Lost Episodes #3

For a spell I wrote pure horror with a dash of romance. Some of, in my opinion, best works are of the horror variety. This one is quite old and very short but lovely at the same time. The inspiration for this one was the movie The Decent, again old but a fairly decent movie. I liked the concept of being in a cave of sorts with wild and mutated creatures lurking about. I also had, had an awesome vision clear in my mind for this one. Hope you enjoy!

He looked around pushing a few strands of hair out of his face. His nose upturned he sniffed the air, Blood he thought panicking. He clenched his fingers into the dirt feeling it give way easily. Trying to adjust his eyes to the darkness of where ever he was he blinked rapidly for a minute or two, though it seemed like a life time had passed before he was able to see even a hint of movement. Attempting to get his bearings he inched forward on his hands and knees. Placing his right hand in front of him he felt something cold. A rock maybe he thought. Upon closer exploration of his hand he felt the hollows of her cheek and the soft fullness of her lips he had once lost himself in through tender kisses. A feverant panic began to rise within him making his stomach flip and his bones quake with fear. Searching for a pulse he let his hand slide down her neck, over her collar bone and rest on her left breast plate. A weak thumping relieved some of his fears and tension as he leaned down searching for her hot breath on his moist skin. She was so cold, but alive he kept telling himself in the depths of his panicked mind. Grasping her shoulders he pulled her close to his toned but strained body. He heard a clicking sound but his senses mislead him so he was unable to determine where or what was making the subtle sound. Something was moving to his left, oh god, what is that? He thought and he instinctively pulled her closer to his body, melding their skin as if to become one. A snarl came from above him and as he looked up, hot sticky fluid dripped onto his lips. He ran his tongue over them and tasted the familiar taste of metal, blood.
