The Goblins Revenge 2 Chapter 02

Groggily, Will woke up. To his surprise he felt a lot stronger than before. For a second he thought he was back in his human body, and that everything before was a horrible dream. However that wasn't the case, his surroundings were a lot darker than where he had been feeding, but he could still see quite well. He heard the snoring of his brothers in the same room, there were seven of them. He slowly walked out of the cave in a cautious manner, but as soon as he came out of the cave entrance and into a wider tunnel, someone grabbed his neck and lifted him off the ground. He struggled for a bit but didn't yell or scream, the adult Goblin holding him up was looking at Will carefully. The Goblin showed Will a wry smile then started carrying will further down the tunnel.

After following the tunnel and pa.s.sing several entrances, they reached a similar dome shaped room like the one Will had previously encountered, but this one was slightly smaller and had a pile of rags on one end and some sticks at the opposite end. The adult Goblin let go of Will and grunted at him, while shoving Will along with his foot. Will had a confused look on his face, but soon realized he was being nudged in the direction of the clothes. However Will didn't do as the adult Goblin wanted and instead ran towards the sharp sticks, he stumbled a bit along the way but he didn't slow down. Ever since Will woke up in this body, he had a certain knot in his heart. It had been there all along, it was a type of despair, a sense of lack of control. He wanted to take back some control in his life, which is why he ran towards the sticks. He pick up the one that looked the st.u.r.diest and immediately got in an attack stance. Will had no previous martial arts experience, however he took a stance that seemed the most logical from what knowledged he had absorbed from media in his previous world.

The adult Goblin looked at Will with a very surprised expression, but then suddenly started laughing.The Goblin walked towards will with his stick aimed at Will, but not in a threatening manner, he looked almost playful. However the sharp toothed grin on the Goblins face still made him look menacing. Once the Goblin reached Will, he started swinging the stick. Will had taken a wide legged stance giving him more stability, so once the swings that he parried didn't knock him on his back, the Goblin was surprised. The swings started getting a bit faster and stronger, and Will was struggling a lot to stay on his feet. He didn't want to give up, the knot in his heart started throbbing, it was as if Will was getting a panic attack. Despair showed in Wills eyes, as he let out a scream. Will pulled back his stick on the latest swing from the Goblin instead of parrying. The Goblin lost his balance as his swing had completely missed Will. Will took this opportunity to thrust his stick forwards and he managed to stab the Goblin in the thigh. The Goblin let out a blood-curdling scream and started rolling on the ground in pain.

Almost immediately another Goblin came running into the small cave. Will panicked thinking he was going to get killed for attacking another Goblin. However the second Goblin just stood there taking in the scene. To Wills surprise the second Goblin just started laughing hysterically. More and more Goblins entered the room, and after exchanging a couple of guttural words with each other they all started to laugh. The biggest of the new Goblins walked up to Will and grabbed his stick, but Will didn't want to let go. The big Goblin yanked again and stick again straight out of Wills hands. He then grabbed Will by the neck with his other hand and walked out of the room while laughing. They soon reached a smaller room, this room was different than the ones Will had been in before. It had some adornments on the ground. Will saw a wolf pelt, some polished rocks and to his surprise a large leather helmet. This was the first piece of 'advanced' technology Will had seen since coming to this world. As soon as the big Goblin released Will, he ran towards the leather helmet and examined it. [It's too big to fit a Goblin head, so why would this be here? Is it a trophy like the pelt?], it suddenly dawned on Will, this was a human helmet. He had forgotten that he was a Goblin, and Goblins were much smaller than human, at least according to the fantasies from his previous world.

The big Goblin walked over to Will, and with a proud look on his face he patted the helmet. He then let out a short grunt while pointing at the helmet. Will looked confused for a second but wondered if the grunt from the Goblin was actually a the world for helmet. Will tried repeating the grunt. The Goblin looked surprised at Will for a second, then he chortled and patted Will on the head. The Goblin went into a corner in the room and grabbed a piece of dried meat from a small stone bowl, he brought it back to Will and threw it in front of him. Will grabbed it and ferociously gnawed on it. While eating the piece of meat, Will took a closer look at the big Goblin. To Wills surprise, this Goblin was actually quite different. He had more defined muscles and plenty of scars, he was even missing a piece of his pointed ear. Will decided to call this Goblin 'Chief'. Will had a.s.sumed this was the Chief of the Goblins because of all the trophies in the room and the rough appearance of the Goblin. That and none of the other Goblins had objected when Will was taken away from the violent scene.

While consuming the dried meat, Will soon felt the knot in his heart loosen slightly. He wasn't very comfortable, but he felt slightly safer, at least compared to before. Will started nodding off, and with a half eaten piece of meat in his mouth, Will fell asleep on the floor of the Chiefs room.
