SECOND CHAPTER! YEEEEEAH MAN.
Except this is version 2.0. Oh, and seriously, three cheers for 's new story editing system. So much more convenient than what they had before. I'm actually pretty glad I came back to this site just to experience this brilliance.
Anyways, here we go! A rewritten second chapter!
Anubis paced his room. Again. For Osiris-knows how long. If you looked closely, you could see track marks in the carpet.
It certainly wasn't in his nature to even be able to regress into a nervous wreck. Everyone who'd ever known him would probably consider him the most level-headed person they know. A calculating and detached demeanor paired with his preference for raw steak created an image that simply had no room to accept something like anxiety. Especially not the kind he was experiencing just then.
"If this is what I think it is, then shit just got serious." He'd already folded and unfolded the pink slip around fifty times. The numbers still glared at him through the creases in the paper. Anubis thought he was going to go through with this. He thought he was a man of his word. And yet...
He was scared out of mind.
Even when things were hypothetical they were scary! What was he to do with this god-given (literally) opportunity? It was too sudden. He had to go sit down. Take a nap. Perhaps resigning himself to his depression corner wasn't such a bad idea either-
He slapped himself.
"CALM THE HELL DOWN!" he bellowed at the wall. A crack formed in it. Anubis panted and sat down on his bed. "Maybe Julius was right. I need to grow a pair. But for now, I'll sleep on this."
He played Wii golf for the next six hours, hoping his brain would somehow turn into mush and he wouldn't have to wake up the next morning to deal with his new problem.
The pink piece of paper lay open on his desk.
Hm. A lot of things had to be changed here. My sense of humor back then was pretty strange. Still is. And things are still corny as ever. Anyways, the old reviews aren't going to correspond to the story anymore haha. Well, like always, review!
