We're here, our main cast got their backstory covered and we can proceed to the stories present. Yep, I'm just as shocked as you are, already uploading a new chapter. Let's go!
Chapter 3
Jack
The day was hot and bright, but the only thing Jack was experiencing at the moment was an endless supply of darkness provided by the monster's shadow and a crisp chill blanketing him the way a blizzard enwraps its victims. The boy's legs were weak from climbing endless hours to the top of the beanstalk and once they gave out, he yelled and held tightly on the edge of the cliff using his arms to keep hold. Jack groaned in pain, but his legs would not respond and was left dangling in air. As his face was turning red from clinging on, he heard the ginormous shadow make a daunting sound.
'This is not how I'm going down' (no pun intended). When Jack looked up, he noticed the creature didn't take the time to snatch him and devour him right then and there. The sun then shined onto the side of the creature's left eye, causing it to move back just a bit. It was there the young farmer stopped struggling and took a closer look at its "hideous" face. The meager ray of light hardly exposed much of the monster's face, but as he looked it in the eye, it was… worried? Jack wondered why such a thing would worry for him until his arms gave out. Once Jack felt gravity pulling him back to the land below, Jack screamed and closed his eyes, praying his death would be quick and painless. Along this mentality, he became unconscious.
Inma
The young giantess stared at awe at the tiny specimen. She had heard legends of tiny people living in a world below her and the giants, but that was just that, legends. Inma wanted to get a better look at the tiny boy. She assumed it was a boy from the looks of its hair; it was short and combed in a way girls don't do so. This was as close as she could get without frightening the tiny human, who looked as though he was dealing with another problem. She flinched a little when she heard the human yell but couldn't help but giggle at the sight of his face turning red.
'He reminds me of the shopkeeper and his nose' Inma thought to herself. Just as she was loosening up, the suns glare pierced her on the eye, forcing her to sit up and move back. Once she felt the sun no longer bothering her sight, the giantess was scared to look down in fear the human took off while she was distracted. Although she had made fun of the boy's face a moment ago, she couldn't help but worry for she was aware he was in some sort of pain. Inma leaned closer and was relieved that he was still there, hanging around. Her expression went from relieved to panic when she saw the boy fall right before her eyes. She had no time to come up with a rational thought, but she had to do something. Without hesitation, she swooped in her right arm, forming a cup shape out of her hand. Inma brought her right hand to her face and was relieved the boy was laying in the center of her palm. The giantess carefully brought her left hand alongside her other one and meshed them on the sides to create an even bigger cup. Inma used this time to get a better look of the tiny person and confirmed it was a boy.
"He's so cute, I can just eat him up" She whispered. The giantess doubted the boy would find that remotely funny. Instead, the giantess decides to rub him lightly against her cheek. Inma pulled the basket towards her and rearranged it with one hand with holding him the other. Confident of her sorting, Inma placed the human in the middle of the bag.
"Maybe when he wakes up we can be…friends" Inma said out loud with a smile on her face as the giantess picks up her little basket and skips onwards in an upbeat mood.
Shorter chapter than usual. I know. I honestly thought this was going to be much longer but hey, it happens. Getting back to what I was saying, I got my inspiration from listening to various Disney music. Both official and covers. Thank you Aladdin, The Incredibles 2 and Coco! Before I go, I am going to get this out of the way: I don't like odd numbers. Seeing that lone apple, it was just asking to be written off :P
Having said that, it could also mean a clue. The movies I mentioned; I might write a fanfic on one of them. Who knows?
For now, leave some feedback and let me know where I can go from here.
