Snippet #978020

Kiiya smiled like a little girl smile and giggled as she watched the expression on his face. He didn't know what starts were obviously. She didn't like that he was like most people, people who thougth they were just tiny specks of light that couldn't harm anyone. "Oh dear old man, you are way off. The thing that rises during the day for out other selves, that thing is the Sun. It's the star that keeps all life on this planet going. It's what provides us energy and life. Without it," she shrugged as if it was nothing, "we would all die horrible deaths. The Earth would spin out of it's gravity and we'd most likely crash into another planet and die or something," she explained. "Or, plants would stop making oxygen and we'd all suffocate. Even worse, we'd plummet into an ice age worse than all other ice ages."
"You know, stars are very massive burning balls of gas. They're so hot, they fuse and split atoms. And, when they die, they expand hugely, swallowing everything near them and then shrink into a very heavy gas ball or they explode and shatter everything around it. Some even turn into black holes," she said darkly with a smile on her face. "If you were to go near a star, you would burn up instantly and die!" Kiiya began to skip again and swing her arms by her sides. "Each and every speck op there is a huge star millions of light years away. Most are bigger then the Sun, which is maybe a million times bigger than this tiny Earth we live on." She began to whitsle and pressed her gun to her lips with a smirk. "And each and everyone is out to support us and then kill us," she said ominously with a sadistic smile on her lips. She loved the massive brilliance of stars. Everything about them made he shiver from her head to her toes. She wanted to be a star, be the one who dictates life and death.
