Growing Flowers

Chapter 6-Hunted or Prey?

I was breathing nonstop. I can't shake the feeling of being paused on the wooded forest. it was daunting. I was carrying Rester in between my arm as he was shaking up a bit. The Hunter was still chasing us, with his breathing getting more vicious and every other animal flown away from the ground. I have to stop but I couldn't, he's probably going to kill us, heck, even maybe helping us? who knows.

Rester looked behind me with his head turned under neath my arm. The hunter raised the shotgun up in the air, rising it while running towards us through the dense trees and ground of grass. "How the fuck is he still after us! he should just leave us alone!" Rester scowled directly without getting distracted by him at all.

my lungs were filled with bugs and other creatures, I'm losing my air. "IDK!? he's probably trying to end the both of us! we don't want to get killed in his own games, do we? "I shouted, as Rester nodded. he didn't want to at all, neither do I. I kept running with trying not to get my dress muddy with the mud Infront of us. the sun was still beaming quietly, Hunter was firing more shots through trees, the water and the sky, missing the both of us. I can hear him fired another one as it hatted right through my shoulder, almost hitting me. I tripped over a rock as me and Rester both stumbled down the ground. I hitter myself but I was fine, as i landed on the dirty ground. I spit out some dirt as I saw Rester waking up. he was bleeding from his head but he's totally ok.

The Hunter slop down the muddy slope as he stared at the both of us quietly. he held his shotgun in place between his black gloves and his fingers. as much as I wanted to keep quiet all the time I can't at all. I sat upright with my purple dress being with mud spattered on it. The hunter breathed heavily through the gas mask quietly. He walked on over as Rester stared back at me. 

The hunter glanced at us with a grin, he has a blue like hat with a yellow curve line. His breathing sounds like he hasn't been sitting for many days by now. Why was he after us? Maybe, after me instead. Father always like to take me to a shooting range, I never used one thankfully but always some reason that mask scared me.

"Go ruby, I'll deal with him. You don't want to die here alright." Rester asked me as I was shaking up. The terror that has everything with being chased and being hunted. I got up, wiping the dirt off of my clothing as I began o run. It was already cold outside, freezing enters through me. My shoes were scrambling in the mud with my best effort to run and flee.

Rester watched as he turned back around to face him, with the shotgun pointed upright. Rester on the other hand didn't know what to do at all, all he could do is stand there and wait for the moment to take upon on him.

The hunter walked more as he dashed, using his feet and legs as Rester defend himself by his arms as he heard a clinger noise. Rester stopped, looking as he lowered his arms as the hunters leg was caught in a sneaky bear trap as he screamed for help even more.

He watched with his mouth open as hunter screamed and moaned more as his leg was bleeding quickly with the sharp jaws of the trap catching and gripping through him like a blade.  He stared at his badly injured leg as blood was spilling through him and onto the ground.

Rester watched as he hurried over, trying to get his shotgun as hunter grabbed his wrist while in pain as Rester stared, he laughed, smiling through the gas mask "you think you can leave this game with that girl? Nobody leaves, everyone gets hurt from me." He smiles. Rester stared, scared less trying to get away from him and unlocking his hand off of him.

Rester had to think of something. He knows that the hunter is not a real human. Only for scrubo to trick him and kill. Rester can't get killed here, even if he does and is my plush toy, his soul won't come back ever.

The hunter still grabbed his arm more tighter as Rester can feel his breathing in his chest harder. Rester lowered his rabbit legs as he was trying to use his feet to do a running paddle but could t work as he ignored what hunter was saying, he was getting his shotgun from the eighth side of him.

Rester turned his eyes to a narrow rock that looks like an illusion as he picked the rock up, leaving a lonely worm on the ground as he stared at him while in old age. He gave the hunter a angry insane expression as the hunter perked up in a hurry as Rester without hesitation, he slammed the rock down on his head as he petted go of his wrist. Rester glanced as the hunter felt the little blood drooling from his head.

Hunter laid on his knees, seeing it drool onto the grass as he chuckled, trying to teach the shotgun as his hat fell off his head, slowly. Rester in time stared at him as he spit from his rabbit mouth "you wanna hurt me nor her, pay the cost on doing it yourself. Besides, scrubo created you to hurt us."

Rester was stills angry. He turned away as he pulled his arm sleeve down, leaving the hunter on the ground with the rock scar across his head. He smiled through his gas mask quietly as he chuckled, smiling as the sun was going down as it was sunset time.

As he was startled, getting up on his knees in a hurry to try to catch Rester as he was fleeing faster than the speed of light. As he was doing this, the hunter tried to use one of his other weapons tucked in his vest as it was no use.

It has no ammo at all as every time he took another step, the shotgun hook was being tangled by a thick stick as he pulled back on the lever as it leashed. It came furring directly to his kneecap as he screamed in more pain, as he can feel his while body shone with blood.

He dropped on the ground as he was breathing heavily in his chest as he tried not to let the blood out as his vein has snapped. As he screamed more as Rester was running away like a hare as he walked over some logs and small snakes as they hissed. He kicked some branches away as he wipe off dirt and leave off his face.

I was sitting by the lake still, thinking on many ways to leave this game, this purgatory we're in. That's it. We're in purgatory, a place where nobody ever leaves to go to heaven nor the underworld. They are trapped to starve. I picked up some rocks and tossed it hard across the water harder. It made a little drips as it sunk in the water quietly.

Rester watched, as he sighed as he walked on over towards me to sit down. I didn't say anything as he glanced at me while the sun was setting down with the whole sky all black.

Rester was quiet as I watched the sun go down, he sighed once again as he said to me in a distant voice "are all of us going to make it out in time?"he asked as I perked up, horrified.
