One Will

Chapter 3

The moment the horn went off signaling the portal summoning Aien was looking pretty bad. He tried not to barf, as we went through security, And as we ran out of The House he could barely run he was so weak. As we passed by the forest I dropped back pretending to fall, and when all eyes were off me I slipped into the woods, Aien close at my heels, stumbling his way through the dark woods. When I got to the clearing in the woods that I was looking for, I turned around, and winced. Aien was bent over at a tree retching and gagging.  I strode over to the hologram of giant sagging willow tree. Its leaves rustled, and the crackling sound of the video projection made it seem sad. I took a deep breath and stepped bravely into the picture of the tree. Now normally this would have shocked me half to death, but instead of doing that It vaguely tickled at the points of my spirit capsules. Vines hung down creating a sort of woven hovel. Below that lay a deep hole in the ground that I had dug over that 13 years of running, fighting, hiding and killing. I had stumbled upon this wonder of nature the first day that I had been let into the W.O.R.L.D, 13 years ago when I was running, terrified from one of the larger grunts, and accidentally stumbled off of the worn track formed by millions of feet of millions of scared learners trying to get away from terrors of the accursed woods.
