Wake Up And Run

Coincidence is it?

Amun's point of view

I don't know if I heard it somewhere, or if I read it somewhere else, but knowledge is power, so is it really? There is an AI chip in my brain, or so I have been told. It is still not helping me in the situation that I am in at the moment. There is this screen in front of me, that is telling me I have opened something in inventory, that I don't know how to access it or what it is. The situation that I am in is also not helping at all.

I'm alone in a scary forest, trying to survive. There are sounds behind me that seem human, but I can't tell. Strangely, I can hear it but I can't see anything. All I have in my hands is a branch of a tree that I found in the ground. I have no idea what it will help me with.

Once again, I consecrated on the screen in front of me

(Congratulations, you have unlocked your inventory)

(You can keep your belongings and whatever you are carrying in you inventory space, you can store anything and take it out whenever you want, the space is limited and can be increased when the conditions are met).

Finally, there is some explanation, but still it is missing how to use it and what is inside. Most importantly, where? Yes, where is this inventory that I unlocked, and what is in it ? Is it something I can use now to defend myself with from whatever's out there, specifically what's behind me? a lot of questions that I don't have any answers to.

Its been quite now for a few seconds, whoever was coming stopped, whatever the reason is, so this is my chance to do something, but the question is what to do?. I don't know what is behind me or what I am going to face in front of me, but just standing here and doing nothing is not an option at all.

She told herself, whispering, "I need a weapon" and tried to touch the screen in front of her where the inventory icon was showing. As her fingers were about to touch the screen, although she was not sure if it was a solid thing that could be touched or an illusion, a DING sound stopped her finger in mid air, and the screen changed to show a single screen.

Please choose the required item to withdraw it from the inventory.

At least this is good news, is what she thought, but here comes another question. She said it aloud, "How do I withdraw what I want?" It says choose the item you require to withdraw it, and what I needed most now was the weapon, "Withdraw the weapon," she waited for a few seconds, but nothing happened. If the situation was relaxed, I could have checked all the options even though I don't know what they are, but now there is a new noise and sounds coming from the same direction, and now it sounds like an animal or something running. It's similar to horse hoofs but different at the same time. It sounds heavier.

Whatever they are, they're coming my way, and I don't have any place that I can hide, so the only solution that I have is to stand my ground and defend myself. Then, talking to myself is not helping either, so she raised her finger and touched number 3, the short sword. As soon as her finger almost touched the screen, it disappeared and she felt something moving in her pocket. Her hand automatically reached to her pocket, and the moving object was one of the crystals, the square one, and she took it out. Then, with an incredible speed, the crystal changed shape and became the exact sword that was in the descriptions.

Explaining the way it changed was really hard. The change of the crystal to a sword was something out of science fiction movies. And I couldn't even follow it with my naked eyes, it was too fast for me. For lack of a better term, it was like magic, and in my hand came to be suddenly, what I needed most, a short sword, around fifty centimeters (20 inches), metallic, although I was not sure of its material, since it was a crystal to begin with, or maybe inside it, how and why I couldn't tell, but I am not going to think about it much at the moment, so I paid all my attention to what was going on behind me.

Holding the sword in my right hand, I turned around and took a few steps back, keeping my back to a tree that was beside me. Now I am ready for whatever comes, I told that to myself, then started whispering to myself, you wished for a weapon and here it is. What are you going to do with it? Do you even know how to use a sword, or how to fight with it? Then I looked at the sword in my hand, and started swinging it left and right, up and down. The weight feels right. How did I know that? I can't tell. There are a lot of things in my life at the moment that I don't know anything about.

Then I heard someone yelling, RUN...RUN... RUN...IF YOU WANNA LIVE.
