"THE SKY IS FALLING! THE SKY IS-"
"Chicken Little... how many times have I watched you today? No answer? Your just like my boyfriend. No, EX-boyfriend." I turn the TV off and finish my bucket of ice cream, blowing my nose with red rimmed eyes from crying. My phone range and I get up to answer half hoping it'd be my ex.
"Hello, Athena speaking, I don't like to be bothered on my days off."
"Thea... Please come back to me. Th-that was a mistake. I didn't mean for it to happen! You've gotta believe me!" 'Ahh! He called, he really really called!' I jump with joy and listen to his explanation not giving away my thoughts.
"Thea? please..."
"please what? Forgive you for cheating on me? It forgive you for sleeping with my sister? It's kinda funny. I can forgive my sister because she's never knew what you looked like, but you? I showed you a photo of my family and talked about my sister all the time to you! So, please what? Please WHAT Frank?"
'Please, please, please. I'm sick and tired of hearing please! Say something else! Like you don't want to be with me anymore because I'm lazy so you wanted to see- no that'd just make me even more mad! Why is he such an idiotic moron? We've been together for four years and he never figured out I hate it when people say please over and over again and repeat their words!'
"Thea, I was drunk! You know how I get when I'm drunk."
"Even better reason for me dumping you. We're over! O.V.E.R! So don't call me again!" I slam the phone down and slap myself for being excited about him calling me. "Why? Why her of all people?" I really liked Frank. I'd almost say I loved him. My heart clenched inside my chest as I sat under the telephone. 'I'm so stupid. He isn't the one for me like I'd thought he was. Just... Just need to forget him.'
My phone rung and I answered it without thinking. "Hello? Thea? I know your there. Listen, I didn't know he was the guy you told me about. I swear I didn't know! Don't be mad at me."
"Ella... I'm tired and i'm reading a book right now. You know how much I hate being disturbed when I'm reading." I sigh staring at the floor.
"What book? I thought you read all the books on your shelf. i got you a few new ones, but their more or less history books." i knew she was trying to ease me into saying I forgave her, but I hadn't. Not yet at least.
"It's- Ouch!" A book fell from the counter and hit my head. Chicken Little's famous line, 'The sky is falling!' ran through my mind and I chuckled picking up the book. 'It's not the sky thats falling, but my book.
"Thea? Thea? Athena? You okay? What happen?"
"Noting, just banged my toe into the wall again. Anyway, the book is called 'ultimate Book Of Creation'." I read the title. An old lady had given it to me at a yard sale a couple weeks ago. i never got around to reading it because I wanted to finish the rest. "An old lady gave it to me. I just started reading it, it's really good."
"Oh? Whats it about?" I flip the book open and read the first part of it to her.
"It's about making your own world, your own creation. Anything, living, dead, gas, solid, or liquid. Anything you want. You can create it and it'll come alive. Your own little paradise...Well anyway, I gotta go. It's getting late and I have stuff to do in the morning. Later." I hang up before she could say anything else. The book had sparked my curiosity. I get up from the floor and dust off my butt before shutting the lights off in the apartment minus my side lamp in my room and the light over the oven.
Sighing I curled up on my pillow and keep Frank off my mind. I hum and open the book to where I left off the last time. ^Will you want just one world or many worlds? ~ answer before you go to the next page~^ "Well obviously many worlds, but not all at once. What a strange little book you are."
^Worlds are only so far apart, there are almost always different ways for your people to got to those other worlds or no?^. 'Hmm, time will tell I suppose, not sure'. ^ Please draw the layout of your world(s), example, Earth has an inner core, outer core, mantel, and crust which living things thrive on. Following which, there's an atmosphere made up of troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, thermostat, and exosphere along with a history and theories on how it was made. Please make it in details.^
"What the-?" I turned the page and it lit up, projecting an oblate sphere. I touch a spot and it zooms in to show a rocky terrain.
"Welcome Thea, this is just an example of what you could create for your world." Instead of screaming and throwing the book across the room, I bring it closer to my face and study it.
"Is some sort of new technology? So intriguing."
"Something of the likes. Anyway, Thea, you are the next lucky person to make a world of your own, where you can travel into and out of, and you can also take anything you want to and from the worlds you create." The book floated from my hands and stayed suspended in the air as it talked to me.
"So I can make up my own world, what about the time differences if I say, want to go into the world I created for a period of time?"
"You can either choose a time difference from here and there, or choose to freeze your earth times every time you go. So long as you don't have life forms on your other worlds, you can change to time differences freely, but when you put life forms on your other world, you will have to wait for a period of time before you can open said world." I rub my chin like I have a beard. 'I could spend my time there away from everyone.'
"Can I make a time difference now?"
"of course, you are the ruler of this book."
"Cool, also, whats the catch?" The book doesn't respond for a bit and my eyes grow cold. "A little book like you full of magical things. You can create life? Playing God? There's always a price to pay. Nothing is ever free. Only a retard would leap in with the thought of everything would be fine."
"... You are correct, there's a price to pay... But the price isn't as bad as you may think. in fact, it's the way of life already."
"whats the price?"
"Blood."
"..." I stare at the book with a blank expression. "Uh... How much blood?"
"Just a drop of yours and a deal of not interfering much with the wars of men that will go on in your story. Also, only people with certain characteristics can be put into your book from this world." 'There's a lot of loopholes.
"Okay, I want the time difference to be a year in that world is a week in this world. Also, did you hit me on the head on purpose ?"
"..." The book never responded.
A whole new world
I place different colored stars in random places for the galaxy. Although each color represents a different element instead of just massive balls of energy full of nuclear reactions with blue stars the hottest and red stars the coolest. 'What would happen if i place a bunch of brown stars, next to the blue stars and combine them?' I mashed some of the blue and brown stars together and watch as they fuse together.
[Congratulations Thea! you have created: Water Meteor's. Their classification is- Level two creation Keep up the good work!]
'Eh? this is the system the book told me about. Sound like a little girl. Cute.' I make multiple WM's and throw them around the galaxy. I combine more stars with the others and made different types of Meteor's with them. "This is kinda cool. I wonder what it'd look like in person. Hey system, can I make myself protected from whatever I make, and go in it right now?"
[Of course. You can program it so your untouchable to any and all threats. Would Thea like to do so?] A box pops up with yes/no over the galaxy I was making. After I click 'yes', I go to the dashboard where I can go into and out of the world. My vision swarms as I feel something pulling me. When my vision cleared, I was sitting on a Water Meteor. Smiling to myself, I stood up and jumped from it to the next one that held lava inside it.
