The wolf turned its head in my direction. Our eyes met. It gulped down the piece of meat it was chewing on and growled at me. I slowly took a few steps back and pulled a slingshot out of my pocket. Now the wolf turned its entire body to me.
In what felt like half a second, I raised the slingshot aimed, shot, and turned around. I started running for my life. I didn't even see if I hit the wolf but I heard whimpering sound behind me so I guess I must have hit something that hurt.
I ran. I jumped over a few tall rocks so that the wolf wouldn't be able to find me with just seeing. Behind me I could hear the angry barks of the wolf. I ran as fast as I could. I had no idea where I was running. The only thing I knew was that with every second I ran my feet were weaker.
I had no idea where I was now, and the wolf still hadn't given up in chasing me. I climbed up a rock and jumped down on the other side. As I landed my right foot gave in and I hit the ground. I was laying on my back heavily panting.
I now saw the wolf standing above me. I crawled a few meters back, but I wasn't fast enough, and the wolf jumped at me and bit me, but I felt nothing. I grabbed a handful of dirt and pressed it in the wolf eye. He stumbled a few steps back. He had my water bottle in his mouth. With its teeth he made a hole in it and the water was dripping out of it.
While the wolf was still chewing on my water bottle, I started running again but I wasn't as fast as before because my foot hurt. I had to stop because my foot started bleeding and I wasn't able to put weight on it, so it was nearly impossible to run. I sat down on a stone and looked in the direction I came from.
I looked there for a few minutes, but the wolf didn't show up. It was almost like it disappeared. I checked my surroundings. I was now sitting on a rock at the foot of a mountain. I could see the grassland I came from and far far away I could see the blue sea.
A drop of water landed on my forehead. And another one. And another one. And then it started to rain. I thought of my tent and realized that I left everything I had in it. My food, the map, and the second water bottle. The only thing I had on me was my slingshot and a few coins.
I didn't want to get sick, so I carefully walked around. And then I found something that gave me a little bit of hope. It was the entrance of cave which led into the mountain. I walked in the cave. The cave didn't go down but up which was unusually for a cave, but it was better that way because this way the water of the rain won't be able to flood the cave.
I walked a few meters in until I collapsed on the floor. I was too tired to continue so I decided to sleep on the floor of the cave. Even though it hurt because the floor was so hard, I still managed to get a few hours of sleep.
I woke up around midnight. This time I had a dreamless sleep. The cave was now completely dark. "Wait where does this light come from?" I asked myself as I noticed that there was a light coming from deeper inside the cave.
I decided to check it out. At this point I had nothing to lose. I was completely lost. I had no idea where I was. I had no food and no water. I was hungry and thirsty. My throat felt like I ate sand.
I went deeper inside the cave. "What is this for a thing?" I was standing in the cave looking at something glowing red which was mounted to a piece of wood. It looked like there was a small fire inside of it.
On the side of the wood there was a small golden plate with a sign. ""100"". I had no Idea what was standing there even though I was one of the few kids in the village who knew how to read. It must be a language I don't know.
[everything between """" cannot be read or understood by people from this world, because it's Korean, everything between " " can be read and understood.]
I walked around a corner and saw that I was now standing on the outside again. I stood on a 60cm wide stone path which was "carved" out of the mountain. I pressed my back against the rock-hard surface. "Shall I really go up there?" I asked myself but before even thinking about it I started walking. I walked and after a few steps I saw another one of these red things. On the wood it was mounted on was another sign. ""99"". I still had no I idea what that was supposed to mean.
I climbed and climbed up. On some parts I had to crawl up because I wouldn't be able to hold myself else. On one point the slingshot I had with me slipped out of my pocket and fell down. It slid down the side of the mountain before crashing on a stone and shattering into thousand pieces.
I gulped. "What am I even doing here? I hope that doesn't happen to me!" I was already pretty high up. Above me was an overhang and outside was another one of these red things. I already passed a few of them. This one had the sing ""58"" on it.
I continued climbing until I reached a small hole in the mountain. It was about 4x4 meters. I sat down and took a deep breath. The view was unbelievable beautiful but on the other hand if I would slip I would fall down the mountain. I was already so high up that I could see the clouds like they were only a few meters above me.
I decided to rest a bit on this place. I didn't know where this path was leading to but now, I was already so high up that I had no other choice but to continue.
