Darkness
Within the darkness echoed hoof sounds.
Clop Clop Clop
A black horse walked in darkness, dragging a twisted strange being.
Drool trailed behind the being as the being tried to say something, but it didn't come out.
With each step the black horse took, the surrounding darkness grew a little brighter.
His vocals turned dark as every bit of the darkness that faded away was absorbed into the being's body, turning the being into darkness itself.
Crack
One bone cracked, stretching into its original shape, fixing the twisted being straight as every bone in the being shaped back into its original condition.
And like a puppet moved by strings, the being's body rose levitating above ground before lifting itself up.
Pure darkness took the strange being's body and the walking horse turned into chains running back to the being and tying the being down.
A battle ensued as the being resisted the chains fighting back.
The being swung its hand striking a chain that aimed to tie its hand.
But the chains came back in tens every time it was knocked away.
It was multiplying overpowering the being from all angles.
The chains wrapped around the being like threads of spiders wrapped on prey.
The being wriggled and wriggled but with every wriggle, it made the chains increase in numbers dragging the strange being down.
The glass-like ground opened up swallowing the being as it was being dragged down into its belly.
Up in the world, a green DNA Structure floated next to two pupils that reflected the rays of sunlight.
Shatter
After the being was swallowed by the ground the whole place brightened breaking apart like a glass.
Everything broke apart however the DNA structure and the two pupils stood floating in the empty space.
It became dark again.
Utter Darkness Like A Night With No Moon.
But two things remained in the world acting as the light...
Inside the pupils was like a window into another world.
Outside the window was a garden and tending to this garden was a woman.
The pupils could only see the back of this woman as she tended to the garden while singing.
"Wouldn't you say it's a beautiful day today young master?" Bringing a halt to her singing she asked a question.
Behind her set a young man or a teen, unclear as the face was covered with shadows.
"..."
"A good day indeed young master the sun is bright, the flowers are blooming, and the temperature is cool."
"..."
"Yes at first the clouds covered the sky making it look like a rainy day, but then all that cleared up as the rays of sunlight shined."
She moved around watering a black lily.
"You should remember this day young master... It is a day when black lilies bloom..." She paused caressing the black lily.
"So remember it remember this day in your darkest day young master."
"Flowers take every color in the world and bloom to reach heights that are beyond them..." Pausing she stood up walking in another direction but her back was still facing him.
Stolen from its original source, this story is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.
"They bring hope into the world and because of that young master..."
"..."
"...Hope will never disappear as it will wash away the darkness."
"Your day will come when you will bloom like this black lily, until then do not give into the darkness of disparity."
Boom
The garden blew as a strong suction appeared like a black hole sucking everything into the pupil windows.
The pupil windows closed off as everything that happened prior tracked back like time was moving backward.
Everything was moving back in time until...
There was nothing and then water streamed into the glass ground.
Splash… Clop Splash… Clop Splash… Clop Splash…
Hoof Sounds Echoed In The Water.
There was no darkness in the world and the black horse was being ridden by a young man with long hair down to his neck.
In one hand floated the DNA structure and in the other a black lily.
"Hope will wash away darkness just as you said my pearl..." The young man's mouth oped whispering those words.

A system notification rang in Rex's head making him open his eyes as groans of pain kicked in all over his body.
"What the?" Feeling uncomfortable he looked at his surrounding finding himself on the back of a strange creature.
He was riding on the back of a triceratops face down groaning in pain.
"How the heck am I alive?" Rex wondered, recalling how when the stampede of dinosaurs struck him he had been sent flying and passed out, but now waking up on a dinosaur's back he found himself alive.
Just what was going on?
To his confused question, the system assistant jumped in explaining what had occurred while he was out cold.
[After being hit, the host's bones twisted and broke as the body rolled on the ground, but then, as though the host was being pulled by something, the host's body moved, and that's when the host's body lifted up from the ground and then fell back and landed on the back of a dinosaur.]
“I don’t get any of that…” Rex shook his head not getting anything the system assistant said.
[Currently, this system assistant cannot disclose what happened to the host, but the survival of the host is related to the host’s subconscious.]
“And that is?” Rex asked feeling unconfirmable by the fact of something happening in his body while was unaware of it.
[Can not disclose it… besides shouldn’t the host be worrying about the current situation.]
“Yeah alright, but this is irritating me,” Rex said scratching the back of his head.
“So A-T what was the notification that woke me up about?”
As he held back a sigh, he shook his head, keeping silent since all that happened had been strange lately, so he just moved on to the positive things he'd expected he got from the system.
[There is good news.]
[Host has completed the quest.]
“Then show me what I got I want to go around punching with my new awesome superpowers.”
[Ding]
A green transparent panel appeared in front of his face and written on it was.
Dinosaur Base Function Space: Dinosaur Island Pasture 1x DNA Coins 100x
Market: Everything you need is here.
“Mmm… and I presume this is what I got from the system?” Rex stroked his none existent beard nodding his head sideways utterly disappointed.
[Yes this is the quest rewards does the host need A-T to explain what they are?]
“Yes please do…” Rex said holding in his groans.
[Dinosaur Island Pasture: An island where the host will be constructing and upgrading buildings while collecting, hatching, and evolving dinosaurs. As for the DNA coins they are meant to use in the market.]
After hearing that Rex thought really hard making plans in his mind.
“Say A-T will I be coming back here to do these quest missions?”
[Yes in fact host can establish Dinosaur Island Pasture here and can come to this place anytime.]
[Ding]
A new notification popped up issuing another system quest.
[New Quest Issued Quest Name Construction: Construct A Dinosaur Island Pasture In 30 Minutes.]
[Quest Rewards 1,000 DNA Coins.]
With a long face, Rex groaned saying, “Aaaaah, A-T you know that I’m dying right?”
[To be accurate host body is recovering and needs a few hours before coming back to peak again.]
“Sure, sure, and how will I be making this island though I won't work myself to death if this is how my life is gonna be about from now on rearing dinosaurs.”
[Simply point anywhere and the system will do the rest.]
"OK, then I choose here." After saying those words Rex waited some time hearing nothing happening making him question his system assistant about what was going on.
"A-T..." Before even saying what he wanted he heard something looking above.
It was dark and no lights illuminated the place as he was in the wild but hearing what was coming from above needed no lights as every dinosaur that was resting stood on its legs starting to run again in fear for its lives.
Breaking the clouds apart a huge island was descending like a meteorite and this scared the dinosaurs as something in their bones screamed extinction.
The sound of its descending sounded like tearing through the winds.
"Ahhhh, A-T you gonna kill me with that stop it..."
In spite of his inability to see what was coming, Rex screamed violently, terrified by one of the restless creatures running for its life and him sitting on top of it.
[Chuckle]
"Huh??" Rex heard something inwardly confusing him as a green light descended on him teleporting his body away.
