N/A.

Gaia opened her eyes for the first time, unaware of so many things but the one thing she knew was her name.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;She looked around, unable to comprehend what she saw for what she saw was beyond her ability to express with words.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;

&nbsp;

??? - You are what I've been trying for.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Gaia's didn't really hear a voice as so much as she felt an impression.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;

&nbsp;

Gaia - And what exactly am I ?&nbsp; &nbsp;

&nbsp;

??? - You are as I named you Gaia, even as confused as you are you know that.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Gaia felt something but didn't know what.&nbsp; &nbsp;

&nbsp;

??? - What you are feeling Gaia is an emotion.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Annoyance.&nbsp; &nbsp;You are annoyed because I haven't really answered your question, right.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;

&nbsp;

Gaia nodded.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;

&nbsp;

??? - You are what I deem a Titan, the first Titan.&nbsp; There is more then that but for now that is what you shall know.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;

&nbsp;

Gaia was still confused but let if go for she had something else to ask.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;

&nbsp;

Gaia - What am I to call you.&nbsp; &nbsp;

&nbsp;

??? - I am nameless but if you need to call me something call me Chaos.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;

&nbsp;

Gaia - What happens now Chaos ?&nbsp; &nbsp;

&nbsp;

Chaos - Now my daughter I will send you to wonder the world, your world, and wonder you shall until you decide what is needed.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Gaia was going to ask what a daughter was when she suddenly knew as if she always had.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Gaia - If you're going to send me someplace then what is this place.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;

&nbsp;

Chaos - This is a place outside of your ability to understand for it exists yet doesn't and I can tell without even trying that you don't understand which is fine.&nbsp; If you must name this place that is not a place then name it The Void.&nbsp; &nbsp;

&nbsp;

Chaos - Before I send you I must first take something from you.&nbsp; This will hurt.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;

&nbsp;

If Chaos hadn't told her it'd hurt she wouldn't have known what hurt was and oh did it hurt.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Gaia - What did you take from me ?&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Chaos - Something that will be needed later and before you ask, yes I did have to take it now for once I send you to your world you will change.&nbsp; Become less, so I had to take it now before such a diminish can take place.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Gaia didn't fully understand but she remained silent.&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Chaos - Do you have anything to ask before I send you ?&nbsp; &nbsp;

&nbsp;

Gaia thought and thought and thought.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Gaia - Why can I see through myself yet at the same time I can't ?&nbsp;&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Chaos - It is because of The Void.&nbsp; &nbsp;Your perception of your own body is being....Not even I can phrase it for you.&nbsp; &nbsp; Just know that when you go to your world your perception will not be as it is now.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Gaia nodded again.&nbsp; &nbsp;

&nbsp;

Chaos - Anything else ?&nbsp; &nbsp;

&nbsp;

Gaia - Nothing that I can think of.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Chaos - Then close your eyes and prepare for sensations that are beyond your ability to fully grasp.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;

&nbsp;

Gaia did as Chaos asked and as soon as she did so she felt as if her whole being was vibrating.&nbsp; &nbsp;She also felt what Chaos had told her she would.&nbsp; &nbsp; She also got the impression of Chaos again but it was different, lesser.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Chaos - My Gaia, My Daughter.&nbsp; &nbsp;You will hold great power over your world.&nbsp; You will not understand now but you will.&nbsp; &nbsp;It will be painful to go through this but you must, know that while I'll in a sense be watching over you my interference will be few.&nbsp; &nbsp;At times you'll feel abandoned and may even come to hate me and know I accept that.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Now Gaia, I say goodbye to you and now you must open your eyes.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Gaia felt great sadness, for that's indeed what she felt, but she opened her eyes and gasped at what she beheld.&nbsp; &nbsp;

Gaia gasped at what she beheld but it was out of sadness, not joy.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; As far as she could see what she saw was grey and barren for the moment her gaze fell upon this she knew what this world, her world, was.&nbsp; &nbsp; Barren.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Dark clouds only added to the dismal scape in front of her.&nbsp; Gaia felt her heart ache at what she beheld and desperately wanted to change it though she couldn't fathom the words to put her feelings to.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;

&nbsp;

She knelt down and placed her hands upon her world.&nbsp; She knew more from this connection then just seeing had provided.&nbsp; &nbsp; Barren but also more.&nbsp; &nbsp;Hard.&nbsp; Searing Hot yet with a Coldness that was subtle.&nbsp; Bleak.&nbsp; &nbsp;Waiting.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;

&nbsp;

With a suddenness Gaia felt this Waiting envelope her.&nbsp; She closed her eyes and allowed understanding to come to her, which it did but slowly for there was no rush.&nbsp; &nbsp; Eventually Gaia opened her eyes and knew, in part at least, why she had been sent here.&nbsp; &nbsp;For while Chaos had created this, it couldn't do more and more it wanted.&nbsp; &nbsp; Chaos knew what it had created could be so much more but making that happen would take something else, Gaia.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;

&nbsp;

