Jim Butcher Quotes
Something Was Trying To Dig Its Way Beneath The Wall And Into The Garage, Practically Right Underneath My Butt. I Felt A Chill Of Fear, Followed Swiftly By Anger At The Thing That Had Added To Already Overabundant Flow Of Adrenaline. I Clutched My Make-shift Weapon In Hand And Moved To Crouch Over The Source Of The Disturbance, Lifting In Preparation To Strike At Whatever Came Through.
I Saw It In The Dimness, And There Was No Mistaking The Shape. A Paw, A Huge Canine Paw, Scrabbled At The Earth, Digging Out A Shallow Hole Beneath The Wall, Frustrated By Bits Of Concrete That Got In The Way. Between Shots, I Could Hear Animal Sounds Outside, Panting Whimpers Of Eagerness, It Seemed. Whatever Was Out There Wanted To Dig Its Way Inside, And Wanted It Bad.
"Dig This," I Muttered, And Swung The Wrench Down On The Paw, Hard.
