《Orge》 Why cant i just sleep all day? Ah I truly love sleep, the feeling of peace. No matter where I may sleep, It is always a wonderful feeling. However sometimes dreams play tricks on you, They make it seem like the world is not the one you know. I truly hate when I cant tell dream from reality, Since it makes it so much more scary. As hear the birds chirping away, the wind rustling the grass. I realize something very important, something that truly matters. This is not a dream, Somehow I am outside laying in the grass. I open my eyes and take a quick look around, The air feels clean, The clouds blanket the sky. "Oh well, I''ll worry about it later", I quickly close my eyes and flip over to my other side. Several minutes later the rain starts sprinkling, I let out a soft groan and got up. Raising my head to look at the sky, Several patches of dark clouds appear in my site. After making several grunting sounds I take a look around, a entire dense area of grass, small patch of trees is all that is around me. Taking a deep breath I start moving forward, the grass hinders some of my movements. Worry hits me, the grass comes up to my waist, recalling the fact that snakes liked to hide in grass to ambush prey. With the extra adrenaline my sense increase, trying to listen for a rattling sound as I move forward. After moving for awhile the rain starts failing even harder, slowly getting soaked from my head to my shoes. Slowly but surely it becomes harder to move my clothes are starting to weigh me down. Letting out a huge sigh I move continue moving forward hoping to reach the small patch of trees in the distance. After about thirty minutes of pushing forward I final reach the tree, After getting a close look at them I think they are rather strange. each one of them doesn''t have many outlining branches until the very top where it roots out. The leaves are spread out in a circle, like a fan keeping most of the water out. Each one is about the size of a window, as they go further away from the root they curve slowly both sides come together. Looking around I see several holes at the bottom of the trees, most likely critters that made a nest. Letting out a sigh while looking down at my clothes, wondering what to do now. After looking around I see bark like wood laying around the trees, after staring and wonder why its so intact I start picking them up. Several minutes after pilling up a huge group of the strange bark, I start arranging them in a circle fashion, trying to make what little defense against the element''s that I could. After several minutes of work it would now seem to be done, however crappy it may be. Looking at my "shelter" or rather my circle of woods I look searching for grass. Sadly it looks like these trees water starved them all only a small collection of moss seems to have survived. Unauthorized duplication: this tale has been taken without consent. Report sightings.Making a quick choice I slowly go to the edge of small forest, looking for any collection of dry grass that I could find. I collected what i could find, its enough where i will not have to touch the ground, Thankfully. After arranging it from outside my bundle of sticks for several minutes, I slowly step in. Letting out a great yawn, i lay down on the grass mat then curl up into a ball trying to get warm. Time for the best part of this day, a nice deep sleep, but before i can fall asleep a thought rises up "just where the hell am i?" well I''ll worry about it later. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PoV Random farmer Ah time to work the fields last nights rain sure was something. Hm looks like something was in my wheat field? Maybe it was some damn kids, Really need to get a new dog that ones getting too old. My face slowly turns red with anger "THEY SMASHED TOO MUCH FUCKING WHEAT". goddamn kids i swear ill find out who did this, following the trail after several minutes it lead to my lok trees. I swear if they took the harvest from those trees ill hunt em down! As i slowly look around i notice that the fire woods all gone. Well fuck the fire wood, its not too important out here. Reaching my hand under the tree i grip the bucket trying to get a weigh on it. the farmer said "its a good day" With a wide grin know his harvest wasn''t stolen the previous anger all gone with his new discovery. "shame about the wheat though oh well can always grow some more." turning around taking a quick glance at all his trees he smiles turns around then he pauses. Slowly he turns around and what came into his sight is a ogre or at least it seems, curled up in a ball. Staring down at the ogre he slowly backs up, with cold sweat coming down his back. heart beating like crazy, he turns and he runs as fast as he can running and yelling something about a ogre. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Ding you have been called Ogre, you are currently unnamed would you like to accept? "ya no give me a few more minutes" he said as he stretched out and flopped on his other side. You have accepted please enjoy you new name Ogre. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Auther note He is human i just wanted to calarify that. Dirty looks are never nice Author note I imagined the tree as sort of a tropical kind of tree, However the leaves would be a bit bigger for catching rain water. They also periodically release a liquid into the ground, however view it as you see everyone sees things there own way. -------------------------- Random farmer PoV Run, Run, as fast as I can got to tell everyone got to tell! sweat streaking his face he kept running until he reached the keep. Several guards stared at him running from the distance, Resting their hands on the shaft of there spear. As he slowly came up the to the keep the guards got more and more anxious. "ORGE,ORGE" he yelled as he fell down in exhaustion, The guards looked at him and then to each other with dumbstruck faces. -------------------------- "hm??" waking up from my sleep I smell something wonderful in the air, it seems like freshly cooked stew. Bringing my upperpart upwards I started looking around sniffing the air trying to find where that smell is coming from. "Ah?" a giant cage is siting a few yards away from me with a big pot inside, the steam floats out of it. I look around seeing if anyone is there, I see a couple of shadows behind the trees moving. Looks like its a trap, but why would they want to trap me? My stomach let out a growling sound, looking around once more I see the shadows moving around again. Thinking about it for several seconds I think "well I''m already