Leafy's POV

"Hmmm...." I narrowed my eyes at the building materials that had just arrived.

"I guess I should make a blueprint?" I say a little confused. I take an empty blueprint paper and draw what I want.

"Hmm......" I narrowed my eyes at the blueprint and added something. "Perfect!" I smile.

"Now to build it..." I say narrowing my eyes at the empty, clear land.

{After a while of procrastinating}

"Okay, I'm definitely not gonna be able to build several entire buildings since I have absolutely zero experience...." I say frowning.

"Maybe I should start with a bench?" I say my thoughts out loud.

"Yeah! A simple bench should be easy!" I smile and grab some planks of wood, some nails and a hammer.

{A few hours later}

"It looks....great!..." I say, trying to hold my smile. "It looks horrible!" I shouted.

The "bench" barely looked like one. It's uneven and ugly. "How am I supposed to build an entire building!? Several even!?" I cover my face in embarrassment.

I get up my smile now replaced with a frown. "I guess I'll use this ugly bench as firewood tonight..." I frown and grab my axe. I start chopping down the bench into smaller pieces for my campfire tonight.

"I'll just have to keep practicing I guess..." I sigh and gather all the wood and bring them over to the campfire. I put the wood right beside the campfire to use for later.

I sighed. "Maybe I should just go to sleep early, I'm not really feeling well..." I frown sadly and go to my tent.

I lie down on my sleeping bag and let out another sigh before closing my eyes and drift off to sleep.

I open my eyes and see an orange light in the distance of this dark abyss.

Curious, I walk to the light. I blink and suddenly I'm right infront of the light. That light being....

"F-Firey..?" I say as my eyes widened in surprise.

Firey turns around with a blank face.

"Why did you leave?"

"You just left because everyone hates you."

"No one likes an Island Thief."

Firey says with a blank face.

I stay silent. His voice starts ringing in my head over and over again. His voice gets louder and louder.

I cover my ears and shut my eyes. I start to tear up.

"STOP IT!!!" I cover my ears in attempt to block out the noise.

"WHY, WHY, WHY!?" Firey yelled with a blank face.

I slowly open my eyes. My vision is blurry due to my tears and I slowly reach a hand out to Firey.

Right when I was about touch him I jolt awake. Cold sweat drips from my forehead and I'm panting.

"....a dream..?" I mumble in confusion.

I wipe away my tears and sigh frustratedly.

"Of all people...why him!?!?" I say angrily.

I sigh. "Whatever....looks like I got up way too early..." I say as I look at the night sky through a small window inside my tent.

"It's probably the middle of the night..." I say quietly. "I need to sleep." I mumble before lying down again.

"I can't sleep." I say to myself and sit up.

"Dang it...." I sigh rubbing my eyes.

I look outside from my semi closed tent door and see the pile of wood from my "bench" yesterday.

"...I guess it won't hurt to keep trying.." I mumbled and got out of my tent.

"Alright..." I stretched my arms and grabbed my hammer.

{After multiple tries}

"Haa...finally..!" I sighed in satisfaction. I finally made a good bench.

"It's sturdy, doesn't wobble, perfect proportions and overall great!!" I cheer.

"Practice really does make perfect!" I grin happily.

"Hm... I'm sure I can try building a small shack!" I start to get a little cocky.

I grab my axe, ready to get some logs.

{After a few more hours. The sun is rising now}

"Alright! I'm sure these are enough logs! Now let's get building!!" I pull the logs over to a spot.

I use some rope to tie the logs together. "Hngh!!!" I grunt pulling some more logs.

{After 20 minutes}

"Alright, the bottom is done!" I say.

"Time to start stacking!" I say and start stacking the logs together.

{After an hour}

I've stacked up a few logs now. It's over my head. "Hm, now how am I supposed to put the roof on?..." I say and wonder.

SNAP.

"Huh?- AAAAAHHHH!!" I let screamed. One of the ropes snapped and a log fell on me.

"UGH!- OW! I-it hurts!!!" I groan in pain. The log almost fell on my face but luckily it didn't.

It fell on the left upper side of my leaf. "I-i'm s-stuck! The only way is to-" I stop.

"...Alright.." I take a deep breath. "3...2.......1!" I push away from the log.

TEAR.

"AAAAAAAAHH" I let out a blood curdling scream as I lay on the ground.

My entire body feels limp.

"It hurts...."

"It....hurts....."

"..."

I black out.
