This has been the worst day of my life. I stop and think, hey why don't I just go back out? Smart idea. I retrace my steps to where I entered. I step through the tree line where I came from.
Nothing but more rainforest. "Agghhhhhh!!!!" I scream and kick the dirt. I slip and fall. "Ouch". I'm such an idiot. Well since I can't find my way out I better just find food and shelter. And maybe get a weapon. I start walking. Everything looks the same I might just lose my mind at how similar it is. I find some berries that look like grapes so I figure they are safe. I put some sticks and make shelter. It starts to drizzle. "Well that's just great!" I yell as I climb into my hut. There are a few leaks in my shelter so I scoot to a dry spot to get some rest.
I wake up and it's still raining. I get up to gather more berries. I spot a clearing. That's strange. Leaves rustle. I crouch down behind some shrub looking things. Weapon find a weapon, I say to myself. A stick is the best I can manage right now. Keep calm, you probably won't die. At least not now. Something seems to know I'm here, but hasn't fully acknowledged that. Or I might just be crazy paranoid.
It comes out of the brush. It seems to be a pig sorta thing. Relaxing, I get a closer look at it, my hand outstretched to touch it. It pauses.... then goes crazy. It starts charging at me and trying to bite me. I scream as I stumble to get my puny stick. " Take this!" I smash my stick on the pig. Nothing.
Dropping the broken stick I take off to a sprint. After a minute of twisting and turning around the trees and vines I find a hut. I sigh. Hey, you found your hut again, I tell myself. I pick berries off the nearby shrubs and put them in a basket inside my hut. I grab some vines and a rock to put near my hut. Picking up sticks I sort them from length. Longer ones for the hut and spears, and shorter ones for daggers and utensils. And a mini pile of rocks just to throw at things.
After a long days work I finally got my hut fixed and more stable, my weapons done and sharped, and some berries for a few days time. I grab some leaves and wrap them in vines for a makeshift pillow. I lay down and fall into a deep sleep to the wind blowing softly through my hair, knowing that I might live through this jungle. Maybe.
Sorry I haven't updated in forever! I've been really busy. Thanks for reading my story! You guys are great!
