I awake.
But I'm not in my room?
I'm not even inside!
I scramble up as fast as I can and look around.
"What is this place?"
Nothing I have ever seen before, I was in a clearing with tons of green twigs on the ground, as I look into the distance I see a large moutain. I decide to call this direction "North" so I dont get lost in my head. I look down at my feet and I see my backpack from school, my gloves and my scarf in a pile, I also see a sign beside this plie thay says :
"This is what you get."
I attempt to remove this sign for potential resources but it is stuck in the ground. This is when my brain kicks into action.
"(How the hell will you survive this place Phoenix?)"
"I dunno, I guess I'll just start collecting these twigs."
As I opended my back pack I realized I did not have much room, so I took out my school binders and left them by the sign.
"Guess I won't need these for a while... Or ever."
I decide to journey up north towards the moutain while harvesting the sturdy green twigs. As I approach the summit of the moutain there was a tree with black bark and white leafs, and as I aproach this tree it twisted as if it were looking right at me.
"Nope."
"Nope, nope, nope, nope, nope!"
I decided maybe I should walk south instead, still collecting the twigs until I get a bundle large enough for my early survival but not too big to save room for anything else important I find. As I walk back towards the sign I see a someone on the ground, upon closer inspection it is a man in a strange uniform. He wore a long sleved shirt and a slevleless vest over his shirt, he also had a holster but with no gun in it and a satchel around his shoulder. As he awoke he looked over at the sign and then looked up. I looked up too, and saw a light getting smaller.
"(Maybe I should introduce myself, It looks like this guy has potential in helping me survive)"
"Hi, my name is-"
Before i can even say my name the man looks at me and immediately reaches for his potential wepon in holster, when he discoverd he had no wepon he attmpted to throw a punch at me. He missed me.
"(I see how it is...my turn!)"
I kicked him in the leg with my steel toed boot, he grabed his knee and then fell over on the ground. I used this time to quickly remove my thermos from my backpack, I held it over his head and I shouted
"Why should I not kill you right here right now?"
He responded and said
"Sorry, I didn't know that I lost my gun!"
So told him
"Sorry, I didn't know a kid could beat up a man so easliy! Don't try to mess around with me again, or you wont be leaving this planet ever!
As I finish talking to him I hear scream in the sky, something among the lines of...
"OH GOD NO, OH GOD! AHHHHHHHHHH!"
I see someone falling from the sky with a parachute I decide to leave Mr "San Holo", (a nickname I made for him becuase he reminds me of Han Solo, a character from the movie star wars.) before he starts up another fight. I continue waliking south until I come across this... Purple mushy stuff... I decide to touch it, I jerk my hand away quicky as it has given my hand a small burning sensation. At this point I decide to put on my gloves, get my thermos, take out it's spoon an scoop the strange mush into the thermos.
"(This'll teach San Holo the next time he tries to mess around with me!)"
After I collected a majority of this mush I decide to move east along the border of this strange marsh terrain. After some adventureing I find the parachute guy, it seems as if he had followed me here. Upon close inspection he wore a thick winter coat and 2 back packs, he was also eatig a sandwhich which he claimed was the last of his food rations. That reminded me that I had a lunch box and maybe I could find something to eat, but all i could find was one apple and some plastic containers along with my thermos.
As we had a conversation about how we arrived we we saw a small creature arise from the mush, It resembled many of the characteristics of an armadillo. It stared to stare at the parachute man as he weilded his hachet, and the creature slowly aproached him. I tried to sneak up on it from behind but than it turned around and stared to givecme a death stare. The parachute man tried to attack it with his hatched but the armadillo creature retreaded underground and his hatchet got stuck in the swampy turf.
As I looked at the man's survival gear I realized I had some usefull stuff in my math binder like a calcluator, pencils, pens, paper and rulers, so I quickly returned to the sign with the parachute man on my tail to retrieve my binder. When i found my binder put it inbetween my arm and my body and held on to the bottom as I was holding my half eaten apple with the other hand.
I decided to just continue east of the sign because i knew there is nothing but that weird acidic marsh down south. As I traverse I can see somthing large in the distance, I'm not sure if its an animal or a rock but its definity big. As I turn around I see San Holo in the distance catching up as he does not want to left behind. I decide to ignore him and to keep walking east towards the mysteriously huge thing in the distance.
