Hey guys! This is my first fanfic so constructive criticism is appreciated. There will be another extracting job later on but not as high profile as the movie. Maybe if I'm lucky enough so give me ideas!
Disclaimer: I own nothing in this except my ideas. If I did I would probably be off buying something I desperately wanted but could never have sort've stuff…
Life without dreams
Cobb woke up smiling. He felt the sheets of the bed with his hand seemingly enjoying this simple pleasure. He quickly put his hand in his pocket looking for his one totem that assured him that this wasn't a dream. He grasped it tightly and spun it looking at it, as if begging it to fall. The top started to falter and fell. He sighed in happiness.
It has almost been two years since the Fischer Inception. 'Two Years' he thought. He quickly dressed in his casual clothing of straight jeans and a t-shirt and went down stairs to cook breakfast. After twenty minutes, he let an exasperated sigh. It's been two whole years and he still didn't get the hang of cooking. He suddenly heard shouting and was taken out of his thoughts. His two children came running down the stairs quickly hugging him. Phillipa started giggling while James was laughing on the floor. "What is it princess?" Dom asked?
Through her giggles Phillipa answered "Dad! The pancakes are burnt! And your face is all black!" Cobb quickly heard his smoke alarms go off. 'Crap' He didn't realize that all of his food was burning. He quickly got rid of all of the burnt food while Miles was just walking in.
"My, my, quite the mess you made haven't you Dom?" Dom smiled. "Can you watch the children for me while I clean up?" "Of course," Miles answered. "Kids, grab a magazine. Let's try to blow away some of this smoke huh? Let's preserve this old man's lungs for a while longer."
Cobb quickly went into the bathroom to change his charcoaled shirt and wash his face. He laughed. His children were right. He looked terrible. He faintly heard the door bell while he heard the doorbell ring. He faintly heard the two childish voices saying "Uncle Arthur!"
Ariadne looked around. She was at the lake. She saw Cobb sitting on a bench looking out in the lake. She was dreaming Cobb more and more often. She went over and sat next to him. He smiled at her. "How are you?"
"I'm good" she replied. They enjoyed the silence Ariadne put her hand on Cobb's arms. All of a sudden she heard shrieking. "How dare you touch him!" Ariadne turned around to see Mal with a knife in her hand. "Mal no!" Cob shouted. Mal swung the knife.
She woke up and screamed.
Dom went out to see the children. They were playing with Arthur. "Hello Arthur."
Arthur placed James down gently "Hello Cob. How's life?" "Great!" Dom replied. Arthur chuckled. He talked with Dom a while talking and catching up on all the recent events with the team. "How's Ariadne?" Cobb asked. "She's doing just fine. She just finished her degree in architecture. I bet she's pretty happy I bet. Cobb smiled. "Tell her I said hi." Arthur replied "Why don't you do it yourself?" she said that she's coming by to visit tomorrow." "We would love to have her" Cobb said. Miles chuckled "I haven't seen that bright face in ages! She must have dinner with us, but uh Cobb? Let's buy food this time. Don't want to kill her and all that, you see. A lot of legal trouble. Cobb laughed. He loved his
