Half an hour had passed give or take, time was hard to tell in the middle of the woods, not like Devin knew any different. He was watching the tree line all things considered he was very vulnerable sitting in the middle of a clearing. At this point Devin was considering one of two options, take a chance by making a move potentially risking the beasts' wrath, or stay where he was even if it was exposed. With a sigh Devin rubbed his temples, these decisions were never easy, seriously one mistake is all it toke. 

Branches snapped nearby, it seemed that the beasts finally found him. There were four of them and as Devin thought they were one wolves until,of course, their bodies were mutalated. Their eyes shone in the dim light of the campfire, even from this distance Devin could smell their rancid breath. He kicked snow over the small fire, and then just simply ran there was no other choice. Unfortunately he didn't know the area having just wandered here, so he was running blind, behind him he heard the howls and panting of the beasts as they chased him. Devin weaved through the trees, and jumped over various obstacles in his way. 

He passed into another clearing before skidding to a complete stop, in front of him the land ended only dropping off into a cliff. Devin peered over the edge the fall was way too great to risk jumping, maybe a fiftteen to twenty meters high. He silently swore to himself he was trapped, a deadly fall in one direction, and a pack of beasts in the other. Still one positive was that the beasts could only come from the one direction, meaning he had a bottleneck, a poor one but still a bottleneck. 

Devin dropped to one knee, he tightly gripped his rifle staring down the iron sights. He breathed deeply, attempting to slow his breaths after running. The first beast come into view, sprinting straight out of the forest, Devin held his breath then fired. The gunshot echoed through the trees, the bullet found its mark burrowing into the beast's skull, it dropped without a sound. Expertly Devin pulled back the bolt to chamber the next round, the second beast followed closely after its fallen comrade. Again he fired and again the bullet flied true killing the other beast. Devin chambered the next round, however the other two beasts held back for whatever reason, perhaps due to fear, or maybe because they knew Devin was capable of fighting back now.
