2 chapter 2 Colorful Forest

I woke up to an insect that bite me on the back, and I quickly got up after this horrific dream.

I touched the place of the bite, and caught the insect, but... it was not an insect, but rather... a bird?, I threw it out of my hand because of its disgusting appearance.

It had the mouth and feet of a mosquito, and it had wings and the body of a bird. This strange thing flew with a strange sound, that was neither the sound of a bird chirping nor the sound of a mosquito buzzing. I don't know, perhaps a combination of the two?, I'll leave it to your imagination.

I looked around, and saw myself in a forest with many colors. even the grass is blue, purple and pink. I don't know. There are colors whose names I don't know either.

I rose from my place, and I'm completely afraid of this horrific place.

I looked in front of me, and it seems to me that I'm on a small hill, and in front of me is a village.

So I started walking towards it, even though I wanted to run, but I was not reassured about anything here, so I chose caution and walked slowly.

After arriving at the village safely, and truly... safely?. I don't know how there is nothing harmful in the forest, anyway.

I looked around, and saw ordinary people in village clothes.

I noticed that my white shirt and these black pants were completely different from their village clothes.

I was a little afraid because of that, I was afraid that they would despise me.

I started walking in the village, and I felt their gazes on me, and turned to see them talking to each other.

While turning my head slowly from them, I did let out a sigh.

So... There was a shop selling wooden boxes, Some of them were not boxes, but they contained beautiful engravings.

While I was looking at the engravings, I noticed a person talking to me and saying,

"You, What do you want, ha?"

Maybe because I'm not known, he talks like this?. I didn't pay attention to the way he spoke, and looked at him, and smiled while saying.

"Sorry, ah... I came here to ask, What is this place?"

"Hmm, you don't look like one of the people of this village. where did you come from?"

"To be honest with you... (He won't believe that, the old mirror of my house, swallowed me, and put me here. Let's lie, nothing will happen.) I don't remember anything before waking up here."

The man spoke as if he was accustomed to the coming of lost people.

"This village is Gabriel, away from the kingdom for three days by wagon and six days on foot. How long have you been here?"

"I only came here an hour ago."

"I mean, how many days have you been lost from home?"

"Just one hour...I haven't woken up for a long time. I woke up near the village on that small hill over there."

The man looked at the hill where I was pointing, and said,

"It's the road towards the kingdom. I think you fell off the back of a carriage, because there are a few carriages passing through the village This days."

"Thank you for telling me, sir. I will go this way then."

"Yes, yes."

"Oh, the inscriptions are beautiful. Please keep up the wonderful work."

"I don't need someone like you to say my work is wonderful."

"Oh... okay. bye Sir" *walks away*

"What a keen eye, ha ha"

*turns back inside with a smile*

I went on my way. and heard the man giggling, is he laughing at me?, It doesn't matter.

I went from where I came, but after I crossed the village's gate, I remembered something important.. . I do not have money or food!!!. after being worried for an hour I didnt have a solution.

The only thing I could think of was to continue my way.

I went to that hill and felt something following me, so I did look behind me, and saw a donkey had walked up the hill and sat in front of me...???? What?, What is this donkey doing here?.

I did not pay attention to the donkey, and continued my path, and he stood on his four legs and walked behind me again, when I stopped and looked at him. He stopped and sat in front of me... again
