My Destiny

Arrival

In Age 382, on an island away from the city of Dore, was a jungle with all kinds of wild animals. Nine years ago, in that very same jungle, lived a baby who seemed to have appeared from thin air. The baby was then picked up by a man named Tiger. Tiger raised this kid like it was his own and he taught him how to hunt and how to survive in the jungle. During their time together, Tiger named the boy, Jaguar, due to his attachment to jaguars. One rainy day, Jaguar wandered the jungle looking for Tiger, but he wasn’t to be found. Jaguar then finds Tiger’s leaf bandana as he starts to cry. Jaguar then puts the bandana on as he tearfully says, “One day, I’ll make it out of here and I’ll be a hero just how you wanted. To make sure I have a piece of you with me, I’ll wear this all the time and won’t let anything happen to it. I swear Tiger, I swear.” Seven years later, Jaguar was laying in the dirt crying and holding his stomach. A storm has been going on for the past five weeks and hasn’t let up. Jaguar and a few animals were trapped with no food or water. “I haven’t eaten in weeks, damn. If I don’t eat no food or get any water in about a week, then I’m done for.” Jaguar says. Trees then start to break down and fall on Jaguar as his blood slowly leaves him. Five days then passed as the tigers and jaguars were taking Jaguar away from the jungle. The jaguar carrying Jaguar tosses him closer to Dore as he falls with the other jaguars and tigers. The tigers and jaguars swam in the ocean all the way to Dore. Jaguar wakes up for the first time in five days as he sees he can't see the jungle and that the animals are dying. “What’s going on? Are you guys okay? Where are we?” Jaguar asks. The tigers and jaguars then die as Jaguar goes into shock and cries. “No, no, no, no, not again. I can’t lose you guys too. I already lost the other two. You were the only family I had left.” Jaguar says tearfully. One of the jaguars seemed to still be alive as it struggled its way to Jaguar. The jaguar then carves “Forever,” in Jaguar’s arm as Jaguar passes out. The day passes as three teens walk past where Jaguar is and then notices Jaguar. One of the teens picks up Jaguar as they all run to a hospital. One hour passes as Jaguar wakes up in a hospital room. “Wh, where am I?” Jaguar asks. “Oh, you finally woke up. You gave us quite the scare, but you’ll be fine. With the injuries you had, you should be resting for another couple of days. However, it seems that in just another hour, you’ll be fine.” A doctor says. Jaguar jumps out of the bed and tries to attack the doctor. The doctor dodges Jaguar as he hits him in the neck. Jaguar is then knocked out. “The way he attacked me, it was weird. He attacked me as if he was hunting me down. He must've grown up in some distant jungle or something. I wonder how long it was. It might lead to how he was put into this state." The doctor says. Another hour passes as Jaguar wakes up again, but this time strapped down. Jaguar struggles to escape as he screams, “Get me the hell out of here! I don’t know who you are, but I won’t let you kill me!” “Calm down, boy. We’re not going to hurt you in any way. We’re the ones that saved you. Please, just calm down.” The doctor pleads. Jaguar then calms down as he asks, “What do you want with me?” “We just want to know what happened to you?” The doctor replies.
