Do not fear, Dylan.  I am sent to keep vigilant watch over you.

You will be safe as you embark upon your journey.


Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace
 whose mind is stayed on thee:
  because he trusteth in thee.
(Isaiah 26:3, KJV)

"It's him, Amber!  I know it's him!"

"Dylan, I need you to be absolutely still, okay?"

"Amber, I'm so scared!"

"I know, Dyl."  

"I saw the movie.  I know what he can do."

"Huh?  Movie?"

"You know, the one about the fight in the woods."

"Fight?"

"Yeah, the vampires were fighting with the werewolves!"

"Oh, I see.  So you think that's--"

"Jacob!  Jacob the werewolf!"

"Okay, Dyl.  I want you to give him your best smile, okay?  Maybe he just wants to be friends!"

"Oh, I'm too scared to smile.  I want to run, but my legs won't move!"

"I know, Dyl.  Just try your best.  Big smile!  Okay?"

"Oh, alright.  How's this?"

What were Dylan and Amber seeing on the path home?  What was filling Dylan's heart with such dread?
