Unlock my Heart

=Chapter 2=

Realizing that I had just said that out loud I blushed heavily, glad that no-one could see me. I walked up to the top of the mountain pass where I saw the blockage of logs. I began with squeezing between two vertical ones and pushing one above me out of the way. I then nudged the left of the two verticals poles over so I could get in easier. After that I was able to lift myself up through the hole and out onto the top of the mountain.

Now I was staring at a cross road with three paths, what's that? Smoke? Are there other people on this island? I ran towards it, only to heavily disappoint myself by finding sulphurous water bubbling…aww…it would be nice to talk to someone…

*Hisss, Hissss…*

Is…is that…is that hissing coming from a snake? I slowly turned from the bubbling, smoking water to face the snake. It looked quite angry, but I couldn't tell if it was me that alarmed it or not.

'Remember Amu, the snake is probably more scared of you than you are of it' I had a flashback of when my younger sister was teaching me some of the things she'd learnt from school. I couldn't tell what type of snake it was, just that was angry. I stood staring at it for a few minutes before I regained my head. I dismantled my fishing rod, taking the main forked branch and placing it over the head of the snake so I could get to the medicinal herbs behind it. After taking them, I cut a gash in the tree above the plant, and almost immediately a white liquid oozed out. Rubber. The white stuff was rubber. I'd have to come back once I get something to hold it in.

Looking up, I saw two paths; one must lead back to the crossroads, the other somewhere else. I couldn't see the top of the right one, there was a small slope preventing me from me seeing it. The other lead to what I could see a bridge. The sloped path must go to the crossroads. I took the left path, the one that lead to the bridge. The ten second that I took to get there made me realize that I'm alone, there's no-one else here with me, apart from my hallucinations, the She-Devil-Ghost, and the She-Angel-Ghost.

At the bridge I found no bridge, just the remains of one, which lead to the bottom of a huge mountain, maybe a volcano. On the ground I found a narcotic plant, which I could use for sedating a large animal, and a dead rat. I could tell it was dead because it smelt, and there were flies buzzing around it. There was another path leading uphill, so I assumed it went back to the crossroads. I walked up the hill, to the crossroads and I searched around or anything I could use, like a hibiscus flower, and a young palm tree frond. I skinned the flower to get to the tough fibres underneath, and discarded the rest.

There was one path left, the forth going back to the beach-mountain pass. I slowly walked down it; to come across another crossroad, with three new paths, the one on my right went to a small Pine tree forest, with only seven to nine large trees, the one in front of me went to yet another crossroad-like area. I couldn't see where the other path, the one on my left went, so I went down that one

It came out to a small area with bamboo and clay.

"OH MY GOD, WHATS THAT!"I jumped back and brought one leg up in front of me. My hands flapped wildly in front of my face as I stared at the large animal footprints in front of me in the red clay. I could tell that they were definitely a large cat of some kind. My liking to the island suddenly dropped, I mean, who would like to stay on an island, anywhere with a large animal, by yourself? I waded a little into the water to see if I could see anything that would be harmful. Nope. I went back onto dry land and spotted some pieces of bamboo that I thought I could use, but I left them there until I found a place to stay on the island, and It wasn't like my backpack wasn't already full.

I went back up to the crossroad and took the path in front of me or the one to my right if I was standing on the path that went to the beach. There I found pine kernels on the ground and a… series of steps leading up to a big old… windmill, I think? A whole section was almost completely missing from the staircase, so I deemed it unclimbable. I also saw a long length of vine that I thought I should leave, because it would me more useful it I cut it up higher than I could reach.

'Huh? I know! I could use the brick mould from the steps and the clay from the clay-and-bamboo area to makes brick to fix the steps!' I turned around and ran back towards the clay-and-bamboo area. I took a big double-handful of the clay and ran back towards the beach, to my little fire. I stumbled a bit going down the mountain pass but otherwise I survived, I thought I would fall on the blockage between the mountain pass and the top of the hill, but I didn't!

When I reached the fire I dumped the clay on the sand and moulded two bricks, I placed them in the fire and went back up to the clay-and-bamboo area. I'm getting tired of saying that, I think I'm gonna call it the… raw materials area? I dunno maybe I should just stick to bamboo and clay? What a pointless conversation with my conscience. Bamboo and clay it is then.

I reached the clay and bamboo area and took another double handful. Run, run, run, to the beach, mould bricks, run, run back for more clay, run, run, beach, mould, run, run, clay, run, run, beach, mould, and so on. I made a few more trips back and forth till I had about 20 bricks. (A/N This wouldn't actually work, as the fire wouldn't be hot enough to actually 'cook' the bricks, Google it.) I had made twenty bricks over a large number of hours and it was twilight. I then realised that I now had to carry all the bricks back up the pass to the bottom of the windmill. I groaned loudly.

I was determined to fix it though; I wanted to know what else was up there! But, as it was twilight, I decided to go back down to my little cave and get some sleep; there was no way I was fixing the steps at night! With no light! My stomach growled again for the second time that day. Walking back, I looked around for any others signs of recent human life….I'll explore the rest of the island tomorrow, maybe then I'll find someone…

Little did the sleeping girl know that she was being watched. Curled up in her small alcove the two-faced girl watched her.

'Just like me' she thought, 'All alone, on a deserted island…its painful to watch someone else go through this'

'No…she's not alone…she has that boy…he washed up around the same time…not like me at all…' she sighed.

'And sadly, the blue-haired boy looks almost exactly like my younger brother…'