"Wow... Am I dreaming or is this real?Hey system, can I make stuff from inside here?" [You can Thea, anything you want can happen. Anything] My eyes widen and I rub my hands together. 'Let's get this show on the rode!' I wave my arms into a clap and watch as two stars collide with each other. The blast sends my hair and clothes flying back like a rushing stream. I clash more and more stars together, then randomly pick a few silver,blues,pinks,reds,and whites to clash together when the systems voice rings in my head.
[Congratulations Thea! You have created: Silver, Iron, Nickle, Zinc, and Alumni. Their classification is- Level Five creation. Keep up the good work!]
"Iron and Nickle makes the inner and outer core... Would I make a planet if I combine them with the Magma meteors?" I wave my hands and combine countless stars together to make a giant ball of the same metals. Then, I send the magma meteors clashing into the giant ball of metals along with regular earth meteors.
[Congratulations Thea! You have created: Magma Planet. It's classification is- level 10 creation. Keep up the good work!]
"Hey system, create an 'achievements' folder. Just put whatever I make in there, along with an image of the creations. I'll check on what I made after I make many things."
[Replying to Thea's request; A creation folder has been made and is put in 'Achievements' folder found on dashboard along with their upgrades.] I nod my head and throw the yellow nuclear stars into the planet causing massive explosions to sound out with blast waves. the planet continued to grow brighter, larger, and hotter until it was right in front of me. the water on the meteor I was standing on had dried up long ago so all that was left was a dry rock.
It now resembled the sun, only once I got further away, it seemed like the circumference was larger than that of the sun I was used to. 'If I didn't have it so nothing I make could harm me, my eyes would've bleed from how bright it is. At least I have a giant light source for the world I'm gonna make. I also need some planets to orbit around my Sun. It is the first planet after all.
After so long, I wiped the sweat from my head and smile. I didn't know how long I spent making it all, but I made it. There were six planets, including the Sun, and each were far away enough to make some look like stars and others neighboring planets. Two planets had rings around them and each planet had either two or one moon. 'I should change how many moons some of them have after I get some rest.'
"Okay, lets get out of here." I stretch my arms but smell a musty sent. "Ugh! How the hell did I get so dirty? I didn't even smell this disgusting when I ran a marathon! How much time had passed?" I swipe my hand and exit the book. I was sitting on my bed just like I was before I entered the book. I hopped up from the bed and rushed to the bathroom not even bothering about grabbing a change of clothes.
I jumped in the shower and sigh. "For me to smell this horrid... How long was I there?" [Thea, you were there for three Earth days, meaning you were there for five and a half months in your world time.] 'how am I not dead?' I shove the questions I had to the back of my head and focus on getting the stench off my body. After showering three times and a whole bottle of conditioner, I walk out with a towel rapped around my body and one around my neck.
I freeze when I hear foot steps in the living room and kitchen. 'Did Ella come by? She's the only one that has a copy of my keys. I only gave Frank a copy of my key in the city. I should take the key back anyway.' Thinking it was Ella, I walked to the kitchen and called her name. "Ella? What are you doing here? I was just about to call home... Your not Ella." I stare at the man in front of me. His shoulders were wide and he had to be at lest six four. I should know because I'd be lower than his chest if I stood by him. I always got this feeling of being small when there was someone taller than me, and I'm five nine. Not many people I know gives me this feeling.
I back away and grab my bat from the closet that was behind me. "Turn around slowly. With your hands in the air." I get into my batting potion like I do in softball, and have my arms loose, ready to swing. He slowly turned around with his hands up and a... pink bunny mask on his face.
"Take the mask off slowly." He stared at me and I felt a chill on my arms and legs. 'Shit... I'm not dressed. I'll just knock him out while he takes the mask off.'
He slowly takes the mask off and backs away. I could feel his eyes on the bat as he did so. He stopped when he was out of my reach and finish taking it off. My bat dropped from my hands and my mouth hung open. "Aaron?"
"Long time no see, Thea."
An old friend
I stare at the man across from me with a red face. When I saw it was him, I dashed to my room and searched for my favorite outfit for thirty minutes while shouting at him for scaring me. I found my one of the designs I had made , but when I came out he was asleep on the couch.
"So. How have you been? I heard you broke up with Shitface. You good?" He asked me wile sipping his coffee. I stare at him with a blank expression. 'Did he really just ask me if I'm good?'
"Yeah, just great. It's not like I'm totally pissed about him sleeping with my sister and then giving his 'I was drunk excuse'. So yeah, peachy." He makes an 'O' face and sips his coffee again.
"Welp, I hate to say it,but... I told you so!" He jumps up and points his finger in my face while laughing. I glare at him and without thinking, I jump up and punch his pretty face.'Whoops, why did I just do that?' He steps back and doesn't move. His head was bent down to the side and his hair covered his face. I couldn't see his expression, but an uneasy feeling swelled in my stomach as adrenaline started to flow through my body, heating it up.
"Athena... Do you remember what happened last time you punched me?" His head slowly turned to look at me while he rubbed his jaw. Dark green eyes stare at me with unspoken promises and I remember all to well what happened last time. 'Oh shit. I'm in trouble, I'm so gonna die. I'm finished, kaput, done for.
"Listen, Aaron, I wasn't thinking. Lets just sweep this under the rug and..." His eyes grew darker by the passing minute and my face grew hotter. It's only been a month since I broke up with Frank. actually, it's almost been a year since I broke up with Frank since the time differences between here and my world are far apart. Still, I haven't seen Aaron since I got with Frank, he said he had some business to take care of.
"Thea... An eye... For an eye." I turned and dashed to my room and slammed the door closed and locked it. Calm footsteps approached my door and knocked four times. "I know your in there. Let me in." My heart starts pounding in my chest as I search for a way to escape. Aaron and I had known each other for a long time. I know he knows how to pick locks, I showed him how.
I open my window and made it seem like I got out through it then, I hid under my bed and push some boxes in front of me so he wouldn't see me under there. The only downside to it was that I wouldn't be able to see his feet in some spots too. The door clicked, signaling that he was in, and his steady foot steps stopped at my bed, then continued on to the window.
"Huh? She ran away? That was quick. Now lets see where she hid the porno's. I'd be surprised if she throw them away." I stare at him with my mouth open as an 'O'. 'Th-that bastard! Those are his that he asked me to hold onto! Who's are who? I only opened them a couple times when I really, really board!' "found them! Uh... did she really get her own? Never knew she'd be that board considering how many books she has, it's like a smaller version of a library!"
'No! Ella gave that to me two years ago when I stopped looking at girls! Damn bastard, stay out of my stuff!' I was about to get out from the bed when there was a knock on my door. A muffled voice could be heard calling my name when the door creaked when it opened.
