Huntsman’s freshly sharpened knife. As the Huntsman slowly looked in front of him he laid face to face with the hollow metal barrel that which was pointed at the wolf just seconds before. The last sight the huntsman would see was the orange burst of flame out of the end of the hollow barrel. The huntsman fell to the ground and the red hooded figure picked up the Huntsman’s knife, skinned him, and cut his body into small bite sized chunks that which the hooded figure fed to the wolf. The wolf proclaimed “hmmm freshly killed, my favorite, thank you Red Riding Hood” Red Riding Hood then gathered up the Huntsman’s skin, hemmed the open abdominal cavity that which the Huntsman’s entrails once protruded out from and placed the skin into the Huntsman’s …show more content…

Just as the coat transformed, Red Riding Hood morphed into the Huntsman and prepared herself to meet her new wife. Red Riding Hood opened the door and called out for the Huntsman’s wife.
“Honey”
“I am in the bedroom Huntsman”
Red Riding Hood entered the room
“I have brought you your pelt my love”
“OOOHHH Huntsman, this pelt is marvelous it is just what I wanted”
“I will do anything for you my love” Red Riding Hood responded as she plotted how to acquire the prey for her dear starving bzou forest
