First Step on Wood
My jaw cracked open, teeth sharp and ready. I blinked through my button eye and gave my silver leg a solid twitch—it actually moved! The screen behind me flickered bright green, casting light over the cluttered tabletop. Right near my feet lay a flat wooden toy knife marked 'LIL' HUNTER'. I leaned forward, kicked my shiny peg foot against it with a soft tap, and gave a gruff little scoff. I'm awake, I can stand, and this wooden deck belongs to me now.
