Further Adventure

My brain did its thing, and i found myself in a dark forest. Horror took over me , I couldn't see anything. I just decided to lie down flat as that was the best thing I could do , I heard the sound of several forest beasts from everywhere.

Then, terror breaks up into my brain like a child suffering from war trauma and ate me up like cancer. I couldn't stay there, so I stood up , I felt the ground beneath me. I picked up some and smelt it , and the strong metallic smell of blood sent shivers down my spine .

I slowly stood up and closed my eyes for more focus, I walked slowly through the forest, touching and smelling each thing, and I kept my ears alert for any dangerous sound . I felt the strength of the natural and deep forest filling me up ,it was mysterious , wild, and fierce.

I picked up an elongated thing, which seemed to be a stick, I was in the beast world, so I needed to learn how to defend myself without using my eyes . So, I held the stick with all my strength, and I started striking the barks of trees let by my spirit and the strength of the forest .

Days and weeks passed by and I continued training, one day the five trees I kept hitting fell off , so I knew I was ready to go towards the interior of the forest to search for its exit. I ran into the forest feeling and letting my spirit guide me. I felt a strong aura from a far it was surely a high-class animal.

I ran towards it . During the past months , I had placed sharp stones at the ends of the stick, and they were as sharp as blades. I became wild, and I ran towards it , I teared off its flesh, and it hurled me very far , I came back and fiercely pierced its eyes , and then I cut off its head .

I removed its canines and its majestic fur and placed them over me, I felt power flowing in my blood and aura. Then the lion came back to life as healthy as ever with no bruises or scratch, I became terrified , and it came and curled its body around me and said to me.

“ In times of tough situations, a change in techniques will be required to pin the lion to the ground ”. I smiled at it, and light filled the forest . The forest was beautiful in daylight.

I saw fast flowing rivers with beautiful and healthy fishes. Broad and beautiful trees with green leaves, awesome and juicy fruits which hanged on branches and the lion said again “ Overcoming tough situations gives birth to a better version of ourselves ”.