Gaia stood up, she lifted her right foot and placed it back down with force and it sank some into the hard ground.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;She did the same with her left foot.&nbsp; &nbsp;Then with some difficulty she was able kneel back down to press both her hands into the hard ground.&nbsp; They also sank some and when they did something started to happen.&nbsp; &nbsp; Green started spreading outward, Grass.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Blue started flowing outward, Water.&nbsp; While the hard ground remained hard beneath her it changed, lessened in a way.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;

&nbsp;

She didn't know how long she stayed there and it didn't matter to her, she'd stay as long as she had to so that way her world would change.&nbsp; &nbsp; Gaia closed her eyes and let her mind still.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;She caught glimpses of changes happening all over her world.&nbsp; She saw some places fill up with so much Water that the ground would never again be visible to those above.&nbsp; &nbsp;She saw some place where the ground changed completely, becoming individual grains.&nbsp; &nbsp;She saw some places where the ground stayed hard yet was different, towering up and up.&nbsp; &nbsp;

&nbsp;

Gaia wasn't sure how long she actually stayed there and it didn't matter to her.&nbsp; &nbsp;For she saw more of her world grew and flourished for that's what was happening.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;She was happy that there was so much that was so different in her world.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;

&nbsp;

When she became aware that her world was no longer growing she opened her eyes and fell back in surprise at what she saw.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Gaia was no longer on dry ground but was in water.&nbsp; &nbsp;

&nbsp;

She righted herself and looked back into the water to see what she knew to be herself for there was no other possibility.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;She saw herself for the first time since being here and was intrigued by how she herself look.&nbsp; &nbsp;She raised a hand and what she saw in the water did the same.&nbsp; &nbsp; She stood up and herself in the water did that.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Gaia paused, her line of thinking didn't seem quite right but she'd ponder that later.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;

&nbsp;

Standing, she looked down to see herself.&nbsp; Something immediately caught her attention and that was 2 mounds on her chest, she didn't recall having these before.&nbsp; &nbsp;Did she develope them while her world was flourishing.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Determined to come back to these 2 mounds she explored the rest of her body with her eyes that she could see clearly in the water.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Her body had an hardness to it, an earthy hardness that had trees and grasses dotting around with what was some streams of water running on her.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;The trees, grass, and streams were also on her arms and legs but much lesser.&nbsp; &nbsp;

&nbsp;

Content with what she saw she now used her hands to feel her body.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Her body felt as hard as it looks.&nbsp; She purposely avoided those 2 mounds on her chest for now.&nbsp; &nbsp; Her arms and legs felt strong.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Touching her trees and her grasses produced an interesting feeling.&nbsp; &nbsp;Touching her streams of water also produced an interesting feeling and left her fingers wet which she dried with her grasses.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Lastly she turned her attention to those 2 mounds on her chest.&nbsp; &nbsp;She eyed them with curiosity and with an unsureness, they looked very soft and that was a puzzlement to her for why would she need them.&nbsp; Why would she need such softness.&nbsp; What could they possibly be for.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Slowly she raised both of her hands to these mounds, when she touched them they were indeed as soft as they looked.&nbsp; Maybe even softer.&nbsp; &nbsp;The interesting feelings produced by touching her trees, grasses, and streams were nothing compared to the feeling that sprang up inside her now.&nbsp; &nbsp;Contemplating that feeling she moved her hands over her mounds without breaking contact with them while trying to gain an understanding of them.&nbsp; &nbsp;An understanding that didn't come.&nbsp; &nbsp;She continued this for abit and while the feeling grew and intensified it gave her no answers so she stopped.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;

&nbsp;

She turned and started to walk in a direction that'd take her out of the water.&nbsp; &nbsp;As she was walking she looked down to see herself in the water when she noticed something.&nbsp; &nbsp; There is a crevice of some kind between her legs, a long crack.&nbsp; &nbsp;She stopped walking and focused her attention on looking between her legs which since she was no longer walking was difficult.&nbsp; &nbsp;As if responding to her the water shimmered and moved to provide her a clear view.&nbsp; &nbsp;She had to rely on this view as she couldn't see it herself.&nbsp; What she saw was both a crack and a crevice at the same time yet it wasn't.&nbsp; &nbsp;Intrigued she moved her legs to change the view some and to her surprise she saw whatever it was open up briefly.&nbsp; &nbsp; Out of curiosity she took one of her hands and touched this area, it was way softer then it looked. Maybe even softer then her 2 mounds.&nbsp; Touching a hand there caused a feeling, a sensation, that was utterly different then the others before.&nbsp; &nbsp;Continuing she added some pressure and a finger of hers went in slightly.&nbsp; &nbsp; Her whole body was hit with an intense feeling that she couldn't possibly name, as a result she staggered and her finger came out.&nbsp; Gaia managed to stop herself from ending up on her knees.&nbsp; &nbsp;She looked at that hand, at that finger and saw it had water on it.&nbsp; &nbsp;No, upon staring she realized it wasn't exactly water but she wasn't sure what it was.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Not giving it much thought she dried that finger on some of her grass on a leg.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Leaving these mysteries as mysteries for now she continued to walk.&nbsp; &nbsp;With each step that intense feeling faded.&nbsp; &nbsp;Once she was out of the water she paused to look at the dense trees that were in front of her.&nbsp; &nbsp;She walked in, wanting to explore her world.&nbsp;
