Well this is awkward
When I woke up I decided not to open my eyes, because if I did, than that ment I would have to face everything that happened yesterday.
Once I do decide to opened my eyes I stare strait up into the trees above me.
Wait. Trees? Wasn't there some kind of tent last night? Am I losing my shit? There was a tent right? There had to be! I remember going to sleep in one.
Why does it matter if there was a tent? I guess it doesn't matter that much. Sitting up to see where I am, I didn't really get to see it much in the dark last night. The fire from last night has long gone out, but what was weird was that there was no evidence of a fire being there at all, no sticks or the rocks that I know for a fact I collected. Everything from last night had just... disappeared. Was it a dream? Had I just dreamed that I had met the bloodstained child and he didn't kill me? Am I really losing my shit?
"Ow!" Looking behind me to figure out what had hit my head I saw him standing there staring at me. Confused I look for what he had thrown only to see an apple. Of course he decides that throwing the apple at me is better than just walking over to me and handing it, or even warning me before throwing it.
"It's good to eat" he looks down at the apple and then up to me again. "Get up we don't have time to relax, we need to leave before people find us."
Of course I'm not lucky enough that meeting him was all in my head. He's really here. I do pick the apple up though because I'm starving. Glancing at him before taking a bite just to see if he's fucking with me. He doesn't really seem like the type to do that though, he seems more the serious type of person.
As soon as I finished eating he left and I had to run after him to make sure I didn't get lost out here. He seemed to know where we're going, how I have no idea, but the thought is comforting. That or he's just an extremely confident person, I don't don't that he is.
After what felt like hours of walking through the woods we finally came to a stop by a river.
His first reaction was to take his clothes off and get in the water with the clothes. And at that point why take the clothes off? There just coming in with you anyway.
He glances up at me. "I'm washing my clothes and bathing, I suggest you do to."
"Did you have to take your clothes off? Do I?" I'd rather not take my clothes off in front of a stranger who also happens to be an assassin.
He shrugged at me. "No, I just wanted to let my skin breath for a little. The clothes will get clean either way, not as well as doing it like this but they'll still get clean"
Thank fuck. There was no way I'm getting naked around him.
The water is fucking freezing but it does feel clean. And seeing as I'm covered in dirt and other stuff, I'd rather the cold.

After that delightful little dip in the water, we, and by we I mean him, decided to keep walking along the river. I've decided I'm not going to question the person who could kill me in a second, and honestly I think that's pretty reasonable. It is nice though, if I ever need a drink I have one, and it's pretty clean.
I don't really know what my hope is following him, I guess stating alive, but I have no idea we're we're going. For all I know he doesn't know either.
"Hey uh, can we maybe take a breather, just for a minute" please for fucks sake, or my sake, I'm not particular, say yes.
He glances at me and then at the sky. Before nodding and sitting down.
Huh, I didn't think he would listen. "Uh thanks" giving him a small smile.
"Sooo are you really an assassin?" Please say no, cuz if it's a yes that probably means you have to kill me. Merlin please say your not.
Glances at me giving me a plank look "what do you think the swords are for?" I mean I guess that tracks but they could be for decoration!
"Right. Well... are you from Russia?"
"No"
"Ok well you have a Russian accent so.." how the fuck does someone who's not from Russia have a Russian accent? Holly shit is it fake, cuz that would be fuckin hilarious.
"My parents are, Russian is my first language but I wasn't born there" oh. I guess that makes sense.
He stand up and starts walking. "I think we've breathed enough, we keep going"
That's that I guess, more walking. Yay.
