《From Dog to God》 chapter 1: prologue Hello there. this is my first fiction so I hope you enjoy if I even get 10 reader I will be happy. I am mildly dyslexic so any spelling and grammar stuff you notice is appreciated. It is probably awful so sorry and any and all advice is welcome. Including constructive criticism _______________________________________________ Before all this started I was a fairly normal moderately boring young man, average height and weight. I worked part time while racking a large student loan getting a mediocre degree from an average university. But that all changed one day when I died. No clue how it happened one day I was working at the supermarket packing shelves like I did most Sundays and then suddenly I found myself in darkness. I started to panic. Where was I why could I barely move? Slowly after a while a started to calm down and then began to think I couldn¡¯t remember anything beyond packing shelves and it didn¡¯t seem like a power cut or other such circumstances. I started to feel lonely only to realise I wasn¡¯t alone I could clearly feel other people next to me. Slowly though I started to realise they didn¡¯t seem to be people they had tails, and then it hit me I had a tail! Was some sick fucker experimenting on me/us? And then we started to move towards an opening. What was happening? Slowly one by one we left and I noticed I was the last one out. Auuuuuuuugh the light god it hurt my eyes. Um am I being licked? Oh my god I am by a giant dog. And then it hit me I became a puppy. _____________ So 8 months have passed since my rebirth as a dog and I have to say it sucks a lot. At least I was born to a good home and have enough food and stuff I guess but wow is it boring. And thank GOD that I haven¡¯t been neutered that would have been awful. Life so far is ok I learned to walk and run fairly fast and i''m growing insanely fast. I and I don¡¯t just mean as in dogs mature fast because while there is that I am huge for a normal dog. Not sure of the exact name of my species but my parent a small white balls of fluff. (image first one here: http://www.usernetsite.com/wallpapers/free-dogs-and-puppies-desktop-wallpapers.php) I however look identical to them except at 8 months of age I am almost a metre tall at the shoulders. I think that why I''m still living with my owners all my sibling where normal and have been sold or given away by now. I however still at home with a lovely British family on their farm. They have taken me to the vet and no one seems to know why I am so big they took tests and everything and as I was there when the result came in I can tell you I am a completely normal dog as far as genetics go and oddly even with my size and weight I don¡¯t show any of the issues large dogs often have. So here I am sitting on the front porch with my owner¡¯s Daughter lying on the porch while we/she listens to Led Zeppelin. Now if only I could also have a beer life would be ok. Just as ¡°stair way to heaven¡± was wrapping up it happened, there was a flash of light and the heavens themselves started to shake, I thought it must have been thunder and lightning and turns out it was. Racheal (my owner) and I were struck by a bolt of lightning each. Love what you''re reading? Discover and support the author on the platform they originally published on. When I woke up I was lying on my giant doggy pillow covered in bandages around my head where I was struck. Lying next to me on her bed was Rachel covered from foot to toe in bandages. If it wasn¡¯t for the severity of the incident it would have been hilarious she looked like a mummy. Over the next few weeks me and Racheal recovered remarkably quickly according to the doctor (and vet) and amazingly did not appear to be showing any long term negative effects of the lightning strike except that half of Racheal formerly black hair had gone white and half of my white hair had gone black. No one could explain it at all. And so 5 more months when past with me and Racheal working on the farm and playing around. Over the last 5 months I had continued to grow and was now 1.7m tall at the shoulder and had finally stopped growing. I had also had a Guinness world record as the largest dog. Racheal could literally ride me around the farm and she did. It was tons of fun and made work go a lot faster. Sadly with my insane size I could no longer live in the house and had to live in the barn. At first this was rather upsetting but I got used to it. While in the barn one night as a struggled to sleep a noticed a heat in my chest and it was growing hotter. Slowly I concentrated on the heat and noticed a similar heat in the atmosphere. Not knowing what to make of it I decides to try move it. After what felt like hours I managed to move some of it to my paw and suddenly it flashed and left my body in a bright white light. During which my claws sunk into the wood that they rested upon and a felt exhausted. Not knowing what to make of this phenomenon I was puzzled paying attention to my core, as a decided to call it, I noticed it was smaller and that the heat particle thingy¡¯s were slowly entering my core and it was returning to its original size. Not knowing what to do I decided to ignore it for now and get some sleep as it was late and I had to be