"Thea? You in here? I tried to call you but you never answered. You okay." A small laugh came from Aaron's mouth as he mumbled under his breath, "And the jealous, thieving little sister has arrived." I frown at how he used to address my sister, but didn't want to show myself.
Ella walked into my room and stopped by the door when she saw Aaron. "Hey Aaron, didn't know you were here. Have you seen Thea?"
"You can stop with the bullshit now, she' not here." Aaron snorted and closed my closet and prepared to walk past her but she blocked the way.
"How do I know your telling the truth?" I couldn't see their face, but could tell enough that they really hated each other. 'I didn't know they disliked each other this much?' I watched as Ella slowly put her arm over Aaron's shoulders and swig her hips. My mouth fell open at the sight and I couldn't tear my eyes off them. Ella was shorter than me by four inches, I always teased her for it by saying the man she'd get would have to listen to me because I would always be taller.
"What's the point in lying, you'll do anything you can to hurt her and get everything your pathetic ass can. besides," He threw her arms off his shoulders and backed up, "It's not worth my time. Your, not worth my time."
"Haha. This is why I like you Aaron. Why do insist on chasing after her when she's never going to love you like you love her. Just be with me. I'll soon take over her business once she's dead. I'll be able to get anything and everything she has and more. What do you say?"
"I say, your crazy, and I'm sure your boyfriend wouldn't want to know you were chasing after other men."
"Ha! that retard is easy to manipulate, I got him to cheat on my sister just like the rest. Only difference is she found out I was the one this time."
"I think you should leave. And leave the keys here to." Ella laughed and walked out the room. When I heard the front door close I didn't move. Aaron walked to the window, then sat on my bed. "She's gone. You can come out now."
I move the boxes out of my way and slide out from under the bed. I stared at him for a moment. Everything was passing through my mind as I just stood there. 'All this time... She was the one who betrayed me? She want's what I have? It doesn't make any seance. I gave her everything she asked for and more. How could she do this to me? I told her almost everything about my stuff, while I bought her equal to or grater stuff!'
"Come." Aaron pats the side next to him and I crawl over and lay my head on his shoulder. "Don't worry, I'm here. No one's gonna hurt you. You can cry now." I break down in tears on my old best friend and only cry while he pats my back and rocks me back and forth in his arms.
I'm board
I blew on my hot chocolate and sat cross-legged on my couch beside Aaron while we watched 'White Chicks'. It was my favorite movie in high school , and I almost always picked it for movie night Friday's in school. It just so happened that it was a Friday night. I got a call from Ella after she left my house and I told her I was busy with making new designs and was looking around town for inspiration. I had gotten inspiration, but it wasn't a happy one. When I drew new clothes, it was all dark and gloomy and filled with anger. Completely the opposite of how I usually draw my fashion lines. I didn't care and sent my work in.
After I cried on Aaron for the hundredth time and ruined his shirt again with drool from when I fell asleep from crying, I had him go and get my three buckets of chocolate ice-cream which I ate in one night of chick flicks and Disney movies. "I'm gonna go lay down for a while. Oh, and your clothes are in the dryer. I washed them while you were gone. Don't turn the TV up to loud. good night." I tell him while I walk to my room and fall on my bed.
'i'm board... I wanna get out of this world.' I flicked my hand and went to the dash board. I clicked 'Achievements' and read all I made so far. The planets names were Oceanic, Nebula, Blue Ring, Light Ring and John just because I couldn't think of another name for it, and my Sun was just named Second Sun. I clicked Oceanic and I was teleported there. Oceanic was like how it sounded, and ocean. There was land on some spots, but it was mostly just a giant pool. I still haven't added any life to the water minus the plants. I walked a mile into the water from the beach and dived down from the drop off there.
Since I made it so nothing here could harm me, the pressure from the water didn't do anything. I also made it so I could see in the dark and breath underwater. I still haven't figured out how to give myself a tail like a mermaid, but right now, it wasn't on my mind. I swim further down until I reached the bottom. There, I had made a palace using crystals and underwater trees and rocks. I brought down colorful star stones where I stored small parts of different stars for light in thin granite rocks. I used transparent silver kelp for curtains and drapes along with a sea of blue stones along the side of the walls. The trees swayed with the water currents and almost seemed to be waving to me.
[Thea, you created these trees, so naturally they know who their creator is. Their talking to you right now. Would you like to speak with them?]
'I didn't even know I could do that.' I nod my head yes and words instantly bombard my mind shouting. "Mother! have you forgotten us?" I turn to the tree with multi colored crystal leaves and shake my head no.
"I haven't forgotten you. Any of you. I just have a job that takes my time." Actually I just didn't feel like coming here.
"You finally talked to us again!" A baby blue tree that seemed weak and could be swept away with the smallest push cried out. It's long, almost paper thin branches swayed in delight. I made four different underwater trees. The crystal rainbow tree which was made of colorful crystals, a baby blue tree made of strong metals so it's unbreakable to almost everything. Then there's the Blossom Willow tree, she has thin vines that hand down low with pink peach blossoms growing along the vines that sway in the current gracefully. The last underwater tree is a fruit tree, that makes different types of fruits. I made it when I was hungry and wanted something sweet to eat.
"Don't worry, I just didn't know I could talk to you all. If I did, I would've been talking to you all the time." I tell the trees as I made my way around them. The trees were in the middle of the room surrounded by small green kelp and star rocks, providing a spotlight for them, like a stage.
I talk to the tree's about what I should make next to go with them so their not alone. They didn't really understand what else there was because I created them, so I just told them to think of a creature like me or like them. As they talked about it, I laid on the soft couch and fell asleep after I told the system to set a timer to wake me up after five hours if not so already.
[Completing Thea's request; Wake up, wake up, Ding, ding, ding,. .. Good morning. .. Ding, ding ding,. .. Pa, pa, pa, pa pow, pow, pa, pa, pa pow it's a beautiful da.-]
"Okay! Shut it off now! I'm up, I'm up!" I yawn and stretch my arms before getting up and walking to the trees. "System, are they sleeping? "
[Yes, everything must rest. Without it, they would be in no condition to grow. ] I nod my head and walk out of the palace. I jump up from the bottom of the floor and swim to the surface of the water and walk to the shore before laying down. "System, how long have I been here. In earth time. "
[Thea, you have been here for one hour and forty minutes in earth time. ] I swipe my hand and exit the world appearing on my bed and under the blankets. After my little break, I was feeling better. My stomach growled and I got up from bed. Aaron was on the couch asleep watching baseball. I covered him up with an old Tinkerbell quilt that my grandma had made for me.
"Thea..." he mumbles and I laugh. 'my make up is in my room. I think he needs a makeover.' I silently plot what I'm gonna do to him and make myself cream of wheat with extra butter.
