On a cold breezy night in the middle of old man forest in the middle of Southern Alaska. It was a bone chilling night, where the fog was so thick you could almost choke on it.

He kept walking about two hundred yards and seeing something kneeled over and crying. He turned the thing over and it was a small boy and it appeared that he had been wounded from a bullet. He swore under his breath that he would kill Ulrick if he had to go to the ends of the earth to get him back. He gave the boy some water and cleaned off the blood and asked the boy his name the boy said Doodle and Geyorge tried his his best to patch up his wound and in his mind he knew that Doodle would most likely die because he was hit in the chest and he was coughing up blood. Then he heard a gunshot and hid under a pile of fallen branches with Doodle. The bullets were whizzing right by their faces and they could feel the wind from the bullets going by them. Geyorge decided the best way out was back to the safety of his men so he grabbed Doodle and sprinted as fast as he could with the small boy on his back to the rendezvous of where he and his men were supposed to meet. They were there but they were all dead with at least five bullets in each of

The reason that the monster can be a protagonist is because he just wants compassion and companionship,…
