A glowing stone, like cooling glass, floated inches above the pedestal it had once rested upon. An amber and lilac fluid swirled slowly within.

A woman with frizzed, brown hair that was bleached blonde at the ends stirred as she lay on the floor.

The lab was in ruins around her, with only the containment room appearing to still be mostly intact. The metal door frame that had sealed the only entrance to this chamber creaked and groaned as it strained to remain attached to its foundation.

Beyond that there was only the In-Between.

Brown eyes opened and as they moved to behold their surroundings they saw what no mortal eyes were meant to see.

The endless colors of the raw vastness of the infinity between infinities pressed around her.

The experimental core pulsed, then dimmed.

A screech of metal pulled the woman's gaze to the door frame as it was wrenched away. Its foundation following shortly after.

The floating crystal pulsed again, weaker.

The crumbling of the floor crawled towards the woman as the In-Between hungrily clawed for her.

Adrenaline pulsed through the woman.

She jumped to her feet and pressed up against the pedestal.

Her hair, free from its usual tight bun brushed against the core. Energy jumped to her body shocking her. She staggered away from the stone, but the shock had instilled within her a sense of what needed to be done.

The core was directionless. It drifted aimlessly through the infinities. It pulsed once more, weaker still, and the woman was left with only the pedestal and its foundation stones to cling to.

Without any time to think, she grabbed the glowing stone in her hands. If it would protect her, then she would guide it.

The energy raced through her, the captive warp inside shrieking through her to connect to the infinity she sought to flee.

Visions of a million worlds. She heard their beginnings and their burnings. Tasted their never-ending hope while smelling their screams of inevitable agony. Whenever she felt the light of a peaceful world brush against her form, a ray of hope to turn to, she looked for it only to find amongst the light a supernova of horrors awaited there.

Just as aimless as the core she had grabbed she was dragged through the In-Between, as a tiny needle being dragged through the endless epidermis of a giant tree.

As the seconds of eternity passed, threatening to shatter her mind, and the hungry claws of incarnate immaterial strained to pull her grasp from the stone she clung to for dear life, she felt a scar. A freshly healed crack in the fabric of reality that itched in the space between her shoulder blades.

She turned to it and tasted laughter leaking through it.

She reached for it, pushed for it, clung to it with every fiber of sanity she retained. Closer, as she drew closer she felt as though her form would be cleaved in two, as if the scar would shatter her. The laughter now was all she tasted, and should she shatter for one last moment of laughter she would.

Then there was an eye.

A massive orb of turquoise light stared into her and she stared into the crosshair slit of the gazing gate before her.

"WHO ARE YOU?"

"help me...please..."

She pulsed weakly, hope and weariness cutting her warped adrenaline. Her core shuddered as it struggled to maintain her form. She stumbled and fell, held aloft only by the stone she clung to.

The black crosshair amidst the glowing orb opened, widening into a vast darkness beyond. The first darkness the woman had seen in all those seconds of eternity. With all she had left she limped towards it.

Tendrils of darkness emerged from within the eye. Soft as shadows, and swift as a cat's tail they wrapped around her and pulled her through the gate.

Then there was darkness. Then there was calm. No more piercing horrors, no more sweet taste of hope. No more nameless colors swirling across her skin, nor anymore immaterial claws tearing at her soul. Her eyes saw only darkness, and her mind knew only peace.

The core pulsed one final time, then failed, falling heavy in her hands. She let it fall, let herself fall, and gave herself to the darkness of sleep.

The sound of a skull cracking against wood paneling jolted her awake, and pain followed.

She curled up, cradling her aching head. She blinked slowly, warm lamp light filling her vision.

A shadow blocked the light, and a pair of glowing eyes gazed into hers. The crosshair pupils focusing on her before expanding into a star-like shape. A pointed, feline ear flicked as the woman's vision focused on the cat-like creature.

"Good evening."

A smooth voice flowed into her head.

"If you are feeling lucid once more, may I once again inquire after your name?"

The woman propped herself up on an elbow and stared into the cat's eyes.

"Ummm... my name's Aluzia."

The cat nodded

"And how did you come into possession of a piece of crystallized warp?"

Aluzia stared at the apparently inert glass object sitting a few inches away from her.

"I...I made it."

"Fascinating."

Inktober 4: Exotic

Twin suns beat down on a worn wooden structure that stood on a glittering concrete grey beach.

A faded sign creeked as it swung in a gentle breeze.

Purple and gold lettering named the structure for any passerby; The Astral Cat Cabana. A black cat wearing a straw hat and holding a stone bowl with a metal straw and paper umbrella in it had been painted to be laying underneath the letters as if the sign was its hammock.

A kaleidoscope of colorful lights flashed from within the building. A variety of voices followed.

The door banged open as a woman with black hair threw it open and stepped into the sunslight. An exclamation of wonder was followed by the long whistle of a second woman leaving the building.

The two women chittered to each other as they rushed to the edge of the beach. Their steps making little noise as the grey land shifted beneath their feet like cotton candy.

Wonderous grins split their faces as they stared out over the gaseous blue expanse. Their sundresses, flowing layered whites and yellow with red and green embroidery, respectively, billowed in the breeze.

A tanned olive-skinned man stooped slightly to exit next, a flotation device seemingly made of cloud and held together by glowing red runes under one arm, and a folding chair under the other. The breeze caught his black and red robe as he stepped into the suns, revealing numerous pale battle scars that traced down his neck and chest.

