“As we move on!”
…
Darkness, darkness surrounded me, in a world of nothing, a valley of shadows. The bleak world of darkness was keeping me in its grasp, firmly planting me in a state of confusion and fear. I could barely make out any thoughts as I struggled to open my eyes.
I was cold, really cold, freezing perhaps. But, I still just can’t open my eyes.
It’s a simple command, just opening my eyes.
My eyes still refused to open, and my body refused to move.
What the hell?
Open! Just fucking open! I ordered my eyes through my mind.
Just… Open…
…
“To another lifestyle!”
…
After a while of more darkness, my arms began to feel a bit loosened up, then the rest of my body.
And finally, my eyes.
I quickly opened them to reveal that I was in a glass tube.
The fuck?
Frost had accumilated on the front glass section of the tube. I shivered as I noticed I was still freezing.
I could see a large crack in the glass, with dark red blood splattered on the glass section before me.
Fuck, I need to get out of here, see what happened.
I began to raise my hand, but it fell back down.
Dammit, go up!
I forced my hand to move to my chest.
Baby steps, baby steps.
I then touched it to the glass, clearing some of the frost that appeared.
C’mon, I can do this, just get out of this thing, and find out what the fuck is going on.
I pulled my hand back, and threw it towards the glass.
C’mon, I can do this.
I threw my hand at the glass again, the crack got bigger.
I swung three more times, the crack was almost big enough.
I swung one last time.
Crash!
The glass shattered before me, sending trickles of blood and shards down my arm. I really couldn’t care less, I just want to get out of here.
I pulled myself out of the tube as I sat on the ground outside of it, taking a little look around.
I was in a light grey room, tilted slightly, behind me and in front were rows of similar tubes.
I looked behind me to the one that I was recently inside, Cryo tube 5-5-21 a metallic label below it read.
Cryo tube, so that’s why I was frozen apparently, but why?
As I thought that, two questions seared into my mind, causing a totally new wave of confusion.
Where the hell am I?
Or more importantly, who am I?
…
“In a greater place.”
...
I walked through the bleak but large corridor as I came across a door. Bridge The tilted metallic sign above it read.
I stepped inside to see a large room, with a catwalk in the middle, and a lower layer directly under it. Up ahead was a large glass window, which was shattered and destroyed, its metal frames hanging out in thin, flimsy wires. The catwalk’s railings were in similar condition, falling off or bending down as I passed by.
I neared the bridge window and looked out, a massive nose of the ship was just below it.
I climbed out of the window and walked across the massive hull of the ship.
This thing is fucking huge!
After sliding the hull for a while I finally was able to hop off of the ship.
After doing so, I looked around where the ship crashed.
I was in a large forest clearing, all surrounded by a deep, dark, mysterious, menacing, and some other fucking creepy words to explain it, forest.
…
“We will not consume!”
…
I was walking around the clearing when I saw a body.
It was of a tall, grey uniformed man, he was covered in blood, two symmetrical holes covered the his neck. There was also scratch marks covering his chest and back.
Something tells me this guy didn’t die of natural causes.
Next to him, clutched in his hand, was some type of pistol, upon further investigation I discovered it was a .44 caliber revolver.
On his side, rested some kind of sheath, it was dark brown and its straps were still tied around his waist.
I got the sheath off of him and looked at what was inside.
It was a long, sleek, silver blade with a sharp pointed edge, and red and hints of yellow were on burlap straps giving a grip on the handle.
Primitave weapons for a futuristic society, I mean, where the hell are the lazer guns and shit? It’s a giant spaceship, with nothing but a revolver and a sword?
Hm, I wonder if there is a reason behind all of this anyway.
…
I trudged deeper into the strange, yet somehow erie forest, my newly aquired sword and revolver strapped tightly to my also newly obtained belt.
The snapping of the twigs and leaves under my feet was darkening the mood even deeper as I continued on my made up route, the sun was beginning to lower so I wanted to find someone quickly.
Where the hell are we going? The little me in my head just decided to ask.
I don’t even know anyway.
I took about three more steps until I came across a-
Crunch!
I heard something behind me, I turned around-
-There was nothing there.
I turned back-
Shit!
A pair of green eyes stared at me through the dark brush, I couldn’t see them very well, but they were glowing just bright enough.
Someone- Something is in there.
I pulled my revolver from my belt as I heard more branches rustling.
Crunch! Crunch! Crunch!
I aimed my revolver directly in front of me at the pair of eyes.
“Wh-who’s there?” I attempted to ask the creature.
As I finished my sentence about a dozen more pairs of eyes appeared, I backed up into a tree.
The eyes began to move closer to me as I still trained my revolver on the first one.
Finally, the dim moonlight illuminated at least half of them, so I could see what they really were.
What the fuck?
I looked over to the closest creature, it stood on four legs, with a massive amount of holes going through its body. It had a curved horn looking thing on its forehead, with a set of torn up wings. Its color was pitch black, and it had two long, sharp K-9 fangs.
The rest of the things stepped into the patch of light, there must have been at least ten.
I looked over to the closest one, it was glaring at me, ready to pounce, I raised my revolver to its head.
Crunch!
Just then, one to my right jumped to me as I turned to it.
Wahm!
As it was in midair I swung my revolver and struck it in the side of the neck as it flew violently towards the ground.
I turned back to my prior target to see it was already sprinting for me.
I grabbed my pistol by the barrel and swung down on the creature.
Bam!
I fired one shot into its neck, as greenish liquid oozed frome the wound.
I then found the nearest set of eyes and fired a shot into them.
Two more creatures pounced for me, I dodged right as I pulled out my blade.
The second creature got a hold on my hand holding the pistol, I swung my blade right into its stomach as it too collapsed to the ground.
I fired shots into the two downed creatures as I ran straight for the first pair of eyes.
I think this one is the alpha because the second I ran for it, the other creatures chased me.
Bam! Bam!
I fired two shots into the alpha as I jumped over its falling body.
I swung my sword into the necks of the three creatures chasing me as I turned.
There were about five left, I pointed my revolver to them.
They ran away from me.
