Dexter closed his eyes to ready for the worse, with his arms veins popping off he shoved his hands in the ground as deep as he can
"Raaaawwwwrrr!!"
Roared the bear in front of him making the hair in his skin stand in fear
"urrrrrkkk!"
Dexter bite his lower lip as he is ready for the attack he will receive
With his right leg being cleanly cut off and his frail body the chance of him outrunning the beast is impossible and will take a lifetime of luck to achieve
All dexter could do is bite his lips to levitate the pain of the beast's attack
Dexter is not giving up and want to live even with the exchange of his two eyes or arm but struggling would do him no good cause of the frail constitution of his body
'Why isn't the attack coming'
Dexter thought as a moment has already past but he isn't feeling the attack of the beast in his body
'Maybe when you get a blow to the point of dying, you won't even feel it?'
Dexter thought for a moment but the terrible pain in his leg and face is still scorching hot like the sun itself is touching his skin
Dexter slowly opened his eyes to confirm what's happening did he already die or the beast didn't continue the attack, but why would the big bear stop?
What he saw is like what happened to the snake that's behind him when he first entered the dark bush
The bear's huge body is trembling and its saliva with the mix of blood is flowing out of its mouth out of control
"Grrrrrr"
Growl the big bear like it just got rabies
"Whew"
Dexter release a relieving sigh as he felt that the luck of his lifestyle has been used in this situation
He released one of his hands off the soft ground and even with the mud in his palm he quickly put his arm in his face to feel the sensation of it
"I'm really live"
Doubtful of what has happened but when he felt the smooth skin in his cheek an unmovable smile appeared on his face
*thump*
The sound of the body of the bear which died for some unknown reason falls to the ground in the opposite way dexter is in
'There's a bear in here and if something killed it doesn't that mean it's stronger than the bear?'
Dexter thought as he crawl toward the open place where the sunlight can be seen and the place where he first woke up
But before he can emerge out of the bush what he saw waiting for him in the open area is a large snake similar but twice the size of the snake that the bear that hit him had killed
"uummf!"
Dexter covered his mouth as he almost let out a scream without his bodies proper control in the sight of a huge snake roaming in the place he was planning to go
'Well the bear has already died so it's safe in my previous place'
Dexter convinced himself with those words, as he carefully crawl and avoided the tiny branch that might fall if touch, and attract the snake in his location
*Screech*
*splach*
The sound of flesh being thorn has become louder the more he get near the corpse of the bear
Dexter quietly left the bush without alerting the snake on the other side which almost took his life
Dexter hug the bear's hairy paw to see its body when he saw a huge black egg creature on top of the bear's corpse
All creature in this place is twice the size of the animal his familiar with, the bear is the size of a full-grown tree and the snake is as long as two bed which isn't that big but for dexter who doesn't have anything like a weapon meeting eye in eye will be an instant death
Seeing two of this creatures which is dangerous and can easily kill him, dexter didn't even try to look in the face of the monster on the top of the corpse
He carefully let go of the bear's paw and slowly crawl to the opposite side of the corpse of the snake which the bear has thrown
Cause as he let go of the bear's paw he glance in the snake's corpse to find a similar egg-like creature dancing in the snake's dead body
As he crawl he didn't meet a living creature or dead one in his way but the sound of multiple roars in his surrounding is making dexter cover one of his ears in reflex
As he felt scared in the sound of those beast calls
"huff huff huff...how...long have I been crawling here?"
Dexter muttered as the pain in his leg become numb this pain is also the reason he's not talking to himself, not that talking to oneself is normal
Maybe because of the time dexter has to spend crawling he forget one thing about this place or maybe he didn't know about it in the first place
Sound can be located
the sound of his weak breath isn't enough to track him down but it's a different story if he felt too cocky and said something in this forest
The call and howl of the beast dexter has heard throughout his long crawling journey isn't even the call of the beast near him
The beast howl that he heard is located in the mountainside far away from him
Dexter whisper can't travel in the place where he heard the roar cause it's too far away but the place near him and the beast inside the mountain is a different story
*swooosh*
*swoosh*
*swoosh*
The bush around dexter begone to move and release the sound of multiple branches breaking like the one inside the bush is too large for the bush to fit inside
Just by hearing the sound of his surrounding Dexter's calm heart that has calmed down cause of his long journey begin to beat faster every second as he felt a sense of danger near him
