He sat up in bed, sweat covered his face as if he just finished a ten
mile run. That dream had come to him again. In the dream he was always
standing a black room, atleast he thought it was a room. The walls seemed
to glow as if tiny lights were inside them. He glances down and sees
something red all over his shirt. He knows right away that it's blood
because he can smell the metallic odor that blood has. Out of nowhere a
figure appears, it's covered by a red glow and he can't tell if it's human
or not. A voice fills the room, it's very weak and he has a hard time
making out what it's saying. "Don't.... pink.... stream... can... this..."
That's how the dream always is but he is getting use to it. It's the third time this week that he's had it but he's been having it on and off for the last couple of weeks. He gets out of bed and goes into the bathroom to take a quick shower. After his shower he walks into his room wearing nothing but a towel. He opens his dresser and pulls out a pair of boxers. He drops the towel and slips on the boxers and then he heads over to the closet. He opens the door and grabs a pair of jean shorts off a hanger and grabs a white t-shirt. He quickly puts them on and heads back into the bathroom where he shaves. He hates to shave but he hates having facial hair even more. After he shaves, he goes back into his room and grabs a black shirt out of the closet and puts it in his backback. He then reaches under the bed and grabs his sandles and a pair of gym shoes. He puts the gym shoes in the backpack and then he puts the sandles on.
"Marcus, breakfast is ready." a female voice said from another room.
"Coming mom." Marcus shouts. He knew she fixed eggs and bacon and he hated eggs and bacon. He leaves his room and heads to the kitchen. The smell of bacon filled the room and it almost made him sick. "I'm running late mom, so I'm just going to grab a cold bagel and a bottle of juice."
"Are you sure you can't grabs a quick bite of what I made for you?" she asked him with a hint of disappointment in her voice.
"Sorry mom but I have to get to school early since it's my turn to start the computers up."
"Okay, I hope you have a good day at school" she said. "I'll be home late tonight because I've got a date with Todd tonight so you will have to fix your own dinner. There is some Easy Mac in the pantry and I made some patato salad last night."
"Thanks mom, I know the potato salad will rock like it always does." he said with a grin. He knew she wouldn't be home tonight because she never came home after a date with Todd and he didn't want to think about what they do.
He walked to the door and grabed his keys from the peg board. It was another hot day, probably around 90 degrees. He reached into his backpack and pulled out his aviator glasses. A gentle breeze started blowing and it felt good on Marcus' tanned skin. He walked for two block, trying to avoid bumping into people. He turned right at the corner and walked four blocks to the school parking lot.
He walked to the side entrance to the school and saw his only female friend, Katie, siting on the steps. She always waited for him and she always wanted help with homework. "Hey Marcus, can you help me with the biology assignment from yesterday?" she asked.
"I can't, I have to go to the computer room and I'm already running late. Try asking Simon, he is better than me at biology." Simon was Marcus' best friend but they hardly had time to hang out since Simon started playing football.
He hurried up the steps and went down to the basement so he could get a couple books out of his locker. He then went all the way up to the second floor and went through the second door on the left. The computer room had 28 computers. The tables were in a U shape and there was also two tables right in the middle of the U. Marcus hits the light switch to his left. He heads over to each table and flips the power switch on the long power strip, which they had to use since there wasn't enough outlets in the room. There was a power strip at each table and he had to turn them all on.
The computers came to life with a soft humming sound. Marcus looks out the window and notices something really strange. The sky has turned black but it appears that it's only around the school because Marcus can see blue sky in the distance. Suddenly it starts to thunder and then a bolt of lighting flashes in the sky. The light in the room seems to have changed as weel and Marcus looks up and the lights have changed from their yellowish glow to a light pink glow. "Woah, something really weird is happening." he thought out loud. He looks at the computer and notices they also have a light pink glow to them. He starts walking to the computer to see if he can figure out what's happening. He reaches down to grab the mouse when a loud voice fills the room, "Electroshocker!" Marcus' body suddenly flies through the air and slams into the wall. His body falls to the floor and everything turns black for him.
