Untamed Wildlands
Chapter 1
She struggled to cross the ruthless desert trying to arrive at the entrance of the soul's land. She is a bounty hunter, sent by a baron to kill a golden Cerberus. She was wearing a hat and a vest made from natural leather, she had a companion with her, a creature with the body of a horse, the head of a canine, and the strength of a lion, she kept him in a leash so he won't run away if they were to encounter any enemies. As they walked across the desert the ground started to shake under their feet, she then looked at her mount creature and smirked.
-They're here Ain, let's show them what we can do.
She mounted the creature and started to gallop further, the earth breaking and shaking behind them like they were being followed. She pulled the reins and the creature stopped immediately and then jumped on a high rock, and then another rock, and another until they climbed up a rocky hill. Once they made it to the top the earth stopped shaking. She got off Ain and took the lead, walking further continuing their way on the hill.
Chapter 2
After a while walking through the desert they heard a loud sound, like a motor. She looked around and saw a white silhouette on a motorcycle approaching them. The stranger braked in front of them and the dust under his wheel raised in the air. He seemed to be a Bengal tiger, he was white with golden stripes, he was so massive and it looked like he had a six-pack on his abdomen, he had medium-long hair. She looked at the massive tiger for a long time until he started speaking with his deep voice.
-Ya lost gurl? He said while he shook his hair out of his face.
-No, I am not lost, indeed I almost arrived at my destination. She said trying to avoid talking too much with the tiger.
-ye mind telling me yer name? He said before he started the engine of the motorcycle again.
-I'm Nyx, now stranger, don't mind me I'll just continue walking my way.
-Hey, hey, where ye think yer going. He immediately stops the motorcycle in front of Nyx so she couldn't walk further.
-Move out of my way you brute. She growled at him.
-Who ye calling a brute, yo small dog, I have a name, which is Revon. He said leaning forward into her face.
-Whatever you say, now let me pass, I don't have much time. She said trying to walk past him again, however, he sat in front of her again.
-yer not going anywhere without me Nyx, I've been sent by your father to make sure you're not hurting yourself.
-Pfft, my dad? That old bastard should know that I left the home for a reason. If he thinks I need a bodyguard to take care of me, he's wrong. You can go back to him and tell him I got eaten by a hydra, at least he'll leave me alone like this.
-You don't understand, Nyx, he died.
Chapter 3
Nyx was neutral about her father's death, but one thing was for sure, they had to find shelter because the night was getting closer and closer and they didn't want to be eaten by any creature in the desert...
She mounts Ain and Revon on the motorcycle, they start moving, everything was going pretty well until ...
I ran out of gas!
Incredible! Aren't you a stupid idiot good for nothing, did you fill it?
I was too preoccupied with yer father's death, do you think it's a good time to curse me?
-It's always a good time to curse you, well, my mount can't hold you too, since you might weigh 90 kilograms, you'll be a delicious meal for hydra coming towards us.
-Ye can't do that! Ya don't have the right to do that!
-Oh, don't have the right?.... Watch me! Enjoy being eaten. She started trotting away.
~after a while~
-AAAA!
-So he's still alive ... I can't have an idiot like him in my conscience. She pulled the reins and Ain stirred back, galloping
While Ain galloped, Nyx saw a pile of bones...
-Oh no Ain, we arrived too late...
-Ye stupid, that's a bull skeleton I'm still alive !! Save me!
-Poor guy. She says, pretending not to see Ravon
-I'll be like that if ye don't hurry !!
-get on
-I would say thank you but if ye WOULDN'T LEFT ME IT WOULDN'T HAPPEN, ye idiot!
-But did I save you? I did it...
-I could die!
-But you're still alive ..unfortunately...
-And I'm glad that we're not dead yet
-So funny....RUN AIN!!
Chapter 4
After a while, they finally arrived at an abandoned small wooden building.
-Why is so cold here?
-Maybe because there are 0 degrees, I think...
-Don't ya have a pillow?
-I don't, even if I would have a pillow I wouldn't share it with you anyway. She said concrete.
-No problem, I have Vodka
-How didn't you lose it?
-Vodka it's my baby, and I'm a good father.
-You are already delusional, you don't have to drink anymore. Just go to sleep. Nyx said turning to the other side.
-What a crazy day ...
-JUST SLEEP MOTHERFUCKER!!
-Someone is angry ....
-I swear, in one day I'll fucking kill you, Ravon.
-Shhh, just sleep
-This -
-SHHHHH just sleep.
~In the morning~
-Good morning Ny-....A...Nyx?....Nyx is not funny ...Nyx? Ain? Nyx?! And now I miss my motorcycle.
-If you miss your motorcycle then just go after it! Nyx said while she entered the door.
-Nyx! Yer not dead! Where have ya been?
-To find some food...I really wanna taste some tiger meat, but I bet you taste like rubber.
-And where is dem food?
-IS A FUCKING DESERT I CAN'T FIND FOOD!
-YOU DON'T HAVE TO SCREAM LIKE THAT!
-Ok ok ...
-Your luck I Have vodka.
-ah... about your vodka.... I drank it when I went for food, I had to stay hydrated.
-I guess I'm a cannibal then, don't worry I'll buy you another bottle once we arrive at a town.
-WE ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF AN DESERT WHEN WE WILL ARRIVE AT A TOWN ?!
She opened the door and looked outside.
-Hmm... 3. She said
-3 what? He asked, looking confused at her.
