《 sgt entry 》 hello there! this is my entry for scratch's got talent. this entry has two parts, the art, and a piece of writing that goes with it. story - Clyde turned his head to look out of the corner of his eye at Elijah. The younger boy was cheering and yipping with the rest of the crowd. Their discordant voices blurred together and echoed through the auditorium. He closed his eyes at the sight of one of his friends, who had changed so much after his grafting, cheer as another poor child was punished for a useless crime. It seemed so pointless to hurt someone for sharing their food with a starving neighbor who was too sick to feed themselves. Suddenly, Clyde couldn't take the shrieking cries and the pounding of feet against stone. He turned, pushing his way through the crowd, away from where the person who meant most to him in the world cowered in the center of an arena that was calling for his blood. When he had finally made it out of the crush of bodies and the smell of musty fur mixed with sweat, he ran to the edge of the village. His boots pounded the dirt path and the blue vest he fought so hard to keep hidden flapped in the brisk wind. The fence that surrounded the village was easy to jump over. He took a flying leap, his foot just brushing the old wood and landed on the other side. The peace of the forest instantly surrounded him, but he kept running until his head stopped spinning. He slowed when his fox ears, pricked as he'd learned to always have them, picked up the faint sound of rushing water. Nothing else moved in the stillness of evening as he pushed past a dense bramble. Just beyond it, a beautiful river flowed through the forest. Carefully, Clyde crept to the edge of the river and leapt deftly onto his favorite boulder. The mist that came off the waterfall just upstream of him cooled his face, which was still flushed from both anger and his sprint through the woods. Quietly, he let out a long breath, and relaxed. 《 credits 》 . art . me . code . me . story . me . audio . Little Talks by Of Monsters and Men . characters .
