The mystery of a bird

It was early in the morning, when Thomas woke up and decided to read the news and drink his coffee after breakfast in his garden. He realized a weird bird singing.

Thomas gazed at the bird trying to figure what species it was, but it was a kind of bird that he has never seen before. The bird kept following Thomas with its head. It flew again but this time it landed on Thomas’s head. Thomas tried to push it away. The bird flew in front of Thomas’s eyes and kept flying around him.  It wants me to follow it! Thomas thought. He stood up and the bird flew in a straight line towards the east. Thomas followed, and then he stopped. This is crazy! Following a bird? Thomas wondered. The bird returned back to Thomas and kept flying around him, Thomas followed again until he reached to a cave, the bird showed him the entrance. The entrance closed. What? I’m trapped in this unknown place with a bird. The bird kept going inside the cave and Thomas kept following, until he reached to a huge wall. Some writings were written on it.

“Solve the puzzle then you will be free.” Thomas read with a surprised voice.

Thomas gazed at the bird, “No, puzzle here.”

The bird hit the wall as hard as it could and it fainted. A puzzle appeared on the wall.

Thomas kept thinking until he finally solved the puzzle on the wall from the first try.

Once the puzzle was solved the cave disappeared, the bird changed to a man and woke up. 

“Thank you” said the man gratefully

Thomas said shocked, “yer welcome, do you know the way to my home?”

“Sure, I will send you back home don’t worry.” The man said smiling.
