"Now arriving at Belmont Station, Belmont."

As the intercom played through the train compartment, Kaz got out of his seat and grabbed his backpack and Skateboard as the #253 Caltrain rolled into his stop. With a lurch, it came to a halt and the doors of the train car opened, and he stepped onto the platform and headed towards the stairs that led to the street below. Once down onto the corner of El Camino & Ralston, he got onto his skateboard as the traffic light turned green, signifying his turn to cross.

Kaz was a 16 year-old junior in High School, who had lived all his life in the San Francisco Bay Area. The Japanese-American boy had jet black hair with brown eyes, and was wearing a Supreme hoodie above a white RocketBunny shirt, a pair of jeans, and black Nikes as his current day's attire. He took the local commuter train to and from school everyday, which would only take him about 20 minutes both ways. Both his school and his house were near their respective stops, so by skateboard it only would take him about 40 minutes to each destination. He always did have a passing interests in trains anyways, so his commute rarely bothered him.

Skating up Ralston Ave. he lightly pondered about what he was planning to do that Friday night. He didn't have any friends to hang out with, as they were all busy with one thing or another, surprisingly. He would probably just mess around in his room, playing some PS3 and perhaps starting some of his SAT studying, although he highly doubted it. While smart when he wanted to be and having decent grades, he always seemed to struggle to find motivation to study when he got home.

Arriving at his house, he unlocked the door, passing a greeting to his mom as he entered his room. Placing his backpack on his bed and putting his skateboard in the closet. He pulled a chair from his desk in front of the tv in the front of his room, grabbing a controller and the tv remote as he turned on his Tv and pressed the power button his PlayStation. Looking through his pile of games, he put in "Need For Speed: Rivals" and put on his stereo headphones, before consuming himself the arcade like gameplay of his game for the next few hours.

After stopping to eat diner with his family, he lied down on his bed, pulling up his laptop and opening up a tab for Reddit, a website he always seemed to be spending time on when he had a chance. Scrolling through the frontpage of his personalized feed, he read some articles about the local basketball team, The Golden State Warriors, before noticing a post from a subreddit he usually didn't see.

"r/Spyro"

"Huh, usually that subreddit doesn't make the front page, it must be some big news" he said to himself, clicking on the link as the the new site title flashed before his eyes.

"Spyro The Dragon PS4 remaster LEAKED in New Crash Bandicoot N. game update"

"Well, that's a surprise" Kaz said as he raised a eyebrow at the article headline. Scrolling through the rest of the article, it seemed like the writer wasn't writing crap either. It looked like there genuinely was going to be a new Spyro game coming soon.

Kaz cracked a half smile, letting out a sigh of relief. He had always been an on-and-off fan of that series, and dragons in general, and even had the final game of the "Legend of Spyro" Trilogy. He, as well as many other gamers, always liked to see old series get new leases at life in the modern gaming world. While not his favorite game by any means, it been the baseline for his jump into the game's fanbase, and although not harcore, always enjoyed the casual thread about theories surrounding the storyline of the multiple games that had been released over the years.

"Maybe if my dad gets me a PS4 for my birthday i'll be able to get that game, that would be neat" Kaz said, closing the tab as he scrolled through the rest of his frontpage. His mind though still lingering about the Spyro series. He had a passing thought that came to the center of his attention though, and it was about the ending of the Spyro game he had, and the theories surrounding it in general, which were what exactly had happened to both Spyro and his female companion, Cynder, after the end of the game. His mind had a brief flashback on how Cynder had stated "I love you" before everything went white, and how both dragons were shown flying around Avalar above it's grassy fields in the final seconds of game.

A grunt escaped Kaz. He had always things that ended with cliffhangers. Hopefully, the remake would give a better insight than the half-hearted attempt at an epilogue from the original game.

"Though, I do wonder what it would be like in their place. Fighting monsters and saving the world sounds so much cooler than my life right now" he thought to himself. Kaz always seemed to have these thoughts, that although absurd and complete fantasy, he seemed to be wishing more and more these days to live his life as a one of his game's characters. It certainly would be a more exciting turn from his monotone life these days.

Putting away his computer, Kaz got changed into his nightly clothing, before sliding into his queen sized bed. Reminiscing about his day, mostly worrying about how he had done on his Biology test, his final thoughts before slipping into the realm of dreams was how he wished his life could be spiced up in any way possible, and contently fell asleep for the night.

Welp, that's probably my first real attempt at writing fanfiction so far in my life.
