《The Sleeping Immortal》Chapter 16 - Failure
Advertisement
As Fiend Yuki was traveling towards his body, just derping along with no real purpose because this was literally all he could do. He suddenly face planted into the ground, and for some odd reason just kept going further and further into the ground.
When he finally did stop going any further Fiend Yuki looked around and saw nothing other than him being in a Fiend Yuki sized pit around 10feet under.
Bewildered Fiend Yuki wiggled around till he could stand up which was harder than he thought due to the hole being in his shape making it hard to maneuver. Feeling himself all over with question marks for eyes looking for just ONE reason, JUST ONE why he just did not feel any pain whatsoever when he created this hole when he did a mega fail trip.
Chalking it up to him being technically still asleep, Fiend Yuki hopped up to the hole, but just barely undershot it, landing half outside half in. ‘oof’
Only to slowly slip back into the hole. As Fiend Yuki was just about to fall back in.
*SPLAT* *THUD*
Something splatted right into his face, forcing Fiend Yuki back into the hole. Slow reaching up his hand to run whatever it was out of his face, as he touched it whatever it was felt warm, and gooey. As Fiend Yuki raised his hand to eye level to look at it. Only for his eyes to widen and an inhuman shrill scream to tear out of his throat. “AHHHH WHAT THE HELL THREW SHIT AT ME!”
Unable to control his strength from his rage at getting shit thrown at his face, Fiend Yuki jumped full force out of the hole, sky rocketing an extra 20 feet about it. As he was thinking of how to torture and kill what threw poop at him, Fiend Yuki overlooked one small detail. The landing.

As Fiend Yuki was approaching the ground he didn’t even bother looking at where he’d land but just searched for his prey.
As his toes touched the ground his knees buckled and Fiend Yuki lost his balance causing his arms to windmill and him to fall backwards.. Back into the very hole he just jumped out of.
Falling backwards, and he landing, the only thing that went into the hole was his butt causing Fiend Yuki to look a V with both his feet pointed towards the sky, and his face nearly kissing his knees if he’d stretch farther.
That was when, whatever threw poop at him appeared. It was for all intents and purposes appeared to be a monkey that had fist sized eyes that looked like swirls, shaggy hair that blended into the background, needle like claws on its small almost baby like hands that stretched out for a good 8 inches, and had a mouth full of razor sharp teeth.
Its sudden appearance started Fiend Yuki that he did actually kiss his knees, causing him to slide even further down the hole which made only the top of feet visible above it.
Which only server to make the weird monkey make a “GEE GEE GEE GEE” sound, only further infuriating the shit cover faced Fiend Yuki. Because… the monkey was laughing at him.
Then the monkey struck. It lept towards Fiend Yuki’s exposed feel, jabbing down with its needle like claws which glimmered causing them to move in a weird untrackable way. As the needle like claws stuck Fiend Yuki head the only sound it made was a
*TING* *SNAP*
Because as the needle like claws hit Fiend Yuki, not only did they not hard him and bounce off, but since the monkey stuck with such force and its claws are so delicate compared to Fiend Yuki’s impervious sleeping body the only outcome was that those needle claws on the monkeys hands to snap like brittle pottery. Causing the monkey to “SKREEEEEEEEEEE” hopping away and high tailing away from Fiend Yuki’s stuck body.

Wiggling himself up slowly from the hole, Fiend Yuki was finally out and free. Was he happy? FUCK NO is all that he’d reply.
With anger and rage at the monkey that threw poop on him, Fiend Yuki continued his journey to get back to where his body was, when suddenly. *PING*
He got a notification from the system.
