Chapter 5 - Extra Cover
I woke up the next morning with the scent of pine under my nostrils.
The scent was so manly, so smoothing... it was warm.
I leaned into it and grabbed the fabric with my hand, bringing it closer to my face.
Then, the sound of footsteps made me open my eyes in a half-awake state.
The assassin, Li Wei, walked towards me with two dead rabbits in his hands.
Throwing them onto the floor in front of me, he made me jump up, waking myself up forcefully.
That's right... I ran away from home yesterday and now, I'm travelling with the assassin who massacred my whole city, Li Wei.
I guess that I'm his personal chef but I won't let him forget what I'm here for.
I went to get up when I realised that I was wearing a blanket.
Hold on... this wasn't a blanket. This was his top robe!
I quickly got up and handed it back to him, flushed and embarrassed as I took the knife and quickly went to clean out the meat in the pond.
The water was so clear, I was surprised.
As I cleaned out the meat, I heard the sound of metal sharpening against a rock.
He really does sharpen that sword of his a lot.
I finally finished preparing the meat and by that time, he had lit up the fire.
While I cooked them, I noticed that he took an egg out from his pocket and went to crack it against the side of the rock.
He did just that and proceeded to drink the contents. I was stunned.
Aluna Yan
Wait, where did you find eggs?
How he got up in the trees is beyond me.
Aluna Yan
Do you have any more?
He then produced three more eggs and I grinned.
I took them, and as I did, he snarled.
Aluna Yan
Calm down! Let me cook them for you! It'll increase the nutritional value...
I took a flat stone and cracked it onto it.
I then put it between the flames and I looked as the flames turned the white crispy golden.
After that, I took a stick and pulled the stone out, producing a cooked egg. I sprinkled some herbs over it and just as I went to turn around to get him, he had already taken his knife and sliced the egg right off of the stone and ate it all in one gulp.
He likes it? Thank goodness, I get to keep my life for now!
Aluna Yan
When are we going to start?
There was a moment of silence.
Aluna Yan
My training, of course. You promised to help me become stronger.
He turned towards me and sighed. Getting up, he took his sword which was leaning against the wall and walked towards the entrance to the cave.
Am I doing an okay job at writing so far?
