Home of the brave

chapter 1 new scenery

I woke up in a dry sweat. That was one of the worst nightmares I have ever had. I got up to go to the bathroom but when I opened my door there was a long corridor which didn't used to be there. I backed up scared and confused, while this was going on I must of woken zuki who was stretching on the bed.

"what`s with all the commotion?" he said before jumping onto the floor. I looked down at him for a second then looked to the corridor and pointed.

"I don't think were in Kansas anymore." I said in a serious tone. Usually a person wouldn't quote a famous movie in a time like this but we always talk in humor like that no matter what. He looked where I was pointing confused then his eyes widened and looked back at me.

"Where are we?" he said worriedly.

"I don't know I woke up and when I opened the door it was like this."

We both looked at each other then back at the corridor, we both knew what we had to do.

"Rock, paper, scissors for who has to go first." He said looking out the door.

"But you don't have hands to play with." I said looking down.

Zuki was a mix between a cat and a fox, and before you ask I have no clue how he talks he just does. When I was little I was walking the woods then a shadow appeared and I ran. Eventually I ran into zuki who was taking a nap (he does that a lot, I think it's because he`s part cat but that's just what I think.) I sat next to him and fell asleep myself and when I woke up I was in my bedroom and he was sleeping on the bottom of the bed. We have been together ever sense then and are great friends. Sometimes he thinks of himself as human and tries to do human things which I find cute but he gets annoyed because he can't do it.

"Well I bet if I did have hands I would beat you and you would have to go first." He said annoyed

"Well you don't have hands so neither of us win because we can't even play."

"Fine let's go at the same time." He said in defeat.

"Ok let's go."

Neither of us knew what we were getting into.
