A No Reason Walk (Thundy & Open)

(It's no problem if you join, but if you just said you shot me, that's considered god-modding, because you said that my character got shot, when it's up to me if the arrow hits him or not. Could you please edit your post just saying you shot the arrow at me?)

Jonathan was the listening to the birds chirp, and the silence. Then, suddenly, he heard a twing noise. He couldn't make out what it was at first, but then it occured to him. An bow and arrow.

Quickly diving out of the way, the arrow flew right over his head. Missing him, and hitting the tree in front of him. Breathing quickly, as adrenaline raced through his body, Jonathan jumped up and pulled a small knife from his belt. Quickly ducking into the shadows behind some bushes, he gripped the knife in his hand tightly. Waiting for his attacker to show himself.

While he waited, thoughts raced through his mind. Why would someone shoot him? Jonathan wondered who could be shooting at him. The government? Were they mad that he had left the "safety" of the country. Or maybe some wanderers? Had he stumbled into their territory without realizing it. Questions like these raced through Jonathan's mind as he waited for his attack to show themself.

(Sorry that this is turning into a big OCC discussion, but... I apologise, on a forum I'm from God-Modding means something different. Saying the arrow hit me is Powerplaying. You did not give me the chance to say if the arrow hit or not. Oh, and it's your turn to post...)

The attacker jumped out of the tree with a sword in his hand and walked over to where Jonathan was crouching in the shadows. He asked Jonathan what he was doing here.

Now, Jonathan was pretty scared. He had been in the forest a few times before, but not enough to feel comfortable in a situation like this. His voice stuttered a little as he said to the stranger, "I was just walking through.. Who are you? Why did you attack me?"

As Jonathan said this he was preparing for the stranger to attack, he twirled the knife in his hand. He was still crouched down in the bushes, so he assumed that the attack did not know he had a knife. Jonathan wasn't very good at throwing knives, but could try if necessary. He also considered himself somewhat fast, so he hoped he could also outrun the stranger if he needed to.
