The Future Hurts. A Lot.

Chapter Two

I sighed as I heard a knock on the door. I rubbed my eyes and walked over, opening the door. I saw the exact same stranger as before

"Lemme guess. Its time?" i said, slightly annoyed

"Yeeeppp.." he said happily

i sighed and walked back inside, grabbed my bag that i had packed, and Sparks. I then followed the man outside, and hopped onto Cyan.

"Cyan, follow that man, and stay on high alert"

i whispered, still suspicious of the man. Cyan squacked and followed the man after tucking sparks into his saddle bag.

the mans dodo was running away from the town, which was making my suspicions grow. Awhile later, we finally stopped, and my gaze was locked on something beautiful. In a land full of robots and tek, this forest was the most beautiful thing i had ever seen. We had stopped near a few other people, who were watching us closely. There was 2 guys, and 2 girls, me included. The guys were both riding tek raptors and the other girl was riding a tek baryonx.

I waved happily, which was replied to with more waves. I rode cyan over to the others, Sparks chirping quietly in the saddle bag.

"So, howd you guys get roped into this?" i asked, trying to start small talk.

"Got cornered while dragging metal." the girl responded, which was the only response she got.

Sparks squacked, before forcing his way out of the bag and onto my lap. I pat his head once more, stroking his feathers. I looked up as the man started to speak

"As you all know, you are here to scout out the forest, and search for weaknesses. You shall set off now, and not leave until you find a weakness. Understood?" he said, looking each of us in the eyes

We all nodded, and set off into the forest. As soon as we entered, I felt like a million pairs of eyes were staring at me. I internally started to panic, but tried not to show it on the outside. As soon as I showed a weakness, everything inside this forest would use it against me in a split second.
