Hey guys! Hope you enjoy this. Sorry for any spelling or grammar mistakes. I decided I wanted to write and this came out. Check out my other fanfics please!
I opened my eyes slowly. Rubbing the crusty stuff out of my eyes, I checked out my surroundings. I knew I wasn't in my bed for sure. So where was I? The windows were covered, but the soft rumble and the vibration of the room gave me the idea I was on a train. I sat back down on the bed and tried to remember what happened before I fell asleep.
I was back in the orphanage after my last foster parents didn't want me anymore. All the other kids at the orphanage made fun of me. They called me Sherlock due to my deduction skills. They never really bothered me, but it got really annoying. I ran my hand through my dark hair and sighed. Standing up, I decided I would explore this room. Put those skills of observation to some good use.
It was a small room. In one corner was the bed I'd woken up in, next to it was a small lamp. There was a ceiling light that gave off a dim light and a small dresser with a few changes of clothes. I didn't see a bathroom, so whoever put me here didn't expect me to stay for very long. On a small table in another corner were 2 plates of sandwiches and fruit and a water bottle. I reached up and relaxed when I made contact with the familiar diamond pendant resting at the base of my throat.
I searched the ceiling, looking for some indication of an escape. After an hour, I had an internal clock, I sat back down on the bed and bit into an apple. Then I noticed the light bouncing off the apple. I traced it back to a nearly invisible crack in the ceiling. Apple forgotten, I dragged the dresser into the middle of the room and stood atop it. I searched the area with my fingers and silently cheered as I found the latch.
I tinkered with the latch for a few seconds and swung the door open. I swung myself up onto the roof and staggered back. This creature sat in front of me. It was hideous. The creature had five heads attached to a single body. It's fangs were dripping venom. The name hydra popped into my head.
Somehow, my body knew what to do and, in an instant, I had a sword in my hand. I swung at the hydra, being sure to avoid the head and neck. One of the heads lunged at me and I ducked, it's tooth barely grazing my arm. I rolled under the thing and stuck my sword into it's belly. The hydra exploded into dust and then everything turned black.
Please review and tell me what you think and if I should continue or just get rid of this all together.
