The bridge was facing a new planet that was an all too common sight for the brown skinned man in the captain seat. He look down toward the armrest of his chair and place his hand firmly down on it. Instantly, a blue-tinned holographic projection screen came in front of the man. Graphs and charts filled the screen, but at this moment, he was only interested in one part of it. As if reading his mind, the screen zoom to the part most desired by him. His coca colored eyes quickly scanning the information needed. It was a stack of graphs all by each other. All but one had similar readouts. That one was so significantly different to the rest that the man reasoned that this could only mean one thing: this universe was in a completely different multiverse. This is what he has been waiting on. It's time for him to pick a suitble place to beam in to learn about this new strange world.
"Just another day of school" Jeremy said as he woke up at 6. "It's my senior year. Pretty soon, I'm going to miss it so I better try to enjoy it! At least this is the last day before Christmas break." he mumbled under his breath as he got through his usually morning routine and put his cell phone in his pocket. "Jeremy, take out the trash!" his older brother, Leon, shouted from his bathroom. He was visiting and was going to take Jeremy and Kaitlin away for a little small vacation before returning on Christmas day. Jeremy, not being too much of a fighter (physically, anyway), gave no qualms about taking out stinking trash, never once realize that that barked order will set off a chain of events that will forever change his life and that of his family, namly his brother and sister.
Dragging the heavy trash bag from its resting place, Jeremy saw a brown skinned man dressed in white clothes just outside of his driveway staring at the nearby forest opposing the house. Jeremy, always the cautious one, eyed the man suspiciously as made his way to the outside trash bin. The man, noticing his presence turned toward Jeremy. He was about 6 feet tall with brown eyes to match his brown skin. His facial hair, a beard, reach all around his chin to connect to his sideburns on both sides of his face. Jeremy feel as if he was looking at someone he knew in a strange way. It was until the man walked up to him that he realized just who he was.
"Hi! My name is Asuma. What's yours?" the man said, reaching his hand out, smiling. Jeremy was stunned. Asuma?! Like in Naruto? It couldn't be!? But this man looks just like him. Even his voice was the same! Shaking himself out of a thinking coma, Jeremy grabbed this man's, this Asuma's hand with his free hand and shook it. His hand was strong and firm, but also unusual in a way he couldn't identify. "Hello... My name is Jeremy." 'Asuma', as mysterious man called himself, seems to smile even harder as Jeremy feel a strange energy, vibrate up his arm and through his body all the while strange thoughts and scenes played out in his mind .
This continued for a moment until Jeremy started to reduce his grip. Asuma, catching the message, released his hand. "Sorry!" he said as he scratched the back of his hand with his right hand. Jeremy noticed that he even had bracelets on his arms, just like his Naruto counterpart. Somehow, deep down, Jeremy knew that this was somebody special, regardless on how he look or act.
"Excuse me a moment" Jeremy said, suddenly remembering the trash in his left hand. "Oh! Am I in your way?' He responded while moving out of the way. 'Let me help you with that.' he said while reaching for the top of the bin, lifting it so that Jeremy can put the trash in. "Thanks." Jeremy replied as Asuma put the top back down. Jeremy, thinking this is way too suspicious a chance not to jump on it, brupped out a question. "Who the hell are you?" He reached to place his hands over his mouth after it was too late. Asuma, initially shocked at such an outburst, smile and said, "I can show you fast than I can tell you." As he said that, he grabbed Jeremy hand faster than any human Jeremy ever seen but held it with a soft grip. Before he could protest, he was gone in a flash of light.
Next thing Jeremy knew was that he was looking out of a window. Jeremy grasped. The most shocking thing that Jeremy saw out that window was... everything he ever known! It was the Earth from orbit! After a few moments of planet gawking, someone spoke. "That's your world. Your Earth." Jeremy turned see Asmua on a throne. No, more like a captain's seat. "Where the HELL am I!?" Jeremy screamed. Asuma said, "Calm down, this isn't you. Just look around." Jeremy, still putting up the front of being angry looked around the room. It was a gray colored room, with a couple of seats around the captain's seat and a glass screen behind where Asuma sat. In fact, Jeremy thought, this ship is not unlike the Daedalus in Stargate Atlantis! Jeremy, completely in shock and awe, had a confused look his face and Asmua saw it. "Yes, this is the real Daedalus. Or ONE of the real Daedalus." Just as Jeremy's quick mind starts to come up with a solution, Asuma shot it down. "And no, this is not a lucid dream. You haven't had a lucid dream in a while now. So it's safe to this isn't one." Jeremy said with the largest eyes ever, "What is going on?" Asuma got up and while point to the chair he just got up from, "You better take a seat." Jeremy, scared out of his mind, took the seat. "Ok. I'm begin with this crazy story and HOPE you believe