Wubbox's POV

I yawned, blinking away the sleep from my eyes. How long was I out? Wait... no... that's not a question I should be asking. It's more of a... where am I sort of thing?

I was on this comfortable slab covered by this thick blue cloth. Inside of a darkened room. Turing my head to the side, beside the slab Was a large brick with material I am unfamiliar with, with handles on it. On top, was this... funny shaped thing. (He is referring to a lamp.)

I sat up. This place isn't too bad actually. I oddly liked it dispite being trapped with no way out. Actually, I think there is a way out.

Sitting up and throwing the thick cloth off of myself, I stood up and walked over to this... obvious frame in the wall with a ball on it. Not knowing how it works, I tapped it a few times, expecting it to do something. That didn't work.

I then also punched it once. Hurts, but was it worth it? No.

I tried pulling and pushing. Before twisting.

Click.

It easily opened with a twist? Oh come on! I mentally facepalmed myself as I then pushed it open.

The wall folded in on itself was I walked out of the gap made by the little ball, then it reverted back into its original state as I stepped away.

Click.

Where was I now? It looked like a hallway. Left and right were paths that I've never been down before. I didn't know where I was, but I reckon this might have been the hidden temple my creator was talking about.

If that were the case, I could ask a celestial I come across to lead me to creator! Very simple! Well. Unless. Depending on if the temple is small or not. But who am I to care! I can't see another darn door in like... the place. Probably because they were invisible at the angle I was looking at.

I have to choose a hallway, I mean I can start from there right?

So I did the first thing that came to my mind. A ritual.

"Eenie meanie miney mo, catch a colossal by its toe, and if you will not let it go. Eenie meanie miney mo."

And it has chosen... right! I traversed down the hallway. Taking at least 30 steps before reaching a intersection forking off into two paths. And the opposite of right is, left!

I'm not going to do the ritual every single time. It's not worth it. I pondered to myself as I walked down the empty halls. Maybe they could add some decoration here and there, add more life to this full boring place!

I reached another fork in my path and walked right. I'm certainly going to get lost with all the steps I've taken. For this hidden temple being underneath starhenge. For a floating island. It's shockingly big on the inside.

———————————————————————————-

Thirty minutes and counting... Left, right, right, left right right left left. There are so many hallways and doors! Like what the hell? I've even come across this staircase leading upwards.

Did I go up and get even more lost?

Yes I did.

Was it worth it?

Absolutely not.

I was starting to regret leaving my room and aimlessly wandering around. But there are 12 celestials in this darned temple! They can't be that hard to find. Right?

Sighing, I hit another fork in the path. Slowly getting bored of my adventure. I might as well stay here until they find me. But that's no fun...

In order to make it less boring, I came up with a little game. It's nameless right now, so until I come up with the write word. It's uh. Yeah. Nameless! I'll call it that!

First, I start off at a running position. Pre-picking the right passageway. The goal of this game of mine was to see how fast I could find a celestial.

Slowly counting down from ten. I hit zero, I bolted as fast as I could go. Which was around 13 miles/h (20.9 Km/h). At least that's what my systems told me. But even if I was running that fast, it took me at least 17 seconds to clear a hallway. And yet, no celestial.

I need to stop monologuing and concentrate.

....

Hm, What's that blue and pink dot in front of—

...

Shit...

Stop.. stop stop STOP STOPSTOP!-

SMACK! SKII— SKID SKIIIIIIDD... Thwank! THUD! TING!

"OOF!"

"AUGH! Watch it kid!!"
