-AU this is a story from another site I post on, I will be updating both around the same time, if I remember too, and they will be weekly or monthly updates, depending on my writers block. P.S. My grammar is bad during the first two or three chapters, I know and am sorry.-
Thursday mourning, what a great day to start back from winter break. It was a cold mourning, I was wishing for some kind of snow, but it didn't happen, we only got one day of snow over the break, now its all melted. Oh, sorry, I guess I should tell you who I am, my name is Zachary Clay Jones, call me Jonesy or Zach, but back to what i was saying. When I finally got out of bed, dressed in a night shirt and boxers, I got a shower, yes this is all important-if you ask. It's when i get out of the shower did i notice that something isn't right. The T.V. when i turned it on wasn't working right, at first i thought that Direct TV shut it off like they do every one or two days at the beginning of the month. So I went though the routine, wake my sister up, put the dog outside, get my littlest sister, get on the bus, sleep. I don't remember much about the rest of that hour, except that my friend Conrad got a grape juice thrown at him by one crazy girl. So after my first period class, math with Terry Chin-a Chinese guy from Missouri, its hard to understand him-I dropped my stuff off at Mrs. Carters room, and walked my way down the schools hallways full of making-out, and chewing rednecks, I made it to the library, the only place where my friends hang out, and where you can get coffee or hot chocolate for a dollar. I walked up to my friend Shelby, who was wearing his usual green Vikings jacket-yes I'm a Rowan county Viking, AND PROUD-said to him,"Have any more weird dreams over the break?"
"YEESSS! You were a badass in one off them, though for some reason were the son of god with the power of death." He said.
"I understand the death part, but dude, what the fucks up with your mind? I am a fucking demon, or at least a human, no angel or Son of God."
"I know, but man, you were decked out in like twenty different weapons, plus a sweet knife that looked like a shark-"
"I know what that knife is."
"Oh, you've seen it? Okay, but still we were fighting Demons, and looking completely like someone from Devil May Cry."
"So better than the zombie one?"
"Way better."
I laughed at this, he is always having these dreams, and they are funny sometimes."Oh, by the way, have you noticed anything strange?"
"Yeah you're wearing a white shirt."
"Besides that. Sheldon."
"Not a thing Zachamore."
We both broke out laughing at this. we chose these little nicknames to poke fun at each others names, and it made us friends this is about the time things went weird, all with one announcement. "Zachary Jones, come to the office please."
"I'll see you later Sheldon." I say as i walk away slinging my backpack over my shoulders.
"Later, OH and I have to tell you something next break!" He said with his emphasized voice.
"Yeah yeah, ok, I'll be there, maybe." I say with a faint smile and turn the corner though the double doors closest to the office. Now is about the time I should tell you that I am a complete nobody, no joke, when i walk down the halls, no one notices me, except for a few, and some even think I'm part of the to say, it was an uneventful trip. When i walked into the office i was surprised to see Mrs. Howes- my school principal-waiting for me to enter her office. Remember when I said things got weird? Good, because suddenly, everything went into some kind of slow-motion, like everyone was moving through caramel instead of air. All but me. Now, I know you think this is when some weird monster comes and knocks down a wall, but nope, not this time. Instead everything slowed down forever, until time was at a stop, which I knew to be impossible, if time came to a stop, space would implode, taking the universe with it. So that was out, or its true I never found out. I moved through the school seeing everything in a kind of freeze frame. If time was moving it would of been hours. After what thought was about seven hours I realized how much I, as a person, truly cared for any kind of voice besides my own, even if it was Littletons-an annoying jackass around here-and then I needed, as a way to stay sane, to listen to my phone. It wouldn't light up, even if i tried taking out the battery and putting it back in, nothing worked.
Despite all of this, I still took a nap. Yes, i shouldnt have done that, anything could of happened to me, death, kidnapped, slave trade, anything is possible. But nothing happened. I simply woke up and went on. About this time, I started peeking into rooms, seeing if anything funny was going on, i made it to room 178, and saw the computer i use, daily, was running with noise and looked to be playing something. I walked forward and when i got close to it and my phone lit up. On the screen was what looked like a cross with the two side bits connecting to the top to make some arrow head kind of shape. It asked if i wanted to accept a call from an Unknown number. After what felt forever of not talking or hearing anyone i instantly pushed accept. The voice spoke two sentences. "Don't tell anyone. You have been chosen to Travel."
