Murder

Holy crap.

I am standing next to an entirely picked clean skeleton of the boar, somethings are still eating the bone.

Disgusting.

I'm hungry too, all that evolution is taxing.

Hmmm…

I’m going to migrate. I will find the perfect place for a nest and feeding grounds.

But what direction?

Eh, it doesn’t matter, this away!

I just run in a random direction for hours.

At this point, I am panting heavily.

All I have seen are a few forests way too dangerous for me, bears and wolves and stuff.

Until I finally see something.

Is that a town?

There is a very tall wooden wall in front of me. A palisade, to be exact.

What use is this?

What if they have granaries? I could kill rats or something.

I notice a small gap in the wall.

Oooh.

I poke my head in and see some cheese.

Well, even better, food, and cheese at that!

I waltz in happily and devour the cheese, only the realize my mistake when I hear a

*Creee, CRASH*

It was a vermin cage.

Well, I’m royally screwed. Time to wait for the sweet release of death.

I suppose I will die a chicken in this world.

I wait for hours and hours, the sun goes down.

I’m still here at sunrise.

So hungry…

*thonk*

I fall over onto the cold cage.

I hear speaking.

SYSTEM ALERT

You fainted due to malnutrition

This is just my luck…

I’m fading.

SYSTEM ALERT

You will die of starvation in

7 hours, 34 minutes, 5 seconds

I hear someone speaking.

I fall into unconsciousness again.

*chirp, chir-CHRR*

A cricket.

I open my eyes to see I’m in a cage.

What is happening?!

I feel a faint coming on, so I weakly capture and eat the cricket.

SYSTEM ALERT

Nutrition acquired, note you are still critically hungry

???: “We’re gonna eat well tonight.”

The cage is being carried by a burly lumberjack-like human.

I'm going to die.

Please god, at least don’t let me die a chicken.

This unknown guy- human- puts my cage on a log and heads over somewhere else.

He takes a second, but he comes back. He has something in his hands, an axe.

Oh shit.

*creee*

My cage opens, and as he tries to grab me, I dash under his hand and out of the cage

Lumberjack Guy: “Confound it, get back here!”

OOOOoh god, I hope I’m faster than him.

Luckily, I am faster than him.

Until my first obstacle comes, a split, two hallways.

Uuhhh, uhh, left, sure, let's go with that!

I turn on a dime left, until I realize, it is a door.

Lumberjack Guy: “Gotcha now!”

I stare at the door thinking of what to do.

Aha!

I listen to how loud his footsteps are, and I see his shadow approaching behind.

Now!

I jump back, through his legs.

Oh yeah, I’m getting out of here.

The other hallway is an open door to the outside.

Here we go!

*CRUCK, CRASH*

Lumberjack Guy: “Ahhhh…. My fucking arm…”

Lumberjack Guy has fallen.

You know what.

All my fear turns to anger here.

He is laying on the ground, with his arm almost 180 degrees farther backward than it should have been.

Lumberjack Guy: “Aww fuck, the chicken probably got away too.”

He is still laying on the ground, I approach behind.

This is what you get, you bitch!

This guy was not expecting this.

I peck him right in the eye.

Lumberjack Guy howls in pain.

He tries to sit up, but he can’t.

Peck.

The other eye goes.

In a blind rage, I peck them repeatedly, again and again.

Until I move to the neck.

I snag the skin on my beak, and I rip as hard as I can.

My anger weakens until I grow calm again.

Oh my god, what did I just do!?

SYSTEM ALERT

Killed one level 2 human. (adult, male, farmer)

10 XP gained.

10/.15 *level up* *level up* *level up* *level up* *level up* *level up* *level up* *level up* *level up* *level up* *level up* *level up* *level up* *level up* *level up*

My head blares with messages.

SYSTEM ALERT

Huh?!

I faint.
