Disclaimer: I own nothing…besides Page

Anyway, I felt that was not one of the best ways to start a story in chapter one since I only introduced two familiar characters, but after this chapter, it will get good I promise…just wait until I publish it next week. Any who, ENJOY! :D

Chapter 2: Survival

…Pain…Pain…More pain…ooh, hey there is some relief about ti- it's gone…pain…bad pain.

I look back at my village, which looks like a wreck. Buildings is toppled over, from the distance I am at, you can still see blood stains, and the ground looks like someone decided to make a giant chessboard but accidently crumbled it up. Well, at least I know how to defend myself. I do feel bad for my villagers. It was not very big, so I had a good amount of friends. *Sigh…How dare she. The villagers were good innocent people that she took the lives from just because we live in some sacred forest. What exactly did she mean by destroying it anyways? Sure, we cut down a few trees here and there, but it was only to build shelter and make the village grow bigger…and now look at it. She destroyed life in order to save the one without heart, emotion, and personality.

I stopped to look at a random tree in the wilderness and kick it.

(Flash Back)

Page runs through the village hoping to find an exit. There were too many plant monsters for that shining blue light to deal with. Whatever it was, Page no longer cared. He saw enemies blocking his way again. Even though the Bow was more powerful, it did not have the push-back bonus the crossbow haves. So page used his crossbow instead. He shot an enemy and the arrow knocked it back. Another plant monster appeared out of nowhere and was about to shoot Page. Page used the blade on his crossbow to slash the monster. The monster was split in half and disappeared after that. Page could not believe that the blade can finish the monster with one hit.

"…Time to kick some MAJOR ass now!" He said as he confidently rushes towards other monsters. That's when a strange figure with blades as his arms attacked Page by slashing one of his legs. Page quickly lifted his leg up. He wondered why his father gave him this strange machine on his boots. When he lifted up his leg, he bought it back down on the monster that attacked him.

THUD!

The enemy disappeared into glowing leaves like the rest when they die. "So, my kicks and slashes are stronger than my ranged attacks…interesting." Page said as he can see the entrance.

He was just about to start running until the ground started to shake. He tried to balance himself as he tilted and hopped to the left, the right, forwards, backwards, any direction you can think of like a marble on a rapidly tilting board.

Then he saw it…more enemies. He sighed and then rushed towards them. He slashed one, kicked the other, stomped the third, shot another, and finished him off with a stab of his blade on his crossbow. More and more enemies were surrounding Page as he continues to send them flying back the way they came or slicing them in half. Page is once again only human, so he was getting tired, and tired, and more tired, as the never ending stream of plant monsters rushes towards him. As they slowly circle around him, he was on his left knee panting heavily. The ground started to shake more, and more, and even more violently than before. This was actually to his advantage because the shaking created a ramp he can use to jump over most of his foes. He runs, jumps, and land on his feet and started to dash. A hail of blue arrows showered upon him. They were hitting all of the green plants for some reason. As he dash and tries to make his exit out the village, a purple energy sphere hit the ground before him, and created an explosion. He landed on his face with his body covered by boulders. A humanoid figure ran up to him, looked and down in concern. The mysterious guy looks to the sky as if he was talking to someone. The ground started to shake and the boulders headed down the hill along with Page. The unknown person tried to grab Page before he fell with the boulders.

(End Flashback)

"*Sigh…stupid purple blasts, stupid boulders, and stupid…whatever cause us to fall when in the air…I suppose I should be happy. It is a miracle I'm still alive after all." I said to myself.

My brown pants are now torn, but luckily my black shirt is only dirty.

I AM happy to find a big stick in the forest. I carved it so it can have a smooth handle and used it to help me walk. I cannot walk really well without it now considering how tired I am.

I still have one more question…"Where am I?" I also have one more problem…"Where do I go from here?"

My body is just getting on my nerves right now. My arms and legs are screaming at me about how much rest I need. My head feels like it is about to overload and explode with all the thoughts in my head. My stomach feels like it is drinking the blood from the rest of my body because of how hungry it is. Then I saw it, a deer. I knew my slow and buff arrows probably won't hit it, so I used my crossbow. I waited in the bushes, aimed carefully, and launched an energy arrow.

THWUMP

"…Bingo" I said with a grin.

I gutted, cleaned, and prepared to cook the deer. With rocks and wood I found in the forest, I set up a fire and a camp…well one without tents at least. The deer was cooked and ready to be eaten. If I was any hungrier, I would have eaten it raw. I climbed and dozed off in the solid uncomfortable tree branch and slept.

…Somehow…

I guess it was the pretty moon that allowed me to relax.
