Mous-teria

An innocent young giant rodent. Running at its top speed or fastest since born while panting heavily. Its body is tired and mind is dizzy but it can’t stop or else it would be caught and killed by the creature that ran with two legs. It is scared and sad because the creature chasing after it had killed its mother and father just few minutes ago.

“Why must those scary monster attack us? Why is this world so cruel?’’

“Cant we live happily together eating fragrant plants?”

It ask in its heart.

“I don’t want to die. I am still young. I want to mate with the Gigant Mouse nearby in the future to make my parents proud”

Gigant Mouse: race of a giant mouse live in the forest. In average has the height of half an adult. Herbivore and weak.

Suddenly it remember of a place in the direction it’s heading towards. A dangerous place in the surrounding it know of.

“I must escape! Hope the scary creature won’t dare to enter that place. Hope that scary monsters won’t appear.”

Roger Hamingdel

He is a hunter with some experience but had no potential. Today is a usual day, where he team up with his bestfriend to hunt for their monthly food supply.

“Jerry, faster!! No time for lovie dovie with your wife. The sun will be right on top of our head do not hurry.”

“Yes yes, coming.” Jericho lazily replied.

Half an hour later. Near their village is a huge forest which stretches for hundreds of kilometres.

“Roger, can you not interrupt my time with my cute baby. I know you are jealous”

“Like I will, cheh”

“Hehe, don’t pretend old virgin, perverted old man” tease Jericho.

Roger angrily glared at Jericho but he actually did not take offense. This is their usual conversation. As villagers their life is unchanging and boring.

In this world only the strong can have an exciting life. There are those that attack by monster or life full of suffering that is exciting in some sense but no one hope for them so instead they prefer boring life.

“Okay okay, lets not talk nonsense and be on alert”

“Yeah, hopefully our hunt is bountiful today or we must return another day”.

On the way searching for wild animals in the Great forest of Alkis, they pick up and pluck wild vegetables, mushrooms, herbs and fruits. Their movement are slow and quiet to reduce alerting any nearby wild animals.

Suddenly the Jericho saw a family of Gigant Mouse while picking mushroom behind a tree. He quickly signal to Roger with some hand signal since they work together normally. Roger understand that they will shoot the pair of adult first and Roger will chase after the small one because moving target is hard to hit. He will finish it of by a dagger.

After the two shoot down the Giant Mouse couple, Roger quickly chase after the small one while Jericho dismantle their harvest. While chasing after the small one Roger quickly notice that something is off. Why is he not able to close up the gap quickly?

Normally he would be able to catch up to this type of wild animal easily even it’s an adult. He quickly analyse his prey.

“Darn it, a variant. Can’t let it escape!!”

In this world there are variant or mutation of each creature like human has genius or born with high future potential such as hero. For animal or monster it will be easier to notice sometimes such this gigant mouse with it’s fur more shiny than normal and tail that looks dangerously sharp. Variant or mutant animal or monster usually comes with higher intelligent than the normal ones and they can remember their enemies. There are tales where variant monster take revenge by seeking out their enemies in villages or ambushing enemy that returns.

“Ahhh, why is it so fast. If this goes on then it will run toward that place” Roger looks ahead of the gigant mouse toward the other side of the forest, Plain of Despair.

After some time had passed, the surrounding grew brighter as both of them is close to leaving the forest. Both of them are very anxious. This is too much as they are betting their life on it already.

Roger must finish of the variant of or it will come and kill a lot of villagers just outside of the forest. Humanity is a very weak race in this world. They must help each other especially the one that they grew up with.

Mous-teria is running for its life. Front of it is a gamble but back of it is a certain death. There is no choice is there. Mousteria quickly run into the entrance of Plain of Despair out of Great forest of Alkis.

“Finally!! Hope that scary creature will give up” it thinks but did not dare to look back. Only depending on its sense of hearing.

Now Roger is full of despair and anxiety.

“Noooooo, it enter that place. Should I give up?” sweat is pouring like rains in tropical forest of certain world.

The name Plain of Despair keep appearing in his mind. After 500metres away from the forest his movement starts to slow down. He gave up and wanted to turn around. Before he could.

SUDDENLY!!!

The sky turn dark like it was swallowed by the darkness of void. Everything is silent, only for...

“Ahhhh!!!!!”

“Chiķkkk!!!”

Both the creature eye turn blind and got scared. “What happened??” appear simultaneously in the mind.

Few breath later. They heard a loud “boom” and the earth shake so hard that the man fell. It was like the end of the world. Suddenly a blinding light appear before the eye that fell from the sky in a straight in the middle of darkness. Behind the light can vaguely outline a enormous structure that extend into the sky like tower without end. A silhouette is slowly descending from the sky inside the light until the ground in front of them.

Their heart stopped and their mind blank. They have no word or term to describe the situation or the creature or the building behind it.

The creature is made of light of pure white with a human outline. It open its eyes and still white in it. Everything of it is white light. It looks toward them for a second and turn to look around it. After a while, it turns and walk into the magnificent structure.

If this happen in a certain world , people will think that the god descend but not in this world. To them it seems bizarre and could not describe the situation.
