Noah didn't listen to the man; He's barely more intimidating than the bunny rabbit I had at
ten years old, Noah thought to himself, scoffing a bit. He slowly lowered his hands,
hoping that the manwas more focused on seeing his face than where his hands were going.
His hands gradually made their way to his hoodie's front pockets; he dug around in there,
and what was inside? Rocks. He had kept them because he never knew when he needed to
use them— whether he ended up throwing them into the eyes of bears or just skipping
them across the river. This time, he was ready to pelt the rocks at someone.
Instincts kicking in as the man raised his voice, Noah started moving his legs rapidly,
beginning to run. As fast as he could, he ran in a zig-zag motion so it would be
harder to catch him. He then hid, behind a thick oak tree, seeing the man's face
from his hiding spot. He was tall, with almost no hair, and had strong features.
Noah wasn't paying too much attention to those, however, because he was too
busy trying not to get captured and eaten. He picked a heavier rock out of
his pocket and darted it as close to the man's face as he could. He then threw
a couple more rocks at him for good measure, before turning to run off again.
Noah couldn't get too far, for soon he found his legs scratched and bleeding
a bit, his body on the grassy floor. He had tripped over a large thorny bush,
for he wasn't looking ahead of him. He looked upwards, to see a man ob-
viously older than him, and he seemed to have been picking berries.
It was a bit embarrassing, he thought, and closed his eyes for a few seconds,
sighing. I feel pretty stupid, Noah thought to himself. He probably
thinks I'm stupid. What am I even doing, running from the only sign of
life here for days? He questioned himself, opening his eyes again, and
looking at the sky. Hey, maybe if I just lay here and pretend I don't see
him he'll do the same; and I can get back to running away from the
cannibals. He thought to himself. He may have been surviving and holding
his own for the past couple days— but in the end, he was still just an awkward teenager.
