Chapter 7, The Other Side
Chances can be uses wisely. But does that mean the end?
Pulling back the bow, quinn concentrated on any movement. She put herself on high alert, hearing the wind move the trees and the whispers of the animals. She takes a long but deep breath before realising one of her fingers from the string.
Suddenly she hears a leaf crumble, immediately she watches a boar sniff the ground for fallen berries. He's ears twitch, listening for any sighs of danger.
Quinn smiles and pulls the bow back more. "I'm sorry mister boar, but we need to eat. Please forgive me" she whispers to herself.
"Hey cutie, what you doing?" Quinn screams and loses balance, letting go of the bow, causing the arrow to fly the different direction. The boar surprised by the noise, squeals and runs away. Her eyes widen as she loses site of the arrow and the boar.
"Dragon! Y-you baka! I almost had dinner!" she quickly turns around and slaps his arm. He chuckles as her cheeks turn red and puff. "A-and don't call me cute!"
"Why not? You know it's true~" dragon smirked, leaning down to her level. Quinn's eyes widen as dragons face became closer to hers. Her cheeks became a dark red and slowly backed away.
"K-kala!! Dragons being a pervert again!" Quinn squeaks and quickly turned around shouting for him. Dragon stared and sighed. He turns towards the direction the boar went and ran after it.
Back at the camp site the three have made, quinn stomped over to the log, that was placed right next to the fire that kala was building.
"Let me guess, dragon?" Kala questioned with a smirk, quinn glared and blushed.
"Yes... a-and don't look at me like that!" Quinn quickly picked up a pebble at throws it at kala. Kala chuckles as he dodges.
"Jesus your violent..." kala laughed and patted her head.
"I don't get it..." Quinn frowns and hugs herself tightly, watching the fire dance on the wood. "Why would he call me that...word..."
"Word? You mean cute?" Kala moved his head to the side dodging more pebbles, Quinn's puffed cheeks turned a bright pink.
"Y-yeah... that word..."
"Well it's obvious you are, and that he likes you..." kala blankly stared at the fire, using the stick in his hand. He moved the wood around to make the fire bigger.
"Ha ha, that's funny!" Quinn giggles and punches kalas arm lightly, while he stared at her in shock.
"Its not a joke, he really does like you"
"Who's likes who?" Dragon asked, holding a dead boar over his shoulder, surprising both of them. Quinn's face turns a dark red and looks away while kala smirked.
"Oh we're talking about how q-"
"H-how hungry I am! Thank God you got the boar!" Quinn's hand quickly covers kalas mouth, her blush never fading.
"Oh ok, sorry about scaring you when you were trying to get dinner" dragon apologized and set the boar by the fire, Quinn giggled nervously.
"I-its alright!" Kala riped Quinn's hand away from his mouth and glared. Quinn sticked out her tongue and puffed her cheeks.
"Well I'm gonna go ahead and cook this!" Quinn dragged the boar over to a flat stone table they had made, and lefted it onto it. Taking out a knife, Quinn started to him while cutting of the skin.
"What were you guys talking about?" Dragon whispered to kala, who was staring at the fire.
"Its was nothing" kala took out the map from his back pocket and unscolls it. "Tomorrow we'll be heading down the this road for 10 miles and we should see a town"
"Finally, I've been getting bored of being out here"
