*Dusts this off and clears throat*
Sooo, I'm back. Sorry for the wait, but I am listening to a mixture of Fozzy's 'Do You Want To Start A War', AC-DC's 'Shoot To Thrill', and various Fall Out Boy songs, so shit is about to hit the fan.
Sequoia's POV
Today I was going to the desert for more testing of my abilities and to see if I adapted at all to the climate. Before we went however, something incredible happened. I was heading through the garden when my nose started to tickle. Oh no, nonono.
"ACHOO!"
A mixture of seeds and sap went flying out of my nose as I sneezed the biggest sneeze of my entire life.
"Yeesh, that was some sneeze, right Tages?"
I didn't get an answer from the voice in my head for a moment, before I heard him answer from behind me, which was weird since it was usually like a voice in my head. I turned around slowly to find a 6'2" tall tree-man standing there, with his arms held behind him and an air of intelligence about him.
"Quite."
I would have thrown up if I had I stomach. This was weird, even for me.
"Don't even try to explain this to me."
Tages rolled his eyes and explained it anyway.
"You transferred part of your conscious into the seed, then the seed began to obtain a high exponential rate of growth until it had grown into me."
Tages hurts my head a lot, but I have learned to just take his word on it.
"Do you think the other seeds have consciousness too?"
"No."
I shuddered at the thought of any more voices in my head coming to life, and I had had enough of this one. I pointed a finger at his head and stretched it at a high rate of speed so that it impaled through his head. Then I heard his voice back in my head.
"How did you know that killing my body would transfer my voice back into your head?"
"I didn't, I just wanted you to shut up."
"Oh. Well let's head further into the desert."
After a while, I began to undergo yet another adaptation, and my skin turned into stripes of dark green and light green, and my whole body grew small prickles. My hair was replaced by a large flower. I was a cactus. The other trees at least looked cool, but this form was a bit embarrassing. I told Tages and Susan that we were just going to sneak into my bedroom, but my actions were noticed by Viridi just as I shut my door.
"Show me."
"NO"
If Viridi thought I was letting her see me in this state she was crazy, beautiful, but crazy.
"Come out from your room and let me see, and I'll give you a surprise."
I couldn't deny a lady's curiosity could I? I stepped outside as she reviewed my appearance. Shortly thereafter Viridi laughed louder then I thought possible, but I ignored that and focused on how adorable her laugh was. She walked away giggling like a madman who forgot to give a tree person a surprise. I tried to shake off the cactus form, but it didn't work. I was so immersed in getting rid of the cactus form that I didn't have time to react as I felt a hand go over my mouth and a knife through my back.
Sorry for the short length of the chapter, but I had to get this one up before I went insane. ALSO WHAT IS HAPPENING DOES ANYBODY KNOW I DOUBT IT. Fun fact: I modeled Tages's personality and characteristics after myself.
