Chapter #4danny and the pack by: Unknown Your name is Danny and today you are running away from home. You just didn’t see any reason to stay. Your foster parents hated you, you were doing terrible in school. There was just something about the society and world that you grew up in that felt wrong. You always found solace in the Harry Potter book series, seeing much of the protagonists early life similar to your own you really related with them. So now with a small bag of clothes, a cluster of your beloved adventure/fantasy books and some food you stole from the house you trek through the nearby woods, trying to come along the nearby highway. From there you would hitchhike to New York and hopefully start a new life there. But something was wrong, what should’ve been a thirty minute trek has now turned into four hours of wandering.
You start to worry as the sun goes down. As the last few slivers of orangey light are swallowed by the far off mountains you start to panic, running through the forest. Like the stupid thirteen year old kid you are you start to yell ‘HELP’ as you run through the forest. Then you stop as you think you see a shadow move in the distance. You look ahead to see some humanoid figures approaching you. You look at the group of figures relieved, these must be some park rangers, they’ll help show you the way out of here. You’re heart sinks when the figure’s talking start to come into ear shot, “Hey, is that a human?” “Yeah… and a young one at that haha.” “Enough of this, no one trespasses on our territory, adult, child, human, sea-monsters or otherwise… let’s give this loitering twerp a piece of our minds.”
The group of figures that must’ve ranged in twenty… no fifty… no… how many of these things were there? The massive group soon forms a circle around you, in the dim light of the forest you gasp as you realize that these things are large hyena people (what you will soon learn to be gnolls). A tall female one approaches you, “So you think you could just walk in our home like the over-entitled human you are huh, runt?” You shake your head scared, “No, not at all, I’m lost.” The female hyena scoffs at you, “That’s what they all say. I hate you humans, you and your kinds over entitlement issues disgust me. Let’s chop down this forest, let’s build a mall here. None of this land belongs to the human species and we intend to keep it that way… so you must be punished.”
She then grabs you, lifting you up and slinging you over her shoulder. They all start marching back for about thirty minutes until you reach a large village. Complete with torches for a light source and wooden huts/cabins, very colonial era-esque. On the way to the village you got a nose full of this disgusting gnoll woman’s gross B.O. and it was putrid, you almost threw up on the way there. When you all reach the village square she flings you onto the ground as you groan in pain, the female gnoll grins, “Now for the first punishment… of many to come.” You look around and see an army of hundreds of gnolls around you, with sweat dripping down your face you look on in terror. What do they plan on doing to punish you.  indicates the next chapter needs to be written. |
