《Gallinus》3- Trying to wake up
Advertisement
So, these are my memories before I ended up in this ridiculous dream?!
I wonder as soon as I come back from my memories.
Just what did that old man do to me!?
I really can’t understand how I ended up in this situation.
Besides, everything seems so real, I’m starting to wonder if it’s not reality.
Nah, there’s no way this could be real…
With this in my mind, I turn my attention to the girl.
By the way, this girl got into an argument with those people because of me, right?
At least, I think that was it.
After watching she a little more, I look at my neck and see the necklace.
It’s the same necklace that old man gave me…
The crystal Rooster necklace.
Does this girl know anything about him?
Even though I am in a dream, I would like to know what she would say about him.
After some time walking, we arrived at a village.
It doesn’t seem to have electronics or power cables, so I think it’s a middle-age village.
While we walk along the central road, I can see a several young people with strange looks.
They carry a variety of weapons which I believe is for hunting…
There are also street vendors, selling objects that seem useless to me.
In fact, what most catches my attention are the colors.
Those colors that are in everything I see.
I want to wake up soon! I am no longer able to process all of this!
Another thing I noticed are your pendants. All of them have a light blue pendant written SC.
Is this village some kind of faction?
The girl who carries me also has one around her neck, despite being hidden by her clothes.
After walking for a while, we finally arrived at a simple house in the corner of the village.

The sky is getting dark, so it must be about 18 hours?
As soon as we arrive, the girl opens the door and enters, making me believe this house is hers.
We barely entered and a woman came to us. She is very similar to the girl who carries me, only older.
Maybe they are sisters? Or maybe mother and daughter?
The two start talking in their native language and I still don’t understand.
I’m a little tired… I think it must be time to wake up…
My eyes gradually close as I curl up in my feathers.
[…]
… How strange, am I still dreaming?
As soon as I wake up, I realize that I still remain like a baby chicken.
Observing the crack of window, I conclude that is dawn.
Since I can barely see anything beyond the crack, I just try to feel things around me.
… Does it look like I’m on a table? Should I try to get out of here?
I really want to go out and explore, but it’s too dark for me to see anything.
So, I decide to think again about why I didn’t wake up from that dream.
Maybe… Am I in a coma?
Well, that is the only plausible explanation I can think of at the moment.
Whatever it is, it seems that I will experience another day in this strange world.
Without much to do, I decided to cringe and wait for someone to wake up…
[…]
After a while, I hear someone yawning, the person probably waking up.
So someone has been sleeping next to me all this time and I didn’t realize…
From the tone of voice and believing that only 2 people live in this house, I can be sure this is the girl who brought me here.

Even though I can’t see anything, it seems the girl got up from the bed without any problems and came towards me.
- Good morning, how are you feeling? – She asks me, looking sleepy.
In addition to not seeing a paw in front of me, I’m fine.
- You are strange, standing still most of the time and just falling asleep right after… - She murmurs, as she seems to watch me.
How rude you are! Know that I just don’t make useless moves!
There was no response from the girl and I just hear her footsteps going to the side.
Moments later, the window opens, and I can finally see again.
What I see is a simple room, with a bed, a small table that I am on , a chair, a small wardrobe and the girl who lives in it.
She’s wearing short shorts and a tank top, it’s probably her sleeping pajamas.
Although, as she just woke up, her clothes are all crumpled, and I can see a lot more skin than I should have.
- Well, after what happened yesterday, I think I will have to change my goal. – She comments.
I have no idea what you’re talking about… By the way, since when can I understand you, in the first place?!
As the girl was talking to me naturally, it took me a while to notice this really important detail.
- For now, let’s see what you’re capable of! – She speaks, looking in my direction.
…What?
