The Unknown Land

Waking up

Updated 9/19/2015

I was slowly being dragged back to consciousness by the sound of crashing waves. I open my eyes just be blinded by the sunset's bright rays.As I covered my eyes with my left arm, a flash of pain shot up from my arm to the my shoulder. Hissing at the pain I slowly sat up and blinked a few times, so my eyes can recover from it assault of light. I took in my surroundings while massaging my arm to reveling it of its pain. I was siting on a hill next to a large rock, the size of a 10 year old child. I watched with confusion as to why and how I got here, the sun was barely starting to set on my left over the dark blue waters of the ocean, and to my right was large area of trees were the light din't seem to pass. Likes it trying to escape from a black hole which is the forest it self.

"Damn were am I?" I said. I stood up and stretched my arms and legs.

I glanced down to see what I was wearing. Luckily I was still wearing a black short sleeved shirt with Kevlar black elbow long finger-less gloves and long black pants tucked into my knee high boots Which were black with dark red soles and silver belt buckles. I was also wearing my large black cloak that almost reaches the ground, the cowl was down revealing my straight jet black hair still in a braid . I checked my belt for the daggers that I always carried, they were there also was my sword "Hell fire".

'Hell fire' is one of the most legendary swords around the world. The sword's blade was a bright orange like the sunset or if in the right light an soft orange of a fire. The handle was colored a icy blue like the sky during bright winter day while the pommel was a fiery blue gem.

I then noticed the tall man a few feet away staring at me (cuz that's not weird). I quickly reached for 'Hell fire' and I then got into a offensive position. He jumped and reached for his own sword getting into his own offensive position. We stared at each other for a few seconds which to me felt like minutes. I was thinking of either attacking him for slightly freaking me out or to just telling him to leave because I am tired and need to figure out were I am exactly. Just then I got and idea. I smirked darkly at him and watched as he tensed up ready for an attack, just as a breeze comes blowing some leaves. I vanished leaving a trail of leaves behind me.

Guy P.O.V

I stood there stunned she suddenly disappeared. Last time I checked people just don't disappear out of thin air. Literally. I look around to see where she disappeared to,but I couldn't find her. I noticed that my hands were shaking. I took a deep breath and steadied my shaking hands and raising heartbeat. I focused on my surroundings looking for some type of movement, nothing not a living thing moved .

Then I heard the sound of metal slicing air, coming toward me from my left. I raised my sword barley blocking a small dagger, that fell to the ground. I looked toward were the dagger was shot from, only to barely see a glimpse of a dark shadow for a quick second before it disappeared again. Once again I look around when I felt the tip of a sharp sword on my back hovering, waiting to strike. I stood frozen with fear.

"Drop the sword " she said in a dark voice with a small hint of enthusiasm that sent shivers down my back. She was having fun with this.

I dropped my sword and weighted my options. I can either risk it and try to trip her and go for her sword or just try to talk my way out of it. I go with my first plan but before I was able to put in action she suddenly appeared in front of me. She stared and smirked at me as her cowl only covered the top part of her face making even scarier ,she was still hold the dagger towards me. She reached down for my sword and picked it up. She did the most unexpected thing, she ruffly handed the sword to me and said

"run" before vanishing again.
