Hello. My name is Morbius A. Verde, but you can just call me Morbius. I am from a small insignificant little town in Oregon. I was just your ordinary, average teen, nobody important, didn't have a care in the world. As my last name suggests, I am part Italian. I am an only child. My dad died in a massive car accident when I was about three. My mom and I moved to the town I live in after that. This is a story of how my life changed from being that of the average guy to that of the savior of an entire world.

The story begins, as many stories begin, at home. My dad was a multi-millionaire, but we lived in a small suburban home on an average street. We didn't want to be known as rich because people in my town hate rich folk. I was sitting on my couch, watching one of my favorite cartoon shows of all time, The Fairly Odd Parents. I was watching one of the "pre-Poof" episodes, as I like to call them The Boy Who Would Be Queen. My mom walked in and saw me watching the show. Knowing that I would ignore her if she said something to me, she muted the TV.

"Morbius, when this show's done, I need you to walk down to Albertson's and buy some things. There's a list on the table. I have to go down to the school for a while. I'll try to be back by around nine tonight." (She was my school's secretary at the time)

"Ok, Mom."

She un-muted the TV and left. I picked up the remote and checked the menu. My other favorite cartoon, Danny Phantom was going to be on in an hour. They were ones that I had not seen before.

The show ended. I picked up my keys and walked out to my car. Even though we're rich, I still had to put on the facade of being poor. I had a small Chevy Tahoe.

Albertson's isn't very far from my house. I could have gone on my bike to save gas, if my mom had only wanted small items. However, she wanted me to get around fifteen large items.

I arrived at the store around fifteen minutes later. There were about seven other people shopping there. I grabbed a cart and walked down the halls. I had a strange feeling that I was being watched.

"Hey, Morbius."

I was so distracted by the shopping and worrying that I jumped a bit. I turned around.

"Oh, hey Liz."

Elizabeth Randall was my only true friend in this town. She took martial arts with me, she had the same interests that I did (Especially the love of Butch Hartman's shows), she went to the same school that I did and she was the only one in the whole town I could trust with my secrets. In fact, she was the only one who knew of my actual wealth.

"What are you doing here? Isn't Danny Phantom on in about thirty minutes?"

I looked at my watch. Sure enough, she was right.

"Oooo! I better hurry then. I only have to find two more things. Say, are you doing anything tonight?"

She pondered over the question, and replied, "Not that I'm aware of."

"Cool! Wanna come to my house and watch the Danny Phantom episodes? Maybe afterwards we can play Call of Duty IV."

A big smile played itself over her face. She pulled out her cell and called her mom. She walked with me, telling her mom where she would be for the next hour or two.

I eventually finished the shopping. It was getting dark. I looked at my watch. There were twenty more minutes until Danny Phantom was on. We got in and drove off. I still had that dread feeling of foreboding. Liz noticed and asked what was wrong.

"I can't shake the feeling that something life-changing is about to happen."

"Hmmm…"

We were silent for the rest of the trip, listening to the rain that had started falling. We arrived home with about four minutes to spare. There were about four bags in the car. Liz helped me bring them in.

After we were done, we sat down. I turned on the TV. We had about two minutes before Danny Phantom came on. For those last two minutes, we talked for a bit.

"Anything new with you, Morb?"

I smiled. She was the only other one, besides my mom, who called me that. Everyone else just called me "Greeny."

"Well, nothing much. Like I said, I recently got Call of Duty IV. That game was UBER AWESOME! Have you played it yet?"

"Yes I have. I completely agree with you!"

The Danny Phantom theme music began to play. We stopped talking and began to watch. After the theme song was done, something strange happened. The TV went black for a couple of seconds. Then The Fairly Odd Parents theme began to play. Liz and I stared at each other, with a confused look on our faces. As soon as it stopped, the TV went black again. We had turned out the lights in the room, so it was completely dark in our house.

"Hmmm. Must be the channel," I said. I picked up the remote and tried changing the channel. Same result on every channel. I tried turning on a light, but none of them were working.

"Power outage?" Liz suggested.

"I don't think so," I replied. Liz noticed that I was staring at the TV. She turned and saw the same thing that I did.

The TV screen had begun to emit a soft light. Yellow stars were sparkling. What appeared to be a whirlpool of clouds shot out from the TV and began to reach out for us. A wind had begun, blowing towards the whirlpool. Liz grabbed my hand reflexively. I looked around for something to hold on to. I told Liz to hold onto something sturdy. I ran for the front door's frame and grabbed a hold of that. Liz grabbed a hold of the wall. Everything was flying around by that time. I could barely hear myself think. I could see Liz's hair blowing in front of her face. I noticed her grip was beginning to slip.

"HOLD ON, LIZ!" I shouted as loud as I could. She looked like she was going to faint at any time.

She let go. She floated up towards the whirlpool. She entered it and disappeared.

"LIZ!" My grip had begun to slip as well. I tried to get a better grip. I succeeded, but only for a couple of moments.

I let go. I rose up and hovered over my room for a brief moment. Then I plummeted down towards the whirlpool. I screamed, and lost consciousness.
