A Crossroad Between Heaven and Hell

Chapter 3
As Mirendin ran through the jungle the trees, vines, and flowers seemed like they were all looking at him and Lindan.

How am I going to take care of myself and Lindan while trying not to get killed at the same time, Mirendin thought.

After a few hours of running the two boys found an open field to set up camp. After Mirendin set up camp he went to scout for food. Now Lindan was alone in the hut. Being a curious little baby Lindan went exploring. Deep into the jungle Lindan crawled. Looking at every flower, touching every tree. These plants were dazzling Lindan. He crawled so far he lost his trail to get back home. This camp was not home but Lindan never got to really see his old home.

Back at the camp Mirendin just had returned from hunting for food. Mirendin happy with his kill a nice big ant eater. Usually he would eat another human, but they were scarce. He went into the hut expecting to see Lindan in his cradle, but he was gone!
Mirendin, “Great it’s not like life sucked already.”
