18 BUSKERPHOBIA --------------- 7 ..a fiction story with true elements written by your favourite novelist : Zinkfloid/ENERGY chapter I: The beginning... The courier strolls along the path, which is his last part to overcome before he will be able to reach Hobbit. He is happy that he had left the huge mountain ranges behind him and he admitts to the publics opinion that those mountain ranges are deadly to overcome and that they ruin your health and body. In front of him a dark and for his taste a very mystic forest appears. Snow covers the path he strolls along and dusk comes up. The forest comes nearer and nearer and the courier began to breath very loudly. He felt awful and tired. It is two days ago since he ate something and his hourdled and wounded knee burnt like purgatory. Just 50 metres left. In his right pocket is a petition for the chief of Hobbit. 71 His steps are getting slower and suddenly he feels a terrible pain burning down his whole right leg. The pain was so breathtaking that he had to sit down on the ground. He gazed up to the sky. His throat felt raw and dry. `Oh that pain makes me sick` he thought while regarding a wild duck snarring loudly before swinging into the forest. That was the last action for him on this day. Without producing any noice, he felt backwards in a deep coma. `This is my end !!!` chapter II: The forest...... It was not one of those usual forests as they are in almost every country. No, you are not able to create such a forest even in your wildest dreams. The forest is in no way enchanting or something similar. You are not able to pervede the forest although there were some `hidden paths` leading into its heart. Flashing eyes are chasing the courier. A birdsong shatters the still. In the dark depths of the forest the unknown eyes are beckoning the courier who lies on the ground. Now the forest`s quire breaks and an old man appears with direction to the courier. As he reached him, he touched the courier very carefully. 71 chapter III: the old man..... He is the king of the forest. He is the almighty ruler of all that life forms being existent in this mystic part of the world. He is the emperor of the `hidden paths`. He is the only one who knows all of them. He is the only one who knows all the accesses to the heart of the forest. This is his kingdom and here he prepares for his last challenge. Here he prepares to seek out and to take revenge. He is sure that the time will come for him to get back his crown and to cut down his greatest foe. Those are the only things which are important ! When the time for judgement has come, he will be strong to fullfil his deed. He will have the power to make it all end. chapter IV: the hidden paths...... The hidden paths lead into the forest. Exept the old man, nobody was ever able to enter the forest. Those who have tried to enter the forest where either killed or they felt fear and ran away. In the forest the paths meet themselves in the centre where all the power of the old man seems to grow. People blame it on evil that all the true men who entered the forest have been killed. But it is the old man who has the power to forsee and who took revenge on all the true men. 71 On the hidden paths - no light to show the way. How could that ever be his home ? Through the darkness you could only see a giant shadow hanging like a deadly cloud over the forest and over its hidden paths. (..to be continued in the next issue of SUICID !!! ) Zinkfloid/ENERGY
