《Code Death[Dropped]》Chapter 4.5.1 - Running from wolves and Punishment
Advertisement
Hi guys, this is a mini story that’ll show you guys how Xzavon, Eric, Jack, and Shina all go their skills while training for the last week. It’ll be divided up in the story and won’t be done in one go as I hoped, why you ask because that wouldn’t be fun doing it all at once i want to write other parts of the story also. Story will change depending on the person who is completing the quest also let me know if you guys would like me to finish this mini story off first or add one of these chapters as the main story progresses. Never know might see something fun ;-P, but no promises.
~Xzavon
———————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————–
‘1 hour my ass, i’ll never believe in you again’ was running through the minds of Eric, Jack, Shina and Xzavon. Barely 15 minutes have passed before he let those damn wolves chase after them, not to mention they were being slowed down by the weights on around their legs. Although they have increased their strength thanks to training their skills, it still wasn’t enough, at most they could last another 30 minutes before the weights would seriously hinder them. At that time the wolves would catch up, a starving wolf may not have a lot of strength, but a starving wolf wouldn’t let its prey go either.
“I have an idea, why don’t we just climb into a tree and hide there until time is up?” Jack suggested, this was a good idea but it had one flaw. That flaw was how would they climb the tree whose branches are taller than them, even if they got on each other shoulders to reach the branch at least 2 of them would be left on the ground with the wolves.
“You going to sacrifice yourself bimbo?” Shina refuted, she would do anything to get away from the wolves but she wasn’t going to become a sacrifice herself. She wasn’t the only one with this idea, the other 3 also had this same idea, thus this dismissed Jacks idea of climbing a tree.
After running for another 10 minutes they started to feel the weights taking effect, and were panting nonstop. “Fuck, if I live through today Jim is going to get a lot of complaining.” Shina said, but no one said anything because they were all in agreement, although it occurred to them that they might not be able to beat him even if they ganged up on him, they would at least be able to complain in unison to him.
Pointing towards a small dark entrance Eric’s eyes brightened up with hope, “Guys look that entrance over there, might be our only hope.” Looking towards the entrance they eyes were glittering with hope, a look of admiration also flashed in their eyes towards Eric for pointing this out.

Stepping foot into the entrance, it was dark and quiet, way too quiet if someone were to drop a pebble it would echo throughout the cave. “Yup Eric, you picked the best place to hide. We can’t see anything…what would we do if we step forward and fall into a pit with no way out.” Xzavon said, but he was still grateful to get away from the wolves. “This is how you take his kindness Xzavon, shame on you. We should just throw you outside with the wolves at least they wont go after us while we escape because they’ll be too busy chewing on you.”
Anger flared up in Xzavons eyes, “Shina don’t think i forgot what you did, I’ll get my revenge. Just you wait, the moment you let up is the moment you will fall.” Knowing what he meant by getting revenge for what she did, Shina just didn’t care, as far as she was concerned Xzavon was younger and weaker than her. She could take care of him anytime, so she simply smiled, but that wasn’t a happy smile it was more of a i don’t care what you try to do, come at me anything type of smile.
*Growl* *Growl*
Hearing that the wolves were close by, everyone shut up trying their hardest not to be heard, everyone had their hands on another persons mouth. 5 minutes passed by, and the youths came out of the cave with sweat covering them and their clothes were sticking to them also. Taking off his worn out shirt, “Phew, would have been dog chow if we hadn’t hidden. Thanks for the quick thinking Eric, we can just keep coming here over the next couple of days.” Eric feeling proud puffed out his chest, it felt good being told that he did something worthy.
In a tree not to far from where Xzavon and co. were, a dark figure appearing grinning at them. ‘Damn brats think they don’t have to run, think again you only got away for now wait until you go back we’ll see what happens then.’ The figure flashed, a leaf floated down from the tree and before it even hit the ground the figure was gone.
Sitting around the entrance to the cave, the youths were wondering what to do to pass the time. They still had roughly 4 hours left until they needed to go back, but suddenly Xzavon had an idea, “Why don’t we head back to camp, remember dad said 1 hour in his time isn’t the same as ours. So think about it, the time in his world moves way faster than ours, that means 5 hours must have passed for him and he’s waiting for us to go back.” The other 3 looked doubtful at Xzavon, although Jim did say that how would they look going back to camp before the 5 hours were up. They were already slacking off on their training and if they were to go back to soon, who knows what Jim would have them do. Thinking about it after a few minutes they still nodded their head, thus they went back to camp and didn’t encounter any trouble.

Making it back to camp by the same path they came, they encountered a problem. It wasn’t a simple problem, more like a big one because were the camp was supposed to be it wasn’t there at all. They were lost, and the ones who led them was none other than Jack, feeling arrows piercing his back he really didn’t want to turn around and see what kind of faces they were making at him. All he knew was that he went the right way, but evidence shows that he didn’t go the right way otherwise they would be back with Jim by now. Little did they know that Jim caught them slacking off and packed up everything and left, hiding while they were looking for camp.
But why would Jim care, they are slacking on their training so he’s going to make them train even if they don’t want to. He already thought of his master plan, while they are searching for him and the camp he will wait until nightfall. Once at night he will abduct them one by one and separate them making it so they can’t work together. He’ll also add weights to them that way even if they don’t run, it’ll still feel as if a mountain is crushing down on them. Yup, his master plan that he thought of, but he didn’t put much thought into it. Simply thought, ‘Separate them and make them find their way back, add weight and they’ll have to work twice as hard to get back, add dangers and it’ll show them not to slack off’.
When nightfall hit, Xzavon and co. were feeling tired after searching all over for Jim. At one point they thought he might have went home, but knowing him they easily dismissed that thought. Yawning Shina looked at the group, “Lets go to sleep here for tonight, tomorrow we can search again.” They nodded their heads and each picked a spot to lay down for the night, little did they know that a figure was watching them from not to far away happily grinning away. “AH!”, Someone screamed, waking up Xzavon who looked around and saw everyone was still asleep. When his eyes fell on the spot where Shina was he didn’t see her, one thought went through his mind and that was Revenge. Getting up he stealthily passed by Jack and Eric, looking behind the trees hoping to find Shina, but he was disappointed because she was nowhere to be found. Suddenly something grabbed him, he tried to fight it but the force was too strong and he fell unconscious. When he woke up the next morning he was laying on the floor in a suit full of weight, it wasn’t even flexible at all. His eyes stopped and spotted a note that was left on the ground, he grabbed it and read it carefully, ‘Boy you should know who this is, if you don’t then I feel sorry for you. You little brats thought I wouldn’t know you hid in a cave to get away from the wolves when i told you to run huh, well think of this as a reward for your laziness. You are someone in the forest, heck if I know where you are exactly but I surely don’t care. You have a week to make it back to camp, if you don’t then you have failed and won’t be able to go to a new world and will live the rest of your life here. Don’t worry about the weighted suit, it wont come off at all, just think of it as another gift, also don’t mind the other brats they are receiving the same treatment as you. Have fun, and don’t let the wild animals catch you.
~Best Damn Teacher/Father’
