Embryonic Life

'It's been a few days since my Father accepted going to the mountains.'

Looking from a far, lush green mountains could be seen, it was so big that even from a far he could see its gigantum height.

The peak couldn't be seen by naked eyes, as white clouds drifted from the sky, Wolfern held the banana on his right hand.

His big eyes gazing from a far.

His face thoughtful as his left hand finger softly poke the corner of his lips, a thought suddenly crossed his mind.

As the sun glared on the ground, three kids could be seen roasting chicken legs on the fire.

While roasting, a big kid what seems to be the leader of the trio Immediately ripped three pieces of banana leaf to make plates.

Giving the two banana leaf to his companion, his lips opened as if to say some words but before he could say anything.

The bush behind them suddenly sounded, it swayed strongly with the wind.

The trio became alert their gaze staring intently at the bush.

Suddenly a huge shadow went past them, it was fast as it made its way to the roasting chicken.

The leader of the trio got alerted his eyes full of anger as he shouted, "its the mud thief! Stop right there!"

This kid's name was Ethan, mike, and ashel.

Ethan the big kid immediately became angry as he sees the mud thief not stopping on its action.

He immediately run towards him.

Although they were just a few meters on the chicken. The mud thief arrived fast and got the chicken with his hands.

The trio Immediately surrounded him, seeing the situation becoming dire, 'the mud thief' peeled some mud on his body, ready to throw his gaze sharp as everything came to a stand still.

"Mud thief! It's you again! You always steals our chicken!" Ashel shouted, holding a stick on her hand her eyes stared fiercely at the mud thief.

Mike, hands clenched tightly holding a hard stone he also shouted saying, "Mud thief, this time you wont get away from your crimes!"

Ethan the big kid just watched the mud thief, having the same height as the mud thief, he was thinking who it was who dared to get their chicken everytime they cooked it!

Although they changed their hidden base many times, everytime they cook a chicken in different location this mud thief would suddenly show up, is this mud thief a dog?!

It started a month ago, while they were cooking a chicken beside the river, it was relatively safe as it was near the villages perimeter.

But a kid discovered them by chance although he was the same aged as them they didn't trust him so they changed their hidden base.

After that this mud thief, suddenly showed up, they didn't think about the first chicken but the second, third and fourth makes them angry at this person.

Initially they thought that kid was the mud thief but after interrogating him they didn't find anything unusual but they were still highly suspicious that's why they secretly practiced how they can catch this thief!

At this point the mud thief eyes showed a hint of panicked, although his face couldn't be seen his body shivered slightly giving a vibe of an anxious bird being trapped.

Ethan the big kid make a cruel smile, "Mud thief! Show us your face or... we will give you a hard beating you will never forget!"

Hearing his words the mud thief suddenly laugh his body moves doing a zigzag motion.

Mike suddenly throw the stone in his hand, it was fast that when it came in front of the mud thief he narrowly dodged it.

Ethan the big kid, shouted with anger his hand holding a small stick, "Stop right there mud thief!!"

But the mud thief just went past him his hand throwing mud in ashel direction who was already running in front.

Ethan, mike and Ashel was shocked as the mud thief went into the bush disappearing on their sight.

"This..." Mike was dumbfounded, his head turning on his palm.

Ashel cried out as Ethan consoled her, "Don't worry about the chicken I will get you some when we got home."

"But... hic.. but.. that's our chicken!" Ashel cried out her tears flowing down on her face.

....

In a slightly secluded part of the forest, the mud thief sighed with relief, his eyes shining as he looked at the hot chicken on his muddy hand.

Although it was hot, but because of the mud, he could only feel warmth coursing through him.

His mouth watering with the thought of how tasty does this new chicken he steals?

After eating the entire chicken, the mud thief sneakily arrived at the nearby river using his hands to scoop the water he immediately washed his face.

Showing a young face of an eight year old boy a smile was etched on his face, his dark eyes with the hint of blue could be seen, having a dark hair he was Wolfern!

With his innocent smile he started stroding forward towards his home.

But suddenly he froze, the smile on his face twitching as three kids was staring in front of him with dumbfounded expression.

Ethans body trembled as the stick on his hand fall to the ground.

"It's you!" The trio simultaneously shouted.

Wolfern gave them an Innocent face. As he Immediately escaped.
