Valtor stirred in his sleep as the sun slowly started to rise, filling the sky with brightness again.
Feeling hungrier and even more sore than yesterday, he was forced to sit up from the uncomfortable ground. Rubbing his sore arm, Valtor stared into the sea as he pondered on yester night's events
'I made a fire yesterday, somehow I did'..
hesitating a short while after saying those words, he pulled out the paper he found earlier
"Make a fire"..he read out, that means whoever wrote this knows what I can do, he pocketed the note as he stood up, let's see if I can do it again
Steadying himself, he raised his less sore arm, lunging it forward while making a 'hyah'!.. sound..nothing, he murmured in disappointment
maybe if I used the same stance as yesterday, it might work,
He began to dramatize being pinned by one arm while stretching the other arm forward, with his face turned away, he took deep breaths....
Ok this is stupid, he gave up as he turned back towards the woods, he wondered, how the hell did I do it yesterday?
....growl....
He clung to his stomach as the hunger pangs began to set in
I can't go back in there in search of food, I'll probably get killed this time, he sat back on the ground in frustration,..I need to get out of here!
There's no swimming through the sea, it's far too wide, which means the only way out is probably through those damn haunted woods!.., he brushed through his messy hair as he stared back at the forest with a determined look.. I have to get back in there, it's the only way.
Valtor you'll get yourself killed,..but if I stay here, I'll die of hunger so I don't really have a choice, he argued with himself
Walking past the familiar tree where he was pinned the night before, he began to take deep breaths as he stared at the blackened carcase that remained.
Glancing towards his left, he spotted a group of fruit trees,..finally! something to eat, he hurried towards them, picking and eating everything he found, deciding to save some for later, he took his shirt off and tied it to look like a shoulder bag, then filled it up with extra
Deciding he had packed enough, he hung his 'bag' on his shoulders and continued into the woods but suddenly came to a halt when he noticed strange footprints ahead.
Shit!..he slowly began to retreat before getting hit by a gust of wind from behind causing him to turn around, on finding nothing, fear creeped inside of him
Not again.., Valtor began to hurry back towards the water until a huge creature with a bird's face and dragon scales was suspended in the air in front of him, blocking his way with it's huge wings
shit! ..Valtor changed his mind and began running in the other direction, deeper into the woods while the creature chased behind, flying over and blocking his view for the second time, but this time, it lunged it's claws in an attempt to attack
Valtor felt his skin heat up as fire made way from his body, burning his attacker in the process, the creature screeched in terror before flying away in another direction.
I'm on fire!..Valtor began to panic as he stared at himself,.. oh my God, I'm on fire!, he decided to run around hoping to cool it off but it didn't seem to work
Totally out of breath, He stopped to glance at himself again, he was definitely on fire but didn't feel any burns
Okay..calm down Valtor, he tried to relax as he took deep breaths..while the fire around him slowly began to dissipate till he became normal again
Valtor let out a sigh, followed by a laugh as he ran his hand through his jet black hair..wow! I really can make fire,..I could actually make it out of wherever I am
He stared at the path ahead as he crouched
to pick his 'bag' of fruits which lay on the ground, slinging it on his shoulder, he took a deep breath before walking deeper into the forest.
