I had been rotting in my cell for a couple weeks now. Just sitting there, scared and alone, waiting for someone to help me. I had ended up here the same day I had ran away from home. Looking back on it now, I regret my decision, I had left for a pretty silly reason too, I left so I didn't have to go to school.
Two weeks ago
I had made sure to wake up before my Mom. It would've been pretty hard to run away if she was awake. I managed to sneak out of the house quietly, not making any sound at all. After I got out of the house I decided to take one last look at my home, a little hut in the middle of Bamboo forest. As I made my way to the road I had made my decision, I'd go to the Spinach Wastes! My Mom would check Satan City first so it would be a good idea to hide where she would never look. It's also a lot easier to hide in the wastes, there are caves to hide in. Also I heard tales of bandits and thugs living in the wastes, "That's probably just tall tales to scare kids anyways!" I thought to myself. Oh how much I was wrong..
After a few hours of walking I had finally made it to the Spinach Wastes! There wasn't much going on in the Wastes so I decided to find a place to live. After looking around for awhile I had finally found a cave that was fairly big. At noon I had ended up getting really hungry so I hunted some snakes to eat. I didn't really like it so I went hungry. I'm going to skip to when the story actually got interesting.
I had heard the crash at sundown. It was starting to rain at about this time, but I decided to go out and check it anyway. The crater was massive! Whatever had crashed had taken out an entire Mountain! I slid down the crater to find one of those fancy Space Pods that I've seen on TV. It was still smoking from when it first crashed. It had opened with more smoke billowing out of the Space Pod. I got nervous so I scrambled back up to the edge. I had heard grunting as someone dragged themselves up the steep crater. When the man had climbed to the top of the crater, his face was illuminated in the darkness by a sudden crash of lightning! What I saw in that brief flash was unlike anything I've ever seen before. A pale face, covered in cuts scrapes and bruises, pointy ears the stuck out like a sore thumb, and a light green head of hair. The man let out one last grunt and passed out. After helping the man to the cave I bandaged his wounds and started a fire to keep us warm. Living in the forest sure had prepared me for the wilderness. I eventually fell asleep after a few minutes.
I was suddenly awoken feeling a hand cupped over my mouth. There was a man who matched the exact description of a bandit, raggedy clothing, greasy hair, and pretty bad breath and dental hygiene. He whispered, "You're coming with me kid." he had someone else with him, who fired off a ki blast right in the pointy eared strangers face. I tried to scream but the man was still covering my mouth. He carried me the whole way to their hideout, from what I could see in the darkness, there looked like there was about twenty to thirty bandits. And that's how I ended up here.
They had told me yesterday, "We've been tracking ever since you entered the waste, we thought you might have some valuables on ye, but now that it's very clear you're just a dumb kid. We're just gonna kill you tomorrow!" I knew my time was running out. I had to figure out something! Suddenly, I hard a loud crash and a scream from outside. Then guns started firing, and more screaming. And then silence... Suddenly the door to the jail was knocked right off it's hinges and a Bandit went flying through the opening. And then, someone I never thought I would see again walked through.
I didn't think that the boy who bandaged my wounds a few weeks ago would be here. I thought he must've been scared and left. But there he was standing in a cell, looking at me with amazement. "This is where I should say a really cool line like heroes do!" I thought to myself. "uh.. Come with me." I said, "Nailed it!" I thought to myself. I ripped off the door cell and we walked outside, into the blistering hot wastes. As we reach the exit to the Bandits base, I look at all the carnage I caused.
There were about thirty or so bandits strewn across the base, Knocked Out and severely injured. There were some with limbs that I didn't know could contort into such a weird shape! It was amazing, he wasn't even injured! Then suddenly, as we started walking out a man appeared, he was much bigger and stronger looking than the pointy eared stranger. He yelled out "Were you the one who did this to all of my men?! I'll kill you!" The pale stranger motioned for me to stand back. "You are going to take him on all by yourself?" He nodded and stepped forward.
"I might have to use Ki Overcharge for this fight.." I said out loud by accident. "You have a special technique eh? hehheh.. This will be an easy fight." Oh well. I powered up, unleashing my full power, my arms and legs began to glow with a blue aura and I stepped closer. The man who was very confident at first became terrified. In desperation, he threw a punch but I caught it and crushed his fist. He screamed, and I punched him right in his stomach, he spit up blood and fell to the sandy ground. "This is a really cool moment, I need to say an awesome line again!" I thought to myself.
The stranger said another really dumb line.. "And that's what you get for not fighting on the side of justice!" After trying to cover up my laugh as a cough, he turned to me. "Where do you live? I should get you home to your family." After telling him that I live in a hut in the Bamboo forest he told me to hop on his back. I complied, and something I've never done before happened. We flew, it was crazy! That was the most free I had ever felt in weeks!
After flying around we found my house. When we landed he said, "Alright kid, you should go tell your family you are alright." "But what about yo-" I turned around as I said it, to find that he was already gone. "I have to repay him." I thought to myself. After a long night of festivities for my return, I had taken my Father's sword and placed it outside near the front of the house. In the morning, it was gone.
