As a child, I always was told stories of how heroes would come in the nick of time, and save the world from being run over by evil. They would look handsome even after the bloodiest of battles, their battle scars and bloody noses only adding to their aura of courage, bravery and strength.
I always thought it true. I have carried this belief of heroes saving the day up to even now, as a young man. I'm 26, and I have lived in dark times. But my faith in them has never ceased, never wavered. Undoubtedly, I remained steadfast to my notions.
I couldn't be more wrong. There are no heroes coming now.
I look up to the eyes of the beast, glowering down at me. It's huge figure has blotted out the background, and I cannot see the sunlight cutting through the foliage and hitting the mossy and damp ground.
"Steady now, Viv," I say to myself. I did not want to do anything foolish. Let's just bid time now. See if there is a roll of the dice yet left. Some strange weaving of the web of fate that has spun in my favour.
I looked at the creature's feet, sinewy muscles culminating into large feet, with curved talons. 4 talons. Wicked. But beautiful. Even in an abomination, the Creator sprinkles beauty. If I were not fighting for my life now, I'd stand back and admire the lithesome creature. The perfect predator.
And something near it's feet caught my eye. A root of the oat protruded from the earth and the creature was standing above it with it's feet on either side of the root.
I had to take this chance. My only chance.
