《Fear: Ever-Changing and Evolving》Chapter 3 - Familiar Contract?!
Advertisement
Suddenly, a glowing blue light enveloped me. Before I could even think, I found myself in a new location: A F***ING CAGE!!! I then saw who summoned me: it was a young girl!
She was wearing a beautiful blue dress with that went down to her ankles. She had pretty green eyes and light brown hair that reached her shoulders. She had a short stature, about 5'2", and appeared to be about 10 years old.
Judging from the way she is dressed, I think I can assume that she is a noble of some sort, perhaps even royalty! Oh, she's talking to someone. Hey, why do you look so scared? What is it?! IS THERE SOMETHING ON MH FACE?!?!
Wait...she's pointing at me a shaking...I'M SCARING HER??!
I suddenly notice that there is a mirror on the wall. Reflecting off of it is a horrifying sight: there's a HUGE snake with pitch black scales! It has creepy orange eyes and is giving off an faintly visible reddish purple aura, and it is AT LEAST 8 or 9 feet long! IS THAT ME?!?!
...I look badass...
YOU HAVE BEEN OFFERED THE NAME "FEAR": WOULD YOU LIKE TO ACCEPT THIS NAME? Y / N
YES!! That name is EXACTLY what I want!
NAME ACCEPTED: YOU HAVE FULFILLED THE REQUIREMENTS FOR EVOLUTION: THERE IS 1 PATH CURRENTLY AVAILABLE: BEGINNING EVOLUTION
I suddenly glow with a red light and my body begins to change. Surprisingly, it isn't painful this time!
Then it hit me...WHY AM I EVOLVING AGAIN?!?! ALL I DID WAS GET A NAME!!!
Screw it! I'll just roll with it!
*BOOOOOOOOMMM*
A massive shockwave emits from my body as the red light fades. I then look in the mirror again and I am shocked: I BECAME A FREAKIN' BASILISK!!! I then made the mistake of looking at my own eyes. Basilisks can kill with their eyes!

Crap.
I collapse to the ground, my life force beginning to drain, when I get a notification.
YOU HAVE BEEN OFFERED A FAMILIAR CONTRACT: THIS IS THE ONLY WAY TO STAY ALIVE. DO YOU ACCEPT? Y / N
YES YES YES YES!!! I CAN'T DIE YET!!!!
FAMILIAR CONTRACT ACCEPTED: YOU ARE NOW THE OFFICIAL FAMILIAR OF PRINCESS ALYSSA THORNSTRIKE
I feel myself coming back to life, ever so slowly. Once I have recovered, I noticed that the Princess and the man standing with her are staring at me in shock. The man tries to say something, but I don't understand him. Then, the Princess begins to talk, and I somehow understand her! Perhaps it's because of the familiar contract!
"Do you understand me?"
I nod my head.
The Princess gasps, and then calms down.
"Why did one as powerful as you accept the familiar contract of a failure like me?"
Huh? Failure? Seriously? Wait, one of her titles is seriously "Failure Princess"!
I speak back to her through the telepathy created by our contract.
"I didn't have a choice: I looked at my eyes in the reflection and nearly died."
The Princess's jaw drops, and she stares at me. She then starts laughing.
"What's so funny?!"
"I've never heard of a Basilisk nearly killing itself with it's own stare! Hahahahah!!"
Grrrr...this girl...WHY DID I HAVE TO BECOME A FAMILIAR!!!????

Beast
A threat to the galaxy has come from another, and the Union of intelligent life will go to any length to stop it. Military Quarantine has held for hundreds of thousands of cycles. Traders, merchants, colonists, and Pirates live risky lives along the fringes as the politics from the inner systems fail to see the larger threats beyond their borders. A lone human finds himself far from home with no memories to how he arrived. A failing Trade vessel plays on a desperate gamble, while a malicious parasite searches for a suitable host. ............................................. Author's note: Beast is a story that I wrote a long, long time ago. Some of you might have read it then, back when it was posted on reddit over at r/HFY. It was my first webfiction and made in the spirit of that subreddit's "genre" of humanity being awesome. But, it is also a story that has bothered me a little bit. Just like most new writers tend to do, I made mistakes and errors that feel painful to reread. A Space Opera will be a Space Opera, but I had prose that makes present-me cringe. Still, at the same time, the story is still very much a tale I've never given up on. It was my first adventure into fiction: Beast was a crazy adventure with bodysnatching aliens, galactic war, threats from across the universe... Posting this story here is a way to try and redeem myself a bit. I won't call it a complete rewrite, because it's not, but I have wanted to go through and correct some of the major issues Beast has for a long time and put it somewhere more accessible to read (instead of as posts/comments on reddit) and I figure that now is as good a time as any. Additional corrections you might notice are welcome.
