... the Olympics, and the best long jumpers in the world were only jumping eight or eight and a half meters! Am I a superhero? Twice normal strength is a good thing, but not too impressive for a superhero. I picked up a rock and threw it. It didn't seem to fly any faster than usual, but hit the sand farther away than I expected.
I held a rock at arm's length and dropped it. It seemed to hang in the air a split second, before falling slower than I thought it should. The sun wasn't as bright as I remembered, and the color wasn't quite right. I thought the sun was more yellow, instead of blue? This was VERY strange, but there was nothing I could do about it at the moment.
I was getting hungry. I decided I should try to find some food. I circled the whole area, finding water dripping out of the rocks in a total of six places. Finding a natural spring in the desert is uncommon. Two in less than a kilometer is a minor miracle. Six? That just doesn't happen!
There were no signs of food or a way out, but I found a few pieces of broken glass and two empty soda bottles. I could use them to carry water if I could find anywhere to go. There wasn't much chance of getting more lost than I already was, so I decided to walk to the middle of the area. I saw a large rock pile there. Maybe I could get a better view on top the rocks?
I saw a log and several sticks from a dead tree on the way there. I picked one up for a walking stick. There were hundreds of dead weeds sticking out of ...
... the sand, a meter or two apart. Summer isn't kind to plants in the desert. Five or six small cacti were the only green in sight, and they weren't edible varieties.
I climbed up on the rock pile, and saw about what I expected, cliffs all around, and no sign of people or a way out. Near the far side of the rock pile, I saw a mouse pull a seed off a dead plant. Life! At least there was something alive, other than me! Somehow the little mouse gave me hope. I watched it chew the seed, as the sun slowly went down behind a cliff. That had to be West. I made a mental note of it. If a mouse could survive in the tough area, I could too. I'd try climbing again in the morning, and ...
A snake jumped out from the rock pile and grabbed the mouse! I gasped and retreated a step. I didn't get a good look at it, but I was sure it wasn't a rattlesnake. Maybe a pine snake, or a rat snake? Not a dangerous one, at least. Snake doesn't taste great, but it would be food! I'd have a better chance to catch it when it was cooler in the morning, so the snake wouldn't be as quick. I walked back near the large puddle, before the light totally faded away. I looked for the North Star, but couldn't find it. I was no astronomer, but I knew what the big and little dippers looked like. There were thousands of stars in the sky, but I couldn't find them either. Very odd. I fell asleep, trying to only get a nap and wake before dawn.
When I woke, the sun was just starting to rise. It was still uncomfortably ...