-Weeks, 3 weeks, but we have to find a way to move faster, Ain will get tired after a mile of walking across the desert.
Chapter 5
-So...after a mile how are we supposed to continue walking after Ain gets tired?...he asked curiously
-Do I have to think about everything? You can't even find a way to walk further? Please, tell me one more time, why do I have to take you with me? Why can't I throw you in the middle of the desert at night hoping that a hydra will serve you?
-I can't lose my life now !!
-Not now, tonight. She said very amusedly.
He looked at her very scared because he knew she would do that if she truly wanted.
-I'll protect you, take care of you, and also I'll save you, you can't let me die.
-You'll save me? If I remember well, I saved you. She said with a smile on her face.
-Yes but....but....but you can't let me die you can't kill me.
-Let me guess, I don't have the right?
-Look, before I came here I had a reputation. He said looking into her eyes.
-Oh yea? The stupid?The idiot?
-Would an idiot have those tattoos? Would an idiot have that body? He said smiling.
-Yes, I think so.
-Oh this girl.
- Do you wanna stay here or get up on Ain?
-Why are u asking me? He said while he climbed up on Ain.
-I really wanna throw you to hydras but you smell like a piece of shit and they won't even eat you.
-It's not my fault
-Change your clothes you stupid.
- But I don't have another t-shirt.
-WHAT THE HELL DO YOU CARRY IN THAT BAG IF YOU DON'T HAVE CLOTHES, SOAP OR FOOD?!
-I HAD VODKA BUT YOU DRANK IT !!
-Don't tell me that you came in the middle of the dessert just with vodka.
-And a pair of pants and a jacket. He said proudly of himself
-AISHAH
-Good for you, ya can see my 6 pack. He said looking at her with a big smile on his face.
-You're what? You are fat as a cow and why are you looking at me like that?
-I'm using my charm
-You better start to use your brain. She said annoyed. In my bag, I have another t-shirt. Take it
-Ok...Wait, I won't wear a girl's shirt
-No one will see that you are a boy, take it
-No, I don't want to.
-Take it
-No.
-Why do I have to always repeat myself?
Chapter 6
-See? You look good with it. Anyway, the night is coming, we should find shelter.
-Nyx...
-Yea?
-Something is making me believe that there are not just hydras...
-Of course, it's a big dessert I know everything about every creature from here.
- Perfect, now look behind us and tell me about the creature running in our direction.
-What?
-Turn around.
She turns around and sees a big 2 headed wolf. It seems to be very hungry..., hungry indeed they were on its next menu.
-Revon ...
-Yes?
-It's such a good time to show me that you are a good bodyguard.
-Aww Are you scared?
-RAVON THIS IS NOT A GOOD TIME FOR JOKES!
-SHIT
The wolf jumps on Ain's back and scratches Revon, he pulls back from the wolf and Ain starts galloping as fast as he can. Revon takes out the empty bottle of Vodka and hits the wolf's head with it. The wolf slowed down, shaking its head after the impact with the empty bottle, so now they have the chance to escape, and this is what they did
-Ravon, good job!
-Good job? This is all that ya can say? ''Good job"...I expect one more bottles of vodka
-Ain, stop here. She pulled the reins and pat Ain on his neck. Good boy.
-I am a good boy too, Revon said proudly of himself
-Whatever. Wait a second...turn around.
He turns around.
-Why didn't you tell me? You are hurt, and it's blood on my t-shirt!
-Is this ya only problem?
-Yes, I liked this t-shirt, take it off!
-I guess ya enjoy seeing me without clothing. He smirked.
-To treat your wound, idiot
-It's not a big deal
-Turn yourself around before I'll turn you around myself.
She takes a ripped cloth from one of her pockets and wipes the blood from his wound.
-It's better now, take another shirt from my bag
-I'll wear the old one
-It's full of blood, now don't make me repeat myself again
After 30 minutes they found an abandoned cottage next to the cliff, Nyx feed Ain some dried grass and gave him some water.
-we should get some rest for now. He said turning his back towards her and lay on the ground putting his head on a pile of leaves.
-Revon
-Yes?
-From where did you get that scar?
He pretends to be asleep and ignore her
-I know you aren't asleep. Ok fine, don't answer.
Chapter 7
The next morning Revon was the first one who woke up but he had a surprise when he looked at the window. The wolf was looking at them, and now it didn't seem just hungry it was also angry. Revon thought if he should wake up Nyx or not. He decided not to, he took a metal bar from a pile of scraps, he was indeed ready for a fight.
Nyx grabs his leg and whispers to him.
-Don't tell me that you plan on fighting with a 2 headed wolf just with a metal bar, you'll be eaten in less than 20 seconds.
-When did ya wake up?
-I'm half canine, I can smell other wolves from 3 miles away.
Nyx took the blood-stained shirt and told Ain to be ready for a run. She threw the shirt behind the cottage and the wolf immediately run there.
-Get up! She said to Revon
Revon mounts up on Ain and they run as fast as they could.
-Apparently, he followed your blood smell.
-well this means my blood smells delicious. He grinned.
-I'm really not in the mood for jokes, I almost got eaten as a morning greeting by a half-Cerberus because you had to get a small wound, what type of bodyguard are you.
-It wasn't my fault! Ain didn't run fast enough!
-you dare say anything about my loyal friend again and I swear on your vodkas, I'll leave you here alone to become worm food! Am I clear enough? She yells at him raising her tone after every word.
-Y-yes sir!
-good! She shook the reins and Ain started running faster to the entrance of a canyon.
