Hi, guys! It's me again. I wanted to make this thread so everyone could see the progress of the CYStian history book and request some events to be added later in the game. The setup is like this:
Beginning (Chapter One, Part One-???) 1/??? Finished
Middle (???-???) 0/??? Finished
End (???-???) 0/??? Finished
So, I have the first page, which I'm going to go ahead and copy/paste here. The lucky cameos are Honeydusk842, Malk (no idea how to spell that :P), and ISentinelPenguinI. Congrats, you're featured :P
*************************************
Your face lay pressed against the glass, you half-asleep and the car puttering along. The soft leather seats beckon you towards rest, and you struggle to stay conscious. Suddenly, the car hits the brake, and your face pulls back and slams into the glass due to the sheer inertia. You rub your cheek and look out the window. The sun is shining, the sky is a beautiful cobalt blue, and the palm trees bend to and fro in the wind. Your eyes light up. You're finally here! After an hour on the street, you legs are awfully stiff. You click the release button for the seatbelt and open the door. The fresh sea air blows into the car as you toss a few dollars in the taxi driver's direction and slam the door shut. The small, antique, yellow car putters away as you look up at your new hotel. You extend your suitcase's handle and stride down the red velvet carpet, the glass doors only yards away. Suddenly, as you put one foot to the ground, a capybara leaps in your path.
He's wearing a gold necklace and an MLG cap, shouldering a rifle. He spits out a piece of tobacco into a nearby spittoon at the guard's station. You stare at the animal. This is incredulous! A capybara guard? You feel the need to laugh at the big hamster, but it quickly points the rifle at your chest. "Whatcha want, squid? Can't you see the hotel's closed?"
The capybara's beady eyes slice though your body, taking in your items: a wallet, watch, hotel coupon, a receipt.... You squint at the large rodent. "It's closed?" You ask innocently. You really hadn't known it was closed, so you weren't entirely lying.
The rodent emits an annoyed sigh as it lowers the rifle. "Alright, squirt. First warning. You don't want to mess with SenPen."
SenPen? Who the heck was SenPen? You walk off the lush carpet and sit down at a park bench. You google "SenPen" on the Internet, but nothing comes up other than a sequin-covered fountain pen. Frustrated, you sit at the park bench, no one sitting beside you. Suddenly, another taxi pulls up and another person, a girl with light hair and white garments, exits the vehicle. The capybara groans and points the rifle at the girl. "Didn't you hear what I told the other guy? Hotel's f***ing closed."
The girl is terrified, but she waddles awkwardly to the side and sits beside you. She looks up at the cobalt sky, her green eyes shining in the sunlight. She turns to you.
"Hi, I'm Honeydusk," she says, a smile parting her lips.
You feel your face flush. "I'm, uh, Squidling." You really hadn't thought of a name before you came here, so you just thought of something.
Honeydusk smiles gently. "Cool name. Matches your hair." She points out your jet-black hair and giggles a little. "So, you saw that capybara guy too?"
"Yeah, he's a little pushy and annoying, but I'm sure I'd like him. Seems like a nice guy when he's not on guard duty."
She smiles again. Why does she smile so much? "Yeah. I really like the fact that I'm not alone here whilst waiting for the hotel to open."
You don't know what to say.