surrounded guess ill just go in the cage no need to fight them all". Grabbing the ladle that was attached to the side of the pot I stir it and take a small taste, "not bad" I think. Unfortunately several seconds later I figure out that it might be a tad to hot. But before I cant think anymore about that the cage swings down locking me inside. Four people rush out behind the tree holding a chain each of them dressed in rags and a collar around there neck. Each of them rushes up to the entrance of the gate, looking at them I cant help but have a weird expression. "Why are the so tiny?" I thought to myself. After they got close to it they grab the chains and twisted them around the bars as much as they could. "Sob" each of them feel to there knees and started crying, it was like a waterworks. Several minutes later one got up and ran between the trees moving far out of sight. Sighing to myself I move up to the bars of the cage looking at them, and then I put my hands onto the cage bars. Using one tenth of my strength I start trying to pull them apart, the people outside look at me in shock. .... The bars didn''t budge, alright ill use one half this time I can definitely do it with only one half. Hey don''t laugh at me.... the people outside the cage watch me try two times and fail two times. Siting there with tears stains on there checks yet they are laughing away, ok no more joking around. A metal sounds rings out when I put my full strength into it, pushing my body to the utmost limit I slowly bend the two bars. However right as I start really trying I hear horse hooves pounding against the ground In the distance. Five men on horse slowly come around entering the forest, four of them have spears resting in there hands, along with a sword hung on there belt. Each of the four men are dressed in a grayish tunic, like they had not even been casted In die at all. The fifth however was dressed in a light blue tunic, with a symbol of a rock painted in the center. He rode his horse up to me, then looked down with a cold detached face, looking at that smug face I couldn''t help but have the urge to punch him. While having eye contact with a stranger is always fun I couldn''t help but look back the four horsemen dismounted. Then they slowly surrounded the cage with there spears in at stabbing motion, Holding the label in my hand I could help but bring it up hopeful it will be some form of self defense. Bringing my head back towards the fifth man I see he''s inspecting the bars, after several second he brings his hand up and points at one of the four men. Stolen from Royal Road, this story should be reported if encountered on Amazon.Speaking in a unknown language he waved him away, the fourth man quickly bows and runs to the nearest horse. After mounting the horse he quickly leaves the scene, rushing out of the small forest with dust leaving up in his horses trail. While he doing all this the fifth man mounted on the horse looks back on the ragged and collared people on the side of the forest. Each one of them was kneeling on the ground with there heads down, as if waiting for something. Lifting his hand once again the fifth man signals the third man, said third man reaches into his pocket. After fumbling around in his pocket he slowly brings out a key rack, Around dozen or so are on it. Looking at the ragged men on the ground he lets out a small laugh and takes one key of the chain. Then he gives out a cruel smile and throws it in front of the four slaves, each one of them takes a look at the key and starts to pale. Taking a quick glance at the third man they each rush towards the key, one grabbing another''s leg trying to slow them down. After several seconds of rushing towards the key one makes it however before he can put it in the collar, another pulls him back and starts punching him. Loses barbaric acts I turn around and start drinking some of the soup its not as hot now. While enjoying my meal I turn my head around to peek at them fighting only three are left the one who had the key before was killed by the joint efforts of the other three. Turning my head back to my meal I keep eating, going to need my strength that''s for sure. After eating my fill I turn my head back , the fight has climaxed with one siting over the other with a rock in hand about to smash down. Licking my lips one last time I grab my ladle , "ah this is gonna hurt" Is what I thought. Turning my body in a running stance I ran into the bars I weakened early, Bursting out of my cage I grip that smug bastard on his horse. Pulling him down I hit him with my ladle right in his damn smug face knocking him out in the process, turning around I see that the guards are rushing up to me raising their spears in a throwing motion. Throwing my ladle at one of them hitting him in the head, causing him to fly backwards and fall on his back. Another One comes flying at me I got into a stance with my left foot in a backwards position and my right in a front position. Griping that arrogant sonabitch off the ground I raised him in a arcing motion and used his body to shield my from the spear. CRUNCH the spear went though the smug assholes chest and most likely hit a lung. After seeing what I did the one that threw the spear turned deathly pale, grabbing his sword out of the scabbard and pulling it out he rushes forward. The other guard seeing what happened to the other two has sweat streaking down his face. Very quickly I reach around my shield and grab the spear sticking out of it, the man with the sword out comes running at me right as his Companion on the opposite of the cage is getting at and stabs his spear towards me. Lowering my shield I jump backwards then rush my shield into the spear and swinging my spear around stabbing his throat. Jumping back a sword whistle thought the air moving my entire body to the side trying to dodge it I barely get away by a hairs breath. Looking around I see that the third man has already fled, the swordsman doesn''t run up this time instead he slowly circles around. My shield starts making groaning sounds looking down at it with a odd expression I shake my shield tell it shuts up. Sadly that''s when the Swordsman attack rushing up to me however I turned my shield towards him and charged, Shield bashing him. As he lost his balance I rushed up and shield bashed him once more, causing him to fall over. I rushed up to him and jumped up, Then I aimed both feet on his head. CRUNCH it seems I weigh enough to break a skull, well a fun fact is always nice. ------------------------------------------------------- Author note I hoped u guys enjoyed it.
