I took a twig and started drawing plans in the soft earthy ground then quickly started to look for the things I would need for shelter, I knew sleeping out in the open wasn't a good idea so I started to look for a well established tree, it was easy knowing this area was almost untouched by humans.
I found my trees naming them her name would be Ethena and the other Rida, I got back down in the hole I awoke in not fearing the possibility that I could get trapped down there.
The pieces of shards cut into my bare feat, but I worked thrue the pain.
I searched for about fifteen minutes till I realized there was nothing, then I smiled For the first time since I woke up.
I grabbed my clothed rope and broke a branch off of a older tree, I then took a large chunk of glass out of my back and with that I took down a few vines.
Walking over to a maple tree I used a rock to cut the soft bubble out.
Surprisingly it opened up to a large hollow part of the tree,
Closing my eyes at the gross sticky texture of the sap I pulled my hand out and rubbed it across the logs and branches I had gathered.
Repeating this gestures several times I had a good sized floor, to be safe I rapped the vine around all of this contraption.
I grabbed my cloth rope and used it to help me climb up the twin trees only a few inches away, when I got up I was panting because I also had to carry up my 40 pound half built shelter and died almost five times.
Finally I balanced it between the two twin trees a used the curled vines I carried up on my left shoulder the rope to tie my shelter better to trees.
I hugged the thick branch I was on with my thighs during this hole process.
Finally I had tied the floor to my liking, the extra I used to tie one of each end to the Ethena and Rida not only would this serve a perpous for balance reasons but also for where I would lay the shelter part of it on.
Finally I built the base now all I needed was moss and forest degree, I looked to the horizon the sun would set in about 3 hrs.
I was thankful for having the time, I was on my way to get the shelter part of my shelter when I saw a unknown bird come land next to my fort.
It just stared at me with beady eyes, I looked around maybe I should try my voice?, no.
I kept silent I reached my hand out to it wondering if it would let me pet it, the beautiful bird hesitated but after a minute leaned it's head into my hand.
I gently stroked it's feathers with the back of my hand.
It squaked at me and then I thought back to movies, I grabbed a rock and another thin rock I had brought up here planing on using them to cut things and start fires but instead I roughly took the chance and rote H E L P wide and messily on the thin rock and shoved it in his mouth abruptly.
I whispered to the bird " please your my only hope" then I shewed it away.
I knew a Human could only go three days without water but wasn't sure if the little waterfall of the crystal pond contained it, I knew I couldn't go three weeks without food but I wasn't willing to kill innocent creatures to do this.
I hoped whoever the bird may find would be smart enough to trace back from where it had came.
When I was younger I was always told if you are lost stay in the same place it's easier to find you, in all the fear I had about my family I hoped they were well and alive to and that the rath and anger that had brought us into hiding was gone and had spaired at least one of us.
————-1/2hr later- —————
My hope to servile the night had been finished and a deep fear settled into my stomach making me nocuous what if I was just left here and had passed out of fear and she was still searching for me? What If she had just not came my way yet?!...
Two minutes later I found out that blood, glass shards, and dirt would not be the only thing on my body .no. Let's make it all worse let's throw vomit into the mix.
The pond looked clean, peaceful, kind of serene and I wanted to leave it untouched but my other half wouldn't allow it.
I finished getting all of the glass out of my skin and once again stepped onto the seventh rock where I first looked into my reflection this time I was proud I was a strong survivor, I would have said fighter but I hate violence And I only wanted to be safe and at peace.
I dipped my feat in first the water was surprisingly cool but it was a sensation I could almost love, without even noticing I looked down relizing I was into my neck the rock I was balancing on collapsed and suddenly I was under.
This was an all to familiar feeling but I couldn't remember where from it scared me making a chill come over me.
I reached up trying to avoid the water I was still vanquished in.
When I finally caught hold of the rocky floor with my feat I kicked up with all my might and strength only giving me air for a matter of seconds till I sank again.
This couldn't be how I die it just couldn't, the things around me became fuzzy and I gave my last push.
A soft cold serface slipped thrue my clutches leaving me the bottom of the dream like pond, drowned.
