Chereads / Dangers In My Head / Chapter 2 - Chapter 01

Chapter 2 - Chapter 01

Forest. Tall woods blocking the sky, cloaking underneath it with shadows. Animals slaying each other by how the food cycle goes. A domineering boar figure took a stroll at the side of bushes.

Deep into the woods, a small figure suddenly emerged out of nowhere and grabbed the boar taking a stroll.

"Gotcha!" With a youthful smile on his face, the youth hugged the boar in his hand before tightening his strength.

"Growl!" The boar fought back and tried to escape from the youth's embrace, but to no vail. No matter how it struggled with all it's strength, it was like an ant in the figure of this youth.

Soon, the figure of the boar began panting heavily before laying down the ground, exhausted. The youth was immediately delighted and let it's guard down, "Haaah… You're finally been caught little Wan… You've wandered too far, we've almost reached the boundary…" A smile emerged out of his face, before swiping his forehead with his hand, preventing his sweat from falling any further.

Thinking that the boar has already used up all it's strength, the youth rested his butt unto the ground to rest, before retracting his other hand from the boar, "Don't ever think of running away again."

Afterwards, like it's full of energy, and was in heat, the boar immediately stood in it's foot before running to the east direction.

"Aaaaaaaaahh!!" The youth let out a short cry as it immediately stood up and started running, chasing after the boar.

"Little Wen! Stop running!" Showing a sign of exhaustion, the youth started shouting towards the boar. Unfortunately, it doesn't seemed to understand him, as it continued to ran unbeknownst to both of them.

By the time it stopped, it's foot trembled in horror.

"Little Wen, what's wrong?" The youth panted a few times before reaching the side of the boar. When he saw that it's foots were trembling like nothing he had seen before, he immediately shifted his gaze in front of it.

Majestically, A tall gate with sharp end, were hanging into the ceiling. Walls that he was unfamiliar with, filled his view. When he took a glance at it's both end, he couldn't even see the view of it's turning side.

The youth immediately tried to grabbed the boar with his hand, but to his shock, it dodged to the side before circling and running into the deep woods.

"Ah." The youth froze in shock. He had chased after it, in order to bring it back since it's escaped, but now that he encountered something he had a sinister feeling of, it immediately ran into it's tail and left him hanging.

"Hey! What are you doing there, lad!" As the youth was still frozen in shock, a mighty voice suddenly resounded elsewhere.

The youth looked around and found not a single soul. Confusion started showing to his youthful face.

"Look up!" Once again, the mighty voice resounded elsewhere. The youth took his time before finding where the voice came from. Under the wall, he found a middle aged man in his thirties.

The middle aged man studied his situation before speaking up, "Where did you came from?"

"From my father's farm!" The youth shouted.

The middle aged man expression suddenly reddened in anger, as he replied, "What I'm talking about is your origins, and who is your father is!"

"Ah!" The youth exclaimed as he suddenly understood what the middle aged man is trying to say.

Gesturing his hand into the woods, he said, "Deep into the woods!"

The middle aged man suddenly burst out in anger, "What I'm trying to say is which direction did you came from!?"

The youth shook his head as he heard it, "No idea." Afterwards he dumbly said.

"Wait stay there for a minute!" The middle aged man shouted at the youth, before running down the stairs. After a few minutes, he finally arrived in front of him, panting, "Are you somehow lost?" He asked with a worried expression.

"Probably." Since he had no idea whether he can go back or not, the youth said.

Immediately, the middle aged man expression distorted, as he said, "Come. Follow me."

"Alright." Since he couldn't go back by himself, and had no idea how to, the youth had no choice but to follow the middle aged man.

The youth held the hand of the middle aged man as if he's being taken into a stroll. In a while, his expression suddenly emitted a sign of excitement, when they arrived into the streets. Around him was a few stalls he had never seen before, and tall building which he has not even seen since his birth. As he was mesmerizing the scenery before his eyes, the middle aged man suddenly opened it's mouth to speak, "Lad, first time been to town?"

"Yeah." The youth said shortly.

The middle aged man didn't mind his attitude, and continued on, "Lad, tell me your name?"

The youth snorted in reply before speaking in arrogant tone, "Why would I give my name to someone I just met?"

The middle aged man stopped in his track, he stared at the youth with his eyes saying, "is this really supposed to be a youth?" before abandoning the thought.

Shortly afterwards, they arrived into a big gate endowing a beautiful gardenfield inside.

The middle aged man pressed the button to the side, before standing straight in resolute.

The youth didn't said a word as he stared dumbfounded into the middle aged man. Just what is he trying to do?

Just as he was starting to become curious, he suddenly heard the gate creaked opened, revealing the view inside with great quality.

"Oh, you came." A lady wearing a gothic gown dyed in black, holding a crimson umbrella came in front of the middle aged man to speak. From the looks of it, she's the one responsible for opening the gate.

As the youth stood by the side, the lady and middle aged man began conversing to each other. By the time they finished, the youth was already bored to death.

The lady ran to the youth's side before bowing in apology.

The middle aged man almost had an heart attack as he immediately ran to her side, "Little Miss, you don't have to. It's my fault!"

"But still." The lady continued bowing her head and said.

"No but's." The middle aged man said in a mighty tone.

The lady like figure heaved a sighed before raising her body up, standing straight elegantly like a princess. She offered a hand to the youth, before speaking up, "Care to keep me company till inside?" The lady like figure said while wearing a smile.