He unfolded the chair, setting it down into the cotton-like sand beneath. He placed his robe on the chair and shoes underneath it, then wearing a swimsuit that matched his robes strode confidently past the women and into the argon sea.

When he was about waist deep he rested the enchanted ring of clouds atop the ebbing, etherial fluid, then sat in the ring. Drifting atop the swirling gaseous waves the man settled in and released a sigh of calm.

A white-haired man opened the tiki bar's shuttered window, and a purple twin-tailed cat lept onto the bar top. In the back of the building, an ebony skinned woman sorted through cupboards and coolers. Shadowy appendages flowed around her, putting things where she wanted.

"Kiuxa! Don't forget your clouds!" The white haired man called out to the black haired woman, holding up a pair of smaller enchanted cloud rings.

Kiuxa turned and ran back to the tiki bar to grab the flotation rings through the window.

"Thanks Adelon,"

She put the rings on her biceps which had been getting more defined recently. Now much healthier and happier then she had been when Adelon had found her in the forest, her broader form had begun to fill out her dress better and pearlescent blue streaks were starting to appear in her hair.

Her flotation devices secure she began to remove her sundress. Her sleeves caught against the rings as in her haste she hadn't realized she would need to strip to her bathing suit before attaching the rings.

Having now understood this she quickly corrected things.

Rings off, dress off, shoes off, rings back on.

She dashed to the edge of the sea in her blue and white-polka-dotted bikini, the runed clouds billowing around her arms. She stuck her feet in and watched with amazement as the glowing, partially transparent, semi-fluid flowed around her ankles. She reached down and splashed some of the fluid into the air, where it instantly became glittering vapor and drifted a distance before returning to the sea.

The other woman kicked the argonic liquid, splashing it towards Kiuxa, and covering her in the luminescent spray.

"Aluzia!" Kiuxa shrieked, then laughed and began reaching down to heave waves at her attacker.

Aluzia cackled and kicked back as she tried to shield her face from the showering mist. Her red and yellow striped two-piece was quickly covered in glowing blue droplets, and the burnt blonde tips of her hair were beginning to soak up the color of the argonic fluid.

The cat chuckled, bemused by the joy of his compatriots. He stretched, and yawned and settled into a loaf on the counter top. The sounds of cracking stone and a drink shaker came from within the bar, and he watched Adelon carry the rest of the folding chairs out onto the beach front, along with a bag full of beach supplies.

Lucy Belle placed a drink next to Naut, another was held in her hand, and another was carried by her swirling shadows.

The drink was a mixture of clearer alcohols and citrus fruits that had been poured into one of the local geodes. Hollow stones that could be filled with crystals that were a wide assortment of colors and sugary flavors.

Blues, greens, and yellows glowed through the alcohol in Naut's geode, releasing both colorant and sugar as the alcohol slowly melted the crystals within. Lucy Belle had garnished the drink with a little umbrella and had provided a straw for the cat.

Naut's tails moved the drink closer and held the straw in place while he took a long sip. He purred.

Adelon approached the bar,

"Is one of those for me?"

The drink held by shadows was floated out to his outreached hand.

"Many thanks."

Lucy Belle swirled her drink and breathed in the fumes that rose from it, having no need to drink herself. With the other hand she swung herself through the window and called to those playing in the sea. As the sun hit her black dress it lit up, glowing as if she had wrapped the milky way around her body into a one shoulder gown.

"I know y'all didn't jump right in without puttin' some sunscreen on!"

Her shadows pulled a bottle of 125 SPF sunscreen from the beach bag.

Kiuxa stopped splashing and hurried over, looking like a scolded puppy, to receive the lotion.

Aluzia sauntered over and pulled a different bottle from the bag. This one, in a flexible clear bottle, had a homemade label with the word 'Sunkiss' scrawled onto it.

Lucy Belle shook her head, "if you're gon'a use one of yer potions, put it on over there," she pointed away from the building.

The latina tsked, "This one is perfectly stable, it won't explode."

She popped the lid open while staring pointedly at Lucy Belle. After nothing happened she raised her eyebrows as if to say 'see?' Aluzia poured the honey-like oil into her hand and tried to hide her relief as it remained unexploded, even after being exposed to the alien atmosphere.

Adelon approached as the two women applied their respective lotions to their skin, and received his own dose from Lucy Belle.

"W! You need some too!"

The floating man held a hand up to show he had heard, then slowly began his return to shore.

"I'll just leave it on the chair, and im leaving you a drink too!"

A nod and call of appreciation answered. A fourth drink emerged from her shadows and rested next to the sunscreen bottle on W's beach chair.

Lucy Belle returned to the bar with Adelon. The cat raised its drink to the two.

"To a well earned vacation."

The two lifted their geodes to touch them to the cat's, "To a well earned vacation."

Kiuxa cannonballed into the waves.

W, now sunscreened, relaxed in his larger ring. Drifting with his drink in hand.

Aluzia settled into a beach chair, now equipped with sunglasses and a large yellow sunhat.

The sign creaked as it shifted in the breeze, and the argon waves lapped against the concrete-cotton shore.

A pair of large six-flippered skywhales breached from below the glowing waves, their bodies silouetthing against the horizon. They sprayed a red mist before disappearing back in the ethereal depths.

The twin suns gazed warmly down upon the happy troupe that had emerged from the tired building, bringing it to life once more.
