Weight Of The World
I Wish
A boy with dark hair stared out into the sand, his younger brother -Elijah- left him behind when his tire blew out while racing with the Maruders. He push his dark hair out of the way and watched for the Dune Hopper, the ride his brother used often. His open dress shirt blew in the little wind the Wasteland gets before he put his hands over his head and kept watching. Waiting was a waste of time, a boring task that had no fun or joy. He groaned and walked back into the Forgotten City, a new city that popped up after the Metal Head problem was under control. The city was kinda slow today, it was too hot to do anything. It wasn't fast moving like Hevan or Spargus but clam and steady like the Icelands, he stopped in front of a shop and looked in.
A heavy man was washing dishes looking very sweaty and bored; a group of girls were talking outside of the shop. They each had scarfs over their faces to aviod the sand. The boy just kept on walking, girls were also a waste of time. Their emotions got in the way of everything, crying when they were upset and angry when they were on their time of the month... a waste of time and emotions.
But that wasn't it, he aways thought everything was a waste of time. Racing, his brother or dad always won anyways. School, he was failing again.
:Seth, I'm on my way... sorry I took so long. Daara wouldn't give me the stupid-:
" 'bout time. I've been bored out of my mind." Seth glanced to the gray floating Communication Unit. "You owe me."
:Yah, I know. But you know me, I just can't stand driving without blowing something up!:
Seth saw his brother coming forward, the Dune Hopper jumping unnessacrily into the air. Seth rolled his eyes and pulled his black scarf over his face, he knew what would happen. His brother would slide into the city, dust would go everywhere and everyone, including the girls, would look over and shierk when they figured out he was Elijah Mar.
Eli slammed on the breaks and slid into the city, the girls watched the car as it stopped infront of the store. A light haired boy got out of the car, he pulled off his odd shaped goggles and smiled.
"Hey there bro." Seth rolled his eyes and walked out, he hated it when he acted like that. Eli followed behind, kicking up dirt with his boots. His black vest and shorts caught the glances of the girls as they started whispering among themselves, a couple girls were giggling while the two walked by.
They walked around the shop into the back where Seth's car was, Eli stopped and took a deep breath in. He walked around the car and held back his laughter, the Sand Shark was bent in and the tires were blown.
"What did you do?"
"Shut up." Seth growled. "I wasn't focusing on my surrondings and a Stinger caught me from the side." Eli bent down and touched the bent in sides.
"Damn. Dad is gonna be mad, you destoried his tires and his frame." Eli walked back over to his brother and put his arms around his shoulders. "Come on, you can get in my car." Seth rolled his eyes.
"You're crazy, I'll die with you driving me." Eli gasped.
"Are you accussing me of driving badly?" Seth nodded, Eli motioned with his tumb back to the "You were saying?
"Think 'bout it. Dad's gonna be pissed when he sees both, the Dune Hopper and the Sand Shark destoried." Eli shrugged.
"Lets just ask Klevier to fix 'em." Seth bit his lip.
"Fine, but he'll make us pay."
A boy with brown hair walked down the hall, with his nose in a book he wasn't noticing anything around him. His boots made a clicking sound as he walked down the hallway towards his room, he wore all black with his red fingerless gloves. His mind was stuck in the book of a different world, he always bumped into things when he did this but when you have the highest IQ in Haven it's a good you bump your head a couple of times.
He just got to the best part when he was grabbed and yanked into a black closet, he was thrown into the back of the closet. He opened his mouth to say something but it was covered by a gloved hand.
When the hand was pulled away from his mouth, he opened his mouth to say something when a flash light was turned on. A red haired girl smirked at him, he glanced down to her feet to see she was wearing his boots. She also wore a black shirt with studs and her pistol hanging from her belt, he reached out and pulled up her white tank top. He glared and was about to start screaming, when she shoved an apple in his mouth. She held out a couple pistols to him, her gloves hands covered in dust and spit from the boy.
"Kahen, what in Precusor names are you planning?" Kahen laughed and planted her hands on her hips.
"What do you think Jahen? We're going to Spargus to see Elijah and Seth." Jahen rolled his eyes.
"We're grounded." Kahen laughed at her brother.
"No. You're grounded, for blowing up the sciene wing of the school! I'm-"
"Going to be, when they figure out you kidnapped me." Kahen loaded her pistol.
"Think of it as a friendly visit to Spargus, you're good deed for today. Hey it might even get you some brownie points!" Jahen sighed.
"I don't have a choice in this, do I?" Kahen laughed.
"Of course you do, your first choice is to come along without a fuss. Your second choice is to refuse and I, Kahen, pulling you down the hallway, right down the elevator, and out the door and go on our way to Spargus!" Jahen sighed, there was no way of getting out of this.
