I exited the walls the people had build, looking back they had a strange glowing writing spanning the entire length of the wooden wall. I think they were called Runes. maybe if I put them on my gun my gun will be stronger? maybe but I don't write in runic yet. I continue walking until I start to see dark clouds in the distance that gives off a feeling of hopelessness and destruction just by looking at it. and I have to go to the centre of that through who knows what kind of monstrous demons from the dark side of hell.
"grenade" I said aloud trying to focus on how you make a grenade and sure enough one spawned into my hand, I tested it out and it worked like a grenade does. who would have thought? I prepare 4 grenades before I enter and a smoke grenade in case I need a quick escape from something. I also held onto my pitch black smith and wesson m&p 9mm and walked into the destroyed dark forest. as soon as my foot touched the ground void of life I saw something dart towards me, I shot it before it got close but on further inspection it was a squirrel, one with razors for teeth that look like they would cut through bone as easily as a hot knife through butter. its eyes were missing and it looked slightly demonic with its shape, almost like it was designed to kill.
I sighed and kept moving, as fast as a squirrel is it still isn't faster then a bullet. I kept my gun at the ready and my eyes focused like a hawk and my ears listening for any signs of life. sure enough every 5th step a squirrel jumped out at me, shot dead the moment one jumped out however I did not let my guard down, I was in a foreign world and assume I can't get back to my own unless I break all these orbs. go back to what? I don't know my self, I suppose I will just have to try and move on, eventually.
"GGRRRROOOOOOOOOoooo!!!!" I heard a loud roar from the distance that felt like it would tare me apart through pressure alone. I looked to where it came from and sure enough there was a dark beam being shot to the sky in that direction. if only I knew how to make a good sniper, to bad I guess. I walked further forwards towards the oblivion orb. I approach the orb and it is within sight, that is good thing. the giant monster squirrel that is the size of a truck and looks like a evil monster is not a good thing.
"GGRRRROOOOOOOOOoooo!!!!" the squirrel monster roared again, it did not look to have noticed me but I just had to...
"could you get a little louder, I think the people on the other end of the planet didn't hear you clearly enough" I said with a grin while preparing a grenade. the creature turned to me and a strange dark aura started to come off of it, it charged at me with lightening speed, I shot at it but I missed, I never thought this would happen. it was not faster then a bullet don't get me wrong, it was just faster then my finger could pull the trigger. it kept charging towards me and I threw my grenade, the idiotic thing just straight up ate the grenade, I jumped back as the creature exploded. or at least I thought it did. the creature was unharmed but looked angry once the smoke cleared.
"could you swallow like 4 more of those tasty exploding rocks?" I asked already planning my next course of action. the creature dashed around me and started to circle me, I summoned a land mine in front of the creature and another explosion rumbled through the air sending the ash littering the ground up into the air, while the creature was distracted I shot through the things head with a barrage of 10 bullets. it was simple enough, or it would have been if not for even without any brain the creature still stood up. how do you kill that thing?
"GGRRRRROOOO*BOOM*" as the creature roared I tossed the 3 remaining grenades I had from earlier in its mouth and sure enough it no longer had a head. I sighed with relief as I now turned around and walked over to the oblivion orb. after 3 steps I heard something fast approaching me from behind and I ducked beneath the giant squirrels claws. turning back it still had no head but it was still moving.
"Warious damn it, you couldn't have given me any more information on how this glove works?" I asked as I started trying to summon more weapons, but no, the only gun I could have was the smith and wesson m&p 9mm. I tried to modify it but all I could do was make it shoot slightly more powerful bullets and slightly faster rate of fire. did not help much when I am fighting a creature much faster then me and kill me in one hit. I kept avoiding to much damage by placing mines all around me and shooting the creature as soon as it was stunned from a mine. I guess that is all I could do. after repeating the pattern a few times I noticed it was not getting more hurt, its head was mostly regenerated. I had about enough and shot at the Oblivion Orb, wondering if it would do any good but the creature threw itself in the way of the bullets, I kept shooting and shooting but it was the purfect meat shield, I kept adding more power to the gun and learning a few more tricks with each shot, the accuracy was getting much better and the bullets were moving noticeably faster. I am more shocked I can keep up with the bullets though, looking around myself I have a strange aura around me, part of it is pure darkness and the other part is glowing white, ignoring that for now I was finally shooting through the bullet sponge and hit the Oblivion Orb.

"took long enough" I said while destroying the orb behind the creature. the orb got a small crack and then I felt a wave of screwed, I turned around just to see how screwed I was while still shooting at the orb, there was a small army of squirrels. I could shoot the squirrels however then the giant squirrel will tare my apart, but so will the squirrels if I do nothing. I then realised even with my gun hand being busy I still had a smoke bomb, I dropped the smoke bomb while walking forwards towards the giant squirrel, the smoke was no ordinary smoke, it was tear gas, when I was right next to the giant squirrel I stopped shooting for a moment and threw a grenade at the oblivion orb, the squirrel was about to attack me but froze and turned to see its blunder as the oblivion orb went up in smoke. the sky then started to clear and the giant squirrel did not vanish, why was I questioning this? because all other wild life did vanish and was replaced with normal creatures, the giant squirrel started to change, it changed into a human girl which my best guess would say my age, she was fully naked and had short brown hair. I just ignored her and walked away.
3.... 2..... 1...........? wait I could have sworn. "HEY!!! WHAT'S THE BIG IDEA? do you leave all innocent sleeping girls alone naked in the forest or is this a special occasion?" shouted the girl angrily as she stopped pretending to be asleep.
"I was told a guardian would be here, nobody else" I said simply and kept walking away, wait does that mean what I think it means?
"I am the guardian" she snapped back at me. "I am Olivia Burrows, a nature guardian unrivalled in power or beauty and...HEY WAIT!!!" Olivia started saying but I kept walking back on my way to the village. "Don't you understand what I am saying?" Olivia asked me with a serious tone as she walked in front of me with an angry face stretching her arms wout blocking my path.
"you were saying something?" I questioned with the best serious face I could muster. *Whack* Olivia hit me into a back flip and landing face down into the dirt. "sorry, sorry, but can you get some clothes on first if you want to talk" I said and she looked down and turned around red in the face as if she did not even realise herself.
"monster" Olivia said to me with an angry face. "first you save me and you expect me to believe you don't find me attractive? I am actually being nice here, most people would love the luxury of being around me" Olivia said with a smile.
"I have only known you for all of 5 minuets and can already say with certainty that the only reason you are resorting to someone you have not met before is because nobody else can stand you" I said in a monotone before continuing my walk back to the village.
"...shut up idiot" Olivia said to me as she walked off in her own little pout. she is annoying. "will you at least tell me the real reason, you saw my fully naked body and your heart beat did not change, that is not normal for teenagers like us" Olivia said with a curious tone. I stopped walking. again trying to repress bad memories and trauma.
"I saw the person I liked and the only person who even paid attention to me die in front of me and there was nothing I could do about it" I said with a blank face, Olivia was shocked but before she could say anything I was already walking off again. she then caught up within a second or so.
"I am sorry if I came off as insensitive then" Olivia mumbled. she looked off to one side like she had just been told off. oh well. "anyway for saving me I will repay what you have done for me. please allow me to go with you and help you destroy the rest of the oblivion orbs, with that divine glove we should have no problem" Olivia said making me look as her shocked slightly, how did she know it was a divine glove? it looks simple and plain. I will ask later.
"fine, I allow that much" I said simply as I continued with a light stroll across the newly formed grass. taking in the fresh air and looking towards the direction of the village. I still have to wonder, if this was an easy oblivion orb to destroy, what is a hard one?
