Answer 2

All of a sudden I heard a scary sound in the middle of the night. The sound woke me up from my deep slumber and I couldn't decipher what the sound was. My parents had gone to see my relatives and hence my brother and I were only at home. I woke him up and both of us wore our shoes and took torches in our hands. The street light was faulty as usual and we switched on our torches when we saw a dog whining in our neighbors house. We increased the intensity of the torches' light when we shockingly found that it wasn't a dog but a hyena. The hyena had somehow managed to come to my locality and we saw that it was bruised badly. My brother called up the blue cross and they immediately arrived to save the injured animal. It's howl scared me to death that day but after being a part of rescuing the animal, I felt relieved.
