"It would be a lot easier if you can just follow my directions" I knew that. But something tells me I shouldn't. And that something is my inner soul. I trust my instinc aaaaaaah!!!! The painting on the wall said take right and I did. How can fall into a pit? Every time I think my life can't get any lower the universe proves me wrong. Clearly it's taking me to the earth core at this point just to prove a point! "Could've listened!" "Shut up" is all I that came out. Anything else I wanna say it face to face. "You're weak. Just accept that. You can't navigate this place, let alone understand it's structure......" I zoned out a while ago. Did he call me weak? I am but still! Now if I can just look for a way to climb up I can start over my journey to get out. A loud thud startled me. "What are this logs? Where did you even find them?" The look in his eyes explained a thousand words. "As I was saying I know this place inside out. If you were listening, you'll know I can go out and come back in." "Why would you come back in?" He didn't answer. I didn't want to pry in his business so I kept quite while he's building stairs with wooden logs. He  does come in handy. "Now, can you do a piggy back ride?" "I can climb by myself thank you" he raised his hands giving up and stood behind. I cracked my knuckles to free my hands and started to climb one. Only to fall flat on my back. "You're physical strength is weaker than a 7 year old. How is that even possible?" He picked me up to sit and checked if I hurt myself while making fun of me. What should I make of it I'm confused. Before I grasp what's going on he put me on his back like I'm a child. "Umm excuse me sir?" "You'll thank me later" "I will but a warning or asking me to climb on you would be fine. Wait that came out wrong. What I meant was..." a deep chuckle from him stopped my rambling. "You wouldn't do it. So I had to make a choice for you. You might not have enough strength but your heart and mind shows potential." Potential? Why is he talking like I'm going to start a training. "Potential for what?" "I'll help you navigate." "Potential for what?" Can you get off of me now please. I'd appreciate it." "Oh yea! Potential for what" he looked at me bewildered for my persistency. "You are one annoying little creature" "we're both same species" "right! I still stand by that." He walked away before I could ask anything. Potential for what?
