Once Anastasia had gotten everything she’d been looking for, you got back on the trail and continued further along the coast. More toppled trees and deep indentations in the dirt popped up with increasing frequency, until you came across a field that seemed to be free of trees, foliage, or fauna of any sort.
Standing in the middle of the field, panting heavily was a chubby boy, covered in cuts and bruises. He had reddish hair and freckles that dotted his cheeks and the bridge of his nose. His clothing was caked with dirt and torn in several places, but you were sure that it had once been made to resemble a piglet.
You knew his eyes were on you, but you just couldn’t force yourself to look away from the ravaged bodies at his feet. They were of varying degrees of distance relative to his position, but the symptoms were all the same. None of them had any skin left on their bodies.
The corpses were all tender, corded muscle and exposed bone. But what bothered you about the whole thing was how clean the injuries had been. It was as if someone had just peeled them like a grape.
You cautioned a step forward, and Gordy raised his hands defensively. He had a wild look in his eye. The boy was like a feral cat, poised to strike and run at the slightest provocation.
What will you do?
>”You’re Gordy, right? Is that your real name, or your new name?”>”It’s okay. We’re here to help you, not hurt you.”>”Do you wanna go home with me and my team?”>”I don’t know you, and you don’t know me. And I know things might seem scary right now, but I’m gonna need you to trust me so I can get you somewhere safe.”>”You’ve gotta stop running around like this! You’re going to hurt yourself if you're not careful.”>Remove your cloak, remove your weapons and approach him with open arms.>Remove your mask and approach him slowly.>Let Peter Pan deal with this. He knows this kid better than you do.>Write-in.Pastebins:
