I read the reviews on this and I was happy! I literally just started and people like it! And in reply to the guest that reviewed(wish you had an account so we could discuss more) I did realize it was a little fast-paced. I'm sorry for that, I kind of wrote it late at night so I was all kinds of loopy :p (kind of a habit). Side-note my story wont be updated everyday because I have other things I have to do (school ,work , life etc...) so it will more like every other day. Sorry for the inconvenience! Anyway back to the story!
Obsidian's POV
I wake up in a dark place without any light what so ever. I try to yell to see if anyone is there but no sound came out. I look around to inspect my surrounding for anything. Nothing. Nothing at all, just this empty void. I stand up from the floor and start walking to what I think is straight. I walked for what seemed like a millennium until I heard a whisper. I turned towards it and walked in its direction concentrating on the sound. It got louder to the point in which I could identify it as a female but still couldn't make out the words. I walked longer until I saw a light in the distance. I sprinted towards it, the voice getting louder and louder until I got there. It was a little gem girl that looked about Steven's age. I came closer and put my hand on her shoulder. She turned and I backed away. She was cut and stabbed in multiple places. But then I saw her face and realized who she was. "Sphene" I thought
"Why didn't you save me?" Sphene asked me crying endlessly. I fell to my knees in guilt and sorrow."Why didn't you save me?" she repeated but louder than before and with anger. I tried to say something her but I still couldn't, no matter how much I struggled. She kept crying with streams coming out of her eyes like water falls.
Then the void cracks a little and water sprays in on the floor. The crack starts to spider out like glass. More and more water pours in and the place starts to fill up. I walked my way through the water to Sphene and tried to pick her up. But my hands slip through her like she was air. She dissipated and the room was filling up faster than before. Then the void shattered and the water came crashing in until it filled the room and I had no air to breathe. I started to sink slowly as I ran out of air. Slowly drowning until I had no energy left and I became still. And I closed my eyes for the last time.
"Ahhh!" I said waking up from my dream with my face covered in water. Sadie was there holding a bucket looking at me. "Sorry! You were yelling in your sleep and I was scared. So I tried to wake you but you wouldn't so I got some water and sprayed it on you." I sat up, my whole upper body was drenched. "Could you please get me a towel?" I asked her looking down at my feet. She nodded but noticed I looked stressed. "Whats wrong?" she asked looking a little worried. "I'm fine. don't worry about me. I just have a lot of things on my mind." I replied. She walked in the hallway in the other direction towards the bathroom. She came back with a large towel and threw it at me. I caught it and started to dry off. "The brace I was wearing got wet too." I thought. I slipped off the brace to inspect where all the water is. I started drying it off after I got dry. After I was finished I checked my broken arm. I unwrapped the medical cloth wrap to see it healed perfectly. It was a little sore still but I was able to move it around now. I then checked my ribs to see how they were healing. They weren't fully healed but it was coming along just fine. It was healed enough to the point that I could walk normal. I was a little happy to see this but Sadie killed it when she started to talk about what I shouldn't do until its fully healed. I got dressed and went outside, it was beautiful out again today. But it was soon cut off when I heard someone say to me from behind "We need to talk now."
A tall woman with shades and a square Afro was looking at me. Beside her was a white gem with a skirt and hair that pointed backwards. On the other side was a short purple gem with long white hair and behind her was little Steven. I waved at Steven and he waved back making a little smile."We need to talk now." She repeated looking at me with a stoic face. I nodded and started walking towards her. She waited for me and then we started to walk together. Farther and farther until the three others were out of my sight. We walked until we got to the top of the cliff above their home. She stopped. "Why are you here?" she asked looking at me. "I'm pretty sure all of us are here for the same reason." I replied looking over the horizon. "Are you here from home-world?"she asked. "I did come from there but it was a long time ago." I answered still looking at the horizon. "Will you join us in our fight to protect earth?"she asked suddenly. I looked at her when I noticed she was crying. "Are you alright?"
ugh I hat working late to do stuff (its my own fault). Anyway I realized no one knows Obsidian's abilities or back-story. If you guys want I can find a template and give some info about him. And sorry for the short chapter, I was a little short on time. Remember if you have some advice or some criticism about the story please don't hesitate to comment. Thanks in advance and see ya next time.
