Lattice Stemly’s Story 5/5

Chapter 5: Home

    You feel something on your shoulder gently shaking you and you wake up.  You see Klaymen standing next to you, smiling.

    “Good morning, seedling!” he says quietly.  He kisses your brow and helps you stand up.  “Did you have a good sleep?” You shrug and hug the blanket a little more.  He hugs you and pats your head. “I guess the blanket helped out a bit, huh Lattice?” Lattice? Why did he call you Lattice? You look at him confused and his expression changes to shock.  

    “Oops!” He lets go of you and covers his mouth.  “Sorry La- er... s-seedling! I was talking with Hoborg earlier and called you that while we were discussing names.  I should've waited until you're better at talking.”

    Names? He did talk about it when you first emerged, but you didn't think about it once in the time you've been alive.  Lattice... that's a nice name, but you don't want Klaymen to bad about naming you. Maybe you can add another part to it? Yeah! You can have a second name like Willie Trombone! You sound out “Lattice” over and over, all while thinking of a second part to your name.  You look at your stems (which are still there, thank goodness!) and figure you can come up with something temporary.  It's a second name, it's not as important as the main one.  You start sounding out your new name.

    “Lat...t...tice.........Stem.........ly.” you say.  Klaymen looks at you confused.

    “You want your name to be 'Stemly'?” he asks.  You shake your head and try again.

    “L-Lattice.....Stemly.” you say again.  You're surprised that you said it as well as you did.  Klaymen's eyes widen as he begins to understand.

    “You want your name to be 'Lattice Stemly'?” he asks again.  You nod.  You feel confidant about talking now, so you decide to introduce yourself.

    “M......my..........n-n-name.........is.........La...Lattice...Stemly.” you say, then start laughing in surprise.  Klaymen gasps, then starts smiling the biggest smile you've ever seen.  He then gives you a hug so strong that he lifts you off your legs and swings you back and forth; you're both laughing uncontrollably.

    “Your first sentence!” he cheers, his voice is quivering as if he's about to cry.  He sets you back on the ground.  “Oh, Lattice! I'm so proud of you! This is wonderful!” Klaymen starts weeping and laughing at the same time and you help wipe away his tears with your blanket.  You kind of feel like crying too, even though you're incredibly happy.  You're actually talking! Okay, it's just a sentence, but it's a start!

    You see Willie and Hoborg enter the room as Klaymen stops crying.

    “Good morning, you two!” Hoborg greets with a chuckle.  “And how are you today?”

    “Amazingly!” Klaymen exclaimed.  He pats your shoulder.  “You want to show him?” You nod and turn to Hoborg.

    “M-my naaame... is... Lattice Stemly!” Hoborg claps and gives you a hug, and Willie hoots and hollars in excitement, jumping up and down and almost dropping a basket that he's carrying.

    “Well done, little one!” Hoborg laughs and pats your head.

    “GIRLIE TALKIE!” Willie yells.  Hoborg lets go of you and Willie rushes over to hug you as well.  “Me knew you could do it!” His excitement almost crushes you and you struggle to breath.  Hoborg tells Willie to loosen his grip on you and he lets go with a chuckle. “Sorry!” Once you can breath again, you smile and nod to him.

    “What've you got there, Willie?” Klaymen asks, pointing to the basket.

    “Ooo! Me found nifty flowers!” he answered, bringing the basket to his other hand.  “Willie think girlie like them.” He holds the basket out to you and you hop a little, clapping your hands.  A present! Or at least a new thing, and Willie thinks you'll like it. You open the lid of the basket, and what you see inside fills you with so much dread that you feel cold.

    You jump back and almost hit Klaymen; the lid falls and closes the basket.  It can't be!? They're REAL!? Those horrific, disfigured and disgusting mangled faces are real! Willie looks at you in confusion and takes one of them out.  

    “It nifty flower, right?” he says, holding the thing closer to you.  You back up as much as you can to the wall behind you.  Willie moves closer with the mangled face and you drop to the floor shaking. You pull the blanket over your head and scream, you CAN'T let that thing near you again!

    You don't really know what happened after that.  You know that you're still screaming and crying and shaking uncontrollably, but that's about it.  You don't know how long you're like this, it's hard to tell under the blanket.  You do eventually stop, but you feel exhausted.  Your throat is sore, your eyes are burning, your head is spinning, and your face is a combination of wet and tight because of your tears.

