As The Cub was thinking about this it suddenly noticed movement on the edge of its vision and looked to see what it was. As it turned it noticed that this movement was similar to the swaying of plants but almost very similar to the liquid that came out the The Cubs mouth, as it now knows to call it, so The Cub decided to call this new thing swaying liquid. While The Cub observed this it noticed it had a dry feeling from inside its mouth and it had an extreme longing for this new swaying liquid. This longing was almost unbearable to the point where The Cub couldn’t take it much more.
The Cub quickly thought about the object before with the giant hole in it. It couldn't help but think that this must be the way out of the transparent layer. The Cub suddenly had the urge to make its body slam into the layer. But The Cub remembers the pain it felt every time its body slammed into the floor when it was learning to walk or move its head. It couldn't help but feel hesitant about doing so but the longing felt overrode any thoughts about fearing pain and made it determined to attempt it at least once.
The Cub took a few steps back away from the side of the swaying liquid and prepared its body to rush at the layer that was closest to the swaying liquid. After it got ready without even thinking it rushed at the layer and slammed into it. When The Cub slammed into the layer it used its head first which caused a pain beyond anything it could comprehend after the impact. The Cub could only writhe in pain without even thinking if it made a hole or not. Soon while The Cub was in pain the pain waned off and the black layers, that The Cub has recently named eyelids, came and blocked his view and dissipated the pain it was feeling.
The Cub soon came to and opened its eyes again and noticed it was the start of a new cycle based on the light in the area. The Cub still felt some pain in its head from the impact but it was now bearable. The Cub soon got up and looked at where it impacted against the transparent layer. Where the seamless transparent layer once was is now riddled in cracks everywhere. The Cub knew that this means it made progress but it then remembered the pain it felt after the impact and couldn't help but shudder. Then it once again saw the swaying liquid again and felt the extreme longing again. The Cub couldn’t help but feel the need to try again but the pain from before kept it from trying.
Soon 3 more cycles went by and The Cub couldn’t stop staring at the swaying liquid and the longing only kept getting stronger and stronger by the day and now the only thoughts in The Cub’s mind was how to break out, but also how not to feel that pain again. Eventually The cub decided to begrudgingly try again, but this time turn at the end so its body hit instead of its head. The Cub stepped back again to prepare to rush the layer again. As it stared at its target again it couldn’t help but feel its nervousness mounting. In the end its longing conquered the nervousness and The Cub charged the wall again. As The Cub was about to reach the layer it jumped and turned its body to the front instead of its head.
When The Cub’s body hit the layer it once again felt pain but this time was different. This time it was slightly less painful but it then had a new sensation that it suddenly had something it needed ejected out of its mouth. While this was also happening The Cub also noticed that it didn’t bounce back this time but instead kept going. As The Cub landed it spent the next short while trying to gather the thing that it lost upon impact. After it was done doing so and only had some lingering pain it noticed a new sensation.
The Cub’s body felt a soft and damp feeling coming from the ground instead of the old hard and cold of the ground in its confine. The Cub looked up and noticed it was laying on top of the small green plants it saw before. This is where the soft feeling came from. The Cub then looked closer and saw something new, there was a brown layer under the small green plants and that's where the damp feeling came from.
The Cub only spent a little time thinking about this before the longing for the swaying liquid returned. It shot up onto its feet ignoring the pain it still felt and bound towards the swaying liquid. When The Cub reached the swaying liquid it dove its entire body in. The Cub didn’t know what to do to satisfy the longing, only to satisfy it. The Cub soon felt the liquid run across its entire body and the liquid entered its mouth. As the liquid entered The Cub’s mouth it couldn’t help but swallow and it noticed that this was satisfying the longing it felt. The Cub just kept swallowing the liquid but soon it realised something was wrong.
While it was satisfying the longing before the feeling of lacking something like when it hit the wall came back. This caused The Cub to panic and start failing around. The Cub realised that with it swallowing the liquid it couldn’t get the other thing that it needed. The Cub started panicking more and the need for the other thing kept feeling stronger and stronger. The Cub soon also noticed it could no longer see where the swaying liquid ended, or where it came in at.
The Cub soon started to feel pain in its body that was progressively getting worse. The Cub soon noticed it had less and less power in its movements and its eyelids started to fall. The Cub couldn’t help but feel annoyed. “I had only just come out but now I will have to wait for another cycle!”. For some reason The Cub noticed that this thought seemed to have been different and seemed like it was transmitted but as for how, why, or to what The Cub was unsure.just as The Cub was about to lose all feeling and its eyelids closing it felt a force move it, but just as the force came The Cub passed out.
