Pilu

Pilu flew through the air. She glanced at the ground speeding beneath her. Rocks and tufts of foliage came closer. She extended an arm towards the earth. Then she hit. Hard. And rolled.

“Oof,” she thought she heard the ground say, before she blacked out.

When she opened her eyes, she couldn’t see her body. She wasn’t invisible; her body simply looked like earth. Her limbs were made of dirt, and grass grew on her forearms. When she stood up, her torso became a tree trunk.

She laughed, and rivers poured from her ears, melting her feet into the soil.