up early. Over the next few nights I experimented with this power and made some amazing progress. By concentrating the power into my muscle I could make myself stronger and faster. if I put power into my eyes my vision improved and I could finally see in full colour again. If put into my ears and I could hear Racheal¡¯s heart beat all the way from the barn. The two biggest break though I had however were that if the energy does not leave my body less will get used up and that I could intentionally draw the energy into my body which allowed it to recover quicker. It passively increased my strength as some energy was absorbed into my muscle not my core, and also increased the size of my core. It was awesome I felt like a cultivator out of the fictions I used to read. With my enhanced senses I noticed Rachael also seems to have noticed the same thing and while slightly behind me was able to do similar things to I was, only she was using a dark coloured energy not a white one like me. I came to the conclusion that the lightning bolts that hit us must have been responsible to this. However I kept this power to myself as a feared what would happen if people found out what we could do. Chapter 2: through the worm hole and the new world second chapter and i got more than 10 views so woohoo prob wont have time to do one more to day so will release a third tomorrow [th_084_.gif] also considering each of these to a like 1-2 hours to write they will hopefully become longer once my speed and confidence picks up so ya sorry they so short --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Time marched on and I am now a lot stronger, faster and I think maybe ever smarter than I was before. My core has increased in size a lot initially if it was a ping pong ball it is now a basketball and a can do a lot more with is I discovered. Apart from strengthening myself and enhancing attacks I could also heal myself with the light. It happened one day when I was cut on a rusty nail and unconsciously focused the energy into the wound and it healed in seconds. I can also heal others as I practices with a wounded cow in one of the fields. Based on this fact I decided to dub my energy as light attribute. As I can heal and stuff. Racheal seems to have a darkness attribute as I noticed when she puts energy into other things they get corrupted. She only done it so far with food however. Also so far as I can tell her core is a lot smaller than mine and I not sure if this is because she is smaller or what? The best thing I have found so far though is that through channelling energy into my throat is that I can make more sounds other than barking although nowhere near enough range to speak yet sadly. I have however run into a problem however and that is that my core won¡¯t get any bigger anymore and I not sure what to do about it. One day while me and Racheal where out putting fence post into the ground. She had noticed how strong and smart I was so I actually helped. ¡°Rex can you push this one in¡± (Racheal) I naturally was happy to oblige and was about to push the post in with my paw when there was another flash of light and a thunderous bang fearing another lightning strike was about to happen I dove onto Rachael, but no strike came instead there was what sounded like a piece of paper being ripped only a million times louder and then the suction force came. The author''s tale has been misappropriated; report any instances of this story on Amazon. Using my energy I tried to resist as did Racheal however we were both totally unsuccessful and were flung into the rip in space. Flying through the hole I made sure not to let Racheal go and she me. We flew though what I believe to be a worm hole for what felt like hours but was actually seconds until we hit solid ground, and I passed out from the impact which I thankfully protected Racheal from. When I woke up I was lying in a forest with Racheal next to me on the ground still unconscious. Nearby there was a fire going with a man in what looked to be scale armour sitting. Roasting I a giant pig over the fire. It was huuuuuugggggeeeee like way bigger than me. He noticed me stirring and glanced over. ¡°Hey here little one¡± he said ¡°I¡¯m not gonna harm you.¡± He said this to me as if he expected me to understand him which was impossible right? ¡°Here have some food¡± he said as he offered me a whole pig leg. ¡°I¡¯ll explain what happened to once your friend wakes up, I¡¯m Fenrir by the way, what¡¯s your name¡± Rex a thought to myself but obviously couldn¡¯t answer him. ¡°Rex? Like a king?¡± Fenrir said with a chuckle. I was startled, he can read my mind? ¡°Yea it¡¯s an easier enough trick to do once you get strong enough. Normally I wouldn¡¯t but obviously you are not yet strong enough so channel Ki to allow you to speak¡± Ki is that what the energy is called I thought? ¡°Wow you don¡¯t even know that? Where on Gaia are you from? Oh well we can get to that later. Eat you will need to keep your strength up.¡± And so I did. Still confused I ate the whole pig¡¯s leg when Racheal started to stir. At first she reacted much the same as me until Fenrir told us he would explain what was going on. ¡°Well the long and short of it is due to my carelessness I accidentally brought you to this world¡±
