Spelling and Grammar Issues: "It stands of two legs" that should be "it stands on two legs". "miles per hour, Although" "although" did not need capitalized. "1.4 thousand dollars" first off, that really isn't that much money worth of damage, second it should be "$1400". "14 teenagers" I suggest spelling out the number. "The last sighting of the firenewt" try to remember to capitalize your characters' names.

Plot Issues: There is really no plot to this story other than a bunch of a reports that go virtually nowhere. The monster in this story sounds like something out of some kind of RPG game and not really scary at all. I would suggest telling us the creature's name at the beginning of the story. The name itself isn't said until near the end. And if this is a known creature why is nobody out to stop it? I would also suggest giving dates to these accounts, otherwise readers will just assume they happened yesterday. The monster seems incompitent if it allowed the hunter to escape, especially if it goes very fast. "It was burnt and curled and was burnt" that was redundant.

Plot Issues Continued: Then we get a 1779 account where people believe the monster was responsible without any proof. If the last sighting was in 2009 then nobody has to worry about him anymore which kind of defeats the purpose. I would also like to mention that the beginning says there were "many reports" of Firenewt, yet we're only handed about two of them.
