Now Elara realized that she was alone in the forest. There were only two options for him, surviving until a miracle came to his rescue or trying to get out of the forest with his limited circumstances.
Elara took a deep breath. He has nothing to offer to get out of the forest alive. Let alone martial skills to defend life from the attacks of wild animals or obstacles in the field that he will pass, even the way he does not have. Elara doesn't know where south, west or north is. Should Elara come out of the forest with her own instinct?
However, if Elara stayed here without any effort, she was afraid she would regret it. At least, if later he died on the way to find a way out of the labyrinth of the forest, he had tried and tried rather than he just stayed here waiting for the death that might be able to pick him up too at any time.
"Shane, I'm leaving this place. I will try to take care of myself for you, so will your message before leaving yesterday?" Elara took a deep breath. "Well, I hope you'll find me someday." Deep inside Elara, she still hopes that Shane is alive and somewhere out of nowhere. Shane never intended to leave him but circumstances that made Shane go somewhere and make him alone in the forest as it is today.
Reckless, Elara starts wearing Shane's mountain bag left in her tent. He had also rolled up the tent and was ready to leave from there. Before actually leaving the place Elara took the time to fill the water stock for her supplies.
Although actually Elara was afraid to return to the spring near the river where Elara had found many water worms, she said, but the girl seemed to be numb and lost in amusement due to her current miserable state.
Elara galloped out of the forest that she had been in for nine days. He's not strong if he has to stay there tonight alone. At least today he should try to save himself by relying on himself without Shane or anyone else.
...***...
It had been half a day for Elara to walk around in the same forest. The journey is not easy. Elara was able to estimate it because it was indeed unusual in a world like this. The girl cried without tears.
Elara never thought she would get lost in the forest, she was even afraid to imagine it. However, the truth is that he is now completely alone in a place like this. A place that has absolutely no room to get out. Even sunlight is not visible during the day. It was dark in a room without lights.
"Do I have to spend the night here?" inner Elara. He decided to put up a tent in a place that was a bit quiet from the trees. Plugging the pegs plus the slightly wet ones. It seems, he is no longer strong down the forest that does not show a way out.
It felt like even Elara was just circling in the same place, wasting her energy, as if she had not moved from her original place because everything seemed the same.
Do not ask the sound of wild animals and howls are earthy, obviously it is very clear that makes Elara more horrified and shudder on her own. This is more scary than the horror movies he often watches.
Elara felt very hungry, she decided to eat the remaining wild fruits not enough from the last time Shane searched for their food stock.
Gradually, Elara began to fall asleep in the tent that she had returned to install. Tiredness makes him feel good. Elara was very hopeful when she woke up later she was already in her residence.
The next day, Elara felt very weak. He looked at the wound on his stomach that was worse than the wound on the rest of his body.
"When a few days ago the wound had started to dry up, but because yesterday I was moving a lot, it got wet again." Elara complained, it felt like she had moved too much to impact on her wound.
Elara saw the stock of her food for today and only two sweet potatoes remained so she should be able to stick with that alone today.
"Oh my God, will I eventually die in this forest?"
Elara started cooking her sweet potato for breakfast and lunch today.
After breakfast Elara decided to leave the place because she did not want to waste any more time. He must be out of the forest right now.
Elara decides to make a flag from Shane's shirt that she ripped off. The color of the fabric is red, Elara really hopes this can help her. He put the flag on a tree he found.
Elara returned to the forest while occasionally slashing the bush she had broken through. When his eyes accidentally saw the blazing sun that dazzled Elara sure if now he began to be in a minimal area of trees.
Elara planted her flag in an area unprotected by trees, hoping a helicopter would pass by to rescue her.
Unfortunately, until late afternoon Elara's hopes did not materialize. He had to put the tent back there. However, not yet fully installed the tent, Elara had fainted and unconscious.
...****...
Elara felt that her head was very painful, her eyelids were difficult to open as if they had been hit by a lot of heavy things.
"Ela?"
Elara heard her name called, this felt impossible because she knew the owner of the voice.
"Ela? Are you conscious?"
"Thank God, Ela. I'll call the doctor, just a minute!"
Elara still could not widen her eyelids, but she heard the sound of hurried footsteps around her.
"K-Kyle ..." - Elara.
"Yes, yes, it's me. You remembered me? Oh, my God, Ela .. I was so worried about you and now I'm really relieved."
Kyle's voice sounded hoarse, it seemed like the man was crying there.
"See, I'm calling the doctor to check on you."
Elara did not say anymore, she smiled wryly, she was sure if now she was dreaming where she had heard Kyle's voice worrying about her.
"Perhaps before I die, I am allowed to dream of people close to me during my life in the world" said Elara.
Before long, the sound of another step was heard in Elara's ear.
"Doctor, Elara just regained consciousness a moment ago." Looks like Kyle was talking to someone he called a doctor.
"I'll check and check his vital organs immediately."
"All right, thank you doctor."
Now Elara felt if she was really being examined using a stethoscope. Then her eyelids opened left and right and were dysentery.
"Miss Elara? Can you hear me?"
"Y-yeah," said Elara. Again he tried to open his eyes, trying as much as possible because he wanted to see his existence.
"Well, then, slow down." The doctor gave instructions as Elara began to blink both eyes, looking relieved and looking at Elara with sadness later.
"Thank God you can be saved. Mr. Kyle has already contacted your family and they are heading to this Hospital right now."
"So I'm really alive?" elara muttered more to ask herself.
And the doctor actually spoke to the girl.
"Yes, Miss. You were saved by a SAR team that was looking for someone who was declared missing in the forest."
Elara breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out that this was not the realm before death, but that she was really still in the world. He was given a chance to live and survive.
"Have the missing persons sought been found?" elara asked the doctor who handled it.
The doctor frowned for a moment at Elara's question. But then he answered too.
"undiscovered. They found you in the same forest."
Elara was a little overwhelmed to hear it, surely the missing person would have difficulty living in the forest just as it seemed for a few days there.
"After this we will continue the treatment for you, Miss. Because it looks like there are some internal organs that have been injured."
Elara nodded to the doctor. He was indeed relieved because he finally survived the creepy forest. However, there are things that still feel stuck in the heart of the girl. Shane's departure that he has not yet got the answer to.
