Lost in the Forest - Chapter 2 She remains expectant, alert as the days go by, analyzing the few people who visit her bringing food with a slight curious look. She does not think... She thinks, observes anything that could be useful and shows her that she isn’t being stupid in creating conspiracies in her head.  Karen is now calmer, past the precious hysteria. Her swollen eyes are the only sign that she has cried enough.  But she’s smart. She can’t go back into a forest where she doesn’t know what dangers there are with just her clothes. The dirt is the least of it but being sensible, not succumbing to fear, she thinks things through better.  “[...]” The strange woman gives her the usual: rice with a piece of bread along with a glass of water. The food is simple. She assumes that at the end of the day she is still a kidnapped person, except for the facts that neither her feet or hands are tied and there is no surveillance. “[…]” Karen doesn´t say anything, she looks at her

Lost in the Forest - Chapter 8 She doesn’t know how to feel as time begins to lengthen, walking with a slight tremor of dawn stepping on her back. She is happy, she left that old house where they kept her locked up... but her mind is sending out casual alarms about her unfair situation.  She is at the mercy of the savagery of nature.   She turns around scared when she hears crickets, noises of weeds moving and a strange tinkling that she doesn’t know where it comes from. She gulps thickly cursing the fact that now she doesn’t even bring her lamp, her bag or her cell phone to check the reception signal and help to see the path.   She grits her teeth as she stumbles on a rock. She turns around unwell in front of the branches that tear the long sleeves of her heavy and rustic clothing a little. She is cold but walking diminishes much of her anxiety.   At least it’s not snowing anymore, Karen thinks bitterly, sighing in the darkness that doesn’t end.   No one will come to save

Lost in the Forest - Chapter 18 It is an elegant event, is what she notices when she begins to walk in a formal yukata in cold colors that match her light hairstyle in a fallen braid. Karen feels out of place considering her features and certain strangenesses outside the clan. Even so, she rises swallowing her discomfort to continue at her pace. It is not the first time this has happened... before, she also felt the same, although today it is heavy.  “Karen, you remember the practice, right?” Mikami is at her side with an extremely careful gesture. Just like her, she wears a yukata in typical colors of her clan with flowers matching her comb.  “Yes,” she sighs with a frown, offended by such doubt. She easily remembers all the mistreatment from that time. Karen still follows the course. There are many glances... until she reaches the main house.  She can’t help but feel like she doesn’t fit in among everyone present when she notices strong features, slightly more pearly skin, and

Lost in the Forest - Chapter 6 Karen does not count the days that have passed. She becomes obsessed with the idea of leaving as the loneliness and ignorance of her captors lengthens away from the drama that is experienced at the midpoint of this family. She carefully observes the fixations of her own guard who is so different from the previous one. She sees that they look at her with doubt, with envy and even hatred when they think she isn’t paying attention to them.  They underestimate her.  Are they perhaps military or something? She doesn’t know and that’s when she realizes exactly how ignorant she is of the job of her captors. Since when did she become so comfortable in not investigating or getting out of this place? So she can’t help but look through the dark room with some apprehension.  She was foolish when her initial plan was diverted by the distraction of teaching her language with the aim of learning more from these people, leaving shortly and finding out how she got

Sinking in the Metkayina - Chapter 1 (Y/n) was a marine biology researcher. She used to do various studies on Na’vis and periodically go out to the ocean with her colleagues to collect samples. However, when many scientists who sided with the RDA were kicked out and sent back to Earth... she was left alone as an oceanographer, with no one to accompany her to the open seas anymore.  It would have been nice if Jake had more allies who sympathized with him, but (Y/n) swallowed her tears. Fortunately, there were still a few people who knew how to sail a ship, so she left Hell’s Gate and headed out to sea for her investigation after a lot of deliberation.  She was just staring at the water in the vastness of the ocean... and suddenly, she was struck with dizziness, wondering ‘What am I doing here?’ That night, (Y/n) couldn’t sleep, so she tossed and turned in bed and finally came out onto the deck. The night sea of Pandora seen from the ship was as beautiful as always. It was a world
