Tuatara dragged his sweaty self over yet another sand dune. Blasted sun, he thought, hysterical and angry. Why am I here?!
"Aeros!" he called out. "Yo! Yipper-di-do! ARG!!!" Tuatara collapsed onto the ground. Why am I here? For who?! ME? WHO AM I?!
"What do you want?" he said to no one. "I'm dieing, tired, and I left the roast on! What is it I am to do? No friends, no family, no one! I'm a midget, burning to death in the desert! Fiberdy gibbit!"
Heat waves danced across Tuatara's vision, and he gazed deep into them, mesmerized by their taunting power. I'm weak, he thought despairingly. I'm hopeless. The only thing I can do is steal; I can't even make a good joke!
Quit the stupid act..... The thought echo in his mind, and he toyed with it. Show them..... the hurt...... and pain.... and-
"NO!" Tuatara woke with a start.
"Just a dream," he murmured,"just a dream. I'm tired, making all my thoughts fuzzy." Though perhaps the voice-thing is right. Perhaps I should stop acting and be my old, witty self. Oh, Father would die! But....Aeros. I've lied, to my best friend......
>< >< >< >< ><
Tuatara awoke. He knew what he was to do. What he was meant to do. He picked himself up and marched toward the rest of the world.... and destiny.....
He made it ten minutes. "Come on, you can do it! I have faith in you! Wait- why am I talking to myself.....? Come on, you can do it, whoo! Your gonna be cool, have a fancy title, be dark and mysterious! Yay......" he said hysterically, face in the sand.
"Hmph." Tuatara heard.
"Great, now I'm hearing things!" he looked up, wild-eyed, right at a man.
"Are you ok son?" the stranger asked. Silence. "I'll take that as a no. Well, get in the wagon and we'll get some water into ya."
Tuatara refocused to take in the sight of a horse and cart behind the man. "Wha....?"
OoC: Hows that for a revamp? Oh ya
Though it feels a bit rushed....... Oh well, take that! ARG! XD
