Chapter 5
An Almost Ordinary Day
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Dark. Warm. Soft. Dry. Lifting Cover. Seeing Darkness.
Miserable. Predator. Murderer.
Guilty…
I lingered in My Shelter for days, My own guilty thoughts echoing through My Head.
Kill is cruel…
Dark. Warm. Soft. Dry.
Lifting Cover. Seeing Darkness…
Only Darkness, Ever Darkness,
All Around Me.
For My Reality is Darkness,
That I Learned So Long Ago…- Reality is so cruel sometimes…- I Am
Darkness- or am I?
Or Am I?
Or Am I? I Might as well give myself I chance to find out. Brooding in here does Me NO good. Me Leave Here For Awhile. Me Leave NOW.

The Fresh Air and Green Light, though dim, felt wonderful. My Heart was still heavy, but whose wouldn't be, thinking yourself a murderer in a world of innocence?
I slithered along for a few hours. Then I saw a Large Furry Creature with pointy ears. It was mostly orange colored, though some black was quite noticeable. It was eating the carcass of a small creature.
"You killed it."
"So? Lots of creatures kill. You need to eat to live anyway. By the way, you'd make a good dessert."
The- Fox gave Me a toothy grin. I laughed, a laugh filled with the sound of hissing.
"Oh, no thank You. I'm not hungry right now. It would be a pity to waste your carcass, you would be quite tasty."
I bit a small plant lightly, allowing a drop of My poison to enter it. It withered within seconds. I had made My point.
He grinned his toothy grin again.
"I'll get back to My meal now then, shall I?"
I laughed, and slithered friskily away.
It was wonderful to know I wasn't the only one who killed. I wasn't as bad of a creature as I thought. I still wouldn't take killing lightly, but now My heart was so much lighter, and I could enjoy Myself. I began to play, slithering up the pillars, sometimes even jumping from one to another, and climbing, dodging and exploring the foliage.

I lay curled up in My shelter. My thoughts wandered slightly,
just before I fell asleep.
Dark. Warm. Soft. Dry. Pleasant. Safe.
I didn't kill anything today! Has it been an ordanary day?
No. Not quite. I guess you could say that it's been
An Almost Ordinary Day.
No, this is not the end. There will probably be about four more chapters. ^_^
