Chapter 3: Forbidden Forest
"I found him." Monica said as she carried David into room 132.
She glanced around and found Henry asleep in a chair.
David seemed to be trembling more in her arms since they came
in the room. "What's wrong, sweetie?" She patted his back.
"Mummy, can we go home?"
Even though it was late and she was very tired, Monica figured
she could handle the drive back. Since her husband was asleep, she left a
message with the secretary for him in case he woke up and wondered where
they went off to.
Monica gently sat David down in the front passenger seat of
the car and buckled him in. He watched her as she went round the car and
got in. She yawned a bit while she started up the car. It would be a long
drive back.
David was staring out the window, watching all the cars pass
by. But they were getting closer. The car was swerving into the other
lane.
David looked nervously to Monica. "Mummy?"
Monica jerked her head suddenly and glanced at him. "Huh?" Her
voice was filled with weariness.
"Are you ok?"
She nodded slowly as started to rest her head on the steering
wheel.
"Mummy?" David leaned over to tap her arm. She groaned only
a little in response to his touch. She was asleep. He kept taping at her
until he caught a blinding light in the corner of his eye. He looked up and
everything went white.
The ear piercing blast from the car horns have long ceased and
the morning light filled the car's interior.
David peered up at Monica's face. She was still asleep.
He slipped cautiously out from under her arm. He didn't know
what she would do to him if she woke up and found him all cuddled up in her
lap. For all he knew she would ring his neck.
Maybe if I bring her some breakfast she won't get mad and blame
the car wreck on me, he thought. He knew he wouldn't be able to make her
a cup of coffee like he usually did, so he decided to go out and pick some
wild berries or fruit for her instead.
He climbed over the seat into the back and grabbed his satchel,
then dumped it contents out before climbing back into the front seat. He
watched Monica for a few minutes before carefully slipping out the door.
The twigs and leaves crunched under his sandals. Nothing looked
familiar. The only thing he recognized was the sound of motor vehicles on
the distant highway. Everything around him was so lush and green. He took
a few steps then looked back at the car. It was a wreck , the front was lodged
in between to large trees, but everything else looked fine.
After getting his fill at looking at the car he wandered down
a path, dragging the satchel behind.
He toddled around for a while until he found a bush of wild
strawberries. "Mummy will love these." He said with a smile. He carefully
picked at them for a while. It was quiet. Too quiet.
All of a sudden he felt something breathing on the back of his
neck.
"Mummy?"
The only response he got was a low growl.
He turned around and met face to face with a large dog looking
creature, the kind that some of the Flesh Fairs would use to chase down renegade
mechas with. David trembled as he started to back away from the snarling
beast.
"Mummy---!"
