*The dawn appears over a vast verdant forest of towering redwoods as we transition down to a decrepit log cabin*
*The sounds of nature fills the atmosphere as birds sing their graceful love songs, flying elegantly overhead*
*at the entrance of the cabin we hear a slight creak as the door opens begrudgingly*
*A man walks out; with hair akin to a rat’s nest, he was as ebony as the cabin he came from. He appeared with a disheveled lightly melancholic grimace, as he trudged out each step echoing a deep longing…*
*As he shuffled, he began to reach his arms outward to stretch and take a deep breath soaking up the bright morning radiance as to ask it dearly to impart its energy upon him*
*He exhaled deeply, feeling new and energized his breath turning to an opaque mist on the cold air*
*He’d begin to walk with purpose, marching deeper into the forest hearing its pleasant ambience. Shining clear rainbow dew drops falling to lush forest floor, Monkeys letting off distant playful cries these sounds of had oddly enough become monotonous within his tenure*
*This man had made it to his goal an azure spring of shimmering water at the base of a waterfall the dull roar of the cascading waters calmed him further*
*He waltzed towards the water’s edge, gazing upon his reflection, appearing to lost in thought as if to wonder if that was actually him*
*After many years determination left his eyes. Emotions filled his face shame, fear, regret, and yet most of all despair*
*As he kneeled at the tranquil spring’s foot he cupped water within his hands and began to drink with great fervor as the water glided down his chin drenching his ragged clothes*
*After he drank his fill he began to undress.
His tattered wares were gently laid upon the soft moist dirt*
With sunlight shining down upon his toned body of the finest onyx. He entered the cold shallow water, glimmering in the sun.
A large flat pink band adored his waist and stomach and soon expanded and unfurled into a long thick tail the color of a brilliant rosé, it waved side to side helping him move through the clear serene waters of the spring*
*Within the water he felt a deep peace he hadn’t felt in quite a while. He’d been on edge ever since last afternoon. The man began to reminisce…*
*A distant dull glimmer manifested offshore and then suddenly roared to life with an intense effulgence! It had utterly… consumed… the sky… it shook the once stalwart earth beneath his feet and upset the tranquil sea. The intense shockwave brought him to his knees as if his very soul were hit!
*He’d worried if those people might have finally found him…*
