Chapter 1:
I did it again. I did something horrible, vile, disgusting etc. I ruined my life! My name is Tami. I live in the forest and no one knows I exist. I do have traps in the forest and that is how I fell into this mess! I was training when I heard something get caught in my trap. I decided to go on, capture it, and then cook it on a little fire. Considering I have been living on worms this month, it sounded great. My stomach was so happy. I was finally going to have a cute little bunny or big bear for lunch. Yes! I came nearer to my destination, and saw… an old man dangling from the branch. Ewe… I may have come from the forest but gross. I would never eat another human being maybe if I had to, but not this one. Yuck. He seemingly was impressed with the trap and capable of getting out of it, but did not. He smiled a little weird smile. I came up to him. His smile grew. Scary. Scary. Scary. He was a big pervert. I could not stand his nasty smile, so I kind of punched him in the face. I think a tooth or teeth fell out in the process. Okay, I am not the type of girl who goes around punching old men but this one deserved it. I took him down the trap and carried him home. I am definitely not the type of girl who goes and brings old men home, but I hit him too hard. I went and got some seaweed from the pond and spread it on his face to heal it. A little. He could talk, or mumble. A few minutes later, he began humming. Again, scary, scary, scary. "Hello?" I asked.
"Hi, sweet woman of my dreams!" he exclaimed leaping up and putting his arms around me. BOOM! I, ha, ha, ha, punched him in the area. Haha and a final ha. I felt bad, but there was no way of me putting seaweed on his… I decided that maybe he was drunk. I carried him to a room and left him there, for hours or a day. I did leave food there but it stacked up. I went and got a pail of water finally. I entered the room and SPLASH! He was soaking wet. He did wake up, though. I questioned him a bit. I asked him a couple simple math questions. He finally said something very interesting.
"Hello. My name will for now be unknown to you, but I have to be kind to my savor." he said.
"What?" I questioned.
"You
saved me from that trap when I was a bit drunk, thank you," he
said. "I must give you something very pleasant and
appetizing."
Okay, he has some nerve. He is saying he wants to
give me something really good, in a pervert's mind like his; I do
not want to know what hat is. I told him I'd be back in a sec. I
went to the kitchen and got some homemade pepper spray. I returned.
"So, what was it you were saying?"
"I want to give you a big, new part of the world. Something you might expect or not…" He kept talking about giving me some of this or this. I do not have a short temper, but when an old geyser smiles strangely at you, leaps and hugs you, calls you the girl of his dreams, and goes on talking about giving you something good (probably for his enjoyment, if you know what I mean, wink wink wink), you begin to get irritated. I got my spray in my hand and Sting. He got sprayed. Oh yeah! "Justice is done" I was a bit scared. The old man was a little, teeny bit mad! He asked me what he had done to deserve this.
"You are an old pervert. You smiled strangely at me, leapt and hug me, called me the girl of your dreams, and you go on talking about giving me something really good. Umm… I do not know how to tell you this but you are a BIG pervert. Moreover, maybe a drunk. I will not stand this! Believe it!"
"Ha, ha, ha. Oh boy." he laughed.
"Why are you laughing?" I questioned.
"It's just that you reminded me of somebody when you said 'Believe it'! You see there is this-" he was talking but I interrupted him.
"I'm sorry, but I don't care." I said.
"Please let me give you a gift."
"Stay back, I have more pepper spray!" I shouted.
"No! I would never hurt a woman," he sneered. I am so… scared. He sneered at me. Double yuck. Make that triple!
"Please!" I exclaimed.
"I will give you a gift. It's a one way ticket to a beautiful place and you'll meet…"
"Stop!
I don't want to do anything with you!" I yelled!
"I will
give you a gift. Do not interrupt me, now. It is to a place where I
come from. I came here to get some ramen for a friend, given that in
this world, it is the best! I just want to say I can bring you there.
I won't be with you, but you'll end up there, so do you want to
go?" the old man said.
I was very surprised and startled; I mean what I am supposed to say. Why should I believe him anyways? "Okay, Go ahead, but no dirty work, or else!"
"Go rest, we'll leave tomorrow." he said. I was ashamed. He was telling me what to do, in my house! I decided not to bother him. I packed my favorite book series, Icha Icha Paradise. I packed my clothes and an anklet bracelet I got from my grandfather. It looks like a swirl and then a beak coming out of it, or something. I decided to put it on instead. I packed my ramen, pocky sticks, and health utensils (medicine, herbs, strawberry shampoo, toothpaste, etc.). I will be off to my own little adventure soon.
Wait! Why do I believe this old man? My heart tells me to, but how can he take me to a new planet, or his statements. Wait, I am positive he had the same design that I have on the anklet bracelet on his… Who is he? What did I do? Oh no.
