just a little short story. |
The day was Monday, I had just woken up from my Sunday night sleep and found myself not in my spacious double bed but in a little boat in the middle of a rain forest. I lied there for quite a long time, staring at nothing but the canopy and the dark green color of the forest. Then I started hearing distant screams and sound of metal hitting metal. I stood up shakily and looked to the direction of the noise. There were five figures running towards me with something like long sticks in their hands. Then my eyes focused on the huge figures behind the five stick holders. There were about a dozen people in shining armor on horses crying "Aaaaaghhhhhh!" after the five figures who were running straight at me. I was completely perplexed, paralyzed then one of the five figured tackled me hard. Even before I hit the ground the man who tackled me lost his head to one of the monstrous armored figures on horses. At that moment, I started panicking and ran wildly after the fleeing group of figures now reduced to four. We ran for I don't know how long but it seemed like hours. I looked back and saw no horsemen so I relaxed and tried to call after the still running fugitives. One of them stopped and said something to his companions and they walked slowly towards me. All of them wore pretty much rags and held long metal swords covered with something red - maybe blood. I stared at them and I realized that they were also staring at me. They were all black haired and were quite gaunt but pretty tall. Then one of them tried something 'Loranz?' I shook my head and said slowly 'Do you speak Eng-lish?' Before he could answer, the sky turned black and everything just went out of focus and I started hearing Drrrrn! Drrrn! Drrrn! -my alarm clock. |
