Chapter 2: Chapter 2: Run for your F#@KING life

“OH MY GOD OH MY GOD OH MY GOD” I shout as I run for my life away from the giant ape. With each stride I take I hear the ape getting louder and louder inching ever so closer to me. I run so hard and so fast I feel like my legs will fall off and running on this hard sand makes this task harder than it should be. I think back to a few moments before I was so rudely interrupted by a life-or-death situation.

“I HAVE SKILLS” I say out loud. I open my inventory screen and pull out three rocks. The rocks I have in my inventory are roughly the same size and shape of an average softball with the weight of a baseball.

“Bulls Eye Shot” I shout as I feel the power of the skill transfer to my fingers and onto the rock as it flings out of my hands. I watch as the rock travels towards the ape and lands square on his chest. However, the ape doesn’t even slow down.

“SHIT SHIT SHIT SHIT” I say as I ready another bulls eye shot. This time I send out two bulls eye shots in rapid succession, again I feel the power of the skills take hold. I watch as the rocks fly threw the air, one rock again lands right on the apes chest, but then the second rock travels a bit further up and lands directly in the apes left eye. The Red Eyed Torment Ape stops and screams in pain clutching its face as the blood drips down its hand and face.

“Hell yeah take that you oversized ape” I yell with a smile on my face. The smile I make soon drops as I see the Red Eyed Torment Ape resumes its assault towards me. “Man I should have spent that time running instead of stupidly praising myself”. I continue to run until I remember I still have more skills I can use.

***Burst of Speed***
Due to SPD stat exceeding +10 thresholds.
Run faster than normal at the expense of stamina.

“Burst of Speed” I shout out loud hoping it will make me fast enough to escape. I feel the skill go from my head down to my legs and feet and I feel a warmth overtake my lower body and then lastly, I feel a burst of speed just waiting to be unleashed. As I continue my strides, I feel my body getting lighter and lighter and I can see myself getting faster. I can still hear the ape getting more violent by the second however it can’t match my speed and I can feel myself escaping its wrath. I continue to use burst of speed until I am out of the Red Eyed Torment Apes line of sight, and I quickly run to the jungle forest opposite of the beach. I run towards to the closest tree I could find and climb up the 30 foot palm tree for dear life. As soon as I stopped climbing the tree and stopped moving, I feel the warmth of the skill leave my body.

“Oh wow I spent a lot of stamina to get away from that beast, but it was worth it now that I’m safer then being in his direct line of sight, I’m really hoping he runs right past me and I can be done with him” I think to myself. I look down the tree scanning for the ape until I see him emerge into the tree line and my field of vision. He sniffs loudly with every loud snort he inches closer towards me, as he sniffs, I can see his left eye is completely shut and stained with the apes blood.

“RRROOOOOOAAAAARRRRR” the ape yells as he spots me on top of the tree. “OH SHIT” I yell at the ape, “How am I gonna get out of this one, simply throwing the rocks at him did next to nothing with the exception of the critical hit”. The ape shakes the tree trying to throw me off the tree so he can do God knows what to me, I have no idea if this will work but its better then nothing. I hold onto the tree for dear life and I angle my inventory screen over the apes face.

“Here goes nothing” I yell as I empty my inventory of rocks onto the apes face. I watch as a cascade of rocks fall onto the ape. The Red Eyed Torment ape staggers backwards obviously in pain, however as soon as he realizes that no more rocks are falling, he continues to hammer away at the tree. I however am no longer on that tree and have hopped onto the next tree trying to yet again escape the beast. I glance back at the ape to see if he is still there.

I climb from tree to tree trying my best not to make any noise as to not alert the beast, I guess he’s to pissed off to realize I’m not there anymore. I move to the next tree as quite as I can until I can’t hear the ape yelling and screaming or having his little temper tantrum. All I hear is more sniffing coming from the direction of the ape. “Oh God not again” I think to myself as I try to continue to move forward.

“RRRROOOOOAAAAAARRRRRR” the ape yells again as he spots me yet again. This time instead of just shaking the tree he decides to throw his whole weight into the tree. He punches he kicks, and he body slams the tree trying desperately to shake me loose as I hold on for dear life until I hear a.

My worst fear has come, the ape has successfully got me off the tree I think to myself on my decent to the ground until the time has come and I feel the pain that could only come from falling 30 feet out of the air. I get the wind knocked out of me as I struggle to get back to my feet.

As I scramble to get to my feet I hear the noise that unfortunately I have come all to familiar with. “RRRRROOOOOAAAARRRRR” the ape yells as he rushes towards me, I try to run but my back and legs hurt too much to run. I slowly limp away until the ape is directly in front of me, he does nothing at first but just snorts and huff and puffs.

“What do you want you got me now, there is nothing I can do anymo……”. The ape doesn’t even let me finish my sentence and just punches me across the face. I skid across the ground about 10 feet until I finally come to a stop.

“This is it this is how I die, who would have thought I would die on an island with no idea on how I got here and with this weird video game system in my head. Goodbye Cruel world. #Deathsucks. Dying by a red eyed ape 1 out of 5 stars do not recommend” I say out loud to the audience of just myself and the ape who is now directly on top of me. The Ape raises both fists in the air the veins in his forearms almost bulging out and throws them down onto my chest. I begin to black out until I receive a system message.

***Don’t die just yet, the fun has just begin***

I feel a warmth and a slight glow stretch across my chest slowly making its way across my entire body. I begin to open my eyes and the strain across my body on where the Red Eyed Torment Ape savagely wrecked my body is more relevant than ever, however I feel like I can still move my body which shouldn’t be possible especially after the beating I just took. I look at the ape and he is backing away slowly shielding his eyes as if he was just staring at the sun. The glow from my skill must have been brighter than I thought, I think to myself. While the ape is distracted, I start to move away from him to find something that I can use to fight this monster until I see the destroyed tree that was once my temporary sanctuary away from this beast. I look at all the destroyed pieces some are to flimsy to use and some looks to heavy for me to even attempt to use, until I see one piece that is just like from Goldie locks and the three bears not to big not to small but just right. I grab the piece of broken tree, it reminds me of something you would see professional javelin user to use except this is from a tree and had a jagged point to it that could only come from being viscously destroyed. Lets give it all I got and lets finally put this beast down.

“BULLS EYE SSSSHHHOOOOOTTTTTT” I yell at the staggered beast. The all to familiar feeling of the warmth of the skill flows through my hands and onto my makeshift javelin. I throw the javelin has hard as I possibly can and it soars through the air to my target with the help of my skill. The Javelin pierces the apes chest and blood drips down from his wound, the ape looks at his wound then looks back up at me.

“RRRROOOOOOAAAAARRRRRR” the ape screams as he starts to move closer to me.

“Not this time, I’m done running from you” I yell at the Ape. “Burst of Speed” I scream feeling the power course through my legs as I run towards the ape at full speed feeling the wind push past me and I’m at the ape in a matter of a second. I grab the piece of tree still sticking out of its chest and I pull it out as blood splashes on my face. I plunge the now dislodged javelin into its one good eye as hard as I can, the ape begins to stumble backwards as I continue to stab him several times until he falls over. As the ape falls to the ground I fall down next to him panting and exhausted from my ordeal. “I beat you, you stupid ugly monkey”.

“That was to damn close, hopefully this won’t be a common occurrence” I sigh. “I don’t like coming that close to death but if I’m being honest with myself, I haven’t felt this alive in a long time” I smirk as I pass out.
