Narrative Start

In the land of the lost, a family of three rapidly examined their surroundings in search for the deafening roaring sound that had awoken the frightened family from their slumber. Aged 13, Paz stumbled to her feet thinking of what creature would have the ability to make a noise so loud and make the floor beneath her vibrate. Her mother(Saffron) knelt beside her wounded father(Asarif). “Mother, the vibration is growing stronger and the roaring is getting closer. We need to leave before we’re too late!” “Paz, I can not leave your father, not like this. Leave me and your father to be, find your way off the unknown.”
“No! I’m not leaving you nor father” “Silence! You will do this. Leave. Now!” With a tear of sadness rolled down the soft and pale skin of Paz , she packed her bag and kissed her parents goodbye then sprinted as fast as she could away from the creature. Paz felt ashamed. Leaving her mother and near deceased father to be murdered by a horrid and massive creature of the unknown. Paz ran until she couldn’t feel the touch of her feet hit the ground. She spotted a cave and decided to relax inside for a nights slumber after clearing the inside for any creatures. Where do I go, how do I escape from an Island in the middle of no-where?, thought Paz sadly. The earth beneath her slowly calmed down, her environment was dead silent. A bomb of relief exploded in the face of Paz. She has escaped from the beast, but only for now. Paz awoke to the intense shine of the daylight. With a sigh of sorrow, Paz slithered out of her sleeping sack then rose to her feet, determined to discover a way off the island. Paz searched daily and nightly for anyone and anything to help her escape from this unknown island. Paz had hope in everything, but in her situation all hope was lost.  If Paz was to became extinct on an isolated island alone, she wanted to become deceased being proud. “I vow to my lord and parents to defeat the monster who stole the lives of my mother and father or perish from existence trying” echoed Paz’s voice. Paz planned to create a racket of deafening noises to attract the beast. Then with all her might, she would strike the creature. Her idea was crazy, but it was the only idea thought of. Paz collected rocks from the bottom of the sea bed. For the first time, Paz was having fun on the Island. The crystal clear water brushed against her skin like paint. The sea bed provided the most beautiful rocks that glimmered in the ocean. Those were the rocks she would collect. Paz collected around 500 rocks which surprisingly only a one hours time of work. Later on, she evenly divided the rocks into nine drum shaped objects. She began drumming. The rocks made a clatter of a noise. The beast heard the deafening sound and came storming after it. Paz felt the rumble of the ground, then the roar of the creature. It was coming, and it was coming fast.
