4 Feast

When walking in the open territory,

bother no one.

If someone bothers you, ask him to stop.

If he does not stop, destroy him.....

.....

Its shining red eyes were staring at him from a far away distance in much indignation, while its colossus body was no less than a lion. It had dark fawn fur, while its sharp teeth were clearly visible from in between its open mouth, ready to rip Marc apart. It was slowly walking towards the Marc, as if side by side meticulously studying his every action.

"ROARRRRRR!!!"

"No! No!" Marc muttered in much despair as his heart raced rapidly and his lips trembked. "Wh... why are you after a weak person like me? Wh.. what h... have I done to you?" His face had gone pale white like a ghost's and his body was getting cold out of trepidation.

Marc was now pleading and begging to the beast as if talking to a personage. As if able to understand his words, the giant beast growled again in extreme anger approaching him slowly and cautiously. "ROARRRRRRRR!!!"

Marc tried to get up on his feet but his leg was now totally non- functional. He swiftly started to drag his body further ahead towards the jungle. The boy was just giving himself some time to live as he already knew he would never be able to escape the beast.

He could hear the crunch sound of the dry leaves as the beast stepped on them, while slowly approaching him. The boy wondered why was such a brawny beast not pouncing on him instantly and was approaching a frail man like him with much caution. "Maybe it wants to enjoy hunting and then feast on me. Why cannot this end rapidly? Does it have to be so torturous? Haha! What fate!"

The boy let out an extremely sad laughter as he kept dragging his body further ahead. He did not realize that he was instead dragging himself towards the edge of the surface, which ended in a perpendicular valley. He further dragged himself, when half of his body was now in the air at the edge of the steep valley. Before he could even understand anything, he lost the balance of his lower body and tripped downwards.

"Arghhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!" The boy's loud screams echoed in the entire jungle as he fell down the precipitous valley. His body was rapidly getting rolled, slipping downwards, when he landed on another rough surface with a loud thump.

"BAMMMMMM!" The imapct of the fall was huge but he landed on a collected pile of rough grass, as if placed aside to be burnt at the time of need.

His eyes were closed as every inch of his body was now hurting badly. "Even after such a big fall, I am still alive?" He mumbled in much disgust.

He was now waiting for the death to arrive anytime now, when he slowly opened his eyes, blinking several times in much disbelief. "Where have I landed? What place is this? " He did not have the strength to stand up, so he kept staring in front of him, trying to figure out the location. "Maybe I am dead and this is heaven!"

Just then he saw her....
