Chapter 3: Who is Prorid

Serpentorn, the home of the Serpents. We follow a young orphan by the name of Prorid. A sneaky jester who loves to steal, lie and cheat to survive. Whatever is needed, he'll get it. No matter what it takes.

"Get back here Sssscum"! As a burly man chases our hero through the town. "I ssaid get back here"!

"No way man. You'll kill me if you catch me! Sso you gotta catch me if you can Grizzly"! Prorid said.

As he runs and is getting away he sees a crack just big enough to slip through. He makes a mad dash for it but instead of hitting the crack, he ducks in the shadows perceiving that he went through. The big man reaches the whole and looks through it as best as he could but because of his size it was almost impossible.

"You better run you thieving little moussse. If i ssee you again, it'l be your lassst"!

He turns to walk away and as he does, Prorid comes out from the shadow.

"Hehehehe, too easssy"! He said to himself.

Just then, an arm grabs him and pins him to the wall

"Ha! you thought you got away, but I knew you didn't". A voice said.

As he turned around he saw a familiar nose. It was his teacher Ramonns. The guy who taught him everything he knows.

"Let me go". He screamed.

"Alright, alright, keep it down now. What'd you get thisss time"? Ramonns asked.

"Well you know how I do it. Only the bessst for the bessst"! as he handed over his score.

As Ramonns reached for it, Prorid pulled back.

"na, ah, ah! nothing in thiss world iss free, esspecially not thesse thingss you ssee". Prorid said.

"Haha, ok, ok. You're right". Ramonns said.

He put his hand in his pocket to pull something out. Prorid looked and waited in amazement but instead another hand grabbed him by the throat pinning him against the wall.

"Look here you little ssshit. I'm the one who got you to where you are. ME!! Don't ever forget"!

He started to pull out a knife in a threatening way.

"I outta take you out right now"!

Prorid, not blinking. Staring in Ramonns eyes and chuckles.

"I'm jusst playing. Why sso sseriouss"? he laughed.

Ramonns shocked, started to smile as he released Prorid.

"Tch, the orphan with no fear". He says. " Alright, give it here"

Prorid begins to hand it over but instead hands him a broken piece of glass which cut the palm of Ramonns.

"Ow! YOU LITTLE SSHIT"! Ramonns screamed. "You think that owner wass bad, wait until I get my handss on you"!

Prorid eludes Ramonns and dashes towards the crack and slithers away.

"PRORID!! You can't esscape! I will find you"! as he sings while giving up.

As he loses Ramonns nightfall sets in and he comes across a huge boulder with what looks to be a place someone's been sleeping at.

"WELCOME HOME PRORID"! He screamed as if he was being welcomed. He enters his secret spot and begins to lay down. On top of the boulder is a hole big enough to let moonlight in.

"Today wass a great day! Got food and even got ssome arwe"! (arwe is a type of drink that only people with enough money could afford)

Time goes by with nothing but silence and Prorid eyes begin to slowly shut. Just then, there's a rumble and Prorid jolts up.

"How did they find me"? be pondered. "I made ssure to not be followed"!

After a while, the shaking stopped and Prorid, confused began to lay back down.

"I guesss it wass nothing".

Just then, the statue, began to crumble apart and exposes...an eye.
