Snippet #2675824

As he walked down the river sill calling for help, hoping somebody, anybody would hear him he began to lose hope. What if there was no one else here? What if he was alone, and never finds a way back home? What if he was stuck like this, in this strange body forever? These were not good thoughts.But regardless he had to keep moving, standing here doing nothing was not going to solve anything.

He stopped for a moment, his new tail swished back and forth in the silence. He sighed in silence. It didn't seem like there was anyone here, and it seemed like he had walked quiet a distance, though oddly enough the boy was not physically exhausted. this di dnot surprise Collin much, a horse had far more stamina than a man after all. No it was the seeming pointlessness of what he was doing that was starting to get on his nerves. This whole ordeal was beginning to grate on the boy, and he suddenly wished that whatever force had whisked him away here and twisted his body into what it was now had the decency to leave him a pack of smokes or a nice cool beverage to take the edge off. No instead all he received was a bow and arrow.

Just as he was trying to think of a new course of action he noticed a what looked like a girl not to far up the river. He was astonished to see another person her just as he was giving up hope and galloped towards her direction. It was only as he was heading towards her that he realized he'd soon be forced into talking to this girl. Talking, with a stranger. Not something he was good at.

When Collin had reached the girl he paused for a moment trying to think of what to say and after a few seconds opened his mouth to speak, only for the girl to end up falling onto her backside. What was he thinking running up to her like that? The girl obviosly wasn't used to seeing a centaur, then again Collin wasn't exactly used to being one. "Oh uh no don't apologize it was um my fault. I didn't mean to startle you or anything. My name's uh Collin." He looked down at himself and hunched over slightly to more comfortably reach the girls height, and offered her a hand up. "I don't normally look like this by the way. You wouldn't happen to know where I am right now would you? Do you have any idea what's going on, I'm awfully confused."
