Study.

Timber sits on his bed in his very dark room, just the slight glow and tint of blue light is casting a view on him. He is staring blankly towards where his Tv is hanging from, just below to where the Tv stand is sitting at with cabinets on both sides, left and right. He is covered in his blanket to around his waist is, his arms underneath the covers as he breathes slightly yet a little heavier then what a usual person would be breathing.

He is staring at a blank black medium sized book. It is standing up on the surface of the Tv stand, right in the same position just on the opposite side from him. The side of the book is illuminated by the soft glow of the blue light. Almost in a way it seems to be staring back at him. He breathes faster and stares directly at the book and with it the sound of his breathing also increases. He seems paranoid, frightened in a way. He moves slightly and blinks as he darts his eyes down and back towards the book.

He then pulls his left hand to the side as he grabs the remote and moves it up and points it towards the screen of the television as he clicks as it turns on, the light illuminating a little more but the brightness on the Tv is lowered as it shows waves lapping against a sandy beach with the clear skies in the background. The Tv seemed to have bene cut off before as it continues speaking somewhere around mid-sentence.

"-With so much going on well below the surface it is very easy to forget that the oceans are teeming with life" The voice is of a man, sounding around 30 or middle aged. It seems to be a documentary of some kind as the voice continues, with soft music in the background accompanying it.

"In fact 94% of life is aquatic, according to the USA science and engineering festival. That means those of us who live on land are part of a very, very small minority"

"To much sunlight can damage the algae that lives inside coral in shallow waters" Halfway through the sentence he looks for for a moment then back up, but suddenly glides his eyes back. In a couple seconds his eyes show confusion and slight fear as he moves back slightly and turns to his side and flicks on the lamp on the nightstand on the side of his bed. "To protect the algae, which is the main source of sustenance for the coral" A window is set on the wall to the side of him, the curtains drawn and closed. It's obvious it is night time as he turns back around and looks to where the book is. "The coral's fluoresce" The voice and the sound becomes muffled. And the book is not there anymore, it has vanished and disappeared. The voice is extremely muffled and impossible to make out what he is saying anymore. He breathes heavily and slowly turns to the other side of his bed, to where the entrance to his bedroom is as he first stares at the door back then slowly looks down to the hardwood floor.

The book is now at the entrance of the door, just in-front of the closed door. Slightly at an angle as its just standing there, not moving. A carpet is just to the side of it. The light is brighter and it shows the book has a small tint of blue color on it. Not noticeable when it was in the dark, just a few moments ago. He stares at it for a few second and glides his hands through his blanket and then looks back towards the Tv screen as the muffled voice becomes clear again as the person continues talking.

"-National ocean service. The ocean floor also has undissolved gold embedded in it, but It's not cost effective to mine it. However if the oceans gold were equally distributed among every living person on earth, we would each receive nine pounds of gold" He looks back towards the entrance of his room and sees that the book has yet again vanished and disappeared from where it just was a few seconds ago.

"Did you know that there's an ice sheet larger than the continental United States? Just two sheets of ice remain from our planets last ice age" He looks back and down and stays looking down to where his lap is and then looks back up breathing a little faster but slowing down sometimes.

"The Greenland ice sheet, and the Antarctic ice sheet. The latter of the two is very staggering in size clocking in at 5.4 million square miles. According to the national snow and ice data center" The voice gets muffled again as he breathes in almost sighing as his eyes slowly move to the walls and then down to the cabinets and across the floor to his bed and to the other nightstand expecting to see the book. He then tilts his head down slowly to where his lap is, just covered underneath the blanket.

The book is there, laying on the blanket near his legs. At an angle like it's staring at him. He breathes looking at it, he seems scared and still paranoid but then moves both of his hands towards it. He slides his hand around the edge of the book. The hard rough surface of it is felt and the sound of as he slowly picks it up and lifts it up just over his legs as he continues to stare at it. He turns it slightly in a diagonal facing it dow to the side as he looks at the all the smooth papers inside it. He breathes and blinks multiple times and breathes heavier and faster every second looking down to his side and back to the book cover. He slightly clenches the muscles in his face as he breathes heavily before putting both hands and opens the book.

The book open wide its resting more on his legs. His head is gone as blood is everywhere. Dripping slowly down his neck, staining the shirt he was wearing. Everything is silent. The television no longer playing, It's just silence and nothing else.

..The End..
