This is a continuation of You Are Dead, a Choose Your Own Adventure Story — Drabble Edition started by Bradan Writes Stories. Find out how to contribute here, or return to the previous chapter: The Mountain Path.

If Death’s sick little game taught you something, it is an appreciation for your life. You decide to remain hidden from the assassin.

With smooth movements, the trained killer hurries up the mountain path. Although he keeps an eye on his surroundings and lingers for a moment just a few steps away from you, he never sees you.

He gives up his search and turns to walk back to where the dead dwarf lies, but stops at the edge of a vast ravine, taking in the scenery with a sigh. He is just a few metres away from you now.

You decide to…

  1. …rush the assassin and push him down the ravine (click here).
  2. …wait until he is out of sight and continue your journey up the mountain (click here).

This is a collaborative story, and you can add a chapter with an alternative path, or a whole new story of your own if you like! Come join us at Choose Your Own Adventure–Collaboration to contribute, or check out the examples below.
