Chapter 3 - Hole of doom

Norman took a deep breath as he entered the dense forest, feeling like he was stepping into a scene from a horror movie. The lush greenery and chirping of birds filled him with a sense of wonder and curiosity, but also a creeping sense of fear. He couldn't shake the feeling that he was being watched, and not in a good way.

The wind whispered through the trees, rustling the leaves and creating a gentle hum that filled the air.

Wherever he look he only see gigantic tree

As he walked deeper into the forest, he suddenly had a brilliant idea. "I know," he thought, "I'll make some clothes out of leaves! That way, if any animals attack me, they'll think I'm just a really leafy tree." He quickly gathered some leaves and began fashioning them into a makeshift outfit.

Unfortunately for Norman, he wasn't exactly a fashion expert, and his leaf ensemble left much to be desired. "I look like a walking salad," he groaned, looking down at his leafy attire. "But hey, at least I'm not naked."

As he continued on his journey, he couldn't help but crack some jokes to himself to ease the tension. "Why did the squirrel cross the road? To get to the nut store!" he laughed, feeling pleased with himself. "I guess I'll have to stick with comedy, since my fashion career clearly isn't taking off."

But as he ventured deeper into the forest, things started to get even weirder. He stumbled upon a massive hole in the ground, and despite his better judgment, he couldn't resist the urge to investigate. "Hmm, I wonder if this is where all the cool animals hang out," he mused, peering down into the abyss.

He circled around it, trying to gauge its depth, but it was too vast to discern with the naked eye.

Norman picked up a stone and tossed it into the hole, but it was too small to make any significant sound. Frustrated, he searched for a larger object to toss in, and found a gigantic boulder nearby.

As he dropped the boulder into the hole, a strange sound echoed up to his ears. It was faint at first, but it grew louder with each passing moment.

Suddenly, a shiver ran down Norman's spine as he realized whatever was down there was not something he wanted to face. He turned to leave, but a deafening noise made him freeze in his tracks.

The noise stopped as quickly as it had begun, and Norman knew he had to get out of there fast.

As he ran, a loud rustling sound filled the air, causing him to halt in his tracks. He held his breath, waiting for the source of the noise to reveal itself, but there was no movement. Suddenly, the ground beneath him shifted, and Norman looked down to see a massive coiled creature.

His heart raced as he realized the danger he was in.