I set my bowls in the sink and grab my make up kit, then creep into the living room and take out eyeliner. I use the liquid type so i wouldn't have to press to hard on his face. then I grab my blush and pat it on his cheeks and apply some dark red lip gloss on his lips. Then it was time for the eye shadows. I used all the colors I never do and add an accent on his cheekbones to make them look higher.
After I was satisfied with my work, I put everything up and laid back in bed with peaceful dreams all throughout the night.
Wake up surprise
"What the f**k !? Thea! I know it was you! Your the only one in here besides me!" I wake up drowsily and walk out of the room. There, Aaron was standing, fuming in the door to the bathroom. He slowly turned to me and I realized why he had yelled so early in the morning. I covered my mouth to stop laughing, but it just slipped out and I couldn't stop. I started snorting, hiccuping, and laughing at the same time. I even sneezed a few times to. I didn't notice Aaron walk into the kitchen and come out with my cheese cake that I had yet to put into the pie crust I made.
"Yum. This is some good cheese cake Thea. You did good." Aaron stood there smirking while he ate my food. I'm a nice person and I share my things, but there are some tings I'll never be happy sharing. One of those is my cheese cake.
"Hey! That's mine!" I jump up and try to reach the cheese cake but he held it above his head. "Curse you and your stupid six five height! " I squat down low and push off from the ground as herd as I could. "Yes! I- Ow!" I hit my head on the ceiling and land on Aaron , sending both of us to the ground.
"Thea, you okay?" I didn't want want to move. It was so warm, like my blanket that my grandma had made me. "Thea?"
"Shh, it's so warm." 'If I knew what was under here I would've hugged him all the time instead of those sill fist bumps.' I stay still on Aaron's chest for a little while longer when I feel a bump touching my hip. My heart starts to beat fast and my face heats up.
"T-thea, maybe you should... Get off me now. I haven't taken a shower in a couple of days. 'I was right, this is payback for eating my food. Totally not because I'm comfortable.'
"Smell fine to me." I wiggle a little to get a warmer spot when he grabs my arms.
"Thea... Get. Up. Now." I stop moving and look at his face. His eyes were dark again. I slowly tense my body and spring up, pulling him along with me and push him into the bathroom before closing the door. The shower started right away.
'Maybe I pushed him a little to far? He did deserve it though, besides, he knows how much of a pervert I can be. Should've pushed me off sooner.' I humph and head to my room and change into a warm, baby blue, wool sweat shirt and black leggings. I slip my feet into my fluffy purple house shoes and sit on the couch and counting how long Aaron's been in the bathroom.
*crunch, crunch, crunch*
*crunch, crunch, crunch*
I munch on popcorn and watch boogeyman. There was popcorn scattered around me in a circle. I jumped to many times to count during the movie and still watched it. I knew I'd be terrified to turn my light off in the room later when I go to lay down, but I didn't care, I still wanted to watch it. I glance at the clock, then at the bathroom where the water was still running.
"Aaron, it's been two hours, your running my water bill up. I don't want to buy any cold medicine on top of it to...Aaron?" I get up and walk to the bathroom, careful not to step on any popcorn that'd I'd have to clean up later. "Hello, did you fall asleep in there?"
I knock on the door and turn the knob, it was unlocked. "Aaron... I'm coming in..." I slowly open the door and peak my head in. I breathed a sigh of relief when I saw the curtains closed. I grab one of my long towels from the cupboard behind the door and cautiously pull the curtain back and turn the water off. I push it back further and see Aaron lying in the tub. I quickly throw the towel over him and shake him.
"Hey, hey Aaron! get up. You can't sleep here. Aaron-" His hand grabs my arm. Dark green eyes stare at me, pulling me into a green abyss. "A-Aaron... What's wrong?" The water droplets on his skin were ice cold, but his skin it's self was blazing.
"Thea..." His breath smelled like alcohol when he said my name. I then notice a flask on the ground next to his pants. I pick it up and smell it.
"Uh. Aaron... Did you make your own beer again?" He had a talent of making the strongest drinks ever. I'm a drinker and can barely have more than a small shot, let alone a flask of it. I set it down and put my arms around him. "Let's get you out in bed. Try to stand up, okay?" I sigh and help him up while holding the towel so t wouldn't fall.
"Have we met before? Perhaps in a dream, my little goddesses." I roll my eyes at his stupid pickup line and help him into my room. 'I don't even want to know' I shook my head and covered him up with a warm blanket and shut the door.'He'll be fine.' I was about to go back to Oceanic and talk to the trees when my home phone rang.
"Hello. Thea speaking." I answered out of habit. The other line was quite then a voice shout through it,
"WHERE ARE YOU!? IT'S ALMOST THANKSGIVING AND YOUR NOT HERE! Listen, I don't care what you have going on, but I want you at this house in two days... and bring your boyfriend!" she hung up before I could say a word.
"this is going to be fun... not." I put the phone down and collapse on the couch before flicking my hand and going to Oceanic. The trees were still sleeping when I go there, so I just picked a fruit and sat down trying to make different animals to swim in the water
[Congratulations Thea! you have made your 100th animal! would you like a short cut to make more?] I click yes and watch as a clusters of animals appear in a swirling mass, then shoot off to different places. Some stayed, while others left. I watched silently as they swarmed around the trees and started making their homes.
'Their so cute... Aww, is that a blob fish? You look so cute when your born.' I pick up the pink blob and pet it before letting it go. It swam off and dug under the sand, before going away. I sit and watch all the sea creatures before falling asleep.
Nebula
I wake up and check the time. I was asleep for a few hours, meaning not much time has passed on earth. 'I should go to the other planets.' I swipe my hand and swim to shore while I pick which planet I want to go to. "Hmm. I should make something up here first." I make some more earth raise from the ground. I put dense fog around the only mountain and made a water fall flowing from the top from springs and a giant lake.
"Let's make some trees here and there. And... What should I do, what should I do?" I squeal and make some thick clouds surrounding the top of the mountain with the fog and make cloud birds. I also made some regular birds with a slight twist, like the toucans for example, they can grow larger in size and the parrots can change from bird to human form. Although when they get that far, they'll still have feathers on their head as hair and some on the elbows and collar bones like necklaces. I set a timer fro their evolution. Every fifty years, they'll be closer to the final stage. I also made it so their langue is more like whistling. The notes stand for different meanings.
After I was done with that, I went to Nebula. Nebula was my green planet, with many trees covering almost all the planet. I had trees that lived in salt water, swamps, and lakes. I used the same fishes as Oceanic for the underwater world. I added a few silver and gold fishes that had their scales fall off making gold and silver shaped scales coins. After thinking about it, I made copper and bronze ones as well as making it so they evolve. I always wanted a dragon, now I can make my very own dragon! I made it so the fish would have to be killed in order for them to become a dragon. Only, they would have to be at least one hundred years old in order to do so.
