Chapter 3: My Fingers are Gone!

The last thing I saw before I blacked out was the underside of a car (and the oil that just happened to drip right in my eye). It wasn't very long before I got bored and decided to move. I moved around a bit and BONK, I hit my head on… something.

I reached forward and felt what seemed to be a wall. Feeling around I discovered that the wall completely surrounded me from all sides. And it wasn't giving me a lot of space. I pushed the wall and noticed that it moved forward a bit. I added more force and it moved some more. Then I heard a small crack.

By now it had become obvious that if I used all my force then I could get out of here, wherever here was. So I pushed and pushed for I don't know how long (23 seconds) until the crack got louder and louder. Finally, I saw some light. The rest was easy from there on.

Once the top half of the wall was removed I noticed that the wall seemed to be egg-shaped. Who cares, I was out. After a brief look at my surroundings I quickly realized where I was.

A giant green forest. How many of those are there?

Though I could tell the wood on the trees were supposed to be brown, they had a bit of a shade of green. I decided to rub my eyes to remove anything that might have flown in there. That is when I noticed that I was missing something. Many thoughts could have entered my mind at that moment, such as This is unusual, or How did this happen. The thought that chose to enter my mind was WHAT HAPPENED TO MY FINGERS!!!

Though when you have thoughts such as DON'T AIM THAT THING AT ME, or WHAT HAPPENED TO MY PANTS you tend to get over things quickly. I didn't feel any pain anyways.

As for the thing that was in my eye, it turned out to be my hair that magically turned green. If you want to know why I didn't freak out then you aren't reading this very well. But it was still a mystery as to why my hair was green. Also, my watch was gone, but I was sure it was sometime around 10:30…. AAAHHHHHHHHH!!! WHERE THE HELL AM I!!!

In a panic, I tripped over something. Looking at my feet, I noticed the relic I bought from the old man. That was quickly ignored by the fact that I was wearing loose fitting white pants. I tried to tighten them, but the pain caused by that made me realize that the pants were my skin. Freak out time!

After I got over it in 0.5 seconds I picked up the relic and decided to find a way out of this forest. It would have been easier if I knew where I was. That was when I noticed a Pelliper fly overhead. Hmmmmm, I wondered, Is it leaving, or headed towards the post office?

I then picked up some random stick from the ground and flung it into the air. The way that the sharp end points towards shall decide where I go. The stick landed and pointed in the direction the Pelliper was headed. That's when I decided that I was NOT headed that way.

I ran in the direction I had decided on, trying to comprehend how I picked up the stick without fingers, when I realized just how tired I was. Breaking out of an egg then running around the place was not the best way to conserve energy. Sitting down next to a lake I spent my time skipping rocks. I decided to get a look in the lake in case there were anymore surprises.

Along with figuring out I had no fingers, I also discovered I lacked a nose. I also had two pinkish, flat horns, one in front, and another behind my head. How did those get there? Moving my hair out of the way, I saw that my eyes had changed to red in color. I sighed, then returned to skipping rocks.

As I was getting ready to throw one, it accidentally flew out of my hands and into the bushes behind me. I heard a BONK, an "ow", then a very threatening growl.

Why me?
