Trembling, I hid inside the closest bush and crouched down quietly. Goosebumps ran through my body as I flinched inside the tall grass that pierced my skin. How is this possible? Shit, It’s only one... I shivered as a headless comrade flew past me, which blew the icy cold wind against my body and sprayed the warm blood against the surroundings.

Glaring helplessly at the man who stood there coldly with his bloodied full plated armor as he slayed each and everyone of my friends. It wasn’t just his cold and icy eyes but the demonic aura, the stench of blood, the fear that kept creeping closer to me as I desperately picked up my pace and ran.

The guilt of abandoning my comrades struck my struggling heart deeply as each step I took got me further and further away from the hideout.

As I darted through the green lushly woods for what seemed like hours, the sudden bright light from the gap of the breezing trees struck my eyes and I stumbled head first into the soft mossy ground. “Fuck!” echoed throughout the forest and made the shadows of the birds scatter to the air.

“Clank… Clank… Clank…”

It wasn’t just the sound of the armor that crept towards my trembling back, but the stench of blood that made me plead to god to forgive my dishonest behavior.

“Any last words?” The man said and gently placed his bloody two handed sword on my shoulder.

With a malicious laugh that raised the heavy blade, I turned around with a grin as I pierced the man with my poisoned dagger.

But the grin turned sour as the world turned pitch black, wind blew through my neck and the sound of the blood squirting out of the body below me.

"Thud"...

It took me a moment to realise… I had died.
