ESCAPE

Chapter 1

"Erghh.... My head.. Wait.. Where am I?"

   Nicholas opened his eyes. He can't move.

   "Why I've been tied at this old tree in this freaky room?"

   He can't remember anything. What happened to him actually? Suddenly, he heard a growl from outside.

   "Check out the human, idiot. He may run away."

   "Chill.. I tied him really hard. He'll never get away."

  Then, there's a sound of something being knocked.

   "Oww.. What's that for?"

   "For being so stupid. Go check the human now!"

   When Nicholas heard footstep coming to the room, he acts like he never woke up.

   The footstep is nearer to Nicholas until he know, that creature is in front of him."

   " See! I told you so!"

   That creature take a step out from the room. Nicholas tries to peek. Then, he saw... A gigantic monster with one horn at his left side of head. His back fulls of hair and he's holding a giant steel hammer.

   "What is that freaking hideous freak?"

   Nicholas accidentally said that out loud and the monster turn around. Nicholas fakely pass out. Luckily, because of the monster's dumbness, he was saved.

   "Pheww... I need to get out from here." he said after the monster went out.

   He tries to break free but it's impossible. It's too strong. Suddenly something crawl onto his body. They're... Eyeballs with 10 hairy legs.

   "Hey, stop. It tickles! Hahahaa."

   Nicholas can't stop giggling.. He can't control his voice.

   "That human!!"

   By it's angry growl, Nicholas know, that is not the dumb monster but the other one.

   Nicholas start to be panic. Will he be eaten?

   "Psst... Human." He turn to look at his left. There's a goblin head coming out from the tree. He didn't say a word.

   "Relax, human." 

   Even Nicholas doesn't understand anything, but he just obeyed. He tries to relax. Without knowing anything, he's been pulled into the tree.

   "Where's that human?!?!" That monster growl madly after he didn't see any sign of Nicholas.

    Meanwhile...

In the tree, Nicholas just bumped his head onto the ground.

   "Ops.. Sorry, human." The goblin said together.

   Nicholas just make an 'okay' sign with his hand. He rubs the back of his head.

   "You shouldn't be here, human." The voice came from the eldest goblin.

   He walk toward Nicholas. "This isn't your place. What are you doing here?"

   Nicholas scratches his head. "Well... Your peo- I mean.. goblins pull me in--"

   "I mean, what are you doing in this world?"

   Nicholas looked confuse.. "I don't understand."

   "This is another part of Earth where creatures like us live. Human shouldn't be here. Why are you here?"

   The goblin explain.
