It probably has been already 8 hours since I left the main hiding spot, and in the tree I sat were 1 large rabbit, 2 deers, and 1 goat( surprisingly new to me ) were hanging near me on the branches. I was tired and looking at all that meat near me made me hungry, but thinking on how much I'm going to have to carry to the main hiding.
When I think I was about to take a quick nap, I hear a dog growling and some people shouting. My heart starts racing, what if it's the killers? I start climbing higher, to not be in much view, I feel like they are going to spot the animals I caught and find me but that doesn't matter right now, it matters if I survive.
The shouting and growling start fading away, I start calming down. I start climbing down slowly, I lose my grip and I fall from the tall tree. Will I be dead? I start thinking and saying all my prayers in my head. But to my surprise something catches me, I don't dare to open eyes, I freeze solid when I hear a voice whisper in my ear,"You're not dead, open your eyes, you're safe." The voice was a males voice probably the guy was maybe as old am I or maybe a bit older, but the voice was soothing to listen to. I still didn't open my eyes but I started opening them up slowly, to my surprise this person was dressed all black and all I could see were his eyes, his emerald green eyes. I was quiet until I got out of his arms ran up to the tree and started climbing it at top speed I was up on the first branch, I took my gun out ready to shoot the guy.
"Whoa, hold on, I just saved you and now you want to shoot me. Is that how a girl should act?".
I stare at him quietly but I reply,"Thank you but who are you?".
He starts laughing,"I should be asking you that? When is it heard of when girls fall from the sky?".
"I asked you a question, who are you?."
He starts walking towards the tree, takes out a huge, state of the art gun from the back of his back, he points it at me,"You tell me or I'll shoot you". I gulp I keep my gun out, it's either my life or I just tell him.
"I'm Loralie, I'm 15, now tell me who you are, and please don't shoot me", I say bravely.
He starts laughing again which I think is rude."I could but you're so pretty, I could never shoot a pretty girl like you. And my name is Skylar, you can call me Sky, and I'm 17."
"Okay Skylar, if you put that gun away I'll put mine away, and I really have to go".
"Go where? And I was planning on doing that anyway".
I put my gun away in the pocket on my dress,"Catch", I throw the meat to Skylar, he looks surprised but sorta catches it. I climb down take the meat from him,"bye Sky", I start running to my hiding spot, but then a figure is running with me, I stop.
"What are you doing? I have to go, bye". I say nervously, who is he really?
"Loralie, I could assist you by holding your, uh meat."
"Thanks but no thanks I'm good. Um . . . Sorry I have to go, uh bye". I wave quickly and run, and look behind me a couple of times to make sure he is not following me again, I go to my hiding spot, Kara is already there, she catched 1 goose, we wait till we are called, she helps me carry the animals I caught to the main hiding, lucky for us the killers didn't show up.
I had dinner, washed up, went to the infirmary, my arm is healing, go to my room and I fall asleep. Thinking about Skylar and his green emerald eyes and what he was doing in the forest and why he was dressed in all black.
