Chapter 1: The Door
I moved into the house of my old neighbor, Emily, because she vanished. I did like her, her long, flowing red hair but she vanished, with no second thoughts about any of us. I opened the upstairs doors, smelling the fresh air of a semi new house. I still let a tear fall before stopping myself. "She never cared. Stop crying over a person who never truly cared."
I thought to myself, just as i felt something grab me and i fell down a huge black abyss.
I awoke, in a tavern. A beer mug was in my hands, i threw it, throwing it at the door. in walked a few strangers, except for a red head. She didn't recognize me however. I sighed. Just then, a few elves burst in and said, "We are looking for fugitives." "Well, you aren't gonna find any here!" I yelled, and then one charged at me. I rolled sideways and smashed his head into a wall with one hand, while kicking one in the face with my foot, sending him backward. A third one tried to stun me, but i ducked below his stunner and kicked it out of his hand. He looked up at me, shocked just before i pulled out a grenade and stated, "Playtime is over!" I threw it at the elf. It exploded, sending him flying outside.
"Who are you?" A fox came up and asked me. "Me? I'm just a simple guy named Andrew. I came here to find a person named Emily and get out of this crazy world. But i can tag along with you guys if you need me to." I replied, running outside. A giant mecha suit was attacking the town. My eyes glowed as I said, "Bring it on." I floated, and rushed forward at the mech, as it shot rockets at me. I waved my hand and the rockets floated away, off in different directions. I charged at the mech, destroying it in blow. I rushed back, just as a ship, with Emily on it, was taking off. I floated aboard, landing on the roof.
I jumped down, off the roof and in my frustration, broke a board on the deck. I pulled out my hammer and nails. I fixed it up, plus, i added some padding. I took a look outside. The sky was a clear blue. I dropped for a second, blood dribbling out of my mouth. "What was that?" I said aloud. I walked onward, limping forward. I felt blood rush to my head. What is happening to me? I limped all around the ship, watching people and elves go by. I dropped again, tasting blood once more. I whipped it away harder, my hand revealing the red liquid. I growled, my blood in my head rising. I fell, the floor catching me as i blacked out.

Too much for me to write with school and such.
