Chereads / RISE OF THE UNKNOWN / Chapter 2 - Encounter

Chapter 2 - Encounter

 "Hahh" "cough" I gasped and coughed out some water while looking at my surroundings

 "It seems I got washed away by the water " I murmured. Still observing my surroundings I tried to stand up which caused a great pain to strike me.

 "Ughh", although I was passing through a lot of pain I knew staying here in the woods at night could cost me my life 

"Argh". Releasing a grunt while standing up , I stood up and started limping towards an unknown direction but I had an objective , that is locating shelter. While I was looking left and right like a stray dog I finally found a cave.

 Although the cave looked and felt dangerous because even it surroundings seemed to be eeriely quiet, I still went forward because I knew I had no choice.

 Each step I took was difficult but I knew I had no choice. It was perfect for me since it was devoid of any monsters. Arriving inside I looked around and found a hole i immediately went inside and fell asleep ignorant of how much danger I have put myself in.

 "Mmhn" I moaned like I haven't slept for years . Although I was not satisfied I was still thankful. As I opened my eyes although it was blurry for the first few seconds but in there next second I was met with a snout and eye ball that seemed to be bigger than my head and it's head which seemed wolfish was bigger than my body . I rubbed my eyes to make sure I wasn't hallucinating, it was then I realized that I was in a cave and thought of the reality of me being in a cave I let out a scream

 "Arghh....." I quickly ran into the cave and hid in the deepest part .

 As I was contemplating on what to do next I heard a voice inside my head

 "Calm down human child, if I wanted you dead you could have been dead a long time ago" . After hearing this I calmed but what he said next put me in shock.

 "But now you have to give me a reason to keep you alive"
