Okay, since I have a migraine and I'm going 1 wpm due to a headache, I thought I'd start rewriting chapters from New Warrior. So here's the rewritten Chapter 1.
________________________________________________________________________
??? POV
A small ray of light made its way through the crack in the curtains. The beam came to rest on the eye of what some would consider a child, but I considered myself a teen, no more, no less.
My arms went behind my head to grasp my pillow; I placed it in front of my face, groaning lightly.
As if to make matters worse, the alarm clock next to me started its redundant beeping. Day after day I had to put up with this. I needed something new for once.
My arm reached out and slammed down, striking open air, again, striking the table. I recoiled in pain before looking over to see the alarm clock, I just shoved it off its table, plug disconnecting, shutting its beeps off all at once.
I walked over to the dresser, grabbing at my preset clothes for the day. I slid the clothes over my body, not even caring anymore.
As I made my way down the hallway to the bathroom, I felt my body begin waking up.
As I entered the bathroom, I glanced at the mirror, my eyes connecting with the ones in the mirror. The eyes in the mirror had fear glimmering in them, from the looks of it, they knew something was gonna happen, and soon.
My eyes couldn't know what I didn't, could they?
I looked upwards slightly, taking in the golden brown hair. I made one last glance at the starburst hazel eyes before I started my daily routine.
I wet the bristles of my toothbrush, placed toothpaste on it, wet it again, and brushed my teeth, day after day… monotonous.
After cleaning the bristles off and rinsing my mouth I took the chance to wet down my hair with the running water.
As soon as I was decent I went down the stairs. Much to my surprise, there was no scent of cooking breakfast, no chatter between my parents.
I walked to the kitchen; the first thing catching my eye was a note on the fridge, then a bag with a variety of fruits on the table.
I grabbed the bag of fruit on the way to the note. I snatched it off the fridge in one quick swipe. The note read: 'Going out on another honeymoon with father. You know how to take care of yourself Nathan. Don't worry, we already did everything involving the school. You don't have school for the rest of the month.'
Nathan's POV
My school was incredibly laid back, if a student had no form of transportation to the school, they'd get days off.
It didn't really matter anyways; I was done with the required curriculum the school had laid out, not like I'd be falling behind.
I grabbed my backpack from next to the door, didn't have school related stuff, all of that was at school waiting for me. It had what would entertain me for the day. I placed the bag of fruits in it.
As I made my way out the door, the backdoor, I walked across our yard, to the woods behind.
The sunlight was strong, but it vanished as I became shrouded in the trees.
I brushed my hand against the bark of the various trees I passed.
The trees thinned out as I came to a clearing, the sunlight caressing me in the crisp chill of spring.
It was still there, the box I had found but two weeks ago. You'd think it'd have been found by now by its owner.
I withdrew a small wooden block, carved by me in the past two weeks. I had found a small flaw when I inspected the box, the charge would fade due to the imperfection, and this wooden block should prevent it.
I withdrew a screwdriver of sorts from my bag, I placed it in the small slit and pried it open.
The open slot was instantly visible, and I placed the block in it.
I yelped as I got electrical feedback. A bolt of electricity shot straight into the air. As I closed the box, another bolt came down and narrowly missed the box.
I jumped back in surprise, the black charred earth out of place in the serene meadow-like clearing.
I had found a way to charge this thing manually, one of its circuits was imperfect and couldn't charge itself all the time.
I took the last item I had in my arsenal for this, a small metallic pole with a red marking at one side, and a white marking at the other, a magnet.
I took the white marking and tapped the slit on the box, an electrical charge starting up. It looked like everything around me began to bend, and distort.
I felt nauseous as I began to get pulled towards something unknown to me. I was being pulled… up… to space?
The new feeling was becoming too much, pushing me above and beyond my limits. My consciousness slipped out from under me.
OOC
In a white burst of supernova heat, Nathan appeared on the metallic ground of a ship. His clothes were charred, destroyed, pieces of the cloth hung from his body.
5 figures instantly surrounded him. The vulpine spoke up first, "He's in dire need of medical attention. Someone get him to the Medical Bay. Slippy, get a pair of handcuffs and get them on him after he's in a stable condition."
The vixen grabbed the child, she was helped by the avian. The toad disappeared to who knows where. The only ones left were the vulpine and the hare.
"Fox, we have to alert General Pepper. He deserves to know about this."
"Your right Peppy, but we need to know if the kid will survive in the first place."

Okay, well this is chapter 1 finished. I hope you all enjoy it more than the original. I tried to keep a lot of the details the same.
