7 Short Grass

I walked with confidence and a vigor that I never felt before, my whole body felt good.

It was already dawn and many people were pacing back and forth, many strong men carrying fruit in buckets to the nearby square and creating tents.

I walked to the square and realized that this was supposed to be the fair because it had everything and was well divided, and the place where i'm in the moment, was selling food, such as fruits, breads and more.

The opposite side sold usual items like medieval weapons, miscellaneous items ranging from arrows to traps, I paid no attention to anything other than metal swords, knives and daggers placed in an open tent.

I thought of approaching, but I had no money and if the owner understood badly and thought that I would do something bad it could be that today is my last dayn, then I turned around the square and followed my way to the gates where everyone was together.

I kept walking and saw stores being opened in the streets with beautiful cloths the sample, vibrant colors dazzled my eyes.

I could see some things that priced, it looked like paper, but it was very thick and rough in appearance.

I could see some things which appeared to be where prices were, it looked like paper, but it was very thick and rough in appearance.

The purpose of this article was: O.1000, had an O in front of the numbers, smaller pieces had an X in front of the numbers.

Many places were simply normal homes, but few had shops, most had booths with handcrafted items that were undoubtedly made by the owners to raise extra money.

I got to the point and saw that they had some here yes, I tried to listen to what they were talking about and unfortunately I failed, my vision was not as beautiful as before.

I do not understand this situation, within minutes I had monstrous vision and hearing and now I look just above the average.

I thought for a while and a solution shone in my eyes literally, it was because of the sun, the more sunlight I received the more normal my senses were.

Well, such a guess will only be confirmed at night.

I stood around the corner looking at everyone who was present as the American Dylan all had a frightened face beyond belief.

They stared at the gates ahead and trembled visibly.

I approached and they also they noticed me, i waved my hand "hi?" They all looked at me with doubtful eyes.

"Where were you? Why do you look so good?" they no doubt saw inexplicable things and were in shock no doubt.

"Well ... I was ... "how to say I stayed in a hot fireplace the night and had a good meal and an unknown being turned my body into an evolved being?

And that's where my cavalry came "he was at a woman's house, I saw him come in".

It was exactly the voice I did not want to hear, Amelia, I do not think she went where I thought I would go.

What I forgot was that although my hearing had improved, only i knew that and in Amelia's mind i was just following the plan to which i spoke last night.

I turned and she was there, alone, a face flushed and her abdomen moving in and out, no doubt ran restlessly to get right behind me.

And the other side did not stay quiet no doubt " did you stay in a house? Why did not you help us? We all stand here in the cold, seeing those abominations bumping against the wall and against the gates, drooling and devouring us with the eyes".

I did not know how to defend myself and did not want to do any unnecessary fighting either, "I'm sorry, i had no way to help, when arrives night the locals do not leave the house", i told the truth, but it was not well accepted.

"You will not leave, and you can not come and tell us that someone was willing to give us a shelter?"

No doubt her discontent was growing and I certainly did not know how to escape, I looked at Amelia and she was next to Dylan saying something to him.

I listened a few steps and came almost immediately and it was the soldiers, their leader came in front followed by five more and the black guy from before was also among them now in normal clothes.

He stood in front of us and made a sound with his throat to catch our attention "Hunhun" everyone including Amelia in the distance, stopped and paid attention.

"Congratulations to you who spent the night well, some of you i have to say that surprised me with the methods used and others i must say i expected more."

That's when I, like everyone else, seemed to notice something.

"Yes last night was a test, all beginners pass for this adaptability test, if it were to sort or disqualify, so by taking Jakerson, Noanbaka and a few others who are already in our field, all the others would undoubtedly were disqualified".

Me, the black guy and other teams right ?, but why not Amelia?, truth be told, she only used my method and nothing else.

She also noticed that she was not chosen and of course she stood out shortly thereafter "And I?, I also did not spend the night in a safe place".

"Tell me, young lady, was it by your own method that you got the safe place?"

"Na ..." he interrupted her before his justification. "And what did you do as soon as it was morning?, are you grateful to your partner or at least thanked the mistress of the house?".

She was silent as she realized that everything she had done had already been checked and was certainly not approved by the captain.

"Okay now that you do not have what say please follow me, you can ask me questions during the walk".

Everyone was silent and the captain did not seem to take the initiative to speak alone.

"How do you know my name ?" may not be the most urgent doubt, but I never said my name to anyone.

He turned his face and looked at me over his shoulders. "Well, Mr. Jakerson, I believe this question can not be answered now, you must ask this in three days, you maybe not even have to ask.

I quieted after that, I already knew where we were going and it was for the headquarters of the guards of that village to regroup and see how many of us are still alive.

We walked for a few minutes and some people asked questions like "Where are we, can we go back home?"

The answer was " well these questions are very important so I will give the answer when all of you are together".

Other minor questions were answered such as the name of this village was Short Grass, of course the sound coming out of the man's mouth was much more interesting and looked like Shortu Grassin.

Because in English I asked and he told me that he was named by someone in our world and they did not know what that meant.

And when we finally got to the headquarters door that woman who gave me shelter was there dressed in tight pants and a green jacket with a symbol on her left breast.

She looked in my direction and formed a very satisfied smile on her face.