"Fine. I'll come along, lets go." Jahen opened the door and rushed out, six grauds stood outside the door tapping their feet at the teens. Kahen stepped behind Jahen as the grauds glanced at their belts, Jahen put his pistol behind his back.
"What were you two planning?" Kahen came out and pointed to her brother, Jahen's face going pale as she danced up to the grauds.
"He made me! I need a hug!" She shouted hugging one of the grauds, before she bought her knee up into his groin. The graud fell and she pulled the guns off her belt and fired them at the celing, which sent dust everywhere. She dodged a punch and ran down the hallway, Jahen chased after her as she darted about the many hallways.
"Damn it Kahen, now I'll be more grounded!" She laughed at her brother, she ran down a flight of stairs with him on her heels. Red flashing lights were going off in the stairs and in the hallways, she turned to him and smiled.
"Come on Jahen!" She said grabbing his arm, she ran to the closet and window. "Where's the adverturer in you?" She shouted before jumping out the window, Jahen grumbled knowing he had to follow. Jumping out the window after her he saw her free falling towards the city, she pulled a cord and a white glider came on her back. Jahen grabbed her feet before they floated the ground of Hevan, people gasping the sudden sight of the twins.
"Hello." Jahen whispered, he leaned to his sister and poked her side. "Now what?"
"Now we-"
"Hold it right there! Jahen and Kahen Praxis report back to the palace, right now!"
"We run! Come on!" Kahen shouted grabbing Jahen's hand and rushing towards the Hellcat about to leave for Spargus.
The Dune Hopper slid into Spargus, Seth didn't waste a second and jumped out of the car and ran towards the city. Eli ran after him and didn't even bother parking the Dune Hopper, he ran through the doors and bumped into Seth who was standing dumbfounded infront of a tall black man. He glanced into the closing doors of the garage, he pushed back his red cape and smiled down at the twins.
"Hey Uncle Sig!" Eli smiled, Sig smirked down to them.
"Where's the Sand Shark?" Seth and Eli laughed nervously.
"What if we told you it was back in the Forgotten City?" The metal head clothed man's smirk faded into a frown, he crossed his arms over his chest and glared down at them.
"Why did you leave it in Forgotten City? Did something happen to it?"
"Nah," Seth said crossing his arms back to the black man. "Just a minor problem." Eli snorted as Seth walked past him, confidents blinding everyone in a mile range. Eli laughed nevrously and inched past his uncle, when he was passed him Eli raced after his twin that was half way to the house.
"Seth!" Eli shouted.
"What?" Seth hissed.
"Nothing, but we should've told him about the Sand Shark." Seth shrugged.
"He'll figure it out." He glanced around. "Now what? I don't want to go inside and face Daddy, and I don't want to visit pappa green either." Eli laughed.
"Well, Kahen-"
"Hey!" The twins turned to see a fat man in a diaper walk over to them, he carried a staff with a stone at the top. He pointed at both of them with the staff and poked Seth with the stone. "I have to fix Jak's car, and since he doesn't work for me anymore and you two do; I have somethin' for ya to do." Eli and Seth both sighed.
"What do you want Kleiver?"
"I'm glad ya caught on fast," Kleiver stepped up to Seth. "Go out and clear the path way for the Kras City Champions that are coming for the races in the Dusty Death Match." Kleiver slapped the back of Seth's head. "And don't ruin any of my cars while your out there either or I'll snap your neck, eh?"
"Great." Eli sighed. "Clear out all the Metal Heads and junk?"
"Do that and I'll fix your dad's car without him even noticing," Kleiver chuckled. "Ya better get on top of it, your dad 'ell be back soon."
"So, when people ask," Jahen said holding his arm up to protect his face from the harsh winds of the Wasteland. "Who was the main man in this crime of you escaping your grounding and leaving for Spargus, I say?" Kahen giggled as she skipped down the platform, her boots clanking off the tough metal. She turned and smiled.
"You say, I was involed because I'm the only man in this crime!" Jahen opened his mouth but closed it when he realized what she said, he was the only man in this crime because she was a girl. He sighed and followed behind her thoughtfully, she went around the cornor and tapped on the Gates. It was a second later they opened and Kahen ran into the garage, she ran to the Dust Demon that was sitting in the cornor; she hugged the frame. "Hello old friend."
"Hello Kahen," She turned to see a red faced Seth standing behind her, he crossed his arms and glared at her. His eyes looking past her then at her, she started to bounce in one spot.
"Hey there Spikey!"
"Don't call me Spikey," He hissed, he pushed past her. "Move I'm going on a mission." Kahen pouted.
"Spikey, you can't go me and Jahen just risked our necks-"
"Literally!" Jahen shouted walking up to the Dust Demon with Eli beside him, Eli got into the Dune Hopper and smiled.
"We can bring them along, I'm pretty sure Kahen can drive much better then you can." Seth glared at him.
"Don't push it."