    Klaymen carefully pulls back the part of your blanket that's on your head and pets your face.  You're in Hoborg's arms this time, and Willie no longer has the basket of mangled faces; he's holding out a glass of water to you instead.  Hoborg takes the glass from Willie and thanks him before bringing it closer to you.

    “Here, little one.  Drink.  It'll help your throat a little.” You're still a bit shaky, but you manage to take the glass of water and sip from it.  Your throat gets soothed and you manage to take some deep and slow breaths to calm down.  Klaymen turns to Willie.

    “I know you meant well, Willie,” he starts, “but I don't think bringing in something as weird as a basket of roses was the best idea.”

    “Yeah, me see.”  Willie said, quietly and sadly.  You finish your water and he holds his hands out to take the glass back.  “Sorry, Lattice.  Me no mean scare you.” This is the first time you've seen Willie this sad.  It's the first time you've seen anyone this sad, but you didn't expect the loud and excited Willie Trombone to be as quiet as Klaymen.  You start to cry again, you don't mean to scare everyone because you're scared.

    “I'm...sor...sorry.” you say, whimpering.  Willie and Klaymen look with sadness and confusion.

    “What for?” Klaymen asks, patting your head.  “You can't always help what you're scared of.”

    “Yeah, you no do anything wrong.” Willie coos.  Hoborg holds you close and pets your shoulders.

    “You're going to be okay, Lattice.” Hoborg says, his deep voice helping to calm your thoughts.

    You close your eyes and rest your head on Hoborg's chest; his heartbeat is louder than Klaymen's! Granted, from everything you heard yesterday, it's not too surprising.  There is a long moment of silence, and you continue to concentrate on Hoborg's heartbeat and your breathing.  Again, you don't know how long you've been like this, but apparently long enough for others to think that you've fallen asleep.  You hear Klaymen shuffle a little.

    “Maybe we should wait a little before showing her the rest of the Neverhood.” he whispers.  You don't know who he's talking to, but before you can stop yourself...

    “N-no!” you blurt out, opening your eyes.  You surprise everyone and you try to continue.  “I......I w-w........wa.....n...t......to......s-see.......the...the......N-N-Nev..........Never.....hood!” There is another moment of silence.

    “Shall we go and see it, then?” Hoborg asks.  You look to him and nod and he lets you go.  You both stand up with Klaymen and Willie's help.

    “You sure you're ready? Are you going to be okay?” Klaymen asks.  You then look to him and nod, taking the blanket off from your shoulders and hold it out to him.  He gently pushes the blanket back to you. “It's yours now, Lattice.  You don't need to give it back to me.” Klaymen smiles to you and you can't help but smile back.  

    You all then hear a strange sound; a weird moaning 'maaaauuuwwww!' being repeated over and over.  Klaymen's expression changes to surprise and he goes to the doorway.

    “Purpee!?” There is another  'maaaauuuwwww!'.  Willie's eyes widen.

    “Whoops! Me forgot to lock your door.” he says.  Klaymen turns to Willie.

    “You went to my house for water?” he asks.  Willie nods.  “Why didn't you go for the fountain?” Willie goes cross-eyed as he tries to think of his reasoning, all while Purpee continues moaning.

    “Why don't you two go ahead and meet up with Purpee?” Hoborg asks.  “We'll be right behind you.” Willie and Klaymen nod before leaving the room.  You hear Purpee's moaning turn into happy squeaking and Klaymen and Willie laughing.  You start making your way to the doorway and trip on your blanket.  Thankfully, Hoborg catches you before you fall flat on your face.

    “Careful, dear!” He helps you steady yourself before trying to move again.  You almost trip on the blanket again and decide to ball it up. Hoborg rubs his 'chin'.  “I have an idea.” he says.  “May I see your blanket please, Lattice?” He holds his hands out to you, and you hesitate before giving him your balled-up blanket.  “Thank you, dear.”

    Hoborg then opens the blanket back to what it was, takes one end and drapes it over your left shoulder.  He then drapes the rest of your blanket over your right shoulder, then wraps it around your waist before tucking it behind your back.

    “There! That's better!” he coos. “This way you'll have your blanket and not trip on it.”  You look down at yourself wearing your blanket now and smile.  This is a very nice look! Hoborg chuckles and holds out his arm for you.  “Shall we?” You look at him and nod, taking his arm, and you both leave the pink room.

