In the distant future there is a boy named Lucas, a boy who would go through trial and tribulation to save the world from total devastation.
This is not his story.
Rather, this is the story of the events leading up to Lucas' adventure, the events that started a chain reaction of further events which would all lead up to the fall of the Pig King. Call it what you will, but for now, let's call it a domino effect.
This is the story of a young boy named Ninten…
Wait, Ninten? What kind of name is that? Couldn't they have chosen something cooler, like Ken? Er, never mind, let us continue.
The year is 198X, our story takes place in the town of Podunk, a fairly small town in the country of Eagleland. While Eagleland as a whole is home to many landmarks, Podunk on its own isn't much to write home about. Podunk is a fairly small town, with a few houses, some small businesses, and is mainly stitched together by dirt roads. To Ninten however, this was home, and what most towns probably looked like in his mind, then again most of his thoughts were fairly scrambled, it's a mystery as to how the boy became as powerful as he did, but I'm getting ahead of myself.
Ninten, much like the town he lived in, wasn't exactly spectacular in anyway, he most commonly dawned a red baseball cap, a red, white, and blue striped t-shirt, jean shorts, a red scarf, and a pair red sneakers. As for his physical features, well he could be probably fit in with any generic, white, middle-class family. He had fairly clear skin, black hair, and the kind of look on his face that says "I'm content with my current life, for the most part."
Currently, Ninten is on his way home from school, which unluckily for him is another town over, he's not exactly bothered by it however. Pointless details aside, Ninten is currently opening the front door to his house. "I'm home!" he calls out. Ninten's mother can be heard from the kitchen replying, "Welcome home sweetie, now hurry up and come to dinner!" "At least let take off the backpack first!" Ninten replies. As Ninten heads upstairs to his room, he is stopped by his two younger sisters Minnie and Mimmie, both identical twins. Both Minnie and Mimmie sported plain white shirts and orange and purple overalls and pants respectively, to match their hair color, both also sported pairs of pony tails. "Hurry up big bro!" they cry in unison. "Okay, okay, jeez, I just got home!" Ninten replies.
As Ninten enters his room, he notices something peculiar, a blue lamps with a white shade, in the middle of the room, as opposed to where it would normally reside, that being next to his bed. Aside from that everything else remains the same, the bed, the dresser, even the awkwardly placed chair, which resides next the lamp's current location. Choosing to ignore it for now, Ninten throws his backpack onto his bed and runs downstairs to the kitchen.
"Hey mom, did you move the furniture in my room?"
"No, why do you ask?"
"Er, no reason."
"(I think I'm losing it.)" Ninten thinks to himself.
As Ninten sits down at the table, his mother heads back to the stovetop to make sure nothing is burning. "So how was school?" she asks. "Eh, same old, same old," Ninten replies, "although our history teacher decided to go on a rant about psychics for most of the class." Minnie and Mimmie, who are already at the table, begin to shudder in fear. "Psychics are scary!" they cry in unison. "I heard the man on the TV say that psychics might take over the world!" Minnie adds. Mimmie begins to start crying loudly. "Oh hush Minnie, you're scaring your sister. Whatever you've heard on TV isn't going to happen, so long as our police force has anything to say about it!" the mother yells out. "Oh come on mom, you can't seriously think all psychics are bad." Ninten replies.
"Oh I know that dear, but chances are most people with that kind of power can and will misuse it."
"Mom?"
"Yes, Ninten?"
"What if I had psychic powers?"
"Well I'd make damn sure you behave and never use your powers for anything bad!"
"Big brother, are you psychic?" Minnie and Mimmie interject.
"What, no, I'm just asking mom what she would do if I was psychic."
"Ohhhhhhh, okay," Minnie and Mimmie call in unison.
"Well enough of this psychic talk," the mother interjects, "I hope your hungry Ninten, I made your favorite, prime ribs!" "Oh boy!" Ninten calls out. "Hey don't start getting too excited," the mother calls out, "make sure you savor that food, it's not like we get to eat this stuff every day. That goes for you girls as well!" "Okay mommy!" the sisters say in unison. After a bit of ranting, it seems the family is finally ready to start eating, and that's exactly what they do.
"Well I'm done here, I'll be in my room studying." Ninten announces. Ninten proceeds to leave the kitchen and head to his room, not before he's stopped by Minnie and Mimmie. "Wait big bro," the sisters call, "let's play a game!" "I can't, I gotta study for a test coming up." Ninten replies. "But it's Friday, you can just study tomorrow!" Mimmie cries. "Come on big bro, play with us!" Minnie cries as she begins tugging on Ninten's shirt. It doesn't take long for Ninten to cave in, "Ugh, fine, I'll play with you two." He replies. "Yay!" the sisters yell.
Minnie and Mimmie proceed to drag Ninten into Mimmie's room, as she typically hoards all of the toys in her drawer. "So what did you two have in mind?" Ninten asks. "We're gonna play dollies!" the sisters call in unison.
"(Why did I agree to this?)"
Allow me to fast forward a bit, as if I were to tell you all the details, you'd probably be out like a light.
"Can I go now?" Ninten asks.
"No way, not until you start passing me the tea kettle!" Minnie yells.
"Sis, it's 9 o'clock already, I'm tired."
"Oh yeah, well how come mom hasn't come in and said it's our bed time?"
Speak of the devil and he shall appear, or she this case.
The mother proceeds to barge through the door and call, "Kids, it's time for you to scoot off to bed!"
"(Thank god.)" Ninten thinks to himself.
As the mother leaves, Ninten leaves as well, but before he can head out the door, his sisters call out to him. "Wait, big bro! You'll play with us tomorrow, right?" Not wanting to disappoint his sisters Ninten says, "Er, sure, I guess." "Yay!" the sisters call out. During their moment of triumph, Ninten silently heads out the door, down the hall, and to his room. Before Ninten can even make it to his bed, he decides to simply collapse on couch out of pure exhaustion, "Well today was certainly something." he says to himself. As his thoughts on what tomorrow may hold begin to fade, Ninten falls into a deep sleep.
None of his predictions on tomorrow would come close to what would actually happen.
