《Stonenanny》1.03 two sides of a coin (pre)
Advertisement
It was in the news tonight. Beware of the icy roads was in the background. A school bus headed downhill. The students were excited, it was their first ski trip and yet it became their last one. When the bus slipped in a turn and crashed into another car.
The guard rails were not strong enough. There was nothing to be done.
The two-vehicle joined as their passenger's faith, while gravity took the wheels as it was the only one who knows where they headed and led them for the one last time among the living.
Her eyes popped open, she sat up like her life depended on it and screamed. Like someone has woken up from a nightmare.
She stopped as the unfamiliar environment didn’t make sense to her. She was in a big white room and there was nothing else other than her as she looked around. She stood up and started looking at herself, no bruises, no bleeding, no pain what so ever. She relieved. Her fancy clothes were in their brand-new shape, her nails were perfect, and nothing seemed to be missing. Her attitude changed.
“Alright, enough of this I have a thigh schedule and I don’t have time for this nonsense.” She said in an arrogant tone. Nothing, nobody answered. “Heelloooooo!” A few seconds passed and she heard a yawn.
“I’m coming.” She turned toward the source of the sound and saw a black and purple guy in its hideous costume in the distance heading her way.
“Come on, hurry up! I have an appointment at 5 in the beauty salon and cost me extra to get someone else’s place.”
She just looked down to check the time, when she looked back, the figure was already right in front of her.
“Better?” Ask the faceless-one.
“Geez, don’t creep on me.” As she took a step back. “Now. First, where am I and where can I find a phone. My purse must be in the car so I need one for a call.”
Arrogant and demanding. This was by far not the best combination to talk to someone let alone someone which people named the mad god.
“Oh, your highness I don’t think you will need a phone, it’s not popular among the dead to call the living where you came from.” He said mockingly as he did a light bow and a hand gesture.

“Yeah, whatever. So, where is the phone?”
“Look, just to get the picture before I lose it, it’s your first time and I played nice. You have died, this is my domain and I make the rules here.” She didn’t pay attention, she was too busy with her nails.
“Ah, this room is too bright I can barely see the new nail polish and I am pretty sure this much light is not healthy for my skin. I am in a hurry, but just for you, I going to ask kindly. Could you show me where is the exit?”
He lost it. “Of course, it is right behind you.” She slowly turned around. A few feet away from her stood a grand door by its side carved wooden beams each with vines and colourful flowers. The door itself looked ancient but in top condition. The engravings made it look like a piece of nature itself.
“See, it wasn’t that hard.” She headed towards the door as she pulled her fingers through her long blond hair in a proudful way. The door was surprisingly light despite its size.
“Say hello to Dahlia in my name. And just a tip, you may want to watch your manner in the near future.” He said as the door closed behind the girl. He was well aware of what going to happen and it made the mad god smile.
“Now, since I’m up, it’s time for the next one.” With a snap of his fingers, the door vanished and a young skinny girl appeared there instead.
“I welcome you outsider to my domain!” Said it with his newly found great mood.
The lean girl slowly turned around. She was scared.
“May I ask for your name, young lady?”
“Tia” She said it quietly. “My name is Tia.”
“Say Tia, my name is Tia what brought you here?” He did a wide spin with both hands in the air.
“I don’t… I don’t know. I was on a bus a moment ago, I was speaking with Cleo and then...” She tried but she couldn’t remember.
“Don’t worry, it doesn’t matter anymore.” Said it with a calm tone, then change back to the wide gestures. “I, the god of change give you a second chance in life to born anew in our world, and fight and grow until ‘the day’ comes.”

“I’m sorry, I don’t get it.”
“Ah…” His mood was ruined again. No matter what he always had to explain everything, no wonder the other gods left the ‘new guy’ to suffer from this. “Please, listen. You died. I’m a god and this dice will help you get a new life.” As he pulled a dice out from his back and pushed it into her hand.
“But… But I can’t be dead, I feel fine! And I just got my chance for real this time to hang out with a cool girl on the bus. And after I helped them with the homework, Sabry was going to show me a few tips about how to gain a little weight and make my chest look bigger.” Her voice was despaired and not because of his presence. He was not sure which part did, but it made his gentle flames flicker. “We would have so much fun together.” She was on the verge of crying.
“Oh, huh… I don’t want to look pushy, but how many times did you try joining them?”
“Well, there was a few times in the summer break, and before Abby’s birthday…” The list went on for a while.” … But sometimes like Halloween, we did hang out, unfortunately, last time I had to carry the bags since their arms hurt after some cheerleader’s practice, but it was for real this time.” He heard enough.
“So, it still all comes down to beauty.” He made a statement. “Say, how about I introduce you to someone who can solve your figure?”
“It would be really nice, but I don’t have much left, after renting the ski equipment for the four of us.” His flames flickered again.
“Don’t worry, its free of charge. Not like you could use your money anyway.” He put a hand on Tia’s shoulder and slowly turn her around. She couldn’t believe her eyes. The door towards Dahlia was a masterpiece by nature. “But you have to promise me one thing. Don’t be scared and show respect to Dahlia. If you do that, she will help you out. Okay?” He led her towards the door.
“I can do that.” Her eyes were still a little red, but now she was smiling.
The door open before them. “And one more thing, don’t be surprised, but she is big.”
It was nothing like Tia ever seen before the view was breathtaking. A towering oddly shaped round cliff with two waterfalls with a few trees at the top, a pond breath with clear water which sparkled as the falling water filled it. The fruitful trees and greenery, exotic never seen flowers as far the eye could see around this sanctuary. The place was filled with animals running around and drinking from the water. And there she was, Dahlia.
Tia had to look twice before she realized what she was looking at. A pair of brown hoofed leg hanged out of the water each as big and thick as redwoods. And in the pond, someone was sitting. The water only could hide so little as it only reached to her very pregnant looking belly that filled a fair bit of her lap. Tia followed the being with her eye and saw the rest of the mother like figure. Her round overfilled looking breasts continually leaked which seemed as waterfalls a second ago, rested on top of her grandiose middle while they mostly kept their shape. Vines hung from her head covering a little from her chest. She had two horns made from flourishing trees, and her head was closer to a cow’s one than to a human. Overall Dahlia was colossal in size and not just in one way.
“I have sent back that girl shaped monster you just gifted me with.” Said the giant, while she covered her eye with a hand.
“Sorry about that.” He said it with a wide grin. “It was a mistake on my part, this is one that I meant to send for your blessing.” He pushed Tia a little forward.
“Sign….” A sudden breeze swept through the forest. ”Fine. But she better be grateful for it.”
“I’m sure she will.” Then he vanished in a puff of smoke. Leaving Tia within the company of mother nature.
