Waves.
Crashing.
Sand?
My head throbbed, but I sat down just fine. The fuck happened?
So bright. So… dramatically bright. Something bit me… “Just a crab?”
Sighing in relief, I threw the little sucker away and watched the grand sea behind me. Sea as far as the eyes could see. Blue as fuck. The sky too, blue. Yeah, I was finally out of the damn sea!
I checked my belongings and luckily, they were all here. Phew!
I no longer had those gill-like scales on my neck but I felt like I could just regrow them if I needed to; also, no cuts or wounds? Strange.
But that wasn’t a problem right now. The real problem was the bright and colorful as fuck jungle ahead of me. For two meters was only sand, a centimeter ahead… jungle.
Vibrant green leaves. Multiple colored flowers which varied in sizes; some were as big as my head and others, way bigger.
I hadn’t seen so much color in all of my fucking life, let alone in one setting. Were the trees having a party or something? A tingling sense roared in my mind. I didn’t know why but I had a bad feeling about this place. Are these things poisonous or something?
Wait, where even was I?
Is this the forbidden continent? No, everyone who knew about the place told me the place was underwater and infested with Sirens. So, the only other logical conclusion would be this place was a cursed island.
Didn’t feel like an island though. Felt a bit too big to an island.
Why?
I couldn’t see its fucking end.
“Better find out then,” I mumbled taking the first steps. My feet were wobbly and a bit textured. I’d spent far too much time in the ocean. Ah-ach-achhoo!
Alright Sol, time to find everyone. After I started a fire and dried my ass off first of course!

Took about an hour.

I’d walked for about ten minutes.
And then I had to stop. No, I didn’t have to stop because I was tired. Rather… there was something in front of me.
It looked humanoid; about a meter tall. Had a humanoid structure. But it didn’t have eyes. It had flowers on its face instead. Milky white with black stripes.
A rather exaggerated smile. It moving its lower end: Almost as though climaxing every second. Actually, it was leaking something from down there too.
Seemed like a man, but had no man bits. Had nothing there other than just one slit which was leaking something white.
I had a thought gnawing at the back of my mind for a while now. Blast the fucking thing to pieces. But I waited in case it was sentient and that was the norm in this place.
This was a new world. And There were plenty of things I didn’t know about. So maybe- so maybe I wasn’t going absolutely bonkers….
“Are you okay?” I ended up saying.
It smiled. Even wider, and pissed the white gunk everywhere, almost aiming at me while writhing in ecstasy.
I jumped back, and threw a water ball at it. It was now soaked. “Electrify!” I shouted for no particular reason and blasted it with electricity frying it in seconds. Damn things shriveled up like a mushroom.
My magic had gotten better…?
Why the fuck does it smell good? No, I was probably just hungry. I sure wasn’t going to eat this smoked mushroom though. Actually, I didn’t want to eat anything here. Not the fruits, not the flowers, and certainly not the colorful bugs.
Bugs?
The fuck?
The whole place swarmed in seconds and the things started devouring the fried mushroom man. Flies, beetles, other things… all were bigger than anything I was accustomed to. Some of the birds I saw earlier were actually fucking mosquitoes…. And was it me or was there a lady-bit-bug?
Fuck….
Aren’t I next? Once they were done…
I quickly ran for a clearing. But there was no clearing. The trees merely grew denser the further I ran.
The foliage thickened more and more!
“FUCK!” I unhooked the machete from my waist and chopped all the fucking foliage that came near me. And yes, these fucking things were sentient. The trees were sent-fucking-ient!
“Screw you, screw you all!” I swung around in haphazard fury, slicing all the vines, all the glowing butterflies and for a second- dread set in.
I’m being drugged.
The glittering shit they were spewing in the air… the white gunk from earlier… drugs.
I was sweating buckets, and burning out. Yet… yet my body went cold and I knew why I was so agitated.
Damn!
I already felt a burning in my loins. And yeah… this is how they get you.
And they’d already got me!
“Friendo, friendo,” something whispered.
I looked down almost instantaneously.
An eye on the ground.
“Holy fuck!” I nearly jumped.
“Shh! Come in, come in. Come in if you wanna live!”
A bit of space opened up on the ground. Something purple looked at me from within.
Think Sol, become a thing like that, or take a chance?
“Fuck…” I found myself whispering before my body slowly but surely dived in.

Guess which game I've been playing again... sigh
