A/N: Wow, I didn't expect to get my five reviews so quickly! Thank you to all my fans!! As I promised, here is chapter 2.
"I'm, I'm....this can *not* be happening !!" There was no way I could be a cartoon character! I was real, I tell ya, REAL!! "Ok, Colleen, don't panic. There has to be a reasonable explanation for all of this. I received an e-mail that somehow transported me to another dimension. But where am I?" I didn't recognize a thing. All trees and bushes look alike to me, so I wouldn't know what general area I was in from the scenery. There had to be something I could recognize. A bird in my area, or a stream I knew of, or a rock, or stick, or anything to tell me where the heck I was.
I started to walk around, looking for anything familiar. So far I found zilch, zippo, nadda, didley squat. I did notice, however, that there weren't any animals around here. A squirrel or two here and there was about it. There were quite a few abandoned bird nests in the trees, with the eggs still in them. 'It's as if they just upped and left. Like something scared them off. Weird.' I walked some more and found scorch marks on a few of the trees. "A forest fire?" I said, "But the burn look too controlled to be caused a normal fire." This was getting stranger and stranger. Maybe I was transported to a world where people were wiped out along with animals. "Well, if there's a 'last man on Earth', I'm steering clear!"
It was starting to get dark. I must have been wandering around for hours. I started looking around for a place to spend the night, when I felt eyes watching me. Somehow, I could just feel someone was there, like I felt their essence or something. In any case, I was starting to get totally creeped out. I wandered a while until I found a quiet little dead hollow tree trunk. Not exactly a five star hotel, but at this point, I wasn't too picky. I gathered some wood, lit a fire, and attempted to try to sleep. "There are no animals, and hope there aren't any bugs either." The thought of having little creepy crawlies made me shudder. Don't get me wrong, I don't hate the little things. I just don't like it when they crawl around in my hair. I'm just funny that way.
I tossed and turned and tried counting sheep, goats, pigs, elephants, and any other animal you can think of, but Mr. Sandman had stood me up. I could still feel someone out there, watching me, just waiting till I fell asleep to strike. I wasn't about to close my eyes unless the feeling went away, or I was certain I could kick the crap out of whoever was out there. Maybe it was that 'last man on Earth' I was thinking about. Well, he'd be a tiny bit disappointed. I looked at the fire, it was going out. "Great, there's a stalker out there and I have to go get fire wood. Someone really doesn't like me."
I had gathered a good amount of fire wood, and started to head back to my "room". That's when I saw it. A black figure behind a tree with red, glowing eyes staring straight at me. My breathing stopped and my voice got trapped in my throat. I tried to scream, but no sound came out. I just stared straight back at the shadow. It shot up into the air at record- breaking speed. Then I did what any sane person would do; I ran like my hair was on fire! I knew it was after me, and I had to run like Hell. I could see the light to my fire, I was almost there. The shadow jumped in front of me and I went into a dead halt. I saw that it was at least a foot taller than me. All coherent thought had packed up and left, so I tried to fight whatever this was. It easily threw me aside next to the entrance of the trunk (my 5 star hotel) and pinned me to the ground. We were close to the fire, and I saw his face. "P-Piccolo?!?!"
A/N: Well that's it for now. I'm in quite a predicament, aren't I? Send in reviews, please!!! Ja-ne!!
