The hooded figures would not stagger in their goal of dragging the woman away to some unspoken and grisly fate. The five of them were as silent as carriers of Death, their grip only tightening as the woman continued to scream out and barter for her life. However, fate would have different plans for them as Donny strung up one of the hooded five. The remaining four turned to watch their brethren up high before turning back to their goal. They would not be stopped in their mission of justice and even if one fell, more were to follow in their wake.

There was no use in silencing the woman either. Who would care enough to defend her? Who would waste their time on her well being when they had their own lives to deal with? Some of the townsfolk were even cheering the cloaked figures, shouting cries to kill the heretic and burn her blood for the crimes she supposedly committed.

The four remaining figures were near a large well in the middle of the town when the shoutings of the new hunters made them turn slightly. They would protest all they wanted but the figures would not answer nor would they concern themselves in dropping their quarry. Instead, one of their own moved away from the pack and shuffled to meet Donny and Lillian head on.

The others turned away and continued in their dark task while the one left behind reared back and pounced on Donny first, pinning him to the ground. The hood was wrangled free and what was thought to be a man was not. Or rather, the creature had the body and stature of human but the entirety of its head was that of a foaming, rapid dog. 

Its black snout dribbled with snot while drool pooled around its hungry jaws. Its eyes were mad and parched, showing the slit pupils of a feral animal. The creature barked viciously as it wrestled Donny’s arms to the side, howling and snarling right in his face. Above, the first cloaked figure finally tore at the rope around its neck. With its hood parched it revealed a second dog-man, snarling viciously and eager to consume the flesh of these heretics. At once it pounced on Lillian, barking and biting out savagely in the attempt to punish her as well

The townsfolk watched on with placid silence.
