Hey Purple here, I made another story called The Orb but I didn't really like the way it was going so I decided to change up my writing style this pov is more about what the main character is thinking more than what other people are saying. I feel like this chapter was a little rushed but hopefully you like it. :) "Don't go alone take this" *Received Badge 1st chapter!*

Anyone like school?

I've always hated it, I found my real joy in gaming. Now don't get me wrong I wanted to have friends but most of the people were fake to say the least I found myself more mature then most of them, the only thing we really had in common where games especially minecraft. I remember the first time I ever played minecraft, I spent a good ten minutes trying to figure out the control's and just when I broke a tree the sun started to set I got up against a tree and used the wood planks to cover myself against the tree and sat there for the whole night waiting. Ever since then I've been playing minecraft on different servers with different mods. It's been a game that I could always come back to. Except I always had life to deal with, School was always tough and I didn't have a family at least not a real one. I had a step dad and step mom but the only one in that "family" that I really cared about was my little sister Ellie. Well I say little but she's only one year younger then me, oh yeah I forgot to introduce myself I'm your narrator and main character Thomas! Nice to meet you, what? I'm breaking the fourth wall too much? Ah sorry well let me at least describe myself. I'm quite tall for my age i'm well built and stand around 5'9 and I have brown hair. Now my little sister Ellie is probably one of the cutest girls at our school she stands at 5'6 with long brown hair, and cyan blue eyes. I usually eat my lunch alone on the top of our school anime style mostly because I don't have a lot of friends, I stood on the bar and looked at the back of the school. There was a long stretch of golden forest most of the leaves yellow or golden brown. Man I love fresh air there's something about it that's just so….. I don't know how to explain it. What are those glitters, are those people? No, do they think I'm trying to commit suicide? I'll humor them, I stick out a foot and retract it causing a little shuffle in the crowd.

*Bang* I turn around to see Ellie running towards me. Does she really think I'm gonna jump?
"Thomas don't jump!"

"I'm not gonna jum-" I lost my footing can you believe it? I'm actually gonna die. I don't wanna die yet…. I want to live longer and make friends and…. I slowly begin to fall off the rail, I reach out my hand to grasp the sun. Someone grabs my hand, I look up to see Ellie I notice tears streaming down her face. I see that she's desperately trying to pick me up.

"That's not going to help Ellie. You're gonna have to drop me." Maybe she could've held me long enough for an adult to come and help me up, like one of those saving a baby adrenaline rushes but that's probably unlikely.

"NO! Don't say that big brother I won't let you die, I'll hold you up for a year if that's how long it'll take!" Her voice is breaking now, Damnit I'm starting to cry a little

"Don't worry about me Ellie," I loosen my grasp a little bit. "You'll become a great person, remember to stay away from bad things, make good friends, and marry a good guy. Also don't be discouraged by anyone stay bright…"
"Tho-" I let go of Ellie's hand and begin to fall slowly It seems like i'm screwed huh? A short story never even made it to sixteen years old. Hah that's kinda sad, This is possibly the most stupid thing someone has ever done. Those are my last thoughts as I hit the ground and…. Die.

Where… am I? I look around and notice i'm in black, that's it just black, I look at my hands and there blue and see through, does that mean I'm a soul? If that's what that means then does that mean I'm dead? Or do I get a second chance? I look around and notice a glint of red a long ways away better get moving.

I'll take any criticism or anything, please tell me how to improve my work.
