When I came to, I found myself on a
make-shift bed of leaves, in a cave, obviously still in the forest
from the trees I could see outside the cave I was in. I looked around
quickly to see if what knocked me out was around and to my surprise
there was nothing other than myself in the cave. I slowly got up and
started to walk towards the exit and noticed some berries and a cup
of water placed near the exit. I had no idea whether it was for me or
not but being starving and not having much water, I decided to take a
chance and eat and drink what was at the cave entrance.
After I
ate, which was quite nice by the way, I quickly grabbed my bag and
walked out of the cave, being careful of where I was going just in
case whoever knocked me out was still around. As I was leaving I
started to feel as if someone was watching me, it didn't settle
well at all, in fact it made me want to just bolt, and that is
exactly what I did; I ran like my life depended on it but I could
still feel whoever's eyes following me no matter where I went. The
further I ran the more I felt the eyes on me, I had no idea who it
was but they sure as hell were freaking me out.
After running in
the forest for a couple hours I heard the same noise I heard before I
went unconscious, so this time I decided not to run but to see what
it was, I also still felt the eyes on me as well which made me go
further into the forest making me lost, once again. As the noise grew
closer, I was still holding my ground, determined to find out what it
was, when it stopped, the noise and feeling of eyes watching me
stopped, then a great big lion jumped out of the bushes, this made me
quickly forget about standing my ground, but instead bolt like a
little rabbit. As I was running I could hear the lion chasing after
me.
*Why oh why do I get myself into situations like these,
landing into a world I've never heard of, being knocked out, chased
by a lion etc. Why oh why couldn't it just be me back at home
instead I am once again running for my life.* as I was thinking this,
I ran into something soft which made me fall down, I looked up to see
the lion staring down at me with eyes of wisdom is the best way I can
describe it.
"Are you ok my dear? I would've thought that you
would've stayed in the cave instead of going back into the forest."
I just looked at the lion flabbergasted I mean for one the lion
hasn't killed me yet and for another it's talking to me. This is
just way too much for me to handle.
"Come my dear I shall take
you back to the cave and we can short this whole thing out." I was
very lenient to go with the lion seeing as it's a lion, what do you
expect.
"I will not hurt you my child, and I think I might have
something that could help you greatly in the future and the rest of
your life if you just come with me." The lion gave me a look, a
look I knew he was being sincere and that I could trust him, so I
followed the lion back to the cave.
"Oh by the way Jasmine, my
name is Aslan, it is a pleasure to meet you." I nodded at the lion
showing him I heard him and that I accepted his greetings very well.
"Oh and Jasmine, do not worry, I shall give you something that
you have wanted for so long and then you can return to your throne
and help rule your land." I looked at Aslan puzzled, rule, throne ,
land, what the hell is he talking about I mean I'm not a queen or a
princess, Aslan must've seen my face as he quickly replied with "I
shall answer all your question once we are back at the cave." And
with that said we fell into a comfortable silence going back to the
cave I had woken up in with my new companion Aslan the beautiful
lion, well to me he is.
