My ARK: Survival Evolved Fanfic My ARK: Survival Evolved fanfic; Chapter 1: Beached When i opened my eyes, I saw nothing but a blindingly bright orange splodge that covered my entire vision. Instantly, I shielded my eyes and rolled over to one side, before I could be fully blinded,although there were still discoloured spots obstructing my vision. When I tried to get up, I discovered that my arms and legs simply didn't have the strength to move. I flopped heavily back onto the ground, exhausted. When I tried for the second time I managed to get unsteadily onto my feet, and surveyed the area around me in shock... Looking around me, I noticed that I was stood on a flat beach, peaceful waves lapped the shore, shining a brilliant blue. I began to walk towards the beautiful shoreline, desperate for water... I was expecting the seawater to be salty, like it should be, but when I cupped my hands and drunk the cool, crystal clear liquid, I was surprised to find that it was, indeed fresh and sweet! When I bent my arm to brush off the loose sand that I had collected while I was laying down, I noticed with horror that there was something stuck inside my arm! It was shaped like a small diamond, with many smaller diamonds inside of it, each one shining a different colour. When I brought it up to my face to take a further look at it, a blinding blue beam of pure light shot out of the core of the device, and into my eyes. After a few seconds, some sort of holographic screen filled my vision. The top left part of it was labelled 'inventory' and it had one item inside it; a specimen implant. It looked exactly like the strange crystal in my arm, so I assumed that it was exactly that. The bottom-left of the screen was labelled 'quick item slots'. Since I had no idea how I could use that, I moved on. The bottom-right of the screen was labelled 'statistics', and this showed me how much of each vital stat I had, and the maximum amount of that stat I could have. I noticed that water was at about 54% and was dropping faster than I expected. Just as I was about to draw my arm away from my eyes, I noticed that there was a small tag above my statistics labelled 'Engrams'. I tried to press the button physically, but my hand just went straight through the screen.I tried staring directly at the button, and to my surprise, a new screen flashed across my vision! At the top a large blue box said: 'Engram Points To apply: 8' and below that was a large list of items that I could presumably 'unlock' with my engram points,

Beyond The Door A blinding light filled Tom's vision as he stepped through the huge, ancient door that he'd found earlier in amongst the ruins of an old villa on the coast of Spain. Once his vision cleared he realised that his surroundings had changed dramatically! The sweet-smelling, humid air hung over the flower-dotted plains he found himself sitting in, and leaves from the nearby forest sailed swiftly through the breeze-which was rapidly dwindling to a small gust every few minutes. As he stood up and began to wander around the area, he caught sight of a strange multi-coloured bird-like creature soaring through the cloudless sky At seemingly impossible speeds for a creature of it's size! Tom decided this place was full of wonders and brilliant things that he never thought he would see, but most of all, he wondered how he would get home... After a little while of walking-he didn't know how long because he didn't have a watch-he came to the remains of a ruined building, just like the one he'd found before he arrived here.Its mossy, cobbled walls stretched above him and the remains of a sleeping area hung half on the first floor, half on the ground.Tom came to an almost exact replica of the door he had used to travel to this strange new world he had come to,though, unfortunately no light shone through the cracks in its ancient, gnarled surface. *this is a W.I.P and may be changed so please do not comment too negatively as this is only a rough draft* Thanks, Jacob
