Reliving the Questions

Chapter 2, Draft 1

I reread the poem over and over and over again, "West is something familiar but don't make a sound"

This had sounded the most trustworthy to me. I walked over to where Brody was standing, and made eye contact with him. He smiled and grabbed the note from my hand. "I think we should go West," He said.

"That was what I was thinking too."

"Okay well then lets go," He said. He started making his way toward the open land, when he realized he didn't know if he was even going west. So for next 3 hours, we went around the shed searching for something to help us. Any tool would work.

Finally as I mad my way around the shed for like the 40th time, I saw a little scratch on the wall, a scratch that looked purposeful, a scratch that made out to be a design. I ran over to Brody, who was around the other side of the shed. I literally ripped his glasses off his face and ran back to where I originally was. I took the glasses and used them as a magnifying glass. The design made out a small "S".

Then it hit me I ran around to the next side and saw another scratch which made out to be a "W" when put under the glasses. West! Finally I had found it! Out of nowhere a pathway seeped up from the ground. I knew this world had been magical from the start, but I wasn't expecting this to happen at all. The pathway led west and longed on over the horizon. I turned back to Brody and saw his face, he was so stunned.

I grabbed Brody's hand and we made our way down the path.

~Two hours later~

We had been walking for ever but I didn't have a clock so I didn't know what time it was or how much time had passed. I had been lost. The thing was, was that I wasn't lost, I just didn't want to be found. We walked down into an alley. An alley of fear, and pain. It was kind of nice. As I walked in a mellow tone down the alley I had a strange feeling, as though someone was following me. Someone was breathing down my neck. I finally couldn't shake off the feeling of someone following me so I stopped and turned around.

Nothing, Nobody, not a soul in sight. That got me thinking, Where the hell was Brody? I turned in a panicking form. Looking both ways when a great force hit upon me.

I woke up with a great pain upon my shoulder, "Owwwwww."

"Hey?" Said a voice I was unaware about. I tried to sit up but it was no use, I was stuck. I then felt a hand grip onto my unharmed shoulder. I looked up and saw him. I could have cried but I didn't in the confusion. I finally mustered enough power to sit up. In fact without trying I stood up. I felt a tear slowly make its way down my cheek.

I hugged him, I felt his soft touch sooth me into my place again. " Shiko, its been so long, too long."

"Yeah I know, I got stuck in the game."

"How c-cou-could I?! I left you just to be free just to get back to my horrible life. I hated myself for it, and I still do. Oh Shiko I am so sorry I never meant to hurt you. I never meant to leave you. I will never let you out of my sight again."

"Yeah well we need to find your friend before the werewolves get to him first."

Brody! How could I have forgotten?! I guess I just lost myself when seeing Shiko. I should probably explain who he is. He is the person that got stuck into the game with me last time. But only I could escape, he was stuck into the game for eternity.

Anyway back to Plan Brody. "Maybe we could go ahead and walk into the werewolves territory," I said.

"No. They will rip you to shreds and I won't let that happen."

"I could distract them while you find Brody."

"How do we even know he is on the wolves' territory?" He pointed out.
