I was on my way back from school. I had a bunch of bags in my hand since my friends made me carry theirs in a lost bet. I had three friends around me of course equaling to three bags so, I was carrying pretty heavy weight. It felt like my back was about to snap in two.
"Hey Kylian give me my bag real quick"
One of my friends had asked me for the bag I had been holding which, was a relief I couldn't bear the pain in my back any longer. Then the other two decided to grab their bags. I heard them whispering, when I tried to approach they pushed me away. The push was hard enough to make me trip on my own feet into the street. Next thing I remember hearing was "Vroom" then "Splat". I was hit by a car? but I don't feel dead. I wasn't.
I woke up in a hospital bed panting in pain. I looked down and I had nothing. My arms were gone and my legs were gone. In a sudden flash of terror I passed out, and never awoke. I felt alive but not quite there, as if I was just a spirit being floated off to the after life however, never quite making it there. After what felt like decades or even centuries, I awoke.
My ears were screeching and my eyes were adjusting to the lights and everything hurt for a second, Then I was fine.
"Where the hell am I?"
I was able to finally talk after all that time. It felt really good. I looked around and saw a bunch of weird things you would see out of some kind fantasy world. There were a bunch of humans and even..non-humans? It was weird, too weird to explain in simple terms. There were also a lot of old medieval style houses around on my right then, on my left a bunch of miniature shops with fruits and veggies. I finally got up before I looked like some drunk on the side of the street.
I walked around for a bit looking at all the nice scenery while, trying to still retain what memories I had before coming here. Then I heard this very masculine voice start yelling and shouting about how he was being robbed so, like any normal person would I went to go check it out. I arrived at the stand, looking around I saw big "man?" I don't know he had a pig head so it was throwing me off. He was the shop keep and pointed at the girl robbing them and I saw something which made me unconsciously follow her.
I followed her into the weird decrepit alley way and saw her sorting through some of the juiciest looking apples I have ever seen. I stared at her wide eyed because she wasn't human or was? She had these features a human has but has ears and a wolf like tail. This was the whole reason I followed her to get a look at these weird ears and tail. Now that I mention it that other guy had a pig head. I was too deep in thought to notice that me and that girl were in like a one minute staring contest.
"Hey, you going to say something or keep staring at me like some creep"
That finally snapped me out of my day dreaming and honestly I didn't know what to say.
"Uh well you see I just wanted to..see your tail?"
I had said that without thinking much about it. Usually, atleast where I come from if someone just came into town with real ears and a tail everyone would be all over them.
"what..?"
It did take me a little bit to realize that probably was one of two things. weird or creepy But, it was definitely creepy.
"Sorry I'm not really used to someone who has a tail?"
We continued to stare at eachother.
"It's fine, here"
she threw me one of the apples. I took the apple and took a bite out of it. This apple was the best thing I had ever tasted, It was so juicy and instantly quenched my thirst and hunger. I was staring at my apple and decided to look up to thank that girl but she left when I was enjoying the tasteful apple. I looked around and she was gone nowhere else to be found. It kind of sucked since being friends with that type of person is once In a lifetime. Well maybe not In this place.
I decided to continue my adventure of the shopping district there were signs, lots of them but I could barely make out what they say. it's like a mixture between English and some other kind of language. Now that I look around there are a bunch of different people who look like they are ripped straight out of folklore and myths. Even though I had just eaten an apple that's not enough to satisfy for a while so I looked around for food. However I was flat broke.
I could steal like that one girl but, I don't feel like already getting arrested. I could get a job but, that would take way too long. I could beg but, I really don't want to look desperate. Even though I am the most desperate a person can get. I guess I will have to survive on an empty stomach for now.