Squealing like a girl, I start to make land creatures, starting with the herbivores. I made white deer with blue swirls and dots on them, bunnies with big ears and purple, green, and red eyes. Their bodies had little arrows on their backs like a race car, since they can run really fast. Next were gazelles , but I kept them as they were... Maybe a little bigger then the norm, only five meters tall. I made a bunch more animals that were herbivores, then made the carnivores. I made wolves, bears, tigers, and adorable big blue-eyed type of deer, well, they shouldn't be called deer since they eat meat and are small. They also travel in packs, are small, but have small, pointed teeth and dagger like curved spikes on their back.
When I got to the last classification, I was tired and sat down to take a breather and watched the animals. Pride swelled in my chest as I watched them hunt, reproduce, and empty out their waste anywhere they pleased. Although I had to turn my head at most of the things they did, I'm not into animal porn.
I stood up and made a few pink, black, white, brown, and black and white porky pine bears then scattered them all around. Smiling, I made more animals that ate both berries and meat. Not feeling like making humans yet, I make habitats for them and some mountain ranges with big cats like pumas and jaguars travel on. Patting myself and doing a few embarrassing dances, I go back to earth and see only a few hours had passed.
My stomach growled and I made my way to the fridge, where I was almost out of food. I wondered weather I should make animals that loved to cook, or perhaps even elves. I could hire them as my cooks and just put on a 'holy light' so they don't see me. I put 'create elves' on my creation to-do list. Humming, I made a PB J and watched The Jogging Dead, 'that would be fun to have a zombie apocalypses. I'll set it for 3029 or some time for another planet.' Thinking of how fun it'd be, I ogle the archer and skip some of the episodes that didn't have enough gore in them. I watched TV for a few hours before falling asleep.
When I woke up again, Aaron was laying on my legs, thankfully he wore some pants. I thought back to how I messed with him and to what my sister had said. I rubbed my head, relationships were harder then making a universe. I laid my head on the side of the couch, watching him sleep. I'd be lying if I said I was never attracted to him, but I didn't want to loose my best friend over a relationship. I don't even know if it would last.
"Why is life so complicating... Why do I make things so complicated, I'm such an idiot." I stroke my hand through his soft, silky red hair. "What am I doing... Crushing on my best friend knowing he likes me to, but not knowing how to tell him. What about starting with the distractions that I didn't mind but never matched up to him, or how about sending girls his way so he could look another way and not see my eyes... Hmm. I never did think if doing all that would ruin our friendship, although it seems like were friends with benefits even though were not. I really took it to far today."
I didn't notice the change in Aaron's breathing until I watched his back. "...Your awake... Aren't you..." He lifted his head up with mixed emotions in his dark green eyes as he stared at my brown ones. 'Shit, I'm screwed... I knew I should've talked in my head.' "Ahh... s-so, um... My mom uh- s-she wants me over for the holiday a-and, I uh, have to go shopping. So..." I trailed off avoiding his gaze.
"Thea. You've been avoiding me for a long time. We can talk about this after we get some food for your parents. Don't even try to run away, I know all your little hiding spots."
'well I didn't tell you one. I could always hid in your parents house.'
"-And my parents house would be the first place I check."
'shit, at least it's not now.'
"Good. Now lay down, I'm tired." I stare at him as he made his self comfortable and fell back to sleep. A small smile made it's way onto my face. I laid my head back and went back to sleep.
world turned upside down(Part one)
I stare at my ex who was laughing with my parents while Ella had her arm hooked in his. I was glad None of them noticed me. I quietly close the door and walk outside. Aaron was just pulling out the driveway when I run up to the window. He rolls down the window and stops the car, "Come in with me." I tell him, without giving him a chance to respond back, I open the door and unbuckle him and pull him out. Thankfully, the car was only in the middle of the driveway.
"Whats wrong Thea?" He locks the car and walks with me to the door. I held the strawberry, blueberry, and plain cheesecake on top of each other and open the door like I only just got there.
"Mom, Dad. I'm back and made cheese cake!" I swipe my boots on the floor and take them off, setting them in the corner. I was wearing tan high-waist skinny jeans and a white shirt with a grey blazer over it, and a thin autumn scarf. Aaron was just wearing casual clothes, dark blue jeans and a long sleeved black v-neck.
"Ah, Thea dear, you made it. Is your boyfriend with you." Aaron pops his head out from the door way and waves. "Aaron? I didn't know you were coming over. Have you seen Thea's boyfriend?"
"Yup, he's right here." Aaron goes back and takes his shoes off, setting them next to mine before walking into the living room and giving a bow. "Hello Thea's parents, my name is Aaron , pleased to meet you. I hope we can get along well."
"Y-you two are dating?" Ella asked shocked. I nodded like I didn't know what she has done. She was basically in control of my life, every thing those guys have asked me were in fact what she wanted to know. I was blindly following her minions who were following her. "Congratulations! I knew you two were going to get together some day." She smiled sweetly while softly clapping.
"Well it's about time you showed him to us, but I thought you said we never met him before?"
"Well, that was just a joke. To keep you guys guessing, couldn't have you knowing who he was."
"I'm just glad it's a guy and not a girl. Seriously..." She shook her head and sighed before taking the cheesecakes and walked to the kitchen with dad and them. I looked to Ella who had an innocent look on her face.
"Sorry sissy... It slipped out. I didn't mean-"
"Enough!" I sighed and rubbed my brows." Please just... No more lying. What do you want from me? I have little time to talk to people who use me." I entered my business mode and cross my legs, sitting in a chair across from her.
"Sis-"
"Ella. She heard everything" Aaron cuts her off and smiles. Franks back went stiff as he stared at Aaron, then glared at me.
"So this is how you really are Thea? Ella was right, your such a slutty little whore. I can't belie- UGH!!!" He didn't finish his sentence because Aaron gave him his famous knuckle sandwich. A tooth flew out of Franks mouth followed by a path of blood. I almost didn't want to stop him, but I knew he would get in trouble if he went any further.
"Aaron, why do you have this bastards blood on your hands? Come on, you need to wash up." I glanced down at Frank who had a broken nose, a few missing teeth, and a swelling black eye. I would've nursed him before, but now... I just pitted him while happy Aaron did that for me. I led Aaron to the bathroom to clean his knuckle off. "You red heads are so crazy."
