12 12. Whale hello there.

Moon.

Caelicetus POV

'That was very childish of me…', I thought, well it needed to be thrown away but I could use something less, just less. What is done is done.

I closed every wormhole I opened, one smaller but very intense blue beam passed through and continued its way into empty space, oh this is Godzilla. Did he just… yuk. Very, very sad for him.

I froze as I saw a chubby human arm cleanly cut at the shoulder and floating around, it wasn't dirty or anything just not where it should be or the rest of the human was missing. 

'Did someone actually put his whole arms through a wormhole? On what level of stupid is this… Ah yes, human.', I thought amused as I grabbed the arm. It was small but with this, I know that I'm 434 human arms in length. Yay. I'm a big boy.

Then, I suddenly opened my maw and ate the chubby arm, it was really nothing compared to my body barely a crumb. It tasted on my tongue like a combination of venison and high-quality pork but was very greasy at the same time. 

'Oh dear, did I just eat human flesh like it was some sort of cocktail sausage?', I realised but I didn't feel anything outside of the norm. If a tiny bit hungry.

Now that I think about it, why should I? I'm not the same species. The only real thing we have in common is being sapient. And why would a sapient life form be more valuable than another? Also, meat is meat.

Now, back on cleaning the Moon of human trash left, the flags with faded colour, the different robots, a faded Bible, the human astronaut's footprints, nobody useful needs them, so they are now gone forever and ever.

'Hmmm, what do I do?', I wondered as my stomachs grumbled, I flapped my fins and clicked, 'Okay food it is, let's try eating in the thin atmosphere here.'

I started to swallow what was present in the atmosphere so not much and I looked at the rainbow-coloured dark matter around me and got an idea. Maybe I could eat it and what does it taste like? 

I grabbed it with my gravity and dragged it with a bit of difficulty in my wide-open maw, it could interact with my body when I interacted with it this way, that I already knew.

And well it tasted kinda funny. Like strawberry cotton candy, salted caramel and cola but at the same time not. It tasted like I would imagine a rainbow would.

'Feel full.', I thought and stopped my feeding while I instinctively emitted pulses of bluish energy from my body, this was happening since my awakening.

It was the same energy that I emitted before and that I now recognised as a type of 'life force', it was found in celestial bodies, not all of them like Deimo and Phobos, something that was nearly absent here, only the core had it and it would have been the same if it wasn't there in the first place.

I was at the same time blowing way more ordinary matter than I actually ate. I already made more than ten Moon atmospheres.

'So I can even alter dark matter, can I do it in reverse?', I questioned as I started to increase the gravity of the Moon, just enough to keep the newly formed gas in the newly forming atmosphere of the Moon.

The core was already showing signs of improvement, it was getting hotter, a weak connection forming with me, interesting. It was different from Mars, this one felt more like a pet.

Hmm, I should also do this to every planet and moon big enough in the solar system, gaseous or not, to see if I could make this and potentially make life happen.

I swam around the Moon, my tail fin and four front flippers making long golden trails behind me as I gazed at the boring empty and dusty grey soil of Earth's only natural satellite.

I made the Moon spin on itself in a certain manner to temporarily hide its visible side, showing the hidden side to Earth for the first time.

I'm very careful with what I'm doing, one tiny mistake and I could mess up its orbit, which I wouldn't be able to easily fix and it will probably be different than before.

In the worst case it will make the Moon go kiss its genitor, Earth, in a fiery explosion of death and apocalypse and I'm not sure that Godzilla will be able to stop that, but I'm sure he will be able to survive the impact, on the other fin/hand I don't know about him doing the same in outer space. 

Yes, I could destroy Earth just like this, very easily at that, but why should I? It's such a huge waste, at least that's what my instincts tell me.

It was a hard and tedious process, the Moon is huge after all, and I never shifted the rotation of something this massive and with the necessity to do this with this level of accuracy. 

I started to draw or more accurately sculpt the visible side of the Moon while I was still in the middle feeding, one star, two three, four, five etc until there were fifteen, all connected in a particular order with straight lines. It was a certain constellation connected to me. It should be visible from Earth.

Circles, half circles and other geometrical forms were also sculpted deeply on the Moon's surface, they were what humans would call crop circles. I made three of them and they were smaller than the constellation.

I made a smaller T-pose statue similar to the one I made back home but with two pairs of eyes and I also sculpted it in braille (Whale hello there human.), I learned it in my human life, for my late mother she was suffering from deafblindness. 

I made the text way smaller than the crop circles and it was just below the constellation, it should still be visible from Earth.

I looked at my creation, wondering how the human will react and teleported back to Mars with a crack.

"Home sweet, home.", I said as I whisper and clicked to announce that I was back. The planet seemingly vibrating in happiness.

I was above a lake, the lily pad triops-fish swimming around they are 1,53 human arms in length, crustaceans with four long spindly legs covered in mushrooms ones with a tail ending in a claw and clover leaf-like structure in its back while the others only had longs spikes on their back. Their main body being approximately 20,34 human arms in length.

'I love Mars.', I thought as I gazed at the ever-changing life of my planet.

Third POV

"-is why the Democratic People's Republic of Korea officially declared war to Mars and all of its inhabitants.", the TV presenter, a young caucasian woman named Karen read, she was tired, her beauty sleep was interrupted, her make-up barely hiding it.

'What in the actual fuck happened tonight!?', she thought in utter shock at the bullshit she was reading and announcing while her blond eyebrow twitched. Each news seemed more insane than the last, she was fuming.

North Korea declaring war to a dead rock and its nonexistent inhabitants, okay maybe this one seemed possible. This didn't seem so far-fetched.

But 40 years old astronaut wastes, that were left on the Moon by Appolo 11 astronauts falling from the sky all around the world through white holes, what the fuck were these things in the first place?

All satellites around the Moon disconnect at the same time. They were satellites around the Moon? She didn't even know that.

Then the Moon apparently made two 180°, the first showing its hidden face, the second making it go back to how it should be but it now sported strange markings and symbols that dared to go against her worldviews. She will hide all of this fallacy from her little Timmy. And will fail miserably, she can not hide the Moon from her child eternally.

She finished everything she had to say, she stood up, furious and started to walk away, quick and strong in her step but she fell and cried out in outrage, her stupidly tall red stilettos heel broke, not making it possible for her to walk properly.

While on the Internet and in most parts of the world one word would describe the current happening: Chaos.

Some show this as a divine message from their God, some as the advent of the Apocalypse predicted by the Maya, and some as a warning about an alien invasion.
