Portals & Paths: The Nine Gems
Chapter 1: STORM The rain fell hard, in drops as large as mango nuts, pelting the deeply soaked woolen robes of five men as they moved with the storm. The hooded figures slithered through the sprouting shoots of rice as quickly as the tempest blew through the ancient wood, their bare feet barely sinking in the paddy’s soft mud. The man in lead turned his head to see the others following diligently in tow. A prominent nose caught dancing light from a disappearing moon as the dying rays ricocheted through thousands of crystal beads of water. The leader flicked a twisted finger toward the sky. There was a brief calm in the clamor as the group pressed on through the wet, swollen rice fields edging the wood.

Dimensional Traveler 03
Chapter 3: What the hell? (Where the fuck am I?) Part II Changes The first thing Mia noticed were the two sleek, black, triangular ears with white tips, on the top of her head. Two small hoop earrings, one red and the other blue, set pierced in the right ear near the tip, the ears that had resided on the side of her face were gone. Her once shoulder-length dark brown hair, was now jet black, flowing down to her waist, a silver streak running through the length of her hair, silver highlighted bangs dangling just above her long eyelashes.

DOG
CHARLES April 30, 2023 Well, I can tell you with certainty that this is not a dream. It has been roughly a week since I woke up and could not open my eyes, according to my calculations. Yesterday, I woke up and I was able to open my eyes. It was slow and they were a little sticky and at first only small slivers of light came in and I blinked a little bit and now I can tell you that my suspicions are confirmed. I am a dog. A very small dog, to be exact. I do not know how this happened, but these are the facts, I am sure about that. I am surrounded at all times by other very small dogs, some of which have opened their eyes and stare at me with confusion- rightfully so- and others still have not.
