Say ‘Ahhh’

He awoke with a scramble. The darkness of the forest still surrounded him. He glanced at his watch. 

12:30 am

He didn't quite know how long he had been out. His watch was moving at a snail's pace. His head naturally started to spin in circles as he tried to shake off the sleep feeling. His nose smelled something next to him. He glanced over and found the large bird cut in half. Purple blood was oozing out of it and the spikes on its wings were in the middle of regrowing when it had died. 

He forced himself up onto his feet. He staggered left and right, trying to find his balance but never found it. He leaned against a tree and took a deep breath. He didn't have his katana nor his scabbard. They must've fallen out of his hands and scattered somewhere in the chaos.
