As Isaac stare at the pieces of the scorpion scattered about, he could not help but think of the battle.
"That was awesome. The scorpion looks tough but i never thought it would be so weak. No, its not that it was weak but that i am strong" Isaac thinks while flexing his muscle euphoric by how strong he is.
" The scorpions first blow was something though, if i did not have realm energy i would have been a goner. Still though that blow changed everything. My body evolved becoming much much stronger than i thought possible. I sill cant measure the precise increase of strength because of lack of data though. My mind also evolved to develop a six sense like ability making so i was able to predict the scorpions next move. There's even this feeling i have that i can shift the world with my mind. "
Isaac started to experiment with his recent found ability, firstly by trying to move the sand particles around him.
Try and try as he might but he could not move a single grain of sand.
" Why is this so hard. Is it really imposable. I will figure it out as i go, there has to be something I'm doing wrong. Do i have to meditate to enter the inner sate?. Wait.. what does that even mean?. My memories are getting more and more unreliable."
After he finished with his thoughts he finally decided to continue his walk but because of the fight he does not know where he was and where to head to, so he then decided to trust his luck and pick random direction to head towards.
....
"I have been walking for hours already !!! No scorpion attack yet , at least that would be better than this endless walking with five f***** suns over my head. Wait what's that.." In the middle of his ranting that has been going on for hours he noticed a patch of green and silhouettes of trees far away from the distance.
" Is that what i think it is " Isaac say as he increase his pase that ended with him running.
" I knew it an oasis " the excited Isaac say as he finally drew near.
Towering date palms provide much-needed shade, their feathery crowns swaying gently in the breeze.
At its heart lies a source of water, a crystal-clear pool with the water sparkling under the five suns and reflecting the endless blue sky.
The excited Isaac raced past the date palms and various plants and dive into the pond.
"Finally water to escape the scorching heat!!." Isaac says as he get himself comfortable in the water.
As Isaac gets comfortable maybe too comfortable because if he was, he would have realized that the pond in which he dive into without a moment has an unusual depth.
Deep at the bottom of the pond where all light is eaten away by the darkness, two huge eyes suddenly open as if disturbed.
