Chapter 5: The Massacre

I jumped from tree to tree. My knees felt like sticks. I wanted to stop and sit down on the cold grass. I drank out of one of my dad's juggles. It tasted terrible. But unfortunately, was the only thing I could drink. I hunted animals for days. For practice and nutrition. I was going to finish an animal by decapitating it. When I heard a scream coming from a nearby village. I ran to the little town. Unfortunately, It was dark and most of the stores closed. When I tried to enter, I was met by a few Slipar Soldiers. " Why are you not in your hut, Kid? ", a soldier asked me. I was confused. " I'm just looking for shelter. " I told them. The soldiers gripped their rifles. " It's hunting night. ", a soldier told me. " We tell people to stay in their homes because of a creature that has been killing citizens. ". I noticed how the soldiers pointed their guns at me. " And he can transform into anything. ", They told to me in a tough manner. I slowly moved my hand to my pocket. Pulling out my dad's dagger. " Gah! ", a soldier screamed. I don't know what happened. It was just a second passed and almost all of the soldiers were killed in gruesome ways. Neck sliced off like fruit, Body in half, Skulls crushed, and ripped off eyes. I don't understand how this happened. I have so many questions. " Don't kill me, I have a family! ", the soldier pledged for my mercy. I just grabbed my dagger and threw it to the ground. I walked away from the scene. As I walked, I noticed something was in my pocket. It was a note

You are out of luck, Terant.
