Hey guys, I havent posted in weeks...and thingsll be like this for a while, I've lost a lot of inspiration for writing...and reading. I had took inspiration from my relationships, and it feels like lately I'm sorta unloveable...But I'll try my best...a friend had told me love isn't everything, another basically told me to suck it up and write XD, both of them were extremely helpful...you have them to thank for any and all chapters and stories to come, and I thank them from the bottom of my heart. Onto the story.
"Hey."
A poke in my side.
"Hey, wake up."
A sharper poke on my side, and a groan I registered as my own.
"Wake up!"
A swift jab in my side, and a startled scream as I jolted up. Without even bothering to open my eyes I stagger to my feet, and with that a bout of nausea brought me to my knees, and last nights dinner fell onto the ground. I felt a hand rubbing my back.
"It's okay, the sickness will pass soon." I felt their hand rubbing my back.
The voice sounded comforting, and familiar. I will my eyelids to open, a decision I instantly regret for as the sun light hit my eyes another wave of nausea came. Luckily yesterday's lunch didn't come with it.
"What's your name, kid?"
My name? My name is...it's...I...I can't remember. I try opening my eyes again, slowly this time. As they adjust I see a complete stranger, with coppery orange hair. He wears old, faded blue jeans and a loose, beige, button up shirt. His face has sharp features and slightly sunken eyes, which makes it hard to gauge his age, my guess, early twenties.
"Hey, can you speak?" He asked in a worried tone.
I nod my head but don't say anything, I'm afraid if I speak the nausea will come back.
"Do you know where you are?"
The question came as a surprise, I hadn't even thought of looking around to see where I was. The sight took my breath away. The immediate area is a clearing, with an extremely small cabin near the back...or, where I assumed was the back. A lightly wooded area surrounding the clearing with high, snowy mountains further off in the distance. But that wasn't what took my breath away, there were rainbows and and wildlife everywhere, I've never seen so many animals in one place before. But that's not all...there were god damn FLOATING ISLANDS! Some with waterfalls flowing off the sides. Strange birds filled the sky and overly large squierels and dear roamed the woods, it was beautiful...I've never seen anything like it. My stupor was broke as the stranger waved a hand in front of my face.
"Hey, you good?" He asked, yet again.
"Y-yeah."
"And she speaks! Praise the lords above for this miracle!" He said jokingly.
"Where am I? And who are you? What happened to me?" I had so many questions I don't think we'd have time enough in our life time to answer.
He held a finger up to quiet me, which was quite rude if you ask me.
"You're in the elven woodlands, or what used to be the elven woodlands."
Elven woodlands? Is this guy nuts?
"My names names david, and this," he gestured to the clearing,"is my home."
David...a strange name, maybe he's foreign.
"What's your name?" He questioned again.
"...I'm not sure, I can't remember. I don't remember how I got here either, nor have I seen anything like this place before...am I dead? Because if I'm dead. That's a shitty way to arrive in heaven." Well, this place seemed to be heaven anyway.
He was silent for a while, staring at my face as if he thought I was crazy. After proper examination, he just started laughing at me after finding I was serious.
"You hit your head or something? Everywhere here on this continent is like this. Well, for the most part." He said, still chuckling.
What? I don't remember my name or much of my life, but I do remember, that floating islands and this much wildlife isn't some thing that's exactly...common...or natural.
"And what continent is this exactly?" I asked.
He looked at me quizzically, with that stupid amused smile on his face and said,"Terraria of course."
And then my head proceeded to implode. Memories upon memories came rushing back. My name, my childhood, the deal I made, the events leading to me wanting to make that deal...it was like I was reliving my entire life in an instant, it all cam back to me, and I wish it didn't. I threw up right there, not just from the rush, but from what I had to go through all over again. David was by my side in an instant. I sat there crying, crying from reliving the hell my life was, and crying from the decision I made that landed me here. After a while everything went black.
