《The Mysterious Secret》Chapter 11
Advertisement
How many times lately had I been unconscious? Was the first thought to pop in my head after waking. Soon enough my hearing cleared and instead of silence, I heard more peaceful noise. It was the noise of birds chirping and of water running, not like the lab at all. I slowly opened my eyes, rubbing them as I woke up. Around me were no white walls, odd equipment, of anything of the such. I looked around at my surroundings, blown away by what I was seeing.
Rather than being in a laboratory room, I had been relocated into a large tent. Inside this tent lied several medical equipment, a radio, and some food on a tray next to me. Just now I realized that I was indeed starving, as my stomach growled. I reached over and grabbed some food, stuffing it quickly into my mouth. The flavor bursted throughout my body. Man, I thought, When did I last eat...
Soon after, I had finished all of the food on the tray. Now filled with more energy, I stood up and took a moment to think. I am missing something, for sure, I thought. Then it occurred to me, Hannah! Was she missing again? As I turned around, her sleeping body lied there peacefully. It is odd that we are not tied up or anything of the such, I thought. Walking over to Hannah, I shook her shoulders to wake her up.
"Huh? What? What is it?" Said Hannah. Her eyes fluttered open, taking in her surroundings. She sat up rapidly, most likely confused, just like me.
"I have no idea where we are, or what is even happening even more, but we've been transferred." I told her. In the background birds chirped, leaves rustled, and some water quietly tip-tapped. She nodded her head and replied.

"Neither do I, but I think the safest thing to do now is to escape and go home." She stretched, but before she got on her feet completely, she snatched some food from her tray. "Alright", she exclaimed, "now let's go." She stood up and walked towards the entrance. But right before we could reach it, a woman in nurse's clothing walked in.
"Oh", she exclaimed, shocked, "You're awake!" She took a second to regain her posture, then smiled. "I'm sorry for barging in on you, that was my fault." She looked around, spotting the empty food trays. "I see you enjoyed your food, and still have leftovers", she signaled at Hannah. "Don't worry, you're safe here, nothing is going to happen to you." Somehow her voice was very calming, and Hannah put all the food back, surprisingly without a fight. Hannah's face looked a bit entranced, as if being controlled. "Now if you'll excuse me, I have to bring someone to introduce you. This will only take a second. So please, young lady, enjoy your food, you'll need the energy soon." And with that, the nurse calmly walked out of the tent. Hannah walked over and stated to eat her food, and very quietly in fact.
"Hannah", I asked, "Are you alright?"
She nodded, and with her mouth full she just said, "I'm feeling great actually. It's quite wonderful." Then continued to chew. Currently I am now extremely worried, never has she acted this way in front of me.
"Hannah", I yelled, snapping my fingers in front of her face... no response. As I was about to slap her in an attempt to wake her up, the nurse walked back in, trailed by a man wearing a safari outfit.
"Good afternoon", said the man. "It is good to see a new soul around here. He smiled and winked at the nurse. "Please, Ms. Dreyon." She nodded and looked at Hannah. Soon after Hannah finished eating and stood up. "I believe it is time for formalities. My name is Sir Rogers, and this is my assistant, Ms. Dreyon. We know of your recent troubles and hope we may be of some assistance. If you could both be so kind as to follow us, it would be most appreciated, we have a few things to show you." With that they both turned around and I looked at Hannah. She looked back at me and shrugged, while mouthing, 'I dunno'. We started to follow both people out of the tent, unable to do anything different. We had no choice. Both Sir Rogers and Ms. Dreyon walked through the entrance and continued, leaving me and Hannah to follow. I walked through the entrance and looked around, immediately making my jaw drop in awe.

Slime of Gluttony
_____ ___, a completely and utterly deplorable person. Lazy, apathetic, and unmotivated. He spends his time as a shut-in, wasting his life away doing nothing of importance. This is the life of the man, a life of no importance. At the impulse of desiring food, he left his small and cramped apartment. Regretting his actions immediately, he was left with the prospect of a complete panic attack due to the numerous amount of people outside at that day. However, he pressed on, determined to find some sort of delicious food to consume. Life had other plans for him. He gets hit by a car, and after hearing strange words from an even stranger voice, he dies. However, minutes, hours, maybe even days later, he awakes, his senses of smell, sight, and hearing robbed of him. Author's Note: This is my first story on Royal Road, so it might not be the best. Although, I hope you enjoy! I'll probably write around 2000 words or more per chapter, but on average a bit more. If you're wondering, the cover art is drawn by me, just in case you thought I wasn't giving credit to the creator.This story might often times lean more into the comedy side of things, but stuff can still get pretty serious at times, especially in the later chapters. The story isn't super dark or anything, but character death is of course going to be a thing. Who? Well, you'll find out, eventually. Also, I'll upload chapters on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. I hope you enjoy reading this little hobby of mine!
