The forest
The Forest
Once there was a small, undiscovered island deep inside the Pacific Ocean. A small community lived upon the beach coastline of the island. Family villages divided the community. No one in the community would dare enter the deep forest that covered the center of the island. It was rumored that the forest was home to vicious savages who ate anyone who was uninvited.
Isaac was the younger brother of Martin. Their parents passed a few years after Isaac was born. Isaac, being six years younger than his brother, was Martin’s responsibility until he was old enough to take care of himself.
One day, Isaac decided that he was tired of depending on his brother for everything. He wanted independence.
'I’m sick of Martin always telling me what and what not to do! I need to leave this community; start a new life, my life,' he thought.
At night, he snuck out of his tent, lighted a torch, and headed off into the dark forest. He had heard the rumors but never believed in them. The thick forest was pitch black. His torch was the only light in the forest, and even then the giant trees still blocked off most of his sight. He started to get frightened. He could feel his hands shaking intensely. He could feel his forehead dripping with sweat.
Suddenly, he heard something move in back of him. “Who’s there?” he asked. He quickly turned and found that nothing was there. The humidity was very high. His torch was about ready to go out when suddenly he saw a small cabin house.
The house looked abandoned. He looked through a window and saw an empty room with a small mattress on the floor. He went inside the house and laid down on the mattress. He was terribly exhausted and needed to sleep.
The rays of light beamed through the window and shined on Isaac’s face. He woke up and got ready to continue exploring, when suddenly he heard a loud screech. He cautiously walked out the door, looking both sides, and slowly went back into the thick forest. Suddenly, a large net fell on
