Bigfoot
The team of scientists decided that there is no use in wandering why or how they got here when they should be finding land and shelter, so they searched for shores. After about an hour of swimming towards a shore they finally hit land. They kissed the ground the fell on. One of them noticed ginormous foot prints. They must have been five times larger than humans. They all had simultaneous thoughts of bigfoot, so they decided to follow the foot prints in search of shelter or a food supply.
They walked and walked, keeping with Bigfoot's trail, as they found a banana tree on the shore. They all praised Bigfoot. "Thank you Bigfoot!" they said, "for leading us to this food!" They kept walking down the beach with the Bigfoot tracks, however it started to rain. They looked for Bigfoot's tracks to seek shelter but there were no more tracks, so they got drenched and one of them caught a cold.
The next few months followed a pattern of them finding food and water by following bigfoot's tracks and them praising Bigfoot, however once the tracks stopped and there was nothing there for them, they cursed Bigfoot. Eventually there he was, eating some berries out of a bush.
"Bigfoot!" they all cried out. This startled Bigfoot. "Why have your tracks stopped when we needed them most? Why do you lead us to somethings but when we need you the most you weren't there?" Bigfoot walked to the group of scientists, and kneeled. he opened his bearded mouth and said
"EAUUGHCH"
This story speaks to me, as if I were there with those scientists. I too dream of the patriarchy that is Bigfoot, whom also is our savior. I believe that you wrote this story from personal experience with Bigfoot, making this rather easier to understand from both your perspective, and my own.
ReplyDeleteOne thing that you could have done better with is do something more with the scientist that caught a cold, extra character development, because character development does not equate to filler. At all.
