Chapter 2 Back to the stone

Back to the stone


“Ugh, where am I?” I say when I finally wake up “What the--” I shout when I see the surroundings. My surroundings are beautiful, there's greenery wherever I look and wild animals are everywhere, I even see saber tooth tigers hunting deers. Then I can’t stand the adrenalean and the excitement of the idea I’m thinking of, I stand up. “Okay William, you just came back in time into the Stone age” I say to myself “What do I have to do? Hmm…” I observe the sun and think “Okay it’s around noon, I have to make weapons, shelter and find a way back home” I sigh “Well..It wouldn’t be that hard right?”. My dear readers, I tell you that it’s not hard but it’s super hard. With no tool I have to grab a piece of rock and punch the tree with it, which takes 3 hours to break a small tree but now I have wood! “Next step is to craft a pickaxe to mine stones! Wait no, this is not Minecraft” I say to myself “Okay plan B, I have to find caves to make my house in”. Then suddenly there’s a cave in sight, “I’ll go check it out” I think then walk up to the cave. When I look inside there’s a river flowing through the middle of the cave “Yes! This is a very good spot to make a house” I say “There’s a river too so I can use that to have an infinite source of water!”. After thinking about what I should do, I came up with an idea, “Okay, I need to gather wood to make my house” I think “Around 60 logs should be enough, and I’ll use the leaves to be my roof! But I need to have some tools first” after looking around, I find two stones that fit with my hands and are sharp. “Tools acquired!” I shout with excitement but even with tools, I’m still struggling to cut down 60 trees. After about 3 hours or so, the sky becomes dark and the moon rises while the sun sets. “Wow, what a tough day” I think “I should get back inside now”, when I’m inside the cave again I realized my new biggest problem, light. But fortunately that problem is fixed, because after I wander around blindlessly in the dark I stumble across some flints “Yes!!! Oh my god” I can finally make fire, if you don’t know you can scratch flint with steel it will make sparks, which are used to make fires. That is a HUGE discovery, I break some branches from some logs I gathered then I use my belt bucket (which is metal FYI) to create sparks and light up the branches to make a campfire. After 10 minutes I’m getting sleepy, so I just sleep next to the campfire that makes me feel warm and safe.
