How many days had it been?
Kakarot awoke after being asleep for the last two days; at least it felt like he was awake. It?d been hard to determine what was real, and what was unreal when you were blind, especially now that his senses had begun to pick up the slack of his failing eyes.
Everything else seemed to be remarkably sharper, scents, smells, and anything touched. He wasn?t sure about his sense of taste though, as all he?d had to eat in the last few days was stale and tasteless bread, and plain old water. Although he guessed it could be worse as since his sense of smell had become more acute, he?d begun to notice something burning his olfactory senses- which turned out to be his own nasty body odor. A nice mix of blood, sweat, and grime that ended up producing a nasty concoction.
?Ugh?? Moaned the saiyajin as he sat up, resisting the urge to lie down as his sore and stiff muscles protested any movement. Slowly but surely he managed to get up to his feet, holding onto the tree he?d slept under for support.
?I?m surprised I didn?t get eliminated while sleeping,? Kakarot was no less than shocked that he?d been given that much time to rest considering the dire and dangerous atmosphere of Dante?s Abyss. He couldn?t help but wonder if this was good luck, or just bad luck that had a plan in the waiting; either way, he couldn?t shake the foreboding sense of danger at the back of his mind.
A growl from his stomach interrupted the saiyajin?s train of thought, and placed it on a new track.
Food.
At first it hadn?t been an issue because he had some, but now he found himself on the third day in with no bread left and only half a bottle of water. When Kakarot had not been blind, it would have been a bit challenging to find a source of nutrition; however, he was now blind and as such he was now playing a game that could be impossible especially given his stink that would mask any food that hadn?t been 10 feet from his face.
?Hmm, quit the pickle I?ve got myself in,? he laughed, drooling a bit at the idea of a pickle.
