Days, perhaps weeks had passed. Marvin hadn’t found a single sign of human life. It was hopelessly lost with no real direction as to where it was going. Marvin had resorted to drinking river water and hunting small animals he came across. Of course, before every meal, he would pray for the soul of his victim to find its way to the afterlife.

Currently, he sat in front of a small fire, the smoke rose most likely notifying anything in the area that he was here. That didn’t matter all too much to him though, he was a hunter, a skilled one at that, if anything dared to hunt him down it would live to regret the day.

Marvin felt a chill run down his spine as the creature or traveller as they referred to themself as towered over him. Marvin examines their body, taking notice of everything he can make out, perhaps trying to find a weak point incase he needs to attack.

“Im an exorcist or vampire hunter”

Marvin couldn’t lie even if he wanted to, his breathing stayed steady despite his body trying to force him to tremble in fear. “I do hope you’re not here out of ill will”

[There is movement in the bushes. If you strain your eyes hard enough, perhaps one can make out the silhouette of antlers in the shadows. A deer perhaps?]

Marvin quickly turns around, staring in the direction the noise had come from. He quickly pulls out a spear from behind him, pointing it in the general direction.

“Hello?” He calls out, not expecting a response. Marvin moves closer to the bushes, thats what he is finally able to faintly make out the figure that had caused the noise or at least part of it. A deer.

His shoulders fall, letting his guard down despite the odd feeling in his stomach screaming at him to run.

Marvin attempts to stay still, but as the creature continues to approach he can feel himself instinctively step back. Once again his grip tightening against his spear. This feeling was odd, typically he was the one hunting, killing things like this, but right now he couldn’t help but feel like prey.

“What are you.” He demanded answers, “Why are you here, I know you can speak.” He continued staring down the creature, feeling like if he took his eyes off of it for so much as a moment he would regret it. Without holy water, without his bible on hand, he felt slightly defenceless against this thing, hence the over compensating with his spear and stern tone.

Oh f*ck no.

Marvin is quick to tense up, taking a defensive position pointing his spear towards the creature whilst trying to keep his composure. Of course he had a few run ins with other worldly things it was in his job description, but this was something new, not to mention he was already in a strange place. He’d have to make each move carefully.

“Show yourself!” Marvin demanded, his grip tightening on his spear.

“Don’t move too hastily or I’ll kill you right here and now” It was a threat, or perhaps a better word would be a bluff.

“Great, so Im lost and not even you strange people can tell me”

Marvin grumbled, beginning to move around in hopes of finding someone or something to help him on this journey.

NO THE VIOLIN ANT

“I am sincerely sorry, he frightened me. I will keep him in my prayers”

As if to prove his point, he did a quick ‘our father’ and mumbled something regarding protecting the bugs spirit.

[hunterorthehunted]

👋

“Yes hello?”

Marvin looks around,

“Do you know where I am?”

[hunterorthehunted]

🎻🐜

Marvin without a moment of hesitation crushes the bug.

“S-sorry little guy, not an insect fella”

[hunterorthehunted]

🫵

“Me?”

Marvin, confused, points at himself furrowing his brow.

[hunterorthehunted]

👋

“Hello?”

Marvin tilts his head, he hasn’t put his dagger away nor has he let his guard down. This is all strange, but perhaps he wasn’t in danger.

The FitnessGram™ pacer test is a multistage aerobic capacity test that progressively gets more difficult as it continues. The 20 meter pacer test will begin in 30 seconds. Line up at the start. The running speed starts slowly, but gets faster each minute after you hear this signal <BEEP>. A single lap should be completed each time you hear this sound <DING>. Remember to run in a straight line and run as long as possible. The second time you fail to complete a lap before the sound, your test is over. The test will begin on the word start. On your mark, get ready, start.

Marvin stares blankly, blinking slowly as he completely zones out up until he hears the beep. Almost immediately he jolts, becoming more tense.

“Whyyy…”

[hunterorthehunted]

*pokes u with a stick*

Marvin flinches, pulling out a dagger from his waist band and pointing it in the direction of where he had been poked.

“Who’s there? Reveal yourself now.”

[hunterorthehunted]

“Excuse me?”

Marvin turned around, looking for the source of the strange sound. A person? A creature? He couldn’t tell.

[hunterorthehunted]

“Guard my life, oh Lord, from the works of the evil one. Lord Jesus, I call on Your name in this time of trouble. Because Your name is higher than any other name, I hide in You like a shelter. Keep me safe from every form of harm.”

There was a pause

“Amen”

Marvin stood from a kneel, another short pause followed before he yawned stretching his body. How many times had he repeated the same prayer, he wasn’t sure. It was a reasonable response to being in a strange place though wasn’t it?

Where even was he? He had not a single clue, thats what he was hoping to find out. So this is where his journey begins, alone in the woods with nothing to keep him company but the night sky and the warm glow his old style lantern provided.
