I have never run this fast in my whole life. My feet patter on the forest ground, and I look around to see, to my great relief, Chris and Yoonseo, both puffing as they run after me, and in a VERY bad mood, but otherwise, thoroughly unhurt.
Erin: Thank GOODNESS none of us are hurt! Chris: (Puffing) I...huff...don’t...puff...think this is the time to talk about relief from not being hurt!
Yoonseo: Keep running! (Pulls open map) I think we should head towards the patch of hay over there! We can use the blue-hatted scarecrow as a compass!
Erin: Do you see the ocean-blue tips of cottages!
Chris: Not yet, none of us can see! *Narrows eyes* Wait, I think I can make out some blue roofs!
Erin: You’re right!
Yoonseo: As I said, keep running! We run so fast that we can’t even see our feet moving. That’s exactly the problem. We don’t even notice the jagged rocks that keep making us trip over. And at last, the thing that I feared happens. I skid a bit too fast along the floor, and screech in fear as I fall down.
Zero: Now, I’ve got you, WARRIOR!
Just then, a hard hand claps over my neck. I think that it is Zero, and close my eyes. We just started the journey. Is this truly the end? Then, darkness swarms across my world.
(Thank you for reading this!)
