DRABBLE STORY ARC #1: UNTIL LUCK RUNS OUT
Unusual Allies
A chapter of a ‘choose your own’ story — Drabble edition!
This is a continuation of You Are Dead, a Choose Your Own Adventure Story — Drabble Edition started by Bradan Writes Stories. Find out how to contribute here, or return to the previous chapter: “Defying the Assassin”, “Innocent, With Allies Like That”, or “Outrunning the Assassin”.
You hand the assassin the figurine, hoping you are not misplacing your trust… again.
The assassin sighs and holds the figurine up.
“With this, I can finally get out of this life. Thanks,” he says, “You probably can’t understand, but I’m fed up with all that death.”
His statement is so unexpected that you feel speechless.
“Believe me, I can,” you manage to say.
He nods and looks over his shoulder again.
“Stay hidden until we are gone. There are magical portals on the mountaintop and in the forest.”
The assassin throws you a small bottle.
“Drink this.”
You decide to…
- drink the potion and continue your hike up the mountain (click here).
- drink the potion and try your luck in the forest (click here).
- don’t drink the potion and bandage your legs (click here).