Thinking back to when we were in high school and a kid wanted me to be his girlfriend, I said no, but he took it the wrong way and started spreading rumors about me. Later when Aaron and I were walking the halls, his friends surrounded us. Aaron fought them all and protected me, although he did let me get a few kicks in between their legs from time to time. A knock at the door pulled me from my thoughts,
"Thea? What happened?" My dads voice came from out the door.
"That guy was just being an ass dad, he'll be fine anyways. Aaron didn't do to much damage to the kid."
"Kid huh... Alright, your moms helping Ella clean his face off, I'll be in the living room... The cheese cake is good to." I rolled my eyes knowing he's already ate a quarter of each one. I finished washing off Aaron's knuckle and made sure there were not scratches, only a little busing.
"Thea... Sor-" I cut him off with a quick peck on his lips.
"Don't worry about it, if you didn't do it then I would've." He stared at me for a few seconds before wrapping his arms around me and pulling me to his chest. I stiffened up before a tear fell, followed by a waterfall. The words hurt me. I wish no words ever could hurt me, but then they also wouldn't be able to help me. I already knew that without black you can't have white and vise versa. It made sense. But also seemed unfair, you never know when it will get balanced out with the positive.
When we got the stuff to make cheese cake for today, Aaron already told me how much he cared for me. My chest had gotten all stuffy and made it hard to breath, just when I thought things were balancing out once again, this happens. I sniff a few times and just stay leaning into his chest, enjoying the warmth from his embrace, wishing that time would stand still and being tempted to go into my book. "Oh god, this is so cheesy" I chuckle and snuggle a little more before drying my eyes and heading out.
World turned upside down (Part Two)
It was only my dad in the living room. He was eating cheesecake in one of the big plates while watching the news. He glanced at me then hugged his plate closer to him. My father likes to break the tension with jokes and acting weird, while my mom creates said tensions. I jokingly glare at my father then Aaron who goes and comes back with a plate just as big and starts to eat it in front of me.
"Seriously? Save some for the rest of us." My mouth falls open while they smile at each other and air-five.'How old are they again?'
"Honey, I know you too well. You have more at your house. Probably made six of them and kept three at your house in a hidden fridge or freezer." My Dad quarks an eyebrow at me and says, " You love cheesecake to much to share it all. Already justified yourself saying there won't be enough room in the fridge here for all of them too."
"'That's exactly what happened." Aaron laughs silently while eating. 'It's not like I didn't learn those tricks from my Dad. He puts his favorite food that he doesn't want to share in a paper brown bag and brings the whole thing with him to his work where he eats it for lunch.' I sit on the couch and take the plate from Aaron and start eating it while having my feet on his lap so he couldn't get any more.
"So... When are you having kids?" My Dad just randomly asks . I almost spit out my delicious cheese cake, Aaron took that opening and took his plate from me while not even caring I almost choked on cheesecake.
"Dad? Can you not?"
"What do you think Aaron? How many kids?"
"umph font orty ids" 'I want forty kids'
"Not happening!" My Dad laughs and turns the channel to My little phony , it was my favorite show while growing up. Although I mostly had my nose in a book. "Oh! put R.L Stine's on!" It was the episode where the ghost mother killed her two children by drowning them in a lake. This one always made my hair stand on end.
"Aren't you scared of this one?" I nod my head yes, not taking my eyes off the T.V. I jumped when her arm came from the fridge and laughed as I started getting anxious even though I watched it a thousand times. The best part was coming up when the T.V turned off.
"Hey! Why'd you turn it off- Oh." My mother held the remote and glared at me.
"I want you to apologize Thea, you could've stopped the fight but you didn't and let it drag on." 'Uh... I'm not one for apologizing, and i'll never be. Besides, he should apologize to me and Aaron fist.' She looks at me expectantly. Ella was holding Frank with big teary eyes with a trace of scorn in them. She was looking down on me. That little girl was looking down at ME.
I wanted to go over there and slap her till her face was swollen and then some. My anxiety started to make my blood thrum, I could feel my face already turning red along with my neck. "No. If you want us to apologize, then they have to go first. Apologize for everything they've done. Then I'll think about it."
My eyes lost any emotion in them, they left no room for discussion. My mom's face heated up brighter than mine. I knew the volcano was about to erupt, "Athena Jacob Ackens! You will apologize right this insentient young lady! If you don't ... So help me God!!! You will never be allowed to come back to this house!"
I stood up, I got my fathers personality, but for the anger... I have my mothers. "FINE! I'll go and never come back! I don't want a single phone call from you OR Ella asking for money! Why did I even come back? Your the same, always have been , always will be! Come on," I tugged Aaron's sleeve and pull him to the door so we could get our stuff on.
"After all I have done for you! I'm your mother! If I say die, you die! It's up to me to decide weather you stay alive or not! Don't even try to beg and come back you litt-" I slammed the door shut and stomped to the car, but turned around and said good-bye to my Dad before leaving.
I was fuming. Livid. Aaron drove the car while glancing at me every so often. It took us half an hour before we got back to the house. I needed to let off some steam. Quickly. I went to my room and put my pajamas and a jogging outfit into a bag before going to the bathroom, "I'm gonna take a shower." I tell Aaron as he passed me. I quickly started the water, which takes seven to ten minutes to heat up, and go to my Oceanic world after changing into my shorts and tank top.
I felt the warm sand beneath my feet and marvel at how fast things grew there. My trees were already fifty meters above the surface of the water. I knew they'd grow fast, but I never expected this fast. Blossom Willow, Crystal Rainbow, Baby Blue, and Fruit tree were wrapped around each other to form one massive tree island. I walked on the water to the trees. They felt the same, but different than the ones I made.
'System, what happened?'
[Thea, you have been gone for many days since you last arrived at this planet. Last time you left, the trees were asleep and also thought about you. They wanted to surprise you so they absorbed ten times the amount of energy they need and expanded. Since they were so close together , they wrapped around each other and made this new tree. Would you like to name it?]
'What do I name my first four babies?' I think about it while examining the new tree they created together and smiled, "System, I want to name it... 'World Tree That Reaches The Heavens'." I put my hand on the trunk, feeling the thrum of life through it.
I connected my mind with it, "I have high hopes and exceptions for you sneaky four. I love your surprise by the way. I never thought you'd out master me so soon, but... I still need separate baby blue trees, blossom willows, crystal rainbow, and fruit trees. You need to spread your seeds.
As if hearing my voice, the wind picked up and blew. 'Yes mother,' their voices were carried by the winds as countless seeds flew from the tree and scattered. Some landed on land, while most laded in water. I looked around and envisioned what it would look like once all of the trees sprouted. I walked underwater on the roots of the world tree and followed them down to my little palace which got decorated by their roots. Sighing, I sat down and looked at everything that happened while I was away form the planet. I knew I had to make humans. I didn't want to, but knew I would have to.
