Episode 2: Shape Shifter
???
Enough with your nonsense!!!
For a while I had forgotten that he was an animal.
Agni
I'm not sure where I am right now
Agni
I was just walking through an alley and then got pulled into a hole
???
And then you landed here
And started walking away from me
I don't want to be alone over here. For some reason I find this place scary. I can't stay in an unknown place all alone
I got up to run up to him and stop him But —
I felt a sharp pain in my ankle and fell back down
He stopped and turned around
Agni
Please don't leave me alone over here.
He came to me and then picked me up in his arms.
???
I still don't really believe in you.
???
But I am not that cruel
???
Since staying here alone is dangerous and as per your story you are alone, you will follow me.
For the next two hours he carried me across the forest.
After half an hour or more he placed me on the ground
The sun was already half below the horizon ready to give it's place to the moon
He replied while collecting sticks to burn them.
Then he came towards me to pick up a dried stick near me. I picked it up for him and gave it to him. He held it but I didn't let it go.
Agni
You mean you're a shape shifter?
Agni
I didn't know shape shifters were real
???
There is no human on earth who doesn't know that
Agni
But I'm not from here.
???
Then? Are you from a different planet
Agni
I am from earth but not the one you are from.
Agni
Probably another dimension, maybe
He moved back and started setting up the sticks
Agni
It's a difficult concept maybe I'll tell you some other time
Agni
Right now you just need to know that either I have time travelled which is impossible for history had recorded no shape shifters.
Agni
Or maybe I have travelled to a different dimension's earth.
He pointed his index finger towards the pile of sticks and a blue flame came out of his finger and lighted the sticks.
???
Does your world not have magic?
Agni
Magic is a fantasy there
???
My attribute is blue flames. They are the hottest one on earth.
Just then, we heard sounds of someone stepping on the dried leaves and branches, thus making us cautious.
???
Shu!! They are behind me.