    You arrive at the top of a staircase in a light blue room, and you see Willie and Klaymen playing with a small, round animal with a long tail and pointed ears.  You and Hoborg walk down the stairs to the guys and the small animal coos when it sees you arrive on the bottom. Klaymen is giggling and petting the animal.

    “That's Lattice, Purpee.” he says.  “You want to say hi to her?” Purpee walks over to you and sniffs at your leggings and blanket.  She then proceeds to flop onto your legs.  The room laughs. “She likes you.” Klaymen giggles.  He goes over and picks her up, cradling her in his arms.

    “You ready see Neverhood?” Willie asks.  You nod and look to Hoborg.  He lets go of your arm and pats your back.

    “Go ahead.” he says gently.  “It's just beyond that door.” He points ahead and you can see more bright colours.  You walk past the guys and through the door, and immediately you're filled with overwhelming happiness.

    This world is so much more colourful than you realize! The ground is two different bright greens swirled into each other, the canyon walls a warm browny-orange, colourful buildings either moulded into the canyons or built away from them! Then there's the people; not as colourful-looking as the buildings from what you can see, but every one of them exuding an infectious sense of joy and excitement for just simply existing! And this is only a small part of this world!

    This is the Neverhood! It's a paradise! It's perfect! You fall to your knees and begin to weep.  This place is so beautiful that you couldn't help it.  Soon you see Purpee try to get onto your lap and you hear someone run up to you.  You see Klaymen get down on one knee next to you and feel his hand on your back as you let Purpee on your lap.

    “Are you okay?” he asks, voice filled with concern.  You start giggling and pick up Purpee to hug; Purpee purrs on your shoulder. You face Klaymen with a huge smile on your face and say the two words you've wanted to say since you were a life seed.

    “I'm home!”

Lattice Stemly’s Story 4/5

Chapter 4: Nightmare

     This blanket is very cozy! So warm and soft, it really does feel like a hug! You're enjoying your slumber that you've become so used to when with Klaymen when you start to see strange images.  

     You try to focus a little more and soon you see Hoborg and a mountain of klay in front of him.  That's strange! Why's he walking in place? Is he stuck? You figure that you should go and help him get to the klay mountain and start walking over to him.  You then feel something catch onto your leggings.

     “Don't bother him.” says a voice.  You look down to your legs, then around you to where the voice could've come from, but you can't see anyone; not clearly anyway.  You look back to where Hoborg is, and he isn't there.  In his place is a path of thick bushes leading to the mountain of klay. Maybe this is why Hoborg can't move? How did you miss those bushes before?

     You think Hoborg still needs your help, so you go to the thick bushes and start walking through them.  You can feel the branches and thorns catch onto your outfit and scratch at your klay, slowing you down, but you keep moving forward.  The further you go into the bushes, the thicker and larger they become; they're now towering over your head.

     “He doesn't want your help.” says the voice again.  You look around again to find where the voice is coming from.  This time you see hundreds of mangled, disfigured red faces in the bushes and on the branches, every one of them crying blood and drooling puss.  One of the faces takes in a rasping breath.

     “Who would want help from a piece of dirt like you anyway?” it says.  “You'll only get in the way of everything.”

     “Just like with Klaymen.” says another face.  “Poor Purpee! She can't see him because of you, you selfish clod!”

     The bushes thicken even more and seem to move in closer to you, and you can see all the thorns and even the prickles claw their way toward you with those horrid faces.  You push harder through the bushes as best and as quickly as you can, ripping up your outfit and giving you deep scratches and cuts all over your body.  You end up tripping on one of the roots and loose half your stems on one of the branches and scratch your face on the thorns.

     “You useless lump of mud!” says the face that's closest to you.  You try to push it away, but your arms are now tangled in prickled vines, cutting yourself even more.  “You can't do anything on your own, could you?” Another face gurgles.

     “You can't even speak your mind! So pathetic!”

     You want to prove the faces wrong.  You're NOT useless or pathetic! You try to yell, but nothing comes out.  You try to scream, but your throat closes up before you could make a sound.  You do everything you can to make a sound, any sound! Even the garbled gibberish from earlier, but nothing comes out! The bushes close in even more and swallow you in blackness.

     You gasp as your eyes snap open.  What just happened!? Where are you now!? You feel hot and cold all at the same time, making you feel a little sick.  You sit up and look around, and see that you're back in the pink room by yourself.  You wrap yourself tightly with your blanket and stand up.  You look around more, but don't see any of those red faces.  

