Project L.I.F.E

Hey, guys i'm back...sorry for the lateness


Schera

When i opened my eyes, i quickly stood up and feltmyself in a tight space enough to stretch my legs. I suddenly held my arm and found a large bandage covering it. My arm was mutilated with a chunks rip off from the skin. When i touched it, i suddenly jolt upward from the pain.
I raise my head forward and use my uninjured hand to find the entrance. it was barred. As i put my finger outside, i felt a sharp rock and a huge gust of wind. It must be that i am in a cavern. I quickly put my hand down when i felt something and i did. The light seemed to blacken for a moment and came a sniff.I leaned back and took hold of a knife that was still luckily tuck under my torn robe. But i stop and decided that it would be bad if i killed it....i don't know if there are more around. The sniff stop and the creature yelped something before it left.

O.K. I guess I am back. My brother threatened my life! What else could I do?

SASS: Fire“What is this?” I asked.
“Looks to me like one of the others were caught by the monsters.” Said Brianna. A branch cracked behind us.

“I think we have company” I spun around, but I couldn’t see anything. We stood back to back each ready for an attack. My heart pounded in my chest, and I was sure Brianna could hear it. Nothing moved. I was about to relax my stance when four monsters surrounded us. Time seemed to stop. I could see every detail of their ugly bodies. Moults gaping open saliva making their yellow teeth glisten.

I heard a scream from Brianna, but couldn’t turn to look. Two of them charged at me. I made a wild leap to the left. The beast turned just in time to snatch my leg. I felt a heard a sickening crunch as he threw back his head and let go sending me sailing through the air just to crash into a tree. I grabbed threw one of my daggers hitting it in the neck. It seemed as though I had it a soft spot. The beast wailed, and began to rampage in pain and anger. It was deadly, but blinded. I quickly climbed a tree, then jumped on top of him.

For a moment my mind thought of my ankle, it felt good as new. Then he began to twist and kick trying to get me off. I held on for dear life stabbing his neck over and over again. He started to drop into a roll, and I jumped off only to face another one. It was smarter then they last one. Jumping in to give me wound then jumping away before I could react. It had already deeply cut my shoulder and hip when I faked stabbing him when he was about to strike. It slowed him enough so that I could. My aim wasn’t perfect, but I did hit his face. I yanked sideways cutting the inside of his mouth.

He howled, but wasn’t stopping. He kept up his tactic even more alert then before. I knew I couldn’t last much longer so I started to lunge at him slowly making his face into a bloody mess. The final strike was across his eyes. He turned then running into the forest tail between his legs. I didn’t gloat long though.

I glanced at Brianna. Two monsters lay at her feet, but she was covered in blood. Her arms trebled as she slashed with her Machete. Why didn’t I realize that if I was fighting one she was handling three? I leaped over getting the monsters attention. I killed it after a long struggle. As soon as it collapsed I ran over to Brianna hoping she was alright.

At first I thought she was dead, but then I saw her chest moving up and down. As soon as I knelt beside her my whole body got that tingly sensation again. What was about her? I couldn’t do anything, but lay her in a patch of grass. I sat by her tears making streaks on face. After about twenty minutes of complete silence I saw her mouth move. I listened as hard as I could, but only heard two words.

“Take it”

She reached up with her had to a necklace around her neck. Then whispered again,

“Take it.”

She closed her eyes, and took one last shallow breath.

My thoughts stopped. I turned numb. My actions had nothing to do with feeling. I stood up and collected my daggers that were still stuck in the beasts. I unclenched Brianna’s hands, and took her bloody machete. My hands shook as I unclasped her necklace and put it on my own neck. I pulled her under a tree and covered her with dead leaves. Once I had started walking again all my pain returned, my arm and leg felt like they had been broken, but the rest of my wounds were only a dull throb. They seemed to have stopped bleeding.

Randolyn

I did what made sense- ran. And as I ran, I could hear people, but I couldn't make myself stop... and even after I had left the creature back there, I still ran. Suddenly, I heard, "Take it... take it..." and I ran into a clearing. KK was huddled over the dead body of a girl.

"What happened?!" I asked.

sunstarfrozenlifem, I am ignoring that post because it doesn't really go with my post please read it again.

Um you're lying down with the dead body of Brianna. How does that not work?

I did say,

Once I had started walking again

But I will work with you. How about you come in when I just finished covering her with leaves. . .

"What happened?!" a voice behind me asked. I didn’t even have to turn. It was Randolyn. I just sat there numb. I turned

"she died" I said my voice flat not showing the storm inside me. I got up and started to walk away, but felt a hand on my back. I turned whispering.

“I let her die.”

That’s when all the emotions poured out. I collapsed and began to sob. I hadn’t cried sense I was 6. I rocked back and forth. I held my legs up to my chest pulling them tight. I felt arms around me, but I didn’t care. Nobody could tell me I didn’t let her die

Randolyn

I put my arms around KK as she cried about the dead girl. The one person KK needed to comfort her and tell her it was alright was dead. And, no matter what I said comfortingly, I knew just from the scene... that if KK had been stronger, acted quicker, they would have survived.

