Chapter 5: more trouble

Chapter 5 more trouble

As i was falling down the cliff and to my impending doom, i thought about a lot of things, my parents my friends heck even the guy who use to bully me when i was a kid, and of all the things i could or not do for them, the things i should've said but didn't, and all the choices i've made weather right or wrong, i was thinking is this what they call, your life flash before your eyes when you're about to die?

Time seemed to slow down and details i normally don't see is are so clear and vivid. I wonder how my parents are doing right now, hopefully better than i am.

As i looked around around i was amaze on how i was able to see all the details that i don't normally see, how is this possible normal peoples brain can't process this much information in such a short amount of time, it allows me to think and see all the small details while moving in high speed, giving me time to think and plan things like i wasn't moving in high speed.

Ever since i came to this world i was constantly amaze on the things that are happening to me one after another, i don't know what is happening to me right now, but whatever it is i'm thankful for it will help me greatly in surviving this predicament.

As i looked at the eyes of the panther can see the desperation in its eyes, i bet this panther didn't expect that by chasing after me he will end up him being in this situation where hes about to die, i can see the anger and fury in its eyes, as he is about meets his end.

The behemoth is no different either, it was still not able to accept that its about to die, its eyes reflect a determination to survive at all cost, i can see its claws digging in the neck of the panther trying to forced it to let go of his neck, but the panther only tighten its jaw intending to keep on biting until he die, all of it i can see i can feel.

You will probably says i'm just imagining things, and there's no was able to see all that details in such a short time, and maybe you're right, after all up until now i was still unable to duplicate all the things i did that day.

I can feel the changes in my state of mind, im more relax now the anger is still there, anger to myself for being weak anger at the gods who let me experience this pain and suffering anger at the monster who drag me to my death, well i'm not dead yet but its only a matter of time, is what i thought, well its more like frustration than anger but for the most part i feel regret, regret on all the things i miss doing when i have a chance, regret that i wasn't able to confess to my first love, regret on how i treated my parents and friends who worries about me, regret i wasn't able to beat the shit of the guy who use to bully me as a kid, and most importantly regret that i wasn't able to meet the pretty elven maiden I've been dreaming about,

i mean what the heck is that, right?  I've only been here for two days on this magical fantasy world that i can only dream and fantasize about, and i'm already halfway to my death, so what the heck is that who can accept that right?

No no no i refuse to die like this, i can't die yet not yet! i'm only a few meters away from the raging water, my determination flares up, no way i can't accept this, but there has to be a way to

to survive! I don't care about any injury i may have acquired, as long as i can survive i'll think about the injury i suffered after i survive this ordeal.

Even before my mind think of a solution my body is already moving on its own as i began to climb up to the body of the behemoth, thats it if i can climb up and let them take away most of the impact when we slam on the water i can escape an instant death, the problem is after that darn it, do i have no choice but to leave it to luck?

This story is posted elsewhere by the author. Help them out by reading the authentic version.

I guess i have no other choice, as long as i can hold on to these monster and not get separated the damage of the waves on this rampaging river will greatly reduce on the impact on my body.

I cant believe my survival depends on this monsters, that is also the main cause of my impending doom, oh the irony!

As we near the water i grab the part of some spike on the back of the behemoth luckily it seems to run of of battery during its fight with the panther and stop discharging electricity, although it's impossible to go to the panther coz its scales is still burning if not for that the panther is a much better choice to use as a shield b'coz of its smooth scales but thinking about it maybe it's still better this way coz i'll probably much more harder to hold into the panther bcoz it lacks a place to hold on.

So i use all the strength i can muster to hold tight on the behemoth, as I prepared myself for the incoming pain..

Booom!

As we hit the surface of the water i felt the impact, it's so strong it nearly knock me out, and almost release my hold on the back of the behemoth if not for the mental preparation i made before the impact i would have been knocked out completely.

The pain surges in my whole body like a tidal wave, but gritted my teeth and continue to hold on, the first part is over, i can even taste the blood in my mouth because of the impact but i ignore all of it, luckily the flow of the water is strong, strong that even with the gigantic body of the two monster we didn't sink into the river if we sink i'll be nearly impossible to resurface b'coz of the strong current we would have been drag by the river without being able to surface, and that's what i call game over...

Contrary to what i expected, the river is very wide and on both sides endless cliff, and i see no shore, i darn it i curse! i was expecting to see a shore or something that will help me get back on dry land, but nothing and worse of all the current is getting faster and faster, if not for the sturdy and gigantic body of these monster we would have ended up being teared to pieces by the sharp rock sticking on the surface of the river.

Every time we hit the protruding rocks in the river i can feel the impact but thankfully we didn't end up being separated, i didn't know how long we've been floating in the river, and bcoz of the darkness i can't see where we going,

And that add to the tension, i didn't relax for a bit i know a small mistake will mean between life and death, and i know if i get separated to these monster ill end up being teared to pieces by rocks in the river, so i can't allow myself to relax one bit..

My strengths is fading fast for every impact my strength drains, suddenly i heard something....

Noooo Please don't let it be what i think it is... then suddenly i saw it despite the darkness i saw it....

Oh come on give me a break i shouted!

Just up ahead of us a huge waterfalls opens up like a giant gates of hell welcoming us....

I prepared myself, i took several deep breath while i convince myself by saying i can do this, i can do this, just like the time we fell off the cliff, if i can survive the fall on a cliff surely i can survive this too, i repeated told myself.

As we get closer and closer to the waterfall the rumbling of the water gets louder and louder to the points that i want to cover my ears coz of the loudness of it, 30 meters... 25 meters...

I began to take quick deep breath, 15 meters... 5 meters.. And then i felt it, the weightlessness of falling, i close my eyes coz of the water hitting my face and then THUGGG a huge impact i instantly lost consciousness....
