Great. Just great. I've only just opened my eyes and I'm already late for my crappy, minimum wage job. My arrogant waste of space manager promised me if I'm late even by a second one more time I'm done; I definitely cannot afford that.
I looked outside only to find the sun blaring and the pavements so hot you could fry eggs. I quickly get myself ready, throw on my blue dress and combat boots ,sling my bag over my shoulder and set off running.
I headed towards the woods in order to use the shortcut and just my luck halfway through there's a fallen tree smack bang in the middle of the path. I hurriedly dodged the thistles and ventured deeper into the trees hoping to find a seperate route around. I resumed my pace then CRACK! "Shiiiiiiiiiiit" I screamed while rolling down this seemingly endless hill of mud and rocks and you can be damn sure I felt every single one.
When I finally awoke I could barely think strait due to the pain echoing through my bones. I slowly peeled open my eyes revealing my unfortunate situation. There I was, led in a crystal clear lake in the bottom of a steep ravine. I slowly dragged myself to my feet breaking through the immense throbbing in my head then "fuck me" I manage to moan out as I inspected myself; I had blood dripping down my face and running down my chest. I peered through a veil of crimson before dragging a finger across the gash on my face.
After swiping the mix of blood and mud out of my eyes, I began to trudge through the water and hunt for an exit; as I reached a possible escape point my brain finally switched on. This is not my local park anymore. Trees towered above me 20,30 meters into the sky. Lush green grass coated every inch of the ground with berry bushes coated in blue and purple berries weaved in between. Sunlight barely penetrated the thick canopy of the lush, rich foliage that was teeming with life. I had never seen such a stunning slice of nature in my entire life. Suddenly,I heard the crunch of leaves and I spun round only to meet a pair of emerald eyes gazing upon me. They appeared as shocked as me if not more so, they had a sparkle of curiosity and were full of life.
The creature slowly emerged from the bush, slow as if it were stalking it's pray. When my eyes managed to escape the clutch of its intense gaze I realised that it was not a demon, nor a monster. It was a beautiful, midnight black fox; the size is what surprised me the most. The fox was as big as a Shetland but at the same time kept it's elegant and graceful nature. It's white tipped tipped tail swished from side to side, making me wonder what it was thinking. My brain barely had time to process the imminent threat when the stunning creature stood on its hind legs, it slowly walked forward and morphed into an even more stunning man. He had chin length black hair which shun against the blearing sun. Atop his head perched black fox ears which occasionally twitched making him seem cute, almost puppy like. His face and body was godlike; his face was lightly dusted with redness with a small scar across the bridge of his nose. I looked down and that's when I saw it: HE WAS NAKED!!! Before I could think, my hand covered my eyes and I abruptly let out a screech and deafeningly loudly stated " OH MY GOD! Cover yourself up you pervert. Who the fuck do you think you are showing yourself without even a flicker of consideration. You should be ashamed of yourself". A wave of shock and confusion adorned his face as he fumbled around with a piece of fir and clumsily tied it around himself.
He stepped forward again and in a much less confident manner exclaimed" female! What are you doing out here all on your own? Don't you know how dangerous it it with wild beasts and ferals lurking about? And how are your males so irresponsible as to leave you alone. They should be punished severely for endangering such a beautiful female". I tilted my head slightly in confusion before muttering" what on earth are you talking about, I have no males and I am perfectly fine. I walk on my own everyday and have had very little trouble". He then slowly and calmly replied" I do not know what an earth is or how I would be on it; You must have been very fortunate to have had no trouble before. I cannot believe how lucky I am to find such a cute, sweet and unmated female. I will bring you with me back to the village and I will do my all to care for you and will protect you at all costs". With that he swept me up and carried me bridal style while sprinting through the trees, we were moving so fast the world became a blur. I just hoped with all my heart that this will not be as bad as it was looking.
