The Rangers Descendant Book One: Destiny [COMPLETED]

Chapter 15: Why Do All Good Things Come To An End?

As I moved, it was no Twilight run, nor any kind of slow walk-  it was one where I ran full speed, but I was not any faster then before, but more like in-tuned to what I was doing. Have you ever read a story and been so interested in it, where you read and read, and read, but it seemed like to time passed- then BOOM! Hours have passed. It was a similar situation, where I ran like crazy, but I truly thought nearly no time had passed.

When I arrived back to the cabin, well to be precise, the land it was on, I noticed several changes.

The first thing was the corpses like seriously, they were scattered everywhere. Blood basically made the  ground become hundreds of shades darker, and in some places, puddles had formed. Froya littered everywhere.

I walked past the corpses, and unto the steps. The first thing I saw was a head, Groya's head. His body was a few feet away, with at least 10 or 12 holes in it. Not sure what from.

Passed his corpse and to the door, I looked inside. Disheveled, everything was either broken or out of place. Nothing was missing, well almost nothing.

One of the things was Master. He was missing from his chair, but by it was his alchohol flagon.

I sniffed it a bit, but after, I learned what was inside, blood.

The other thing was Mira. She was completely gone.

Dealing with this, I was neither sad nor cried. The main reason was because I thought if I didn't find Master, then that meant he was still alive.

The other reason was because Mira not being here, either, meant maybe she was not dead. But by god, the smell in this place almost made me question WHO was alive.

At 7:05 I sat down in the chair, picked up Masters alchohol flagon, and took a drink, sweet god it tasted good.

2 days have passed since then.

During those two days, I did not sit by idly, nor leave the area.

I searched for clues as to where they had gone.

The only thing I found were my old workbooks, and in them, on the last page, was one word, east.

Now, as for what I spent the time after that doing? Cleaning up the mess, packing food (blood) and I checked out what had changed in me.

Let me list them.

1. My eyes are now almost black, the pupils that is.

2. Im a lot less muscular, but definitely stronger.

3. My mark on my arm is a full fanged skull, but now its eyes show, and looks like a snake skull.

4. 2 of my front teeth are longer, but not by much. Depending on my mood, they grow or shrink

5. My mind itself moves at a faster pace... and the images I can think up become more livid.

6. My body itself was a few inches taller.

7. My perception of reality changed. This is not something philisophical or anything, just it is what it is. I mean it literally changed. Like, I can see many, many times farther out into the distance, but one of the biggest things different is, before, it would be blurry. But now? It's clear as day.

8. At night my throat burns like hell, and makes it hard to talk if I do not drink something. I see better then before, but not even close to as well as during the day.

9. The day hurts. Literally hurts. I can be out in the sun but my god, it freaking hurts. I mean truly. Imagine being stung by bees in the same spot, over and over, and the pain only multiplied. It was that bad.

Now, after these days passed, and I cleaned up everything. I went back to where I discarded my greatsword at before. Although it was a tad dirty, it still felt amazing. Not even close to as heavy, though.

I came back to this place after that, put on my 3 swords ( greatsword and two longswords) my bow, daggers and I placed 6 throwing daggers inside my shirt, arrows, 2 quivers worth (150 in each quiver) extra leather straps, Masters money pouch, his 'alchohol' flagon, and I grabbed arobe Mira got me. It looked like that of a desert travelers, hid most of my features. Finally, I left east.

My first stop, Grandpas farm
