I woke up in an empty void of just darkness. I tried to move around but it felt like I was in water. "Where am I?" "SOMEBODY TELL ME WHAT'S GOING ON!" I sighed as I got no response. I searched my surroundings to see if there was any way out of this place. Seeing above me were three lights. One bright golden color next to it was a dark green and the last one was bright deep red like the color of fire.
I began to swim to the red source of light which the closer I got to it the hotter and hotter it became. The light released so much heat making my blood feel like it was boiling and my skin became drier and drier. There was so much heat that I couldn't even keep my eyes open so I continued to swim and try my best to reach the light. Then I felt something hard and all the heat left. I am confused about what happened so I pushed hard on the object in my way trying to feel if that did something.
I heard a click and felt my body heal. I slowly opened my eyes to see that I wasn't in a void of nothingness but in a village that is on fire and dead humans everywhere. I quickly stood up looking all around myself seeing that I am in the middle of a market street while all the humans look like they were massacred and then a roar drew my attention. "What monster did they release, I see bite marks and claw marks while some people looked burnt to ash or crisp" ARRRRRRROOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!! As the roar sounded like it was getting closer I tired searching for a weapon. As I found a ax under a body, I rushed to the body and went to move it but my arms went right through it. "Huh, what happened" As I tried again and again but the same thing happened. "What's going on? I can't touch anything?"
I looked to my left and saw a humanoid with wings and two horns pulled back on its head. As it came closer I stood up and stood waiting for it to attack. It kept walking more and more closer till it was staring down at me and I noticed it's skin was just scaled and the tail it had plus the claws on its hand was dripping blood. It stood at least a me and half of me taller.
"Hey scaley you look tough and want to fight '' I said smiling showing my thusks more. It just looked at me with its two flaming red eyes. "I know you are tall but at least say something before I make two axes with your horn- " Before I knew what happened it had its huge hand gripping my head and it was lifting me off the ground. I tried punching its arm but once again it went right through. "You got to be screwing with me '' It lifted me to eye level with it. "You orc are weak. I will show you and this world true power. The power of the True Dragon Kin Shandar Ulmathal. Now die tiny weak orc." Shandar spoke while sparks of fire came out with each word he spoke. Shandar then opened his mouth beyond what a human could, showed teeth the size of small daggers and in the back of his throat a ball of fire became bigger. A second later he released the fire engulfing me. "AAAAAGGGGGGGRRRRRRRRRH" I shoated as he continued to breathe more and more fire.
"AAGGHH" I yelled while opening my eyes in shock. Breathing heavily I checked my body to see I am compealty fine. "Did I just die to dragon's breath" I thought trying to think of what happened. I looked back to see that there are two lights but the red door is dark with no more heat.
"What is going on? Why am I still alive?" I started to make haste to the dark green feeling my body started to have more energy and gain more. "Life energy?" It felt like I was moving faster and the light was getting closer. Then it hit me, a wave of green energy which apon contact grew lumps and my body felt bigger. "This is different then the red light with that damn Half Dragon, I feel sick with this light"
I started to swim faster knowing that if I didn't I would die again. With each moment I got closer the bigger and more lumps that grew on my body made it hard to swim with lumps now growing on my joints. I started to get closer to getting a feel that the lumps are growing inside my body making me more sick. After making it to the door I wonder " Why am I doing all this? Do I even gain anything?Maybe it's just a challenge, yeah a challenge if it is then I will complete and crush whoever is at the end of this challenge." I touched the door hoping Shandar wasn't here.
I held my hand there thinking something would happen but nothing happened. "Is this thing broken?" I pulled back my hand but it was stuck. "Hey let go of my damn hand you door." As I pulled my hand even harder to try and rip it off I felt a strong pulling from the door. "My hand is not for you to take, door. Now let gooo" I did another strong pull which ended with the door beginning to slowly pull my whole body in.
" Hey I don't want to die like this. Stop Stop." I put my other hand on the door to push myself out but my hand just ended going in. I tried to feel if there was anything on the other side of the door but I couldn't feel my limbs.
This better be a damn forest and it better have good food and something strong to fight. I closed my eyes not wanting to see what happens in that door.
I opened my eyes to see that I am in a forest and saw that all the lumps have left my body and my body has become smaller. "This is the most confusing day of my life" I searched my surroundings seeing that I was just in a forest with very thick and tall trees and the sun was just rising. I smelled the air to check if I could track any scents. Only able to smell the clean air and not the burning ash of that human village or the empty void. I put my ear to the ground to hear if anything big was nearby, but after hearing nothing I went to the branch that was the ground. This could work well as a club, after picking it up I noticed how much this weighed more then it looked. "This will do a lot of damage" I thought, smiling of a battle that is soon to come.
I started to walk randomly till the sun was starting to set. "I wish there is a damn animal I am so hungry" I walked rubbing my belly. I should rest now and find meat to eat when I wake up. "Would a tree be the best place because I bet those branches can hold at least 10 of me."
I started to climb the thick bark of the tree to rest up for the night. "Why are these trees so tall? '' Finally making it to the top I start to wonder where I can find food in this damn forest. As nightfall soon came I started to doze off to sleep.
