Chapter 5: I Can't

All of the village's people are so nice, welcoming me to their island, offering me so many things that I cannot return back. I notice the girls are so happy, the boys are almost as happy as the girls. But I look over to the tall man who calls himself the Professor, and there is something in his eyes that tells me to be wary of him, as if he knows my past. I can't let anyone know what my past entails, they could end up exactly like I was, having liquids injected into me while I was in the tank, or screaming in my cage. I couldn't let that happen, so I had to stay away from them.

I said my goodbeyes afer we finished talking, and they looked sad, espissally Gilligan. I would hate to se him go the most. He had been so kid, his grip on my hand was firm as we shook, parting ways. I let a few tears fall, and left the people and their village. Little did they know I was not coming back.

On my way back to my cave, I thought about how small it was. How it was too small. I needed a place to rest my head and eat a meal, and look for boats or find another way to get off. I couldn't risk getting myself or the others captured, I promised. So, I went up.

I came across a tree that world serve my needs. It was a great, large tree, conveniently places by a giant sphere-shaped boulder. The rock itself was strange, orange-ish glow to it. I decided the tree would be my home.

I climbed to a branch that acted as a chair for me and sat down, looking over at the horizon. It was beautiful, how the sunset made it's colors dance across the sky in so many colors. I lowered myself onto a long branch above the rock that seemed to glow. It would act as a furnace incase I would get cold, the rock provided some heat in waves for me.

I went to get some food. I came back home with bananas and coconuts, which were plentiful around the island. I sat on the low-hanging branch and opened a coconut on my knee. As I did so, a small bird came on my branch.

"Tweet!"

"Hello." I said as I gave the small bird a bit of coconut meat. As I pulled the meat off, it flew onto my legs that I had pulled against my chest. Right onto my knee. I fed her the peace of coconut, and let her drink some of the milk. I response to my kindness, it flew upon my shoulder and acted to rest in my collarbone.

"Goodnight." I replied, as it was dark now, and sat my back against the trunk and fell asleep with my new friend.

I woke up in an awful pain.

My back was exploding in a fiery pain, crawling like spiders had bee dumped on me.

"GILLIGAN!" It was all I knew who could help. "GILLIGAN! HELP!" I screamed, eyes going from blurry to so sharp I could make out each grain of sand beneath me. "GILL-GI.. Gilligan... he-help... p-p-please..." I was dizzy then, my vision going blurry to seeing purple stars, pain now worse than ever. "Please... pl-please... help me..."

And I fell asleep.
