Now it had been days since the boy got stuck in the vines. Every day, the boy's Companions (a.k.a. the geckos) left, they always came back with little flies. Everyday the geckos brought some and offered them too the boy but everyday the boy didn't understand.
After several days of this something finally happened. The whole reason it happened was because one of the things, or to be more specific one of the humans carrying the torch was following a gecko, or to get more specific, following what the gecko was carrying as he couldn't see the gecko.
After following the gecko the human actually arrived at a clearing. At first the human was confused because it was dark, and his torchlight didn't reach the other end, which was strange because he could tell this was by the cliff because in the day this is the direction of the cliff.
Looking at the direction were the light didnt reach the man was surprised because he could see what looked like eyeballs reflecting the torch light. At first the man was surprised because of the eyes, then he was confused. he was confused because he realized that not once were the eyes looking at him, but in reality they were looking at the torch. Realizing this the man moved the torch to a different direction and just like a moment ago, the eyes continued too look at the torch.
For a couple minutes the man changed the position of the torch every few seconds, and every single time the eyes followed the torch. Finally deciding too see what the eyes belonged too as not once did the eyes come out of the darkness or attack, the man moved forward.
Unexpectedly what was waiting in the darkness wasn't a creature or monster, but as it turned out, it was the boy. Flustered the man stood there for a minute or so. Finally looking at the other details of the boy the man finally noticed the vines wrapping around the boy and that the boy actually was suspended by the vines and tangled in them.
