Mad ~ Whispers from the past, Odd Beginnings ~

I've always wondered what happened in the past of oddworld, I know we have some info but I want more, so I thought I'd write a fan fic of it

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chapter 1: Destruction from The Sky
~Odd Beginnings~

The Tribe of Mudos’s civilians were out everywhere, all speculating on what would fly through the night sky. The millions of stars shining through the clear sky, along with the moon towering over the world.

The great Mudos temple lay in the centre of the village, where the Lords and Leaders of Mudos lived and discussed matters and issues. The main court room was the biggest room in the temple, it had chairs all round placed at the edges if the room, high up, judging the Mudokons speakers. The centre where a light shined down was where Mudokons spoke their views and what needs to be dealt with.
A Mudokon with a bronze green like crown stepped forward.

“Yesterday we received word that the Glukkons were planning a full scale attack, which would happen on this very night, they boasted that our destruction would fly from the Sky. This could be a very serious threat to Mudoran!”

All the Mudokons in the high chairs roared in laughter, one of them stood up and spoke whilst trying not to laugh.

“Hah, merely bluff’s to scare us all, what are those long legged no armed smoking spewing monsters capable of anyway? Most likely nothing!”

The Mudokon in the center growled.

“But they’ve gained help from the Vykkers, god knows what they can do now!”

The other Mudokon sniggered again.

“All they do is cut up animals, you only have to threaten them and they quiver in fear!”

The Mudokon in the center was about to speak until a guard Mudokon burst into the court.

“LORDS MASTER, WE’VE JUST RECEIVED WORD THAT THE THE DESTRUCTOR FROM THE SKY IS VERY WELL HEAIDNG HERE!”

The Mudokon in the chair stood gob-smacked. He stuttered.

“How far away was this reported, how long do we have?”

“5 miles sir, but apparently it’s flying at a incredible speed!”

Just then a Roar of flames and sound like no other screamed over the village, shaking the huts and the temples.

The Mudokon in the chair darted to the Mudokon in the centre.

“Magnus WHAT SHOULD WE DO?....Wait…WHERE HAS HE GONE!?”

Magnus was far away from the light, he rushed past the guard and shouted ‘RUN’.

All the Mudokons in the temple started screaming, running everywhere, panicking, screaming!

Magnus Ran as fast as he could, then a sound he had never heard in his life erupted in the distance, a bright light shined and came rocketing through the village, the village it’s self now shaking, heat rushing past. Magnus turned round and screamed, flames of hell came running towards him, engulfing everything in it’s path….

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hope you like it Advice and feedback is appreciated, and I know with the glukkns arms and legs thing is the wrong way round, but near the end of the story you'll see how I'll incorporate it
And the Mudokon in the center of the court was Magnus, sorry if I didn't make that too clear..

That was actually kind of cool. I'm not gonna give you any advice. Because that is what seperates you from other writers. I know this because I'm writing a fan-fic too.

Thanks, after I did the chapter I didn't really like it, but hopefully I'll improve over time
and I look forward to your fanfic!

~Chapter 2~

Run


“Where am I? I can’t see anything!!”

Magnus Panicked, he could not feel anything, he could not smell anything, he saw just darkness, and all he could hear was his voice.
Then a blue light burst out of no where showing the remains of Mudoran.

Magnus got up, confused and dazed, it was still night, his vision was distorted, but then when his vision started going back to normal he wish that he was blind.

The entire village was gone, huts, trees, temples, everything scattered all over the land burnt or still with a bit of ember a lit.

“How….how did this happen!?”

Laughter came a few feet away, Glukkons laughter, it could not be mistaken. Magnus crept behind the rubble, in the shadows and is peeked through the rubble.
3 Great Yellow eyes glowed, and something that stuck out of there mouth looked like it was on fire.
Then Red eyes showed, with metal legs and a butt ugly face.

“Hah, and those Mudokons laughed at us when we threatened them, but now look where they are, all over the place now, as we stand on those green bastards”

The Glukkons seemed to be shouting as he spoke.

Magnus was full of rage, he wanted to kill the Glukkons, but he knew after destroying a entire village chances were that they had more weapons up there sleeve.

“Geez, can’t you put a mask on, you are really freaking me out!”

The red eyed creature didn’t look offended but it was hard to tell as Magnus couldn’t directly look at the creature due to how ugly it was.

“When will preparations for the factory begin?”

The other Glukkon shouted.

“As soon as possible, it seems Meeches somehow survived the attack, perfect to grind up, mash up, and make some fantastic food!”

Magnus had heard enough a started to creep away until he heard a croaked voice scream.

“FREEZE!”

Magnus turned around and saw the ugly creature pointing a piece of metal at it, then a million loud sounds ringed out along with tiny other pieces of metal, Magnus instantly sprinted away, he had left the ruins of he village and had entered the forest, frantically running to survive.

*SNAP*

Magnus tripped on a trees root and fell hard on the ground; the creature caught up with Magnus and pointed the metal at Magnus’s head. Magnus closed his eyes…
Then he heard a roar, a sacred scream, and then sounds of hooves.

A Scrab came leaping out of the bushes, Magnus gasped in awe, he had never seen one before, he had heard about them in stories his father would tell when travelling to the Scrabs Temple, and had seen pictures of them in the temples and in stories. But none of that compared to the real thing for Magnus.

The Scrab landed and speared its legs into the creatures chest, shooting out blood everywhere, the Scrab started feeding on the dead remains. Although Magnus wished to stay and watch the Scrab he knew that if he wasn’t careful the Scrab would kill him too, and that the Glukkons had most likely sent out more of those creatures.

Magnus got up and crept away from the Scrab, but still looking back at the majestic creature. When he had quite a far distance away from the Scrab he started running again, but was on full alert for ugly creatures and Scrabs.

Magnus had finally made it out of the forest, he felt safe for once, until the ground disappeared, and fell down a cliff, and smashed his head…

Hmm. You know, I actually like this. You've got an interesting writing style.
You seem to have everything down; sentences are spaced, proper grammar, the whole shbang. =D
But this is really interesting. I'll be checking for more chapters. ^^

Thanks, makes me a lot more confident in my writing

I don't know if I adopted the writing style from some where or just randomly started it, I just like having everything spaced.
Anyway happy your enjoying it so far, I hope you will continue to enjoy it

In case you didn't know my fan-fic is already in the Fan Corner.

Great chapter. I really like how the scrab flew out. And then there's also that bit where his father travelled in the temples... I wonder if his dad is Abe. I really like those smilies. I'm going to bed now.

Impossible, this is set before the oddworld events, it's telling of how things started, I didn't make that very clear...but hey I can still make a dramatic star wars scene of fatherness
But Magnus will reveal to be quite special, whether I will explore his father or not I don't know (Although it's impossible since no mudokons have dads xD)

And off to read your fan fic now
