Serpemt Saga
Ch. 1 -Rediscovered-

Scourge's Pov.
Traveling throught the jungle to get to the prison I was doomed to live in, it annoys me with the people speaking of a myth of monsters that can swallow a elephant whole, and the gaurds beating the prisoners still. "Welcome to your worst nightmare...hope ya live Hahaha!" the gaurd laughed at us as we stepped out of the vehicle and into our unfortunate home.

That was three months ago for me, I heard that three prisoners broke out of this place but the weird part, the gaurds never gave chase...I was confused as to why,same with the other prisoners. Breakfast was the same as always...I was sitting with a Tiger who calls himself Claw, a Wolf named Butch, a Doe named Hope...don't ask me how she ended up here in prison,...and finally a cat who's name I don't know...cause he and I do not get along well.

"Morning guys...how is everything coming?" I asked looking to the four, and they gave me a note that said 'Meet us at the west gate tonight at midnight' after reading it I nodded and destroied the note. Spending the day like always, I finally got back to my room and packed a few things including a knife. around 11:50 pm I waas hiding at the gate waiting for the others, we then removed the bricks and made our way out of the prison undiscovered. "Freedom!" yelled Butch as we ran away from that place only to have another, a beast came out and killed the cat, and we outta instincts split appart.

I could hear the screams of the others, but I kept on running knowing that I could be next if I stopped. I ran till the unexpected happened, the ground under my feet collapsed and I came falling down, landing on my leg wrong and it hurt really bad though I only whimpered cause anything out here could possibly want hedgehog for dinner. 'Ow...I think its broken...' I thought to myself as I had tried to stand on my wounded leg to no avail. I sat there waiting for the pain to dull down to check, then I heard something coming closer, I began to grow nervous with the fact that one- my leg was out of commission and two- that same leg was bleeding good along with my arm, and who know what that has brought here.

"So this is what I have been smelling for the last six minutes...interesting" a deep calm voice spoke, I turned around really nervous and looked up really scared, there standing near me was a beast I heard rumros bout, an actual Naga...'oh chaos!' was the only thought going through my mind with this beast here. He leaned down and looked at me more closely "young I see...a broken leg..." the Black n' Teal colored Naga picked me up and Chuckled when I accidentally squeeked out of shock of getting picked up "Do not worry youngin your safe...lets get you over to the lake and clean this up..." he said as he moved off, going deeper into the jungle.

I must have fallen asleep cause I woke to a cool cloth being gently used on my leg and arms, I looked over and noticed that naga his tail coiled around under me and I noticed my leg just looked terrible. I guess the landing was worse than I thought...must have landed on a sharp object...though for some reason I didn't feel any pain coming from it anymore. Then the naga spoke "I see your finally up...I was thinking you wouldn't wake..." he started and I couldn't help but touch my broken leg wondering why its not hurting "...your leg is beyond healing...so I used the jucies from a hurb and numb out the pain...but walking is no longer available to you..."

I felt down at the thought of not being able to move freely anymore "then...why did you bother to save me?...I know a bad leg out here would mean the death of me..." I asked nervously. The naga for some reason smiled gently "well your colors a unique to us...they help you blend really well, and as for a bad leg we can help with that" he then uncoiled his tail and instinctively I clung to this tail cause falling off was not in my agenda, and he departed to a small cave, that lead into a larger place with countless nagas in it.

"Who is the small furry Lord Mephiles?" a Naga that looked a lot like Shadow only his left eye was patched from a recent fight asked the naga I was sitting on. Mephiles looked to me then to the other naga "my new guest in our home Shadow...and he will be staying with us weather you like it or not..." he replied to the other and what made me nervous was the look not from Shadow but a pur red naga, she looked ready to kill at any moment. I looked back to Mephiles after he spoke to me "so do you have a name fledgling?" I then nodded nervously and replied to his question "Scourge...Scourge the hedgehog..."