     You slowly go to the closed window and press the button next to it. The window opens and you're greeted with a cool breeze; you take a deep breath and relax a little.  You take a few more breaths, savouring the night air and you start to feel better.  You look out the window to check if the faces are out there, but don't see any. Granted, it's dark outside so you can't see much anyway; just the outlines of trees and the other buildings.

     You sigh, relieved that those faces aren't anywhere near you, and sit next to the window.  You hug yourself with the blanket and smile, glad that you're in the pink room.  You rest your head against the windowsill, enjoying the cool air and eventually fall back asleep.

Lattice Stemly’s Story 3/5

Quick note, I think Purpee is a cat even though in the movie that never came out they’re supposed to be a dog.

Chapter 3: Growing

     How are things going even faster now!? You can feel the days pass by you despite not leaving the pink room.  The room and Klaymen being in the room with you are the only two constants in your life right now. Occasionally, Willie would stop by to help Klaymen teach you things you need to know before you fall asleep.  

     You're first taught how to stand up and walk, and the first thing you and the guys learn is that you don't have feet; just rounded points at the ends of your legs.  The second thing you learn is what Klaymen and Willie are like.  They're both very friendly and encouraging, but Willie is loud and excitable whereas Klaymen is quiet and patient. With their help, you quickly learn how to walk despite having no feet.  Actually, because you have no feet, your steps are very quiet which makes you happy.

     It didn't take long to move to the next lesson, how to talk.  This is no where near as easy as walking! All you do is make weird noises and sounds that don't work at all! The only thing you could properly say is their names, but everything else sounds like pointless, garbled gibberish.  You stop, feeling discouraged again and a little mad with yourself.  Willie pats your back hard.

     “No worry, girlie!” he says, hoping to cheer you up.  “Talking really hard for lots of new peoples.  How about we do something else?” Klaymen nods.

     “We can come back to it later.” he coos with a smile.  “Let's talk about the Neverhood instead.”

     You look to Klaymen in confusion, and he and Willie start teaching you about this very world you were brought into.  You learn that Hoborg created it and went through horrendous monsters, boiling weather, blasphemous worms and loneliness, only for his chance to be nearly taken away forever by his first person, Klogg.  

     At this point, Willie takes over and tells you about how Klaymen was able to defeat Klogg and save not only Hoborg, but the entire Neverhood itself! These stories are amazing! This world sounds amazing! You want to see what's outside the pink room... and then you yawn.  Klaymen and Willie yawn as well.

     “Sleepy time already?” Willie asks.  Klaymen nods.

     “I think it's time to head back home.” he says, then turns to Willie. “How's Purpee handling being alone?”

     “She be lots happier if you back with her.  She try keep Willie leaving last night after me feeds her.”

     “I guess that means I should head back too.” Hearing that fills you with surprise and confusion.  You tap Klaymen's arm, then point to him then yourself, hoping that he's actually going to stay with you. Klaymen shakes his head.  “I can't tonight.  I kind of miss having a bed, and my cat misses me.”

     You can feel your face tighten in fear.  Up until now, Klaymen has been with you when you go to sleep for the night, and you had always woken up in his arms.  After everything you heard about the troubles that the Neverhood went through, you really don't want to be alone! Klaymen looks to you in worry, then thinks.  He tells Willie to head home before pressing one of the buttons on his shirt.  

     To your surprise, a little door opens out from his stomach! That's weird! At least it's distracting you from your fear.  Klaymen reaches into his stomach and pulls out a green blanket.  It takes him a moment to take it out completely, but once he does he closes up his stomach again.  He then holds the blanket out to you.

“Here.” he says.  “Take it.” His voice is filled with the same warmth and care as it always has, and you decide to take a closer look at it.  The blanket looks soft and is the same colour as your stems, but you don't know why he's giving it to you.  

     How is a blanket going to help you when you're alone? After a while, Klaymen takes the blanket and wraps it around you, giving you a hug in the process.  You hug him back tightly, listening to what you now know is his heartbeat.  This seems to be the only thing that can calm you down, even when he's adjusting the blanket around you.  You both let go of each other and he finishes adjusting the blanket, making sure you're properly covered.

     The blanket is as soft as it looks! Warm too! It feels like you're being held in someone's soft hands, making you smile and sigh.  You look at Klaymen smiling at you.

