Author's note: I'll try to get better at describing features as I write more. In a few more chapters; Jack will be on his way to climbing the beanstalk.
Jack burst from the tent and sent the crowds of joyous people into a panic. They screamed and the band that was playing up on stage looking around in confusion. Some of them missed their parts and the music that filled the auction with joy was now in disarray. Jack could feel his heart pumping, his legs were moving him as fast as they could.
Jack looked behind him to see the crowd of people chasing him grow larger and larger. Their bitter, angry stares shooting right through his soul.
Did he want to do this? Of course not? But how else would he pay the taxes and save his farm. He had no other option that to wait and starve. As he ran, Jack held onto the beans with his right hand.
With these beans, I won't have to worry about starving ever again. Jack thought to himself. Jack was almost in the clear, he ran past clows, food stands, various goods, and a few men in suits. Then, from out of nowhere; Jack felt the wind behind sucked out of him as he was punched in the gut. He fell with a thud onto the ground, and looked up. An odd looking troll of a man looked down at him. The man smiled as various jewels shimmered around his neck and fingers. Rings were placed on all 10 of his fingers. He smiled and jack was blinded by his gold tooth.
"Who are you?" Jack asked as he managed to get to his feet. The brute laughed from the depths of his belly and Jack could feel the ground shaking.
"Me?" The man's voice was extremely deep. It matched his burly and muscular figure, "Let's just say, I'm pretty BIG around these parts." Jack was confused, but jumped when he heard the loud whistle nearly snap his eardrums in half. He used one of free hands to protect his ears.
"STOP" a voice yelled. Jack looked behind him to see around 10 guards chasing him. The burly man laughed, hand on his chest, and let out a howl. Just saw the weather seem to shift from bright and sunny, to rumbling thunder of in the distance. Jack knew something was strange about the weather; and maybe this man had something to do with it. The man saw that Jack was curious and let out a little secret. The man pulled Jack towards him and whispered something into his ear.
"Be careful of the giants." The man muttered softly into Jack's ears, "The princess is especially feisty." The man stepped backwards and grinned. Jack was confused.
"What do you even me-" A heavy weight fell upon Jack as he fell to the ground. His face slammed directly with the dirt and grass below him.
"We have him sir." A guard said to his superior, "Looks like a trouble maker here." Jack recognized the voice of the guard who had it out for him. Jack did admit that he was dedicated to his Job. The guards picked Jack up like he was as light as a feather and Jack frowned at the people he saw.
"As you were." Said a figure as he slipped the guard some hush money. The guard nodded and looked at his troops.
"Come on troops. We have other business to attend to" The guard said. His troops stood by idly. They just saw a bribery occur and bribes were against the law.
"Don't just stand there! MOVE!" The guard yelled at his troops. They jumped and ran back towards the auction. Jack, now, stood there with a man he knew all too well. That creepy smile, those sunken eyes, and those shark like teeth. Jack also saw the man with the gray moustache and cigar off in the distance. The moustache suit stared at Jack with curiosity and eyed Mr. Tooth.
"Poor Jack!" Mr. Tooth said. He let out a "Boohoo" sound as he imitated a fake cry of baby and then smiled, "You're now a criminal!"
