The warm breeze edged against the side of my arm. It's sensational feeling thrived my body, as I threw myself onto the rock in front of me. I laid my head against the hard cracks and stared deeply into the sky. Oblivious thoughts disappeared from my head, as I felt absolutely unadulterated. The complete feeling slowly faded, as so did the sun. The night was falling.

I picked myself up, struggling to move. As sweat ran down my head, I frantically turned my head in search of a safe area. There was only an immense hole a few meters in front of me. My father had packed me with food and a wooden sword as I left to play with my friends, since my mother had gone missing years ago. I could always remember her glossy red hair blowing against the summer winds.


I had lost my friends playing hide and seek. The precipices around me seemed to get taller, as I felt a sudden burst of coldness struck me. With a forward motion, the coldness turned into a burning feeling. Pain dwelled against my back, as I fell to my knees.

A moment after I got hit, I heard a whooshing sound. Perhaps the shock slowed down the world around me, as I instantly recognized the pain. An arrow had pierced against my flesh. I cried out loud, as I heard the sound of a bow pulling backwards. It's elastic potential energy charging. I reached into my black patched backpack as fast I could. The wooden sword was dull, and could barely scratch my arm, but it had to do. With a swift motion, I pulled it out and bent to my knees. Holding the sword outward, the skeleton-like monster let go of his fingers. The air around me intensified, as I barely was able to deflect it. My sword cracked a little bit, pulling out a few splinters. I spun to my feet, limping forward. The skeleton prepared another shot, but before it could lay a finger on its arrow, my sword ran through its chest. Literally.

Almost as if it was mocking me, its bones clattered loudly. With a turn of my body, the blade pulled against its ribcage, sending it to the side quickly. My strong built body will be useful. A massive bolt of energy surged through me. I bent my legs, crashing it into the ground. With a push, I pounced into the air at the monstrosity. My sword ripped through its eye socket into the back of its head. With two cracks, my sword fell apart and its head in half. The skeleton stopped for a moment and fell to the ground. Before I could celebrate, roars and grumbles echoed throughout the small area.

My heart began to race as I ran away from the dark forest. I was completely surrounded. With another dash towards my backpack, an arrow ran through the air and slit the air right before my eyes. I came to a halt, as a humanoid object was at my bags. Except its flesh was pouring out of its body. Suddenly, the hole beside him seemed to cry out for my name. My body turned sluggish, as I stuttered towards the zombie.

"Argh..." it moaned at me. After completely emptying the bag, its glowing red eyes turned to me. Its perished skin was frightening to look at, but I couldn't stop. I just kept moving towards it. My body wouldn't stop, although my mind was telling me I would die. The beast's leg wandered towards mine, as its mouth molded open.

With a swift motion, my hands slashed through its slimy chest. Its eyes soared open against the impact. Its body ripped into two as its chest fell to the ground. As all the other monsters was barely a few feet away from me at this point, I tripped against my bag and rolled to the very edge of the gigantic cavern. The zombie, still alive, crawled towards me. Its eyes full of hatred, its mouth gushing of black blood, and its hands clenching without fear, it screeched at me with such force I slowly leaned off of the edge. My body rushed towards the endless, dark ground. The world around me was pitch black, and eventually, my thoughts became pitch black.

When I awoken, I noticed I couldn't pick myself up. My body felt heavier and stronger, though my arms could not support the weight. My foggy vision eventually cleared, as an overwhelming fear casted upon me. The amount of fear was indescribable. Sweat ran down my forehead like a massive waterfall, my eyes shook with enough force to move a mountain, my hands clenched enough to break itself, my skin had enough goosebumps to freeze me.

I had a moostache.

Suddenly, as I was crying out loud I felt a cold feeling against my palm. I brushed off the tears and looked over at the object. My eyes fell out of its socket as I stared at the largest supplies of ruby I had ever seen. Now that I noticed, the whole entire cavern was made of rubies. The only thing that made it down with me was a lantern, iron, and cloth. I had to make do, and protect this. If this was ever to be given to someone who would use it for inhumane purposes, I could not forgive myself.

I got onto my legs, and saw my body had changed. I wonder how long it has been since I was out... perhaps a decade.


My body mass was larger, but I was scrawny. I had not tasted the sensation of food for so long, my stomach was hollow. I hastily looked for food, but only found rubies. Perhaps... they tasted like cherries? I bite down ever so slowly into one, gnawing on the tasteless rock. My teeth cracked, with a small trail of blood going to my chin. Maybe I had to get use to this.


The darkened chambers of the cavern didn't scare me, as I had slept in here for years. My eyes were adjusting to the darkness, but not fast enough. Without a notice, I heard footsteps. My eyes wandered the walls, and saw something crawling about. It's shadowy figure muttered something at me. Was it a human, I suspected not. I couldn't help myself. I quickly dashed into the wall, grasping a hold of the slimey creature. Its eyes ripped opened with a white glare.

"Do you want to survive?" it winced. I pushed my red long hair aside from my face, as it has nearly grown to my waist, to get a better look. It was only a black figure with white glowing eyes.

"Yes." I simply responded. A large white smile crept onto its face.


"Give me all of your hair." it growled. I was hesitant, but I accepted his request. Taking the piece of iron I had, I shaved myself bald. The creature grabbed the hair, and scrambled into the darkness.

"Hey, wait!" I yelled, chasing it with all of my speed. It was so quick, no matter how fast I was, it would always stay a certain pace ahead. Suddenly, it came to a halt. With a backlash, its hands ripped through my eyes. Its menacing stare disappeared and so did my eye. I stood there, bending down onto my knees. Blood quickly rushed onto the floor. The agonizing feeling threw my body to the floor all too quickly.

Then, an echoing rolling sound came upon me. I placed a finger on the object. Its circular shape seemed to had resembled an eye. It was made completely out of rubies. Maybe this was from the object was what he was going to give me in for return. Without a choice, I pushed it into my eye. My nerves stabbed into the ruby, and became one with it. I opened my left eye and saw the world differently. Everything was so clear, and with the pain fading, I walked back to where I once had fell. The creature stood upon the ruby ores, and with its glossy red hair, it dissolved into the rubies. I approached the spot where it once sat. A single tear drop fell upon the ruby, sending a resonating signal throughout the caverns.

Sitting down in lotus position, I closed my eyes and waited. I waited to protect this cavern for the rest of my life. To become the next Ruby Guardian.

This shouldn't have been disqualified. This skin isn't even a complete human. And rubies can only be found underground, obviously, so...
yeah...
That was a little uncalled for...
