The Bloodstained Memories Of Endless Anguish (RAIN WORLD AU)

4

I wake up, my head throbbing. I sit up, rub my eyes and stretch. I look around and immediately panic. This area is not  familiar at all... My siblings are probably all alone now and starving and it's all my fault-

I look around and immediately jump back when i notice another slugcat that was pointing a spear towards my face the whole time. I immediately raise my hands and he narrows his eyes at me. He's a blue-ish grey slugcat with a bad face scar that ripped skin off of his mouth, revealing two of his teeth. I thought that, that scar was bad...
...Multiple scars spread across a single spot on his chest as if he's been cut there badly.

"The hell are you staring at? Get up." He hisses, clenching his teeth. His spear follows my movements as i slowly stand up, keeping my hands as they are. He lowers his spear and grabs my face by the chin, moving it and inspecting my face.

"Ah?-"
"Shut up."

He stares at me and huffs. He lets go of my face but in a rather violent way, sorta pushing me as he did so.
"What- who are you and why did you just grab me?" I ask, following him as he turns around and starts walking away.
"None of your business." He spits back. "Rude..." I mumble under my breath and keep following him. He glares ahead of him and keeps walking.

After a few moments he sighs and turns around to face me. "Stop following me you rat." He says. I immediately put my hand on my chest and lean back in offense. "Uh! Excuse me?!"

He turns back around. "You can follow... But don't think i won't eat you when i get hungry, kay? You're lucky you don't look anything like..." He cuts himself off and there's a very awkward moment of silence.

"...like?" I ask, walking beside him and fidgeting with a scrap of rubbish i found on the ground.

"Nunyo."
"Who's nuny-"
"business."
"Oh ok."
"..."
I clear my throat and watch him as we walk. I get distracted by how he just so casually drags his spear along with him and stares into the distance. I get distracted by looking at him and trip over a tree root and face plant. He stops and simply stares at me.

"Get up, weirdo." He commands and keeps walking. "Wait-"

I quickly get up and rub my nose "ow...."

"-uhh so i need help. I'm kinda lost and needa find my family cause I'm extremely responsible for them and-" i start blabbering when he puts a finger to my mouth and shushes me. "First of all, you talk too much. Second of all, whatever since I'm looking for someone too. Don't expect me to be nice to your sorry ass, k?" He says nonchalantly and turns to look ahead of himself again.

"Ok," I agree.
"I'm Monk by the way. What's your name..?"

"Shade." He replies casually and yawns.
He opens a pouch in a bag that he carries by his side and pulls out a chunk of meat, eating it and dropping his spear purposely. I pick it up instead. It was still warm from his hands but not too warm to where it's sweaty. I fidget with it.

"That's a cool name!"
