Seven Souls
Are you holding tight?
Kind of, I don愒 think I can take it much longer
It愀 too much weight for this branch we should balance the weight.
Try to move to your right.
I can愒
Is your cell phone in your pocket?
I think so
Swing your body, if you can hold on to the branch below, you惻l be able to get it.
I惻l fall if I try, damn it
You扉e got to try because we don愒 have another option.
I told you I can愒
I am trying to help you kid,
It is just a couple of feet.
Don愒 stress me out damn it.
There you go kid
Almost there.
***
Up here
Here!
Help me please, help me! please
I wish I could
I扉e been here since last week and my cell phone has no range or battery
My car also flew, and I was lucky enough to land in this blessed cave
Apart from having space for shade and sleep, I even had a nest with fresh eggs
By the way, I am sorry about your father
He was not my father, he was my driving instructor.
Don愒 worry about the tree, it won愒 break, it愀 got strong roots.
What is your name kid?
You have to help me, you can愒 let me die.
The only thing we can do is hold on tight and wait for someone to see us
There has to be something you can do damn it
Come on, don愒 take it that way, at least you愉e still alive.
I悲 rather have died without knowing it, I悲 be resting in peace instead of suffering
Believe me, I understand your distress
Tell me your name and I惻l carve it next to mine in the cavern, our encounter will leave a trace forever.
Don愒 leave me to die, I惴 only 19 years old.
There愀 nothing I can do
There has to be something, help me please.
I can愒 think of anything.
Tie your clothes into a rope and throw it, we are close enough, throw it!
I wouldn愒 work, it is torn
You扉e got water, give me a Little please.
It愀 urine mixed with a bit of rain water.
Truly, it愀 not worth giving you any.
Son of a ***, if you愉e not sharing it why are you drinking in front of me, ***
I thought you were sleeping.
Sleeping here?
Damn you!
The world ends here for you
Accpet it!
For your information I will get up there and drink all your water.
and I am gonna take a pee in your mouth, ***
Hide, hide.
M-B-L
My name is Miguel Baena Lechuga and I am 19 years old.
What have you done ***?
I got it dude.
Don愒 move or I惻l throw stones at you.
Listen, about taking a pee in your mouth I was just kidding
You should have fallen instead of the tree, son of a ***
What?
Either you let go or I will help you throwing stones.
I will just stand still ok?
But, Why do you want to kill me?
I have a good reason.
What reason can you have?
Listen buddy, tell me, tell me the reason and I will jump.
My arms won愒 take it much longer
But stop throwing stones at me for God愀 sake.
It愀 going to sound strange to you, but did more to me.
I don愒 care, tell me.
You see, there is a triangle shaped inscription engraved on the cavern wall.
It愀 written in an ancient language
And it says that in order to leave the cavern
Seven dying souls would have to give me consent to engrave their epitaph on the rock
I thought it was stupid the first time I read it
But that same night a heartbreaking scream woke me up
I couldn愒 believe it
There was a couple holding on to the tree
The text on the wall came to my mind when I saw them
I talked to them for a while
And easily convinced them to tell me their initials
They did not take long to fall
A few days later a rock band
They thought it was cool that their souls would be taken away
I had five souls already
The sixth was a writer
He was with a hitch-hiker that fell before he could even open his mouth
You are the seventh soul
Once you are gone I惻l have got it
Do you really believe that *** about the souls?
Of course I believe it.
It is incredible enough that we have survived an accident like this
What if we haven愒 survived?
What if we are in the purgatory?
Enough with philosophy
Jump
I know what you are up to dude
The tree was your web and you are a spider
Jump
You are the worst person I扉e ever met in my life
