“So you don‘t want to go back to your homeland anymore? Why is that? Don‘t you miss it anymore?”
“Because.. They.. My kind are nothing but idiots killing each other out of boredom. Males and females both so untrustworthy that if you‘d try to have one as a mate. They find another just in case they can‘t handle it or get bored or leave because get hard. Happiness is just a dream you think up just to make another day go by” turning his head towards her “I give up on my kind they are no longer mine to claim.. I have no kind any longer.. That is why.”
“Do they have no honor? Have any second thoughts about your choice?”
Chuckling softly “Of course. I have thought about it time and time again. Since I got here.. There is no honor among anyone. The only thing I regret is having to leave my daughter my parents and siblings but they have made it years without me. I am not needed there, maybe also here but here. I am somebody. I am making it better here than anytime or anywhere else there..”
“Is it that horrible, in that place? Is there no beauty? No mate worth the trouble? Nothing to change your mind?”
Scuffing “All the mates I've had turned out to be anything but a good mate."
"I used to be able to see the beauty anywhere and everywhere but as I grew."
"It has shown me how truly ugly everything is in that place. Here when I see the sunrise it fills me with such happiness that I haven't felt in so long.”
"This whole place is amazing, the food you have here like nothing I have ever tasted."
"But.. I don't think I've seen you eat anything."
"But.. I don't think I've seen you eat anything."
"They look great to eat, but sadly I can not eat what everyone does."
"You haven't had (desert type food)"
"You haven't had (desert type food)"
"No. I'm sorry, but I cannot eat whatever that is.. Although it does sound good."
"What do you eat?" the fire crackling echoed out as everyone went silent hearing the question. (name) spoke up sitting up from laying behind the pile of sticks. "I've told you all what they eat.. isn't that right? I know what I saw and you can't change my mind about it either!"
"Come on stop it!"
"Yeah that's impossible!"
Slamming their hand into the ground. "It's true! I seen it! Come on then! What do you eat!? What do you feast on." "COME ON, TE-" "I feast on so much more than what you seen.." "HA! I TOLD YOU! I KNEW IT! I WAS RIGHT! See SEE!" Pointing their finger at shaking while sitting up on their knees.
"I just didn't want you all to worry that I would do the same to you.." "I do not want to hurt anyone here. But now that you all know.. I have to leave." Turning away and walking away from the fire, disappearing into the night. "You all are safe from me, I will not bother you all, but if you ever need me just call my name and I will be there."
Sitting at near the fire everyone was silent soft mumbling taking in what was told to them and what they were traveling with. "H..ha this is a joke right?" "Joke? what?" "He just admitted it! I was right! Now do you understand!" Holding their chest "I've been protecting everyone from him! You want him to do what he did to them to you?! HUH? " "s-stop.." "Keep the fire going I'll take watch tonight!"
"STOP! WHat are you talking about!" "It's.." "Stop it!" tears were pouring out of () eyes "STOP IIIIT!! SHUT UP! YOUR WRONG HE WOULD NEVER EAT ANY OF US!" "HE'S MY FRIEND! WE MADE A PINNKIN PROMISE!" "WE GET TO HAVE MORE YUMMY FOOD! AND HE WOULD PROTECT ME FROM ANYONE!" "() you are still young you don't know the ways he could have" "Stop.. it's () were talking about ha.. there's no way haha this has to be a joke." standing up and ran into the forest
"Hey! wait (name) is this a joke?! Hey get back here! Come on!" "Hey () don't get back here leave him alone we'll discuss this in the morning! () come back here! You said to call out well get back here! It's late.. it's safer if we know where you are wouldn't you think so?! That way nobody wo-" () yelled out. "AH! WHAT!! NO!!!" everyone at the fire turned in the direction of the yell before running into the forest without hesitation.
"I warned you all I told you! I told you!" Laughter soon followed as () was laughing out loud. "HA! HAHAHAHA! HA HAAAAA! DO IT AGAIN!" Laughter filled the night sky as everyone slowed their pace before running again to find out what's going on. "TOLD YOU!!!" () screamed out as they wiped their tears away a large smile spreading across their faces.
"So do you think I could coexist with everyone?" "Huh?" "Uh will everyone accept me back?" "I-I don't think () will.. I don't know think how you could change their mind." () lifted their arms up. "Binding me up would most likely be the only way." "()! where are you?!" "HERE! I'm over here!.. are you sure about that?" () shrugged his shoulders "it's the only thing I can think of that everyone and () will feel safer. and accept me around."
Pulling out some rope and began tieing his arms behind his back. "I'm sorry about this." "It's alright.. it's my idea.. hopefully this will be enough.." His head lowered a bit looking at the rope by his side. Fingers moved around slightly. "NO STOP IT!" () stared at the bindings around his arms rushing over. Punching and kicking (), "RUN! STOP HE'S NOT GOING TO HURT ANYONE!" "Ow () stop! I know this was his idea!" "What no! your lying!" "().. it was my idea. don't worry we can still play together promise." "But. what kind of games can we play when you can't use your hands!" () tugging on the ropes, () grabbing () from behind pulling her away. "Stop () come on.. stop.." "() was this really your idea?"
"Yes.. being tied up would make everyone feel safer with me around.." "Then tonight.. we will keep them on you sorry.. looking af-" "After everyone yes I know." nodding his head before looking down at the ground. () struggled against () "Hey ow stop it" "THIS IS UNFAIR! THIS IS WRONG! LET HIM GO!" "You'll understand one day, but for right now this is something to keep him and everyone safe." "I don't like it!" () laying limp in () arms sniffling some before standing straight up wiping her eyes. "I DON'T LIKE IT!"
"Oh I like it.. I like it a lot!" () stood with their weapon still drawn "I told you all now what are we going to do with him! we can't let him get aw-" "() I said in the morning.." "And you think he's just going to let us do this! it's a trick! now we know what he is!" "In the morning!" "why were you laughing earlier?" "Oh uh he uhmm" "() asked me about it, and I told () what I eat... asked me to show them.." "The face that () seen" turned his head to () for a moment "right. what kind of face that () has seen." "What? What's this face?" "No sorry I don't want to right now () might get frightened and I don't feel safe.."
"W-wha-hat N-n-Oo I won't! I seen it so you best not try and fool anyone!" "..() would you put down your weapon I will sit down and let you tie my legs together" sitting down on the ground showing his legs to (). "I trust you will not tie them incorrectly." "() put it down. I'll tie him" "NO! don't get close that's what he wants.. take me out first I know what you really look like." "Then who should tie me up ()"
() looked around and grumbled slowly putting down their weapon on the ground. "This better not be a trick" ()laid down the rest of the way laying on his hands. "There i'm laying still, will this be helpful to you?" "SHUT UP D-DON'T TALK TO ME! MONSTER!" tying the rope along his legs knotting it at each part of the ropes connected. "() are you done?"
tugging on the rope some before clearing their throat stepping away nodding their head. "Y-yeah that.. that should be enough.. H-hopefully" a soft gulp came from his throat looking down at where he place his weapon not finding it. "What? wha-ere?" "I have it.." having it pointed at (). "That's my.. fine! alright come monster show your real face!"
"()... could you look away please.. I don't want you to see this." "NO they deserve to know what you look like monster!" "...O-okay. () please don't be afraid" () sitting up a bit closing his eyes "Okay.. I'm going to change I am still me.. but this is also me.. () knows only part of what I actually look like. I will count down from five and once I am at zero I will show my true face. Is that alright? with everyone." "Yeah.." "Do it." "Five." "Four." "Three." "Two." "One."
