Special Delivery
Hiya guys. This is my first fanfic on this particular site. I hope to be a writer eventually, so feedback would be appreciated on the quality of my work.
Viva Oddworld!
The Slig's pants hit each other with quiet clinks as his upper body shook.
Sekto paced around the entire crate while the Slig watched. Finally he stood in one spot and bored into the Slig's eyes with his own glowing orange ones.
"It is quiet. It had better not be damaged."
The Slig knew that the Oktigi did not need to add an "or else" to the end; the message was abundantly clear that the Slig would be annihilated if the special package was damaged.
"Break it."
"Right."
The Slig tugged at a corner of the crate; he pulled harder as it began to give way.
Finally, the box's "THIS SIDE UP" panel fell off with a clatter.
Inside lay a Gloktigi.
The creature simply stood and watched Sekto with burning red eyes. The Oktigi looked at the Gloktigi, and the Slig shook in his pants.
Then, all of a sudden, the Gloktigi lifted a massive claw and nuzzled Sekto's side with it. The Oktigi, in return, petted its head. "Good, little one. I have plans for you."
The Slig didn't know what he meant, didn't want to know what he meant, just wanted to leave.
"Uh, Mister Sekto?"
The Oktigi turned from his pet and stared at the Slig.
"Are you all set? Can I go?"
"Oh, yes," laughed Sekto. "You are definitely going somewhere."
And with that, the Gloktigi speared the Slig on its claws and flung him over Sekto's office bookshelves and down into the dam below.
"Very nice. I definitely have plans for you, little one."
