Chapter 8 by KalkiGoes2Hollywood KalkiGoes2Hollywood

Beg for your life? Or try to take advantage of the situation...

Get cocky

You're small, unassuming and skilled at sneaking up behind unsuspecting victims and so you take the opportunity to slink closer to the female elf who is engrossed in her task of cleaning the slain rabbit. You manage to get to within whispering distance of the stranger after ducking your miniscule body down behind a stump just to her left. From your vantage point out of her immediate line of sight you peer over the stump hiding you. She doesn't give any sign that she knows about your presence.

You need some kind of weapon to threaten this stranger with, and as you realize this you curse yourself for misusing your one reliable weapon earlier. Scanning your immediate surroundings your eyes find a decent sized chunk of earth caked stone about 5 feet to your left. Moving towards this stone would probably give you away if the elf wasn't distracted first.

Taking a short piece of driftwood near your foot in your hand you attempt to divert the woman's attention for a moment while you go for the rock. You hurl the wood at a nice arc behind the elf and it lands after a couple of seconds about 10 feet away to her right. The sudden thud and scattering of sand and pebbles startles the elf as she stops fussing with the rabbit and stands upright, her legs shoulder width apart in a ready stance.

Down on all fours, you scurry quickly to the spot where the large chunks sticks out of the soft soil. You strain for barely a moment and the weighty stone is pulled to your chest.

What's next?
