Limits. Limits Chapter 104

We were getting closer to the path in the south . I said to Sh.e.l.ly "When we go down, we will have to travel back north a bit . I want to go where that fog was, maybe we will find something interesting over there" . Sh.e.l.ly was sceptical about the path but we went there anyway .

Just before we had our lunch, it was time to play the game . I said to Sh.e.l.ly "This time I'm going to win! Hahahaha" . It was my turn to start . Sh.e.l.ly looked at me attentively and waited for me to finish doing something . I went forward couple of steps and somersaulted forward . This time Sh.e.l.ly didn't have a grin on its face, rather it looked quite grim . I said "Ha! try repeating this!" to which Sh.e.l.ly shook its head to mean that it couldn't do that .

I said "You thought it will be something easy again but Hahaha . You've lost so it is your turn to get food and you have to bring it here!" . Sh.e.l.ly wasn't very pleased but I didn't care, I've lost twice already and I wouldn't make it easy for Sh.e.l.ly either .

While Sh.e.l.ly went deeper into the forest to get something to eat, I rested near the cliff . I watched the clouds and the scenery that was displayed in front of me . The view from the top of the cliff was great, especially during a nice sunny day . I've waited for about 20 minutes and heard some rustling coming from the forest . I thought 'Sh.e.l.ly is probably coming back with the 1st animal it hunted' .

I turned around and saw a bloodied Sh.e.l.ly walking towards me . Without thinking, I ran over and asked "What happened to you? These parts of the forest are not that populated with strong beasts" . but Sh.e.l.ly was too tired to explain, it only made some noises due to pain . I took out medicine from my bag and applied it all over Sh.e.l.ly, I also gave Sh.e.l.ly some Vital Liquid to drink to heal its internal injuries .

I waited patiently for Sh.e.l.ly to get better and thought about possible things that could've happened to Sh.e.l.ly while it hunted . After about an hour or two, Sh.e.l.ly was finally feeling much better and started explaining what happened . "Right, so you went into the forest and saw a small group of wolves that you wanted to hunt . When you killed most of them, something else attacked you . It didn't injure you heavily so you were still at almost full strength . You wanted to take care of that something but then realised it was bunch of humans . They attacked you more while you tried to take them out but it was difficult because they all used weird tactics and you couldn't get close . You decided to run away and that is how you got here" . Sh.e.l.ly nodded and made some more noises .

I said "So, some kind of human group wanted to hunt you or maybe capture you? Where was that incident?" to which Sh.e.l.ly showed me the general direction it came from . I said "Wait here and hide yourself, I will deal with that" but Sh.e.l.ly made more noises to mean I shouldn't go . I said "I will be back soon, just hide yourself and rest" then went inside the forest .

I said "Wait here and hide yourself, I will deal with that" but Sh.e.l.ly made more noises to mean I shouldn't go . I said "I will be back soon, just hide yourself and rest" then went inside the forest .

I wouldn't mind other humans hunting in this forest, the forest wasn't just mine but attacking my family and doing so in sneaky ways, was a death sentence to that group . I wouldn't just forget about it and leave, they had to pay for what they did!

I searched the forest in the general direction that Sh.e.l.ly pointed to but couldn't find anything . I though 'It's been couple of hours, they must've been gone for a while now . It would be hard to find them' .

I searched for a bit more but didn't manage to find them, I did find the location where Sh.e.l.ly fought with the wolves and later the group of humans but there were too many tracks to follow . I couldn't determine where the group of humans went . I had to give up and leave . When I returned to the cliff, I called out to Sh.e.l.ly "I'm back, you can come out now" but there was no answer . I thought 'That is weird, where did Sh.e.l.ly go?' I called out again "Sh.e.l.ly! where are you?" but I heard nothing . Now I started to sweat 'Where is that turtle?' .

I searched and searched and finally found something . Sh.e.l.ly left a drawing, in what I a.s.sumed its hiding place . When I deciphered the drawing, I knew what happened and the rage inside me almost burst outside . If what the drawing suggested was correct, Sh.e.l.ly was taken by the same group of humans . These b.a.s.t.a.r.ds didn't chase Sh.e.l.ly on purpose and let it run away to me . 'They knew I would go search for them and this was when they tricked me' I thought . If I stayed, they would have to face me but because I was so p.i.s.sed, I just had to go and search for them .

If I stayed, they would have to face me but because I was so p.i.s.sed, I just had to go and search for them .

'Those b.a.s.t.a.r.ds are not stupid . Yet they forgot about one crucial thing, ME!' I thought and took out a map . I soon found a very large village couple of days worth of travel on my map . I thought 'So they probably went to that village' . I didn't wait any longer and used my full speed to chase after them in the direction of that village . Even if I had to, I would burn that village down to get Sh.e.l.ly back . As for that group of humans? They would receive the most painful deaths they would be able to imagine!

I ran for couple of hours then took a break and like so a day pa.s.sed . I saw no sign of that human group but they had to be close if they traveled towards the same village . After a night's rest I continued my pursuit . After about an hour or two of running . I found a camp that was abandoned not too long ago . 'So, they were here . I'm not far away from them in that case . I don't believe they didn't leave any tracks behind . If I search very thoroughly, I might be able to find something' I thought .

I searched the area and found couple of tracks leading in different directions . "So they want to cover their tracks and mislead me to somewhere else but they forgot about something again" . I walked towards a piece of ground and saw a drawing . "Sh.e.l.ly is with them and as long as Sh.e.l.ly can move just one claw, it will help me find them" . I now knew the direction they went into, the chase continued . I was wondering what type of methods did they use in order to restrain Sh.e.l.ly . Sh.e.l.ly was very strong and wouldn't just sit idly waiting for nothing . Sh.e.l.ly was quite heavy, there must be someone in that group who can carry Sh.e.l.ly for a day or couple of people who interchange carrying it . I guessed that I would find out when I catch up to them .

At night, I stopped the chase just to rest and be ready for a fight, I needed to be at my prime when I encounter those b.a.s.t.a.r.ds . I woke up early in the morning and gave chase almost immediately . They had to eat and sleep just like me but I already had some leftover meat from killing animals on my way .

In the afternoon, I caught signs of human presence . I slowed down, I knew I was getting closer . They probably thought that I couldn't find them due to the tracks left in their previous camp . I slowed down but still chased after them .

I took more regular rests and ate more food just to be at my prime and finally the night came . When I traveled through the night, I saw fire in the distance . 'Finally! I caught up to you b.a.s.t.a.r.ds!' I thought and silently made my way forwards .

When I arrived near their camp, I saw a group of 10 humans sitting near the fire . Some were drinking something while other chatted and ate . I could also see Sh.e.l.ly tied up by some kind of strange rope . Sh.e.l.ly was tired from what I could see, I guessed that it struggled to break free but that rope was very st.u.r.dy . I thought 'Now, all of you are just walking corpses' and started devising a plan of action . We were getting closer to the path in the south . I said to Sh.e.l.ly When we go down, we will have to travel back north a bit . I want to go where that fog was, maybe we will find something interesting over there .