But I was her friend. So I lied and said there was nothing she could have done. I lied.

I lied for KK.

I was slowly coming back. It was dark out... Must night... How many days have passed? I tried to sit up but my leg shot pain up my leg and everything went black again.


Light? It is shinning in your eyes. My leg is still pretty bad and my face is covered in blood from my nose which feels broke. I sit up and look around alright though. The creatures are still laying dead. My stomach is growling and my mouth is dry. I need to get off this cliff.

After about an hour I finally sit on the ground... Darn leg. I need to find water... Stumbling off down the hill.

KK

My eyes are red and puffy. I watch the flames. The sun is high above us and I could sleep. So much has happened since morning. I replay the fight over and over in my head.

KK’s eyes were red and puffy. She watched the flames not really seeing them. The sun was high over the sky and she could have slept. She replayed the fight over and over in her head trying to find a way she could have saved her.

The fire took the shape of the battle before her eyes. She sighed and stared at the ground instead.

“How are you doing that?” Randolyn asked eyes wide.

“What?”

“The fire it looked like the wolf beasts and they were attacking two girls. . .”

“I didn’t do anything. Your eyes are playing tricks on you.” KK was surprised by the comment.

*Since I don't see any logical way to heal from a broken leg with Brianna gone. I think I will leave it open wether I died or not...

Farix:

Finally I groggily woke up drenched in water. I coughed up the rest of the water that was in my lungs and opened my eyes. There was beach all around me, but when I tried to get up I cried in pain because my leg hurt horribly. Looks like I would be here until either someone found me or I died. That's when I started yelling for help.

Randolyn

“I didn’t do anything. Your eyes are playing tricks on you.” KK was surprised by the comment, but didn't say anything. We fell silent for a moment.

"What do you think those things are?" KK asked softly.

"They're like wolves," I said cautiously, "But.... human. It's what made me hesitant to fight at first. I think they're being controlled. But they have no mercy."

Soooo Carissa can make different shapes with fire. . . . She doesn’t know it though.

Carissa
"They're like wolves, but.... human. It's what made me hesitant to fight at first. I think they're being controlled. But they have no mercy." Said Randolyn. He seemed on eggshells around me ever sense . . .

“I wonder if they have killed anyone else.” I sighed.

“Probably, it seems like there is a lot of them, and they are not that easy to kill. How did you get out so unharmed?”

“Unharmed? My arm is in a cast and you think my ribs are broken!”

“But, all your cuts seemed to be healed there is barely scars. . . .” They fell into silence for a moment. Then something came to me.

“Wait, don’t we each have a power? You can get water . . . I can make fire. But, what was hers?” I couldn’t bear to say her name.

Randolyn

“Wait, don’t we each have a power? You can get water . . . I can make fire. But, what was hers?” KK asked.

"I don't know," I said, sighing. "We may never know... why are we here?"

"I don't know. I don't know anything anymore," Carissa said quietly.

"Me neither," I said, looking up towards the sky. "But I wish I did."

KK

The conversation dwindled off.

~~~

A day passed, then two days, a week. We had no contact with the others. No monsters tried to kill us. We concentrated on getting food, making a suitable shelter, and resting. My ribs seemed O.K., but my arm was the same. Randolyn’s wounds healed.

Even though we were together almost all the time we never really talked. We mostly kept our thoughts to ourselves, and survived. There wasn’t much to talk about either and even not talking we completely covered what the others could be doing, the wolf/human things, and everything else that had happened sense we woke up in this dream world.

One cloudy afternoon the rest was shattered. . .

Barbecued wolf men do not taste good. After we climbed out the tree their blackened husks were felled in front of us and I tried using Farix's sword to cut into one but their hides had been toughened and it wasn't worth it. Sara had an arrow notched and we were looking around cautiously when the yelling started. Farix! Dude! Was he trying to get us all killed.

"It's Farix!" Sara cried out happily. Oh great. I was probably in the middle of some teenage romance, her eyes were just glistening with moon dust at the knowledge that her beloved was alright. Give me a sick bucket!

"Oh man, I wish he wouldn't shout so loud." We set off in that direction but approached gradually in case there were more wolf men being drawn by the screams. Fortunately there weren't.

"Dude, you look like a mess!" I announced. Sara slapped my arm and glared up at me but Farix just seemed to be happy that someone had heard. He was staring at my hand which held the sword. "Oh yeah... I uh... found it." I gave him a sheepish grin. Man, was I actually going to have to give the sword back? That sucked.

"I think I've broken my leg," Farix said with a sigh. We stood in silence for a moment and then I realised I was supposed to help him up.

"Oh, you want some help?" Bending down, I offered him he sword in its scabbard, shifted the bag into my other hand and quite badly threw him over my shoulder. He was bloody heavy as well!

We didn't get far that first day and for a few days after our survival was touch and go but we did what we could for his leg and two weeks down the line it started to mend. We stayed on the go a lot, occasionally having to fight but usually we were able to keep the creatures at bay with arrows and fire until we could get away or climb a tree. We'd run low on the food supplies so instead of using them we reserved what we had and tried to keep ourselves fed on fish and some weird looking fruits. It wasn't easy.
