Chapter 0: Go Outside for Once

A mysterious entity sat in his room, illuminated only by a small lightbulb. He was reading a book about human anatomy, sitting in his brown chair. In the black void where the walls should be hangs a picture of himself. He looks just like the walls; total darkness.

"Humans sure are strange." he thought to himself.

He put down his book and picked up another one about human nature and psyche. After looking at the cover for 8 seconds, he had an idea.

"Maybe if I stop reading here like I've been doing all these years and actually do something productive in my life, I'll be proud of myself." he thought to himself again. "I think watching grass grow would be more exciting than this. I should go outside for once. That's what my mama used to say. Or I think she was my mama, heck if I know; she was a black void just like me. Anyways, maybe I should experiment with humans, to see how they act. Maybe if I put them someplace together..."

"AUNT! I NEED HUMANS! AND THAT HOUSE OF YOURS YOU NEVER GO TO!" the mysterious entity suddenly shouted.

"Ugh, why do I have to do everything for you?!" she said. "Your mom spoiled you too much, young man. I'm not like her. Go do that yourself. Here's the keys for the house. NEVER ASK ME ANYTHING AGAIN."

"Alright, alright, I'll go."

The mysterious entity had never been outside his house before. When he saw the human world, he couldn't believe his eyes. He couldn't feel them, either. The sun was too bright.

He decided to look for humans himself. He phased right through the doors of an apartment complex and entered the elevator. He pressed a random button and it took him to floor 11. He decided to take every human in that floor, and started absorbing them, to release them later when he gets to the house.

After opening the door of the house (which was more of a mansion, with its fancy 6 floors and everything), he proceeded to build a brick wall around the door from bricks he absorbed while he was passing a construction site. After sealing the door for good, he proceeded to become one with the roof of the house and started expelling out the humans he had absorbed.

The first was Zinx, a female, small, purple-haired human. She was wearing a black t-shirt with a cartoony skull on it and some blue pants. After analyzing her surroundings, she started to nervously stutter. Like, really stutter. The mysterious entity thought the stuttering was natural in humans, but he quickly remembered all the books he read and they said nothing about stuttering. It was just Zinx.

"W-w-what? Where a-am I? Is t-this a mansion?" she said.

"Yes. Owned by guy named 'Shit Sherlock', first name 'No'." said a scaly red figure.

His name was Wyved. He looked weird, nothing like the mysterious entity or Zinx had ever seen. Soon though, they realized he was some sort of dragon. A real one. An antropomorphic, red, green-eyed dragon with a blue hoodie. They both failed to find the logic in this, and stared in awe.

"Oh, are you shocked because of my appearance? You're the one who has purple eyes, you know." said Wyved.
