You pant outside the building. That was rough, physically and mentally. You didn't expect for that to happen, you just wanted a place to sleep, but you gotta find somewhere else.

You look in the distance to find anything, to no one's surprise, you don't see anywhere to sleep and stay until you can escape.

As soon your mind thinks about escaping, it reminds you of Two. Are they worried about you? Probably. You need to go back, you don't wanna make Two stressed about you, do you? They're probably already in the edge with the destroyed hotel and the dead contestants, imagine being more pressured because of you. Such an inconvenience!

You try to find something by walking around. After what felt like an hour, you find a kind of ocean. You soon remind yourself about the Goiky canal. It's here. If your memory doesn't fail you, if you swim across it, you'll be closer to the hotel.

As you prepare to swim, you think about another, better idea. Making a boat.

You look around for planks in the city you're in, you find a lot of logs. It almost feels like you're blessed with luck.

You start making the boat, putting log next to log, making a small boat.

Finally, after what felt like an eternity, you finish making the boat.

You push the boat in the water, to see if it floats like you want it to, thankfully, it does work. Now you can go back to where you belong.

As you jump in the boat you made, you think back on your adventure with Two. The first day you and Two met. You didn't know who or what was Two, but as the time passed, you knew you could trust that number or whatever they are. But for now, the only thing that matters is getting back where their house was. After that much time, they might be worried about you, and you need to get back.

You also remember the contestants, they're nice, of course, but Two was your number one priority.

As the boat floats in the ocean, you admire the magnificent view, the sunset, the sky is a mixture of blue, orange and red, all colors making the sky even more admirable than the day.

The night approaches right when you're navigating through the ocean, the little stars make the journey more enjoyable, but there's a problem, you don't know where is the other side of the canal, where you were supposed to be.

You remember about when your grandpa taught you about the stars and how they can indicate the north, that information could save your life now, because if you stay here, you'll probably die of hunger.

As you look up in the void-black sky, you identify the Big Dipper, which points the north.

You follow the direction the star points at, finally seeing a bit of land in front of you.

You try your best to approach the land, and you actually succeed, you get pretty close to the beach.

You step out of the boat you made with your own hands, seeing after a long time the place you used to live.

Hi guys

It's been a long time since I've posted a chapter, so here a lazy chapter.

I would write more but the nausea is kicking in, so it's better to write later, I guess.

Bye :)
