Devil's Point 03

It continued to get louder and closer. It was moving fast like a squirrel, but it was as loud as a bear. It sounded like it was going all the way around the point. Not only that but it was moving faster and getting closer with each circle of our campsite.
　　My uncle grabbed his gun because we didn't know what else to do. I shined the light exactly where we heard the sound, and we couldn't see anything. All we could see was leaves flying into the air and bushes moving like something was moving rapidly through them. We tried not to panic, but we knew by now that this was something not at all earthly. My uncle took aim on the area about 20 feet away from us where I was now shining the light, and fired. The noise and movement stopped instantly. We felt a little relaxed. But we were in shock at the same time. We talked about what it could have been, and if there was any possibility it could have been an animal. We both agreed it could not have been.

　　After about a half hour more it started again. It started at the very bottom and continued to progress up the slopes until it was very near us. This time we tried to hold and not fire as long as we could. It came about 10 feet away from us and my uncle fired once more. Once again all became silent. I would continue detailing each encounter that night, but you get the idea.

　　声音变得越来越大，越来越近。它像松鼠一样快速的移动但那声音却像是熊发出的似的。听起来整个岬角周围都有声音。不仅如此，声音还越来越近，正一点一点靠近我们的帐篷。

　　叔叔紧抓着他的枪，因为我们不知道除此之外还能做什么。我把电筒照向声音发出的地方，什么都没看到。只能看到树叶在空中飞舞，矮树丛沙沙作响像有人在里面走动似的。我们已经意识到这不是寻常之物，所以努力保持镇定。我拿着电筒，叔叔瞄准20英尺外的地方开了火。那声音和动作立刻就停了。我们松了一口气，但同时又感到很惊讶。我俩讨论那究竟是什么东西，有没有可能是只动物，最后一致认为不可能是动物。

　　半个多小时后，那声音又响起来。声音从斜坡底慢慢向上，逐渐靠近我们。这次我们一直端着枪，直到那声音离我们大概10英尺的时候才开枪。声音又一次停了。我还可以继续详细描述那晚每次听到声音时的情形，但我想你们已经了解了。
