There was once a child named Sam Grale. He wanted to run away ever since he was five. One day he did it.
This story is how he did it, and how he survived.
"Sam!" His mother yelled, "Stop playing with that stupid instrument!" I quickly put it away, then I hid the instrument.I was starting to get very annoyed at my family. I went out of the apartment, got 5 things: a knife, a fishing pole, bait, my first aid kit, and my small 5-day survival kit.
So, I decided to go to the nearest forest. It was called Arzon. The first thing I did there was take apart my survival kit, and get my flint and steel. Then, I gathered some big rock, put them in a circle, crumbled up some leaves, and put them in the circle. Then I got twigs and put them into a teepee shape in the circle.I got a lot of dried grass and put that by the circle.
I got my flint and steel and scraped them together. Sparks went everywhere!
From this, I lit the dry grass and I blew as steadily as I could, and it caught fire. I threw it in the fire-pit. The fire was warm. I could not believe I could do this with just a couple of resources!Sadly, I had no shelter. I was in danger. I went out searching quickly. I was scared a bear would find me.
I found enough sticks to make a teepee! I ran back to camp, and luckily found it without any checkpoints.
The fire was running out, so I put more dry sticks in the glowing red charcoal. I blew as hard as I could again, and had a bad headrush. However, luckily, the fire started again.
I started making an interesting teepee. Each stick was forked, so it was easy to put together. I heard that the Grale Fruit was near this place. It was nice there was a fruit named after my last name.
The Grail Fruit tasted like caramel apples. It was delicious! I was very tired, and decided to take out a burned stick. The charred stick was for writing on bark.
I took a nap, and I slept for long enough that the stick was cool. I got my first piece of bark and it said "Day one. 10/23/4321: I made my first fire, and got my shelter made."
I was very proud of myself and decided to make a shadow clock. I was stunned to know that it worked! I was going out into the woods to find more sticks to make a storage depot.I found a small amount of sticks enough to make a little depot. I made the frame, then I put the small sticks over the frame, and then put small pieces of bark into the depot.
After doing that I went into the woods to find leaves. If I found any palm leaves it would be extremely helpful, but we are in the woods, not really in a desert. I had to find big leaves. I heard that the Rons Tree's leaves are as big as an elephant ear, cool!
The tree was found in forests named Arzon 1, 2, 3... So it should be easy because I was in the forest of Arzon 25. I found some Rons and I picked their leaves.I went back to camp while putting down checkpoints just so that I could get there when I needed leaves.
I was starving once I got back. I really needed food. I went to get the Grale Fruit and I found it while placing checkpoints, and yes it did taste like caramel apples!It refreshed me in second, I also made a few notes on my peice of bark "I ate the Grale fruit and made a supply deposit."
Chapter 2
I was in a situation, I hadn't had any proteins in a day, I felt a bit weak. I found eggs but I'm not sure which type, but I ate them. It felt like you had a gulp of water after not one day of drinking any. I was amazed at how far I got, but I decided to not make any more notes. So I decided that it was time to move. I made checkpoints on the way so that I would not get lost. If I were to go somewhere else without checkpoints the place i'm going to could be more important, and that's why I make them.
I made a box out of bark and vine. I made the decision to go to the most dark place of the forest, and it was called black valley. It was flat and had a little amount of ron trees around there plenty to survive.
I also saw a Grale Fruit tree, so I gathered the fruit, got some Ron's tree leaves, and got some dark Galactic Frael sticks. I went back to the most widest part of the forest and then set up my sticks into a teepee like the last except a little bit bigger, so it was easier to put stuff in.
I decided since I had nothing else to do I would try to find a creek, but this was a dark lifeless place so I thought for a moment how were there could possibly be a creek." I know this is a pretty lifeless place so I need to find a creek to wash off instead of leaving my clothes outside and hoping that bugs would come and find the dirty spots and eat those away, which did work, but wasn't very effective and it smelled the same, so if there were a creek how I find it in a dark, lifeless, place... It's humid so if I used that small glass jar in my survival kit I could put it over my fire and harvest water from the air but it would take longer to wash my clothes, but if it's humid that water is coming from somewhere, so that means I should make camps each night and do my plan and whenever I find the hardest humidity it means it right around the corner."
I did my jar plan for two days, and I am apparently really close to it already, so i adventured a while, and there it was in all it's glory. I had found it, a big, juicy, fast, waterfall. I just sat there in awe. I went over and washed my clothes and drank the fresh, bright, water. Then I went home gleefully with my jar filled with fresh water.
When I got back home I went into my house and found someone already had. A bear. I had to run of, and live by the waterfall for an hour. I had been so tired I just wanted to take a nap, but no, a bear has to be here just right now.One hour later I went home put my jar into my box and fell asleep on my floor. I had a dream that night were I fought off bears and made a huge base. I had the best dream.
chapter
3When I woke up I said "Ahh, it was just a dream.". I didn't want to wake up, but I did, and I thought I was sick, but it could have been allergies. I went outside and smelled the air. There was smoke in the air. I had noticed that my fire caught three trees on fire. I quickly ran to the waterfall, and chickened out on the fire hoping that it would die out.
I was so tired and hungry I took a nap. When I woke up guess what I found!? A bear cub, right by my good arm, squealing. I just ran. I was not dealing with that right then. It was so annoying.
I said to myself "I want to go back, I hate nature, the city is better than this. I just don't like my family there, I just don't know what to do now."
I was starting to get depressed from that point on. I was scared, I felt sick from meekocks, I felt like I was going to die, but then I thought "Wait, if I'm thinking this only today, then if I wake up tomorrow will it be better?"I felt trapped. So I had no reason to be scared so I just left the dark part of the forest, and found a desert! It looked flat, no fresh plants, with hills about 2 minutes away, and the hills had some kind of wood fort, which is probably why there wasn't any wood.
I walked over to the fort and picked up live bullets, and found a quantum scope! When I got there it was basically this gutter with a fort over it, and it smelled funny, I also met a gang, which weren't very nice. In fact I met one that had such a bad case of wandering eye it looked white most of the time.I didn't feel safe there any ways. I moved back to the area with a small hill and camped there.
If I hadn't have done that, I would be with the group that are in a mountain lion's stomach. I felt good where I was at. Any how, I found some campers that were living in the YZAL SYAD, which translated is LAZY DAYS. They were very friendly, and they had what they call a BBQ. It had ten Hunters roasting! MMM... It was the best meal yet.
