I awoke again for the second time in the bed of moss, knowing exactly where I was. I looked around and realized I didn't have my purple shirt on, my hot pink lacy bra was all that covered my top besides my stomach which was covered in bandages, with red seeping through the middle. As I regained my consciousness the pain returned.
"Okay before you scream, I'll answer your questions. First: my name is Dustin. Second: I am a natura pecus," I stared at him noticing every detail about his face. How his eyes looked like the forest loft, how his short shaggy hair swooped in all different directions caused no doubt by cowlicks, and how his nose was slightly hooked in such a way it looked almost perfect.
"Natura pecus, doesn't that mean nature beast?" He looked at me dead in the eye for the first time since I met him.
"Yes. May I continue? I thought you wanted me to answer your stupid questions!" Pushed myself into a sitting position and faced him implying I was listening, "Third: we're connected." I stared at him bewildered.
"Excuse me! What? Connected? How?" I was so confused.
"It was the only way to save your life." What save my life? How is 'connecting' us saving my life?
