Alex Barakku chapter 1
Beginnings part I
It seemed like a normal day for Alex, having breakfast, getting ready for school, until he started cycling to school. An alley that the fifteen year old had to go down every day to get to school was different. It was different every week. "Bloody vandals.." He muttered under his breath. He stopped to text a friend on his terrible Nokia, and looked up in time to see a seagull fly into the fence.
Alex was expecting to hear a splat as the seagull crashed, but it didn't. The seagull had disappeared. Being the idiot that he was, he threw his white BMX into the fence, and that, like the bird, had gone. So Alex decided to dive into the purple fence that was making things disappear.
A week later Alex woke up, in a bed. Not knowing where he was, but everything seemed brighter. More light everywhere. He looked out of a window, from his bed, and saw a bright blue sky. 'Where am I?' Alex mused. He looked around the hospital room more, and saw a blonde teen with a red sweater on, half asleep. Alex sat up as she nearly fell off her chair and hid his laughter as best he could. The teen stood up and said " Hi! I'm Charlotte! Who are you?" "I'm Alex" He paused, "Where am I exactly?" She smiled and replied. "In hospital silly! After you fell on top of my attacker, and KO'd yourself on the floor, I carried you here.. Thank you for saving my life by the way." She smiled again.
Charlotte tilted her head slightly, "So.. Where are you from?" She asked. Alex hesitated. He explained to her what had happened with the bird, and the bike. She looked even more confused. He didn't know where he was, so he couldn't point out on an atlas or anything. He sighed and thought 'my phone! I can use my phone to show her where I'm from!' He asked for his clothes, and found his phone, he smiled, and went on it. It suddenly sparked and broke in his hand. Somehow it didn't like this new place, where ever it was, and destroyed itself. Charlotte looked at him in confusion, and asked "What was that? What were you going to do with it?" Alex sighed again. "Don't worry. What is this country or place that I am in?" Charlotte laughed and said "You're in Vale. Are you from another world?" Alex smiled, and said, "Not world, I think, but realm." Charlotte looked at him blankly.. "A-another realm? I heard only a few could cross between them, but you're not one of them are you?
Y-you can't be!" Alex stared at her. 'One of them?' He wondered, and replied "I don't know what one of 'them' is." She shrugged, not really explaining herself, held up one finger and said, "One moment, I've gotta tell a doctor you're awake." And she ran off out of the ward doors and down the corridor. Minutes later, she returned with a shorter copper haired kid with thick rimmed glasses and a balding doctor called 'Dr. Free'. The doctor told Charlotte and the copper haired kid to wait outside, while he did a few tests. "Before we start, we don't know your name. Would you mind telling us it?" Alex smiled as he reminisced of all the Pokémon games he used to play, back in before 'The Fence Incident'. Alex told him "Alex Barakku". The doctor knelt, and stared into Alex's eyes. 'Purple' the doctor mused. And typed out Alex's name and eye colour on the blue holographic keyboard that he held in front of him. "Wait!" Alex said quickly. "Purple?! Are you sure? I thought I had blue eyes.." Dr. Free looked at him like he was deranged and sighed. "Very few people have blue eyes. It's not possible for you I have blue eyes, unless you're one of 'them'." He let the doctor continue doing his tests such as blood pressure, heart rate, and so on. Eventually he let the copper haired kid and Charlotte back into the room.
A/N I understand this is my first story, but please rate fairly, and honestly.
