I really miss the first male Exenophage series >.
******************************
In the darkness
Sometime later....
Sleepy... I'm so sleepy.... Yet I must... Get up.... for.... work, sigh*
Wait... I'm not working, but... I... Still have to get up.... €£¥%! Well at least I don't have work to do.... But what kind of work am I thinking about? Ow!!! What the hell!! Ouch!!! What in blue blazes... Argh!!!... is going on.
(The wall of darkness thins a bit...)
(A bunch of short figures filled with light were moving in a weird fashion... While tall figure of light stood in the background. Following the motion...Realization)
Some damned turds are fricken....HITTING ME!!!!!!!!
(Rage)
(Darkness expands)
(Tentacle hands form and quickly grabs one of the small figures of light)
(The figure was crushed and the light faded quickly into non-existence)
[..............................]
Holy shit!!!
Ralph!!!!! Nooooo!!!!
(Crunch* Splat*]
Run!!!!!
[...........................]
Well at least they're gone... And since I can move? I should probably relocate before I go to sleep... I'm starting to miss those streaks of light.
Nah. I lied. I hate that kind of light with a bloody vengeance.... Time to go.
Wait where do I go? Probably up? But where's up? Oh right! I move the tenta hand in all directions until it hits something that had the most resistance!! Brilliant! ^.^
(Tenta hand flails around, lots of stuff is crushed or obliterated into dust and fragments. Until it finally thumps into the ground and goes about 2 or 3 feet down before stopping)
Ok I found the ground... I should check to make sure...
(Darkness spreads out in a very small areas allowing a dim light in...)
I can see... Great... ^.^
At least it isn't that bright...
(Noticing the hand was embedded into the floor he... Started to move around)

Where the fuck is the exit?! This place is a total mess, lame....
(Looks towards the ground..)
So the ground is glowing.... Weird....
(Looks up...)
Ceiling is as dark as the darkness... I'm starting to like this world ^.^
I bet if I take the darkness in I can open an exit?... Shouldn't take long.
(Hand rises up from the ground and touches the ceiling.... A ripple effect occurs on it and then a swirling reverse whirlpool flowed into the hand... After 10 seconds a bright light shown through)
Fuck!! I shoulda known... >,
(Darkness closes hole and remains thin)
It would've been the most awesome world ever if the sky was as black as the darkness... But life ain't fair...
I guess I should get going since I probably made it easier to find me...
(Hand reaches upward and beyond the hole, then reaches out a bit and grabs hold. As soon as hand begins to pull the main body up, the hand pulls the dark stuff down instead)
I guess I'm not as brilliant as I thought I was....
Now that I think about it...
I'm kinda glad that I'm not brilliant... I wonder why?
Well I'll have plenty of time to think about it as soon as I find a place to hide... But first I should get out...
The solution for this kind of problem is probably the fact I don't have enough hands...
(7 more hands spawn out of the darkness and attempt to pull themselves out through the gap... More of the dirt falls and is absorbed.... Then 19 more hands come out and continue to pull and collect more dirt....)
You'd think that I'd be out of this place by now... Maybe I'm to heavy for my little hands?
Then I probably need...to....

(All 27 hands whip around and spirals together before fusing into one big hand. That extends out even farther than before and embeds itself deep into the ground...)
If this doesn't work I don't know what to do...
(The big hands arm begins to shorten and then the dirt gives way once more)
Fuck!!!! How am I still on the surface if I weigh to much to pull myself up???
(Just then the light below him fades... And then he begins to sink downwards...)
I guess that's it for me... I'm not ever gonna see anything else.... For a while... Might as well sleep...
(The big hand releases its hold and quickly recedes into the ground following after the main body that continues to sink into the ground as though it was lead in water....)
Zzzzzz...Zzzzzzzz....
[...........................]
Somewhere deep down....
(Rumbling)
Gyeeeek?* What the hell?
I better get away fast or I'll get crushed by another cave in again. (Shudders)
(Small dark figure with a bean shaped head flees the area... Just in time to as the cave begins to fall in on itself)
Creeeeeeeeeee* hooooollllyyyyy Shiiiiiiiiiiioooot!!!!!!!!!!!
(Fleeing speed turns into full on sprinting as more of the cave falls in...)
(After sprinting non-stop for what felt like forever the little figure jumps out of the cave into an old mining shaft... The collapsing stops almost magically due to the old support beams that hold the shaft open...)
Gyaaa*.... Haaa*...haaaa*....
Finally safe... (Deep breaths)
(Small figure collapses on ground)
***********************************
And I'm done for today... I used like um... 3 and a half or so hours to write this...now I'm tired >.
I still have a class to go to in like 2 hours sooooo I'm gonna get some sleep... Probably near the baseball field as there practice won't start until sometime after lunch... (Plus my thumb is numb from all this typing)

The Cyclical Nature of Time
A girl’s life ends unexpectedly early, or so it would seem. Instead of eternal nothingness, she wakes up in an empty valley with no clue how she got there. Taking her predicament in stride, she sets out to do something about it. Unfortunately for her, the first couple of people she meets aren’t much help. They claim they haven’t heard of electricity and dress as if they were on a break from their job at a Viking-themed amusement park. MC is a somewhat normal girl. She's pragmatic and not very angsty. The story is tagged with anti-hero, but to be clear, she is not a villain. She does good if she can, she just isn't morally motivated to do so. The story starts out smelling of fantasy but will eventually shift towards sci-fi. It contains some supernatural elements and has a strong lead, but it is not your usual power trip. Expect a story that takes its time, but not to the point where entire chapters are spent on mindless chit-chat. I’m not into that. This is my first serious attempt at writing and I've learnt a lot writing this. Unfortunately, that shows. Chapter 1-10 is slow and rather pointless. Things get better, but it is not until chapter 25 or so that I began understanding how to structure chapters and to make them support the larger story. I publish about 3000 words a week (every sunday) but I write about 10000 words a week. Sticking to that pace, which is easy, the last chapter will be out by July.

Authors note This is a novel, that well is my first, I don't think it's amazing or anything, just a little hobby to pass time off.
