Azriel stumbled forward when his foot bumped a large rock. The terrain here was pretty rough compared to Earth and moving around was difficult as there was no set path. He was sure that this place was probably abandoned. Normally, he would have been quick enough to put his hands out to break his fall, or recover, but being as out of it as he was caused such things to slip his mind. He met the ground with a thud and let out a soft breath. Pain shot through his ribs again, around where the device had been.<br/><br/>He let out a hoarse cough and rolled onto his back. The more he thought about it, the more he wondered just how far from civilization he had been taken.<br/><br/>Space travel has been possible for the past few hundred years or so. It has come a very long way, though FTL travel was still just now being touched upon. Many different planets have been discovered, and studied, in that time as well, but space was an enormous place. He could have ended up anywhere, and it would be just his luck if he had ended up on some undiscovered planet. Unfortunately, the longer he was here, the more he was convinced that he in fact had landed on some undiscovered planet. There might not even be any life forms capable of human speech here. But he wanted to have hope.<br/><br/>Azriel’s anger built up as he thought of the men who had sent him to this place. There was a glower on his face, his hands balling into fists. As soon as Azriel got out of this mess, he was going to hunt down the men who sent him here, and dismember them piece by piece. He did give them points for being creative. Out of all the attempts to get rid of him, this had certainly done the job better than anything. He would be sure to give credit where credit was due when he returned. If he returned… if… He had to push his thoughts aside for now and focus on finding civilization.<br/><br/>He slowly got up onto his feet. It took him a moment to find his balance again, but was off again once he did.<br/><br/>All sense of time had been lost after awhile. It appeared as though he was going in a circle, yet Azriel pressed on, following the path, through the forest. His thoughts wandered to this place. Soon, he was immersed in looking out for danger. His heart was still pounding, and he was sure that the device had screwed him up more than he realized; he could hear things in the distance. Or, it could also be anxiety kicking in. This was a new place after all. Strange noises aside, however, his vision was just fine.<br/><br/>Something landed a few feet from him, plummeting from a tree, nearly scaring the hell out of him. Azriel took a few steps back and stepped behind a tree. Keeping out of sight, he eyed the stranger carefully. Who the hell..? Never had he expected to see someone so soon. Were they from around here perhaps? Could he get directions or something from them? Or maybe he should stay away… that option seemed to be the best one, in his mind.
