0:00.0 | When I was 13 years old, I had an unforgettable experience in the woods near my home in northern Georgia. |
0:14.0 | I was exploring with three friends, one of whom entertained us with random stories as we wandered through the forest. |
0:23.4 | My friends decided to run ahead, laughing as they disappeared into the trees, leaving me behind. |
0:30.2 | I didn't mind. I never been one to run unless it was necessary. So I kept walking at my own |
0:36.7 | pace, soaking in the stillness of nature. |

1:47.4 | Years later, I moved with my mother to another part of northern Georgia, where I now take care of her. One Saturday morning, around 6 a.m., I got up early for work. I was half asleep, |
1:54.7 | and I threw on my clothes, and I stepped outside to lock the door. Just as I turned the key, a sound pierced the stillness. It wasn't a scream |
2:04.6 | or an animal's cry. It was a call, one I'd never heard before. The sound was deep and guttural, |
