Found by a friend in a creek near KC, Kansas. Never seen anything like this. Also, I'm new to all of this so I don't have the slightest clue what I'm looking at... Is it even real????

I agree. It's a septarian nodule, aka "turtle stone".

But it would sort of like to be a turtle :)

 

That's what I thought the first time I found one.

Another vote septarian. 

Every single fossil you see is a miracle set in stone, and should be treated as such.
