LOST

Author: Josiah

Chapter 1

It happened all too quickly…It happened with a snap of the finger. I was thrown off the road and into a river where I stayed there for I think 15-20 minutes until finally I found a log that I could climb on to get me out of the water. I walked through the dark forest with only the moon to keep me company. While I was walking I was stopped cold by the sound of rustling.I called out to see if anyone was there but to no reply , I called out again, but no reply. At this point I was getting worried and getting myself ready to run but that's when I heard the sound of growling and snarling coming from the darkness of the woods I turned around to see yellow eyes staring back at me and in that moment my flight or fight instincts kicked in and I the one thing that was reasonable to do. I chose to run and I didnt stop.

Chapter 2

I've been running my whole life basically, so this isn't new to me, but it was new because this time I was being chased by a pack of hungry wolves and I have been doing this for the last 5 minutes.

Eventually my stamina started to give up on me and that's when I knew I was in trouble, as i began to slow down I looked for somewhere for me to climb onto then I saw a tree branch that I could be able to reach and climb away for these rabid dogs, so with the remaining speed i had left in me i sped away from the crazy canines and leapt onto the tree trunk, but before you think i was able to get away from the wolves, there's a catch. There's always a catch in moments like this and my catch is that was for some reason my strength which i had all day long refused to help me out and i fell off the branch right in front of the wolves ( of course) and wolves left no hesitation and started nipping and biting me to try and get some meat off of me, and all i could do was squirm like a hopeless worm that has been harassed by some little boys. I refused to accept the fact that I was going to die, I didn't want to accept it, and so i didn't. It went all black and white after that all I could hear was some of my yelling and the whimpering and growling of the wolves … that's all I can remember of that moment. Before coming back into reality. There were 8 of them. I killed maybe 4 of them and the other 4 surrendered ( like they should after seeing the family members get beaten to death like that.) After that they followed me through the woods and made sure I had something to eat and that I had some drinkable water to drink. After walking for nearly 3 hours with barely any sleep I stopped in my tracks when i found a road it looked like a road that was super familiar to me, I couldn't put my finger on it until it hit me like a truck coming at 150mph with zero remorse that he’s going to hit a human being. I was on the old Georgetown road, some and the wolves ran to go find some help and once we got into town and saw some people in my eye view,I dropped down and stayed there. I woke up in a hospital by the feeling of my hand being touched and my eyes shot open to see my family and friends in shock and happy to see me in good spirits, I was glad that I was ok. The first question I asked was where the wolves were and I got a reply, a reply that let me breathe easy again “They're being cared for in the Georgetown veterinary hospital they were in bad shape, but they're ok now.”

“Were they yours?” I replied with a yes, but knowing darn well they're not mine and that I beat their friends to death, I continued with my choice of yes. I was let out of the hospital after a day, turn out I had a mild concussion and hypothermia but after resting for a day I was good to go and I didn't hesitate to head over to the vet to go see my wolves and how they're doing turns out my family was right they were in good spirits and were happy to see me. after officially singing out the adoption papers it was official I now own 4 wolves my girlfriend wasn't too psyched about me getting the dogs but it didn't take too long before she was cuddling with them fast asleep, i chuckled at the sight of this and joined them, as I closed my eyes I thought how amazed my future kids would be when I tell them the time they're dad survived the wilderness and took home 4 dogs.
