The Special Mentor Chapter 13

My heart raced like lightning as I desperately sprinted through bushes and jumped across the roots of trees . A vine suddenly grabbed one of my metallic arms, twisting it so it faced a horrifyingly weird angle . I quickly chopped off the vine with my razor sharp fingers, quickly scrambling away . From behind, I heard a whistle pierce the air before a fierce pain, worse then the pain in my arm, stabbed into my back .

I growled in pain as I jumped to the right, slamming into a puddle of mud . My cheeks were scraped by the thorns of the mud berries that hid inside the water . A spear flew past where I was a split second ago, hitting the trunk of a tree . Suddenly, the tree's branches morphed like tentacles, grabbing the spear from its trunk before throwing the spear back to its owner .

A loud thump could be heard before silence engulfed the jungle .

I gasped for breath as I hurriedly sat up, pushing myself further away from the Cursed Tree .

The tree's branches slowly drew back, growing smaller and smaller until it looked like normal branches once more .

How did I get here?

Oh right .

It was because of the Creator's Prophecy .

Suddenly, a shrill shriek filled the jungle at a deafening volume, withering fragile flowers and bushes and angering more than one Cursed Tree .

Suddenly a cold hand grasped my shoulder as an emotionless voice whispered my name .

"Calamitis . "

1 Week and 6 Days Ago

I woke up with my heart pounding against my rib cage . I couldn't help but shiver even though I was covered in sweat .

It was those strange dreams again . I thought they'd disappear since I'm already in Forgoe .

I guess not .

I checked to see if Miceter was still asleep . Luckily I hadn't woken him up . If I had, I would no doubt worry Miceter . Right now, I can't think of an excuse if I had woken him up .

The sun was slowly crawling its way up the horizon, marking the start of a new day .

***

It took Miceter a while to wake up from his happy dreams . I didn't wake him up earlier because of the way he had mumbled in his sleep about chocolate and sports . I chuckled once or twice because of how silly it was .

Miceter stretched before saying: "I'm hungry . "
