SubSyg Story - Chapter One, Birth

     In the darkness of the ethereal world, a disturbance was building up in a small area. A ghazt orb had formed there, but it was cracked. Its spirit was escaping its containment, and the orb started to glow. It started cracking open, and it caught the attention of a nearby ghazt. It warped right in front of it and snatched it. The confused ghazt toyed with the orb until it gave it a really hard poke. That caused a reaction which shattered the orb, becoming a mini-black hole, and sucked the ghazt right in.
     The two were combined, and the black hole began forming into a brand new creature. It took the form of the ghazt, but with a few special features. It had grown thick, chubby legs, its arms thickened a little, it became slick and fur-less, and its eyes looked much more normal and larger. It took its first breath on the ethereal soil, and it became alive. This creature, was Syg. Its first instinct was to escape; run. It picked up a groove and sped away. It wanted to escape, leave the ethereal world it was born in. Its thoughts were stirring, observing all its surroundings, exploring this, dimension.
     The beautiful world seemed to have no end, until yet another disturbance caught the creature's eye. It took the shape of a spider, which had been forming into an ethereal monster, but the transformation was broken, and it became mutated with all its surroundings and boomed at Syg, which immediately ran for its life. It jumped and weaved every obstacle while dodging the arachnoid's mighty blows.
     However, Syg was much faster, and after a long dash, it was stopped by the presence of a strange orb rested on a tall spike, protected by other large boulders and ethereal structures. Syg swiftly climbed its way to the top, anxious to grab the orb, but time was ticking, and fast. Syg jumped off the nearest rock, reached out and grabbed it, falling to the ground, but safely landed on his feet.
   Suddenly, the orb began glowing, and lifted out of Syg's grasp, giving Syg a strange sensation. Syg stomped its foot hard on the ground, and its form began to change. Syg's tail grew longer with a tail spike at the end, and another right under the back of tail, as a little double horn extruded from its head. Its eyes got sharp and more cat-like, and a strange symbol formed within the orb. As Syg's transformation was finishing, the arachnoid quickly caught up to Syg. With a grinding of its teeth, Syg boomed away, speeding so fast its form became nearly invisible. The arachnoid continued to chase after Syg, but came to a stop; Syg had already got away.
   Syg was running unbelievably fast, so fast that it was splitting the seal that closed off the ethereal world from the real world, eventually bursting it open, and running straight into the real world. It came out with a extreme tumble, and got kicked right into the air. Syg's form then normalized, and it fell flat on its face, immediately blacking out. The rift Syg left open had closed, but the arachnoid wasn't gone for good.
