I Become Captain Useless

We started walking through the forest for what felt like for ever when, finally, when I felt like I would drop we arrived.  At first I thought it was just a rest when Jennie suddenly just climbs up the tree.

"Somethings coming," she said.  I followed her.  If she could scare a Czert off and she was scared I would be scared.  Then a monster walked out it looked little like the Czert, but on fire.  I was so scared I fainted.

 A Meeting With a Long Lost Relative

Next thing I knew I was against a tree with a girl pointing a knife at my neck.  I turned to run into the forest and ran smack-dab into a tree then fell onto my back.  Smooth move, Joel.  I thought then looked up at the girl.

"What's your name?" she asked.
"Joel Ramsey." I said "What's your's?"
"I'm your cousin, Jennie"
"What!  That's not possible she disappeared..."
"Three years ago" she interrupted

My jaw dropped.  How did she know.  But she did look familiar.

"Where did you go?"
"Follow me.  I'll show you."
"Actually, can you tell me what happened to that monster first?"
"Oh, right the Czert is gone"
"Czert?"
"Tell you later.  Follow me if you want to live"

I gulped and followed.

 Monster!

I hope that Ray won't tie me to the tether ball again I thought as I crossed the field.  He would tie kids to the tether ball then play and just leave them there.  I finally got to the poll and Ray took a kid into the woods then came back without him.  I nervously walked up to the poll and cleared my throat.  Next thing I knew he had me on the ground on my back.  He took me to the woods.  I looked for the kid that went before me but I couldn't find him.

We finally reached a clearing and Ray trew me across it.  Amazing because it was probably a mile across and completely round.  I immediately jumped into a fighting position.  But he was still across the clearing with a lion like smirk on his face.  Then he slowly changed.  His whole body now matched his smile.  Except it had a snake for a tail.  He had a golden coat that shined in the sun.  The snakes scales were a gleaming poisonousness green.  Then he slowly came towards me.  I tried to fake him out but nearly got burnt.  There goes my normal life I thought.  How was I suppose to get out of this?  How could I survive?  Then he blew out of his nostrils and I blacked out.
