Chapter 7

... she saw a panda, a white panda. She was just talking of how miraculous it had been to be in the jungle without seeing any wild animal. But now, there was one before her. Her heart raced fast as her legs were shaky. The Panda just stood in front of her, motionless. That didn't make her feel any better. She just wanted to escape the panda. As soon as the panda dived towards her, she had an andrenaline rush. She swiftly moved aside like a Chinese Ninja, escaping the pounce of the panda.

" What tha..", she said looking surprised at what she was seeing. The panda was fighting a very big python behind her The panda saved her life. She didn't have time to think things through. She just ran as fast as she could. " Before the panda changes it mind, I'll will be out of sight," she thought. Without any idea were she was going, she just kept running. Escaping the panda was her only aim.

After lots of running, she decided to rest. Her heart was beating fast, her legs were weak and she was soaked in her sweat. She fell to the floor with her back to the ground trying to calm her exhausted body. She kept looking side to side, trying to see if the panda or any other wild beast the approaching. " Maybe I should run a bit further", she thought. " The panda could be anywhere around". But her body was not ready to perform any action. So she remained on the ground, motionless. She closed her eyes as a cool breeze blew past her from under the tree where she lay.. It made her more relaxed as the breeze dried the sweat from her skin. Enjoying the atmosphere, she dozed off.

.

She had barely been asleep for ten minutes when a guava fell hard on her, hitting her hard against her knew. With a loud moan she woke up. " What's this, she said as she picked up the guava'. " oh, it's guava!", she screamed exciteddly. There is something to eat at last . She has been under a guava tree all this while without knowing. She ate the guava greedily like a baby grabbing its mother beast for milk.

It wasn't her fault she was been this way, she has not eaten anything since her arrival in the forest. She was really hungry.

After a period of replenishing energy, she took her bag and was on the move. She hoped she wouldn't bump into any other wild animal. There is still a little shock in her after her encounter with the panda. She hadn't fully recovered yet. Another encounter with a wild beast could make her faint. She continued walking and walking and walking and walking. Just when she thought of taking another rest, she heard the sound of people. There were people living not too far away. She was glad to know she wasn't alone. As she moved towards the direction of the sound, she was shocked at what she found. She expected to find a family. But instead, she found a kingdom.