     “Now the blanket is hugging you just like I would.” he says, putting a hand on the side of your face.  “Whenever you feel scared, just wrap yourself with this blanket and think of me giving you a biiiiig hug.  You won't have anything to be afraid of this way.”  

     You're not sure if that's entirely true, but the comfortable warmth of the blanket and Klaymen's soothing voice makes you overlook anything that could be seen as dangerous.  You nod to him while smiling and he smiles back.  He helps you lie down on the ground and gives you a light kiss on your brow.

     “Good night, seedling.” he coos.  Klaymen then leaves the pink room and you quickly fall asleep.

Lattice Stemly’s Story 2/5

Chapter 2: Awake

     What's happening!? Everything's going by so fast! All you can figure out right now is that your surroundings are bright pink.  You continue shivering on the floor; this is the most terrified you've ever been in your whole life.  You're also freezing cold.  You feel a warm hand being placed on your shoulder, making you flinch a little.  The hand squeezed your shoulder gently and you slowly turn yourself as best as you can in the hand's direction.

     You then see who's with you, at least in the immediate vicinity.  The person that's kneeling with their hand on you and two other people behind them.  They all look really strange! For instance, the person with their hand on you had a skinny head, very broad shoulders, huge red lips, and a brown stem coming out the top of their head, and is wearing a dark red shirt and brown shorts.

     “Hello.” Th- HE coos to you gently and quietly.  His voice carries a sense of excitement and relief, which is further proven in his expression; a huge smile and eyes trying to hold back tears.  You try to sit up and say “hello” back, but you end up making a weird sound and almost fall over.  The skinny-headed guy catches you and helps you to sit upright.

     “One thing at a time, little one.” Says another, much deeper voice.  One of the other two people steps forward and kneels with you and the skinny-headed guy.  Did that voice come from him? This guy doesn't have a face at all! How can he talk!? He just looks like a stack of boxes with arms and legs and a crown on top!

     You start to think that deep voice can't have come from this box king and you look behind him to the third person, who is probably the most bizarre-looking out of all of them; a tall, lanky yellow being with large eyes and a ring on his head, wearing a blue outfit with a red belt.  They take a deep breath.

     “HAPPY BIRTHDAY!” ... that is not a deep voice! It's a low voice, certainly, but gravelly and with no gentleness at all! The surprise of the voice and the volume makes you flinch and you start shaking again in terror.  Your eyes burn as they fill with tears, and the skinny-headed guy pulls you into his arms for a hug.  You cry into his chest as he hushes and coos to you to calm down and that everything's alright.

     You then hear a familiar sound.  You can hear the drumming noise again! The exact same noise that you heard as a life seed! The sound is coming from the skinny-headed guy's chest, so you lean the side of your face into it and listen.  The room became much more quiet, and you feel warm in this being's embrace, just like you were in the giant's hand.  You feel safe again and you slowly stop crying.

     “I think we may need to be a little more gentle with this one.” says the box king.  The yellow guy apologizes quietly, his voice still somehow rough-sounding.  You feel something brush the tears from your face and your turn to see that it's the box king's hand.  “There, that's better.” You don't know how, but the box king's voice sounds like he's smiling, even though he has no face.  You feel yourself smile, too, and the box king chuckles as he begins introductions.  “I am Hoborg,” he says, then points to the other two people.  “This here is Klaymen, and the guy behind me is Willie Trombone.” Willie smiles to you and gives a small timid wave.  You wave back, but stop when you see your hand.

     Your hand is a blackish grey with skinny fingers, attached to an arm that is much thinner than everyone else in the room.  You continue to look at what you can see of yourself and notice that you have green stems hanging from your head in your peripheral vision.  You also see that you're wearing an off-white dress with matching leggings.  You touch your head to feel the stems and feel more things;  you lightly pull and see that you have more stems attached to each other with balls of the same off-white as your dress.  You hear Klaymen sigh.

     “I wonder what your name's going to be?” he murmurs quietly.  You think about it for a moment, but don't know either.  You let go of your stems and turn to Klaymen to say so; well, you try to tell him. You end up making more weird noises and sounds like an animal instead of a person.  It doesn't take you long to realize that you don't know how to talk, so you stop trying and sink your shoulders down a little, feeling disappointed with yourself.