"Well this is funny, I came here to cool down and I did, but now I'm worried what would happen to my babies now that human greed would have to come." I scratched my head and remembered, "Ah shit! my shower!" I smiled as I knew that making humans had to wait now.
Making humans
'I don't wanna make people who might hurt my babies' I whine. My trees have already spread out, and their seeds have grown. 'The birds haven't evolved to the final stage yet, the highest one can have a body like a human, but that's only because it ate some special fruits from my fruit tree.'
"System, is there any advise on how I should make my humans?"
[Thea, through your thoughts I've analysed, you seem to want cultivators. Correct?] I nod my head and listen to what the system had in mind.
[The best way is to build the foundation and set rules and levels, then choose how far one can go to get to the top level, and if they reach the level, then what happens next?]
"Oh! I got, okay system, I know what I want for the levels." My eyes sparkle as I start to design the rules and foundations of how I want my world to be.
"The very Phrase groups will be called Mortal, Frozen, Temperament, Body Refining, Immortal, Celestial, God, The Final ; each group has seven levels , sometimes eight, and they will have to go through different phases> Baby, Toddler, Kid, Pre, Teenager, young time, Old , and new.
That way, when they progress, it'll be called as;
Mortal-baby, Mortal-toddler, Mortal-kid, Mortal-pre, Mortal-teenager, Mortal-young time, Mortal-old, and sometimes Mortal-new. For being Mortal, they don't have to cultivate, but they'll go faster if they do.
Frozen-baby, Frozen-toddler, Frozen-kid, Frozen-pre, Frozen-teenager, frozen-young time, Frozen-old, Frozen-new. Frozen indicates that their body will slow down their aging and freeze the further you go on.
Temperament- baby, Temperament-toddler, Temperament-kid, temperament-pre, temperament-teenager, Temperament-young time, Temperament-old, Temperament-new. Temperament tempers their mind, soul, and heart while the cultivators get ready for the next stage.
Body Refining-baby, Body Refining-toddler, Body Refining-kid, Body Refining-pre, Body Refining-teenager, Body Refining-young time, Body Refining-old, Body Refining-new. Just as it's called, Body Refining strengthens the body. This will almost always have the eight level.
Immortal-baby, immortal-toddler, immortal-kid, immortal-pre, immortal-teenager, immortal-young time, immortal-old, and immortal-new. This signals the last time one will age a single grain of skin. Unless of course one starts fighting and gets wounded.
Celestial- baby, celestial-toddler, celestial-kid, celestial-pre, celestial-teenager, celestial-young time, celestial-old, and celestial-new. Celestial's will have power over this world, but only if they treat it right and are not evil, nor bloodthirsty. They are not allowed to bow their heads or work for anyone but me unless they want to die and anyone who shares a drop of their blood will die and the souls of their family will torment them until I see fit.
Then God-baby, God-toddler, God-kid, Go-pre, God-teenager, God-young time, God-old, and God-new. They can come into my world with me, but they wont have a stronger body. Depending on their levels, their physic will be weaker, but unless they choose to cultivate there in a Body Refining level, then their body will become stronger.
Last but not least, The Final... I don't thing I want the same levels as the others... I'll think of it when the time comes, but for now, it can wait."
[System has gotten everything down.] I nod my head in satisfaction and start making humans through different stars, before crashing those stars down on the planet and sending the humans to different locations. I connect my mind with theirs and speak in a soft tone,
"Hello, my first children, you have land to create , voices to speak, minds to think, limbs to move. Grow and enhance your land. Make treaties, take land, it's within your right. Cultivate, grow, so one day you can see me like I see you."
I could see where everyone landed and smiled, but it soon dropped when I saw some of them landed on my world tree. After thinking about what to do with them, I walk to them. They couldn't see me clearly, I was just a ball of light to them. That would change once they started to cultivate though.
"Mother," They said at once and bowed down. I nodded my head and count the 180 people who landed here.
"I wont always be here... In fact, It'll most likely be a long time before your see me, but I need you to be peaceful on this tree. I need you to nurture it, and in return, they'll nurture you. This tree of mine is called, World Tree That Reaches The Heavens. " I pause and watch them before continuing, "I do not expect you to stay here your whole life, but before you leave, you must have an immortal level cultivation base and must return here every thousand years. Your descendants will also have to come here. Not right away, but they'll have a calling."
I raise Mountain twenty leagues around the tree, leaving two exits underwater, and give them a water infinity similar to the one I have so they could live in my underwater castle. 'Am I doing this right? Should I put down some more rules?' I sigh and look at them,
" You may disperse. " I jump into the air and over the land I brought up and went to the other places where I told them almost the same thing. Mostly about raising their land and taking care of it. 'Should I leave them with so many loop holes? Nah, they'll be fine.' I leave and go back to earth.
Stretching my muscles, I got up from my bed and went to the kitchen for some cheesecake. 'My speech wasn't to bad was it? I probably should've made not cards before I said anything. They'll think of my words years later to be small and criticize me.'
I laugh and feel giddy just thinking about what they might say. One thing about people bullying me that I have a major problem with is when they call me names, I get a little crazy and stat acting weird. My mouth moves on its own, especially when it's a new phrase I got called. I just rack up comeback after comeback. Now, I only hope when the people in my world criticize me they'll make up new words that I can make comebacks to. I rake my fingers through my hair and giggle.
"Damn, I think i am bat shit crazy." I laugh some more and eat my cheesecake. "Let's see whats on the news today world. Oh la la, my new fashion line is out and about. My workers are just to good." I turn the volume up and watch the run way that was going to happen next week.
"So tell me about this new line. I heard it surprised you all when Ackens sent you her new designs, they were all dark and mysterious, you said."
"Ah yes, it gave me quite a surprise when I saw them. They were like a Gothic , business women assassin type of thing. I just thought that she wanted to kill someone or she read to many books again, most likely to be the former one though."
'Aw, you know me so well Beatrice' I pat my eyes like I was crying and change the channel to politics. Last time I checked, war was spreading. North Korea and South Korea blamed each other for the assassinations on their leaders. Although if you look at it form a different perspective, one president getting shot then the other following a month later, it obviously shows that someone wants war. There's also Great Britten, France, and America who have negotiations on the way to cool down what ever is happening to make them mad at each other. Its like NATO and WP are getting together again and then breaking up, then back together. I know history repeats it's self all the time and there's no stopping that. But why now. I don't want any big wars going on. Well that wouldn't be a bad trend of fashion, but still. I was about to turn off the news when the television started beeping.
