Chapter II: Humphrey’s Escape
“I wonder if it was a good idea coming to the wastelands” sinabi Humphrey panting. Humphrey suddenly got the feeling that something was watching him, he looked behind him but there was nothing there. Then a grey lobo attacked him from behind. “Stop right there!” sinabi the red wolf. “How dare you barge into my territory like that! Have you no respect!?” “Sorry, I didn’t know this was someone else’s territory!” sinabi Humphrey. “Then, what are you doing here anyway?” sinabi the grey wolf. “You see… I was hunting with my pack. I was responsible for guarding the prey, but it managed to escape…! Now everyone is hunting me down because of that! I came here seeking refuge.” “Listen, I think I can solve your problem, follow me…” sinabi the grey wolf. “Wait, what!?” sinabi Humphrey. Not sure of the stranger’s intentions Humphrey followed him into the woods. “Wait!” sinabi Humphrey, “Why--” “By the way” sinabi the grey wolf. “What’s your name?” “It’s Humphrey but--” “Mines Candou!” “Well, your problems end here, my friend. “ sinabi Candou as they were approaching a bridge” “Just across that bridge lies the solution.” “Just a minute” sinabi Humphrey “aren’t you being too kind to someone you just met?” Look, I know how you feel . I’ve had the same experience in the past. I don’t want another lobo to go through the same suffering I did” sinabi Candou. “Oh yeah, right.” sinabi Humphrey. “You don’t trust me, do you? But I’m worried with that…” “Trust only comes with time. Keep your head up and let’s keep going. Oh and sa pamamagitan ng the way, don’t look down” sinabi Candou as Humphrey started to walk across the bridge. “Things will be quite fast. You’ll see…” What are you doing?” sinabi Candou as Humphrey clinged onto the bridge. “There’s no way I‘m crossing this thing!” sinabi Humphrey. “And why not? Are you afraid of heights?” sinabi Candou. Come on we don’t have the whole night! We do it fast and get out faster.” “See! It wasn’t that difficult was it?” sinabi Candou as they both got off the bridge. “And to think you were being a chicken back there!” “AH-HA! Looks like we found what we were looking for!…
