A COLD NIGHT.

Tuff..Tuff...Tuff...

It's Cold

Its Very Cold

And Very Creepy.

Joseph slowly walked down from the cold stairs and found himself in a long dark corridor.

This place is too much creepy and cold!!!

As Joseph walked through the dark corridor while holding the only light source in the whole place, a primordial feeling took over his whole body.

Fear. I'm scared!!

And it's so cold, I want something to wear.

Joseph slowly walked through the corridor, the floor was rough, walking on a rough floor while naked legs made it very uncomfortable for him.

What's that??

Joseph looked forward and saw something hanging through the wall. He slowly walked towards that wall and felt a relief feeling.

Finally some clothes, but why are they here?

The clothes were designed for winters, like a big coat made of wolf's fur, pants, and boots. Though they have not been cleaned for who knows how long. It was like a treasury for Joseph.

Why only winter clothes?

There were three sets of winter clothes, starting from clothes for weak winter, it was not very thick. Second was for mid-winters, it was a little thicker than the first one and last for strong winter, it was very thick and very big.

I don't know what I will find out there, so should I take the big one.

Joseph looked towards the big coat and touched its fabric, the clothes were comfortable and were made from good fabric.

It's too heavy, my body is weak, I won't be able to travel much further wearing this.

He turned around towards the first one and touched it with his hands.

It's to thin and Can't protect me properly seeing that, I'm so thin.

He left it and looked at the middle one.

This is going to do the work, still, I'm too tired and can't survive in cold for long.

He took the coat, pants, and boots and got ready. He didn't have any inner for his body, but getting this is also a pleasure in these conditions.

After getting ready, he took the lamp in his hand and walked further out.

That's it!!

Joseph spoke as he looked towards a big wooden gate blocking the way.

He walked towards the gate and grabbed its handle and slowly tried to move it, but it didn't budge. Joseph narrowed his eyes and then tried to open the gate by pulling it towards him, which seemed to have worked as it slowly started to open.

Suss...

Holy mother!!!!

It's good that I have these clothes.

Joseph spoke as he looked outside the gate and saw a dark night with no lights and lots of snow blocking the gate from out.

That's why it wasn't opening towards out.

Joseph touched the snow, which was cold and was biting his fragile skin.

So, I have to walk in this situation and that's also when I'm completely tired.

Joseph looked towards the sky, which was completely covered with long trees, so long that it feels like they reached and completely crossed above the skies.

Well, staying here won't do any good.

Joseph thought inside his mind and walked out while holding the lamp in his right hand and the book was stuffed inside his coat near his stomach.

Step..Step..Step...

Joseph slowly walked through the endless pile of snow reaching to his knee. Walking in it was very difficult for him. There was no light as the moonlight doesn't reach to the ground.

The situation is very worst for me!!

Joseph looked to his right and left with a tired look as the situation is very worst for him. He doesn't have anything to eat, and his body is very thin and weak. This coat can't protect him for much longer as he can catch hypothermia any moment.

I have to find a place to stay right now.

Joseph thought to go back but stopped as he didn't want to go back to the same place where his former self or this body's previous owner died.

I have to find a place here!!

Joseph spoke as he can't stay here for too long. The wind was very strong right now, and the biting cold was making his skin go numb. Joseph was sure if he stayed here for too long, he would meet his doom here.

Joseph started to walk and grabbed some broken branches in the process. Due to his new knowledge, he knows much about plants and woods, which can still burn in this cold chilling wind.

Joseph slowly moved while the cold was making his body tremble still decided to not lose hope. He walked without looking back and finally came across a cave.

I can stay here till this wind stops.

He thought to himself and walked inside. The cave was long and got much further inside, but still not knowing what lies there, he decided to not venture much further into the cave and make his camp in the opening.

Joseph first found a place secluded from three sides as to protect the fire from air, in this case, the fallen rock of the cave was very helpful for him.

He placed the tree branches which he found on the ground after rubbing them clean from his coat as to not let any snow on them.

After rubbing them properly, Joseph took out his lamp and opened his glass case and let the fire close to the branch as to dry it off properly.

The fallen stone properly blocked three ways, so the air was very low here after the branches were dry enough to get burned, he stacked them together and lit them on fire.

That's so good, it's so warm now.

Joseph spoke slowly putting his hand above the flames, letting it get warm. He did the same to his legs, getting his whole body warm.

I have to find something to eat...

Joseph thought to himself and looked out seeing the weather was getting worse. He held his stomach, which was growling as if a monster lived inside it.

I can't go out!!!

Joseph turned around and looked towards the cave, which was dark and stretched for very long.

So should I go in? I don't know what I might find inside.

He held his stomach, which was aching very badly due to the hunger.

But if I didn't go then, I'll starve to death just like him.

He thought about the previous owner of this body, who decided to commit suicide by locking himself alone and that too without clothes and dying in starvation.

But what's the case with no clothes...

Joseph didn't understand why he decided to die naked, but knowing that thinking about this is just a waste of time. He got up and walked out to get some materials for his new journey.

I have to get a big wooden staff...

Joseph walked out in the cold chilling wind and somehow found the thing he was looking for.

That's it- Damnit it's so cold out here...

He thought to himself as he grabbed the staff in his hand and walked back quickly.

I just have to make it in proper design.

He grabbed the staff and tried to break it, but it was too thick. His body was very weak, but still knowing that it's his last chance to survive, he used as much energy as he can and somehow was able to break it.

If I didn't find anything inside, I'm doomed.

After breaking the stick, he stuffed the dry woods he saved from the fire and tied them up using his boot lashes.

It's good that these boots have lashes.

After tying them tightly, he had his own made burning torch and swung it in the air to see its toughness and then lit it on fire.

Now let's do this...

He spoke to him as he looked at the Cave which was Very Dark and Gloomy.

And Started to walk in with Small Steps not knowing what he might find inside this Cave.
