Synopsis

Chapter 1 - The encounter

Terra(Earth):

Here lives a boy named Jake Augustine he is living a normal life as a middle class citizen in a middle class family until he encounters something unusual.

It was normal day when it happened Jake was having a bagel and some eggs, to finish it off he had a cup of water to wash it all down, as he got up he decided to have a shower which was odd for him in the morning but he wanted to change things up.

What he wasn't expecting was this change was only the start to a larger journey he was about to embark on.

As he was finishing up his shower he noticed in the back of his home there was an object that shined quite weirdly into his eyes.

When he found himself annoyed by this he traveled to the back after getting changed to examine the object that annoyed him.

It was a metallic silver object that was shaped quite jagged on the edges and as he was examining it he cut himself, as the first bits of blood fell on it he dropped it to the ground and held his hand because he was not expecting to cut himself as he was about to head inside he saw a silver strand of liquid travel up his body and towards the wound.

When Jake saw this he panicked because he had never seen something like this before, he tried to flail around to get it off but it didn't work, so he went inside and tried to wash it off but it didn't budge, so he tried rip it off but his finger went right through it.

While that was happening another entity that was just awoken tasted something, a substance that contained nutrients, as it looked around for whatever produced that substance it sensed the same substance as before leaking from an elevated area, as it moved towards the substance it realized something, there was a foreign entity that was trying to interfere with it.

So it decided to precautionary measures and attach itself to the surface it was on, as it seemed to stave off the attack it felt something move through it, it did nothing.

Now finally it reached it's goal and it seemed there was even more coming from an opening so it traveled in.

Back to Jake...

As Jake was panicking he noticed it was crawling into his wound he started screaming as it crawled in, it felt painful beyond belief, luckily his parents weren't home so nobody but him could hear his screaming.

While he was sitting there he was wondering what is this? why is it trying to slither inside? Is it a parasite? What can I do to get rid of it?

As he sat there wondering what he was going to do he noticed that the pain was gone and he didn't see that silver stuff anymore.

He wondered was he just imagining it or was it real? All he knew was that pain felt real and pain usually never lied so he looked at his arm and saw it was sealed up almost like the wound was never there.

He was confused wasn't there a wound there a second ago? That confirmed he was just imagining things and he decided to go back to his daily activities.

Later in the day...

Jake was sitting in his room watching something on his phone about a monkey while waiting for his food and when he went to blink the next time he opened his eyes he was looking at the ceiling rather than his phone.
