After what seemed hours I managed to find a familiar path back home. I was greeted with my mum in tears holding on to me so tightly that I couldn't breathe. 'Have you any idea the chaos you have caused? What were you playing at? Your father fainted! We thought something terrible had happened to you, what were you doing out there for all those hours?' She exclaimed. I really did feel bad. I caused so much worry and stress, my dad was diabetic so I'm sure it couldn't have impacted him well. I replied with the only thing I think anyone would say at this point, 'I'm sorry, I lost track of time!' She carried on, 'and what? You think that that's a good excuse? I'm happy your back but gosh Mosu, if I found out anything had happened to you I would have spent the rest of my life blaming myself for being so careless.' I just nodded and then went to check up on my dad. He was asleep now, the stress must have exhausted him. I went to my own room and just started reading and before I knew it, I was slumbering. The voice of my mum woke me up calling me down for breakfast and I was hungry so I went down to eat. I could stop thinking about the person that saved me. I wasn't sure if it was even a person. At this point I thought that it could have all been a dream but the worry in my parents faces said otherwise. They told me that they had to drive to a small town nearby to buy some medication and groceries. I thought of this as the perfect opportunity to go and find the person who saved my life so I waited a couple minutes after they left to leave the house and I really did my best to remember the way I was going. I picked up my pace as I didn't want to get myself into, let's say trouble. I turned as many corners as I could to hopefully end up somewhere unexpected, like where the person who threw the spear was. My mind wondered and I thought of all the things that could happened, one being my lost tribe series. Suddenly, I tripped on what I saw was a stone step. I looked up and saw it was basically a stone staircase. Nervously I got up and started walking up step by step, then I got to the top. I was so sure I was dreaming or maybe I was dead and I was in some part of heaven. I snuck behind a large oak tree and saw a whole, literal village in front of me with huts and what I saw to be some kind of tribe.
