hey everyone, it has been a while since i last wrote a chapter for this story, I hope you like this one. i would like to thank the kind critics who have given me a way to better both myself and the story. I would like to let you know that i am still taking characters and that i would love to hear your ideas.
How long was i down there? I asked myself, as i climbed the rope ladder. I began to prepare for the night.
but laying down on the hides i felt something press against my chest. I unbuttoned the pocket containing the letter which I had forgotten about until now and I gazed upon the letter a red wax seal with a strange insignia pressed into it. The paper seemed to glow in the fading light. I could actually read the lettering on the front of the envelope, it said " to the first survivor" written in a very refined print. My curiosity overwhelmed me and I cut open the top of the letter using my knife as to keep the wax seal on the front. The letter read
" Dear Alex
It is time to explain to you the reason that you are here.
You are dead.
you were killed saving the life of your sister as you pushed her out of the way of a car and you sacrificed your life for hers. And it shall not be forgotten as we have given you a second chance at life, and many more.
You are the first of many who will inhabit this ever growing land.
we are not cruel
we will fill this world with many a friend and foe
you are living in a land of the dead
best of luck
J.H.F "
the light from the letters warm glow faded and I placed the letter in my pocket and stood there in shock
"I can't be dead, I'M STANDING RIGHT HERE!" I sreamed at the top of my lungs at everything and nothing at the same time "I'M FLESH AND BLOOD, I CAN'T BE DEAD"and who is this J.H.F to be deciding who deserves to live again? the entirety of it overwhelmed me
i heard a whistle to my right and I looked too see a single firework shoot up into the sky, exploding into a large ball of red flames I grabbed my gear and set of onto the beach in search of whatever set off that firework.
I ran along the beach, tripping over the occasional stone making my way quickly towards the area of the firework i saw this morning I was still walking when I heard a tapping sound behind me, I turned around and drew my sword, the sunlight glimmered inside the diamond like the waves lapping against the sandy shore. The tip of the blade pointed towards, a girl!
"ummmm...hi?"I managed to stammer before she returned a very intelligent grunt and fell unconsciously into my arms, I carried her back to my house, she was snoring lightly so i decided to let her sleep. I somehow managed to carry her up and lay her down on my bed before nightfall and I sat watch over her sleeping body for the night, I listened and watched the foul creatures in the forest. Finally dozing off to the sound of her breathing...
YAY a new survivor has arrived at the island. I sincerely hope that those of you that are reading this are enjoying my story.