     “Don't feel sad, my dear.” Hoborg coos, brushing your stems back behind you and resting his hand on your shoulder.  “This is your first day as a brand new person! You have many days ahead of you and plenty of time to learn everything you want.  Even how to talk.” You nod a little.  You understand what Hoborg's telling you, yet you can't shake your feeling of disappointment.

     You lean back into Klaymen's chest and cry again, quietly this time. Everything is so different now! The attention you're now getting, the fact that you're now one of these “giants”, what else could possibly happen? You know that there are more giants that the three people in the room with you, does this mean you need to meet them too? What if they're just as loud as Willie? What if they're louder than Willie!? Your head is dizzy with fears of what's to come and you start shaking again.  Klaymen pats your head and gently kisses your brow.

     “It's okay.” he whispers.  “I know all of this is scary at first, but you're going to be okay.”

     Are you? You stop shaking, but your thoughts are still all over the place.  You don't know what to think.  At this point, however, it's too early to say for sure.  You continue to wonder what your future will be like as you drift off to sleep in Klaymen's arms.

Lattice Stemly’s Story 1/5

I decided to revise her backstory a bit.  Original is still on my DeviantArt, but holy Quater it’s sub-par!

Chapter 1 - Noticed

     You are a seed.  A small life seed wedged in the edge of a spike being used as part of a ladder.  At worst, people step on you with big heavy feet as they climb.  At best, the many giants ignore you, or maybe even not notice you at all.

     Not that you make much effort to be seen.  Even if you can bring yourself off the spike, the large and loud bodies around you are terrifying. You can't make out what they say; some happy and jovial, some angry and hurtful, but most of the time you only hear their booming steps and no matter what you hear, it's all loud, muffled, chaotic and intimidating.

     Despite this fact and fear, you wish you are part of the commotion somehow. You wish that you are one of these giants.  You wish that you saw what would make them happy or sad or angry or hurt.  You want to be part of the stepping and muffled noises, but you don't know why.  You first think that it's because you won't be so scared anymore of the noise if you are a part of it.  You then think you’ll feel more at home with where you are, then you change your mind as the booming steps and voices overwhelm your thoughts and fear brings you back to your senses.  You can't be part of the commotion, because you're not a loud giant.

     You are a seed.  A small life seed in the edge of-

     Huh?

     What's happening? What's that scraping noise!? OW! What!? Where did the spike go?!? You feel a whoosh of air and hear a thud below you and guess the spike disappeared for the giant as well.  You try to keep yourself where you are, but you end up wiggling loose and fall, landing next to the giant as you feel its warmth.

     You hear the loud, muffled voices and even feel the booming footsteps bounce and jitter you as other giants came to check on your company. While muffled, the voices conveyed concern.  You two must have fallen quite a ways! Well, maybe not both of you, the giant definitely fell a long ways because all the commotion is directed to it.  That's a bit of a relief.  It's a bit sad too, but it only means that your life won't change much.  You're still going to live your life unnoticed and unseen.  It'll just be on the floor instead of on the sp-

     NEVERMIND! A giant did see you! It picked you up and the noises only became more intense and loud, and now it was all directed a you! It's so loud that you can't think! You're so scared that you feel cold! This living nightmare went on until one of the giants made an angry sounding woosh-scrape sound and all at once it became quiet.  There's no booming footsteps, and the voices are no longer thundering through you.  Everything feels still, and as scared as you are, you begin to feel calm.

     The giant wraps its warmth around you, and you begin to hear a constant, yet gentle drumming sound.  You can feel your fears melt away in this newfound sense of comfort.  Even when the muffled voices started up again, it didn't scare you.  You feel safe.  Content.  The voices got quieter as the giant holding you left them.  You hear it talk with a couple of other giants a bit later, but you don't care. You focus more on the comfortable warmth and hypnotic drumming sound, calm and relaxed.

     After a while, you notice that you can't hear the drumming sound anymore.  While you're wondering why that is, the warmth suddenly goes away and air is rushing passed you.  It threw you! The giant tossed you away like you were a pebble! You feel yourself fall and land on the floor agai-

     No, in the floor! It's like the ground swallowed you up.  You feel yourself twist and morph and stretch and grow, all while feeling unbearably hot and uneasy, until finally you pop up from the ground.  You are so aware of your surroundings that you even notice the silence was clearer. Everything is white, and you are cold and shaking uncontrollably.

     You are not a seed anymore.  What are you now?
