The view of darkness looms over a forest far and away from any civilization as a ripple slowly spreads out in the middle of the forest.

At the epicenter of the ripple is a tiny crack. This crack isn't naturally occurring nor is it anywhere close to the ground. If you were to look close enough you'd realize that it is floating above the forest ground about 5 feet or so, about the height of an adult human.

Slowly that crack begins to grow larger, reaching closer and closer to the ground as if it was something falling.

Howls and loud sounds of roars are heard in the forest as the ripple from the crack in space spread out a power not belonging to this world across the forest.

As a second ripple happens from the crack sounds of bushes nearby rustling can be heard.

Something was getting closer.

And all of a sudden as if a pause button was hit on reality, everything stopped.

The wind stopped blowing, the grass stopped swaying and the bushes stopped rustling.

If you spot this tale on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.

But what didn't stop was the crack. It was as if someone hit it with a hammer as the crack sudden shattered into a large hole.

In that hole was what seemed like a black abyss, you could see the twinkling of what seemed to be stars but at the same time weren't. The beauty of the void was so captivating that anything that saw it might have lost their souls to the void.

Yet.  Yet it didn't act as it should have. Instead of sucking souls in, it managed to spit one out.

At that moment that seemed like an instant, a bright flash was emitted from the space crack.

What appeared from the crack could only have been considered heaven-defying. A human male laid on the ground, completely unharmed. Yet something about this person was different. It was as if the world itself formed a thin barrier around him, but that disappeared as quickly as it appeared leaving the human unscathed.

The person twitches lightly, and suddenly the world is in full motion again. Causing the person to land with a light thud.

Slowly the eyes of the person open into a small slit. The human was more of a boy around the age of 16, with grey eyes that get unveiled as he opens his eyes. The boy has long lashes and a facial expression that would have been called feminine by any person that could have seen him at the time.

As his eyes flutter open he flusteredly tries to sit himself up misplacing his hands once or twice causing him to slip back over.

As he regains his balance and stands up and looks around he can only stare in awe. After rubbing his eyes once or twice he falls back on his butt in disbelief.

Taking a moment before he opens his mouth.

"What have I gotten myself into…"
