Tales of the Forgotten [S1]

A New Friend {Ch.8}

{Day 8}

It was raining heavy and the ship were Espinosa was traveling with was getting hit by waves and strong winds, you could hear the creaking of the wood trying to hold the boat together.

Espinosa began to hear a commotion in the top of the ship , he was getting nervous as the winds got more violent and the dragon and elf guards starting to say that there was an intruder in the ship, a dangerous one... something corrupt...

Suddenly everyone was screaming in the top of the ship for help as some kind of monster was taking down their men, but this was different from the other monster they confront and survived from this one was consistent and silent, it was smarter.

But who is he to know since he is trapped here with strangers and they too are in a panic.

Espinosa exclaimed "What the hell is going on?!" He looked around him and then felt as the top of the ship ripped apart in wave of something!

"Wh- What?" He looked to the ceiling but there was not even that, it was the cloudy sky, everyone was in shock, no one was left except them, it was a miracle!

Espinosa stepped out and looked for anyone but it was silent, not even traces of blood or anything that the guards left but now their free? Well kind of stranded, just with a small island some feet away. 

He jumped out of the boat and left the other men in the boat and continued to swim.

"Well, come on, I've got to get to that island fast..." 

He was actually was a decent swimmer and arrived fast and fell asleep to take a quick nap near the shore as he was exhausted, and he remembered about Novi, he felt guilt by not saving  him last time, but he wont overthink it since he has to survive in this island alone for who knows how long...

Espinosa then sighed and said "I wonder how that guy is doing"

Meanwhile...

{Day 9}

Novi woke up from a bad dream and felt horrible, he would be tired, dehydrated, hungry, and in pain, he looked at the sky, and saw the sun while feeling it's heat. 

Novi struggled "I'm done..." He lifts up his arm, and then stretching his hand in the sun's direction. He said "I need help..."

"But... I... Have to keep going..."

He stood up and went too look for rocks and a stick, he needed something sharp because staying in this island was not an option.

He slowly took the materials he need and some rope from the broken boat in the shore, after some hours he made a really bad axe but it was enough to cut logs in a amount of time, and to defend himself.

Now for the next few days he would be collecting few food while taking tree, tree ,tree and tree...

He needed a new boat or raft.

Novi said "I hope this plan works..." while his stomach growled to him needing food.

Novi then sighed "God... Please save me"
