"WHY WON'T YOU DIE?!" (Anna)
Anna shouted while Greyson was carrying her over his shoulder, running at a full sprint, while Anna threw explosive concoctions at the Giant spider chasing them. Its limbs moved erratically as it leaped to the side, avoiding the bursts of flame aimed at it.
Boom Boom Boom
"Fuck spiders fuck spiders nope this whole forest is a nope can we burn it down?" (Greyson)
"NO!" (Anna)
Anna kept tossing anything at the large spider before pulling the loaded shotgun from her inventory and aiming at the giant beast chasing after them.
Bang
Anna's shot missed the main body of the large spider but blew off one of its legs as it hissed and screamed in pain.
"HAHA SUCK ON THAT YOU GIANT PEACE OF SHIT!" (Anna)
Anna held her middle finger at the spider, her shotgun returned to storage as Greyson kept running. Anna lifted the compass to look at where they were headed.
"GREYSON, TO YOUR LEFT A LITTLE MORE. YOU'RE TRYING TO GO THE WRONG WAY." (Anna)
"I think the only wrong way is back to the spider, don't you think?" (Greyson)
Anna, no longer yelling, spoke.
"I don't think it's going to keep following us." (Anna)
"Well, I'm not testing our luck. Also, why did you have to say that out loud? That is a notorious jinx." (Greyson)
Anna looked at the fading form of the spider, seeing it bend down and start eating its severed limb.
"No, I think we are good." (Anna)
"Oh, and why do you say that?" (Greyson)
"It's currently eating its severed limb." (Anna)
Greyson gagged but kept running.
"You could have said that I don't want to know, and that is something I didn't want to know or picture." (Greyson)
"Point taken." (Anna)
Greyson started to slow as adrenaline fled his body. When they could no longer spot the spider. Greyson sat Anna down and plopped onto the ground, gasping for air.
"fuck spiders." (Greyson)
"I will be having nightmares about spiders for weeks." (Anna)
Anna shivered, feeling like minuscule bugs were crawling all over her skin.
"No kidding. Seriously, what did that weird system thingy do to the entire ecosystem here?" (Greyson)
Anna sat beside Greyson, pulling out some of her rations from the inventory. Also known as jerky.
"Tariaki?" (Greyson)
Greyson tilted his eyes down to look at the jerky in Anna's hand as Anna handed him a piece.
"hickory smoked." (Anna)
"Yoink." (Greyson)
Greyson took the piece she handed him and started chewing it before speaking.
"So what other updates were there besides having the invitory like any video game as we had hoped for after the update?" (Greyson)
Anna chewed on her jerky as she mentally brought up all the updates.
[Update complete]
[Congratulations, you have unlocked access to a status screen.]
"Well, it's exactly like an RPG or DnD games. It says we have a status screen, although I don't understand what it means." (Anna)
"So what I just have to think status then it will..." (Greyson)
Greyson stopped talking, no longer focusing on Anna as he seemed distracted.
"Greyson? What is it?" (Anna)
Shaking himself out of it, Greyson looked at Anna.
"Turns out you are right. You have to command it to show your status." (Greyson)
"Oh, okay, let me give it a try." (Anna)
[Status
Class: None
Level: One
Evolution: Stage one]
[Gain a class to have access to traits and stats.]
"Well that sucks." (Anna)
Frowned before ripping another piece of jerky off of what she was eating.
"What?" (Greyson)
"I need a class to gain traits and see my stats." (Anna)
"Huh? How do we do that?" (Greyson)
"Haven't got that far, but we should keep moving." (Anna)