"Breaking news... Presidents speech about European allies;" I pause and turn the volume up. "This just in, President Thomas Lock's issued a state of emergency. The United States are no longer allies with our European neighbors. All registered Americans are being pulled back to the US and trade with them has now stopped. Any and all Europeans are being sent back to their home country and or, are being watched by the US government. Military powers will-"
"What? No! Fuck!!!" My power just cut out. "How the hell-! Why now?" I grab my phone from my bed room and try to turn it on. "You were just on with a full battery when I got food! What it- It can't be right?"
'No one would have an EMC here... Right?'
"BANG BANG BANG" I jumped when I heard someone pounding on the door. Silently I get my bat and make my way to the door. I put the chain in and unlock it. "Who is it?"
"This is the FBI, we need you full cooperation Miss, so we need to search your Apartment." I open the door and look see four men there.
"let me see your badges." There's no way to get electronic communication here, like hell i'll let some strangers into my house. They flash out their badges and put them back away. "Were you the ones who let off the EMC?" I asked them, still not moving the bolt from the door.
"That's qualified information miss. Now please let us search your resident." I nod my head and close the door to take the chain off and jump back, pulling the door with me. I back up and keep my bat by me as they storm into my home with the flashlights on their guns turned on. It was really pointless since I opened a curtain for some light from outside to come in, but they closed it.
"Are you all by yourself?" A guy buff with a crooked nose asked me and took out a small notebook to write it down.
"My friend is out at the moment, but he'll be back soon." ' Not, Aaron got called away for his job. The next available time we both have would be two weeks after my next fashion show.
"and what is the name of your friend?"
"Aaron...Phoenix" He wrote the name down and asked me other questions. Before they left , they gave me a paper with someone on it saying that their wanted and if I see anyone like this to stay away from them and call the police immediately. 'Oh no. Please don't be the calm before a war.' I was hoping that some sort of treaty would come from the gov. but it doesn't seem like that'll happen anytime soon.
The power turned back on and I went to check on Nebula before putting down a memo to make Blue ring, Light ring, and John. I was still debating on whether or not I should change the name for john. But that is for the future.
Can't inter fear.....
I was surprised at how things progressed so quickly, but remembered the time difference. I made it so my presence would be undetected when I walked among the living things I created. [Notifying Thea! The souls of the dead still wonder about. Do you want to make a place for them?]
"Oh, thanks. For now, just store them on John, then I'll think of what to do with them." I get into work mode and start designing elves. The shortest one would be six feet while the tallest would be ten feet when their adults. I laid the same cultivation path here so I wouldn't have a dozen or so paths laid out that I mix together.
I make the female elves first and imprint basic talents for them, while the males take longer because I for one, am not a guy. 'Actually, it would kind of be fun being a guy.'
"System, can I make a body for myself, that I can move into without anything happening to my real body. Also, I want to be able to transfer between the two."
[Of course you can do that Thea, but you are not powerful enough for that. Get stronger with your creation and you'll do well Thea!] 'hehehe. No more time of the month problems or pain or blood! I can just skip that period and go back into my body when it's over with.' I think about it but realize that I would need a lot, a lot of time before I would be able to do that. I finish making the elves and decide to check on Oceanic.
I could feel waves of pain that weren't mine. Feel the suffering that others felt and the anguish, pleasure, victory, and defeat. All of the emotions of others clogged my throat, shook my heart, and made my body scream in pain that wasn't there. It was everywhere. My vision swarmed and before I blacked out, cut the connection I had with everything in this world off.
"system... why- why do I feel these things?"
[Because your connection to creatures like humans is much more strong compared to animals.]
"Open 'Creators eye' for me." It was like I could see everything that was happening in the entire universe that I made. I zoomed in on oceanic and gasped at the sight. Blood was everywhere. It seemed like they were fighting for territory. I understood that, but some of the things they did were uncalled for. I was about to interfere when the books voice popped in my head.
"You cannot intervene. "
"b-b-bu-but their-"
"That is nature. When you gave me your drop of blood, this was part of the deal. You will soon find out that everything in life, no matter what kind of life. The fittest will always survive, sometimes the weak ones can ride on the back f the strongest, but their time is too limited if they don't become strong their self."
I watch them, before turning my head .I swipe my palm and make a crater open up on the battle field, separating the two groups before leaving and going to John. Since I can't interfere, i'll just make them their personal hell. John was a barren planet. Mostly filled with dust storms, and dirt devils. I wave my hand and cause countless sharp and narrow ridges under ground and above. I rose jagged mountains, thorny trees and bushes from the ground. Poison fog spread from one side of the tallest mountains while the other side was covered with deadly man-eating trees.
I released all the rotten souls into John. Some ran away, others got devoured, while some already had some materials to form their bodies. The way they evolved so fast was quite scary, so I made a cross over. A tribulation of sorts. If their strong enough, they'll get stronger faster once they pass , though if not. they'll either be struck with bad luck or they';; never be able to advance to another stage.
I go to one of the caves in the tallest mountain and start to create my demons. I used the seven deadly sins as the foundation, starting with greed. Because that's the start of most peoples downfall. Chants start to escape my mouth, echoing throughout my entire universe,
" You let your greed, your lust, your envy and gluttony lead your lives,
though never abandoning your pride, it never dies, and anger overrides,
all the while your sloth like attitudes will make you die."
Thousands of demons appear in my head. horns on their heads, claws leaking with poison and teeth pointed to the sharpest point. Some races were beautiful, but the darkness in their colorful eyes cast shadows in the heart of who ever may see them. I picked a few beautiful demons who happened to be lust and greed and made columns of bones erupt from the skin on their backs leaking black blood. the blood was good for human souls, but the demons who's blood it belongs to are hard to kill even one that's an infant. One of the good traits that my demons have though, is that they will never lie. But they wont need to since they'll be born with a sharp tongue.
A vicious smile made it's way to my face as portals connected to my other worlds sprung up , of course whatever goes through will become considerably weaker, and the most powerful one that can go through on either side would be body refining - old. Still, their strength would drop down two levels. I went over my work and saw all the loopholes, I didn't want there to be no loop holes at all, so I fixed the major ones and left the minor ones for them to make use of.
Time for the heavens. I teleported into Light ring. I grow plants all over the world, some were magical while others were healthy. I also put animals there and gave everything a faint glow. After death, the good souls would go here. I let all of the rest of the souls I had go and made a mass of glowing blue water with a drawing game of rebirth. One in every five hundred thousand would get reborn and only two to four will keep their memories from one million. Seeing everything going swell, I left my world to go back to earth. I couldn't constantly check up on it, plus I wanted to get working on my new designs and stay on top.
Okay, this is just the original ten chapters. I felt like they were grate and not bad at what I wanted, but.... hehe, it's an insult to my ego on how terribly they were written- I mean not at first, but ... you get it.
