Not Supposed To Be Here But Here Anyway
CHAPTER FOUR
I was walking…err limping.
My ankle still hurt like hell, but I was walking it off…sort of.
The mud on my hair and body was dry and cracking on my skin, making me itch. So I scratched as I walked not really knowing where I was going.
I hope I run into Isabelle or Joe…or even Nikolai, the doctor though…what's his name? Anyway I don't care to run into him. He doesn't have any guns or weapons so basically he's useless.
I whipped at my forehead as sweat ran down my neck; did I mention it was pretty humid around here?
I started to regret leaving my back pack; at least there I would have some water. Maybe if I got lucky I would run into a stream or something.
I was also hungry, but I was afraid to eat anything, might kill me.
As I continued my aimless walk through the strange jungle I didn't notice until the last minute that I had in fact walked right back into the camp of the big, evil, invisible hunters/killers that were trying to kill me and my friends….well if you could call Joe, Isabelle, Nikolai and the Doc friends.
Biting my lip, I stopped, looking around nervously for any of the killers.
Finding none, I started walking further into the camp.
I startled as I stopped in front of a skinned body. A human one I might add, hanging upside down on a tree…..it was Mombassa.
I almost puked my empty guts out but instead turned away from the gruesome scene, my eyes threatening to water. I liked him.
I made my way past all the skins and heads and stopped in front of the alien tied to the pole.
Its head was down and its dreads covered its face.
I squinted my eyes at it, before looking up at the sky, it was getting dark and that meant I would be all by my self...in the dark.
Bringing my eyes back down, I jumped when I found a pair of very intelligent grey eyes looking back at me.
He {that's what I'm assuming the gender is} growled softly at me, low and threatening.
I took a step back thinking; I was all alone, being hunted. This thing was obviously captured. And he looked like he could fight. But what would he do if I turned him loose….how was I going to turn him loose? Those chains wrapped around him looked pretty wicked and un-breakable.
But first things first.
I stepped closer to him and growled at me again, flaring his mandibles at me in slight aggression.
I stopped, "hi," I said softly.
He clicked, cocking his head to the side in a questioning manner.
"You want to get out of here don't you? Be free?" I asked him, looking around nervously.
He clicked again, staring at me with his grey eyes like he was studying me.
I bit my lip, "you do understand me don't you?" to my surprise he gave me a curt nod.
I smiled, pumping my fist in the air whisper shouting "yes!" he clicked at me again, grabbing my attention.
"I can set you free, but you got to promise me a few things."
He did nothing, "Alright, don't kill me and don't use me as bait for anything."
He raised his would be eyebrows before letting go a few clicks and chirps.
"Okay then," I turned around trying to look for something to cut him down with when I tripped.
"Damn it!" I cursed; looking back at the thing I tripped on, it was this ax/knife/sword thingies.
Perfect!
I got to my feet again and picked up the thing, feeling the heaviness of it in my hands.
"Alright," I mumbled, lifting it up like a baseball bat and swinging.
I hit the chain, but didn't break it, so I swung again and the second time it hit it, the chain broke….making the alien fall….towards me.
"Ah!" I yelped jumping out of the way just in time when the poor guy did a face plant in the dirt.
He grumbled before getting to his knees and standing to his full height.
"Wow," I whispered, he was really tall.
Suddenly while I was gawking at him, his arm snapped forward and caught me by the throat…..well shit.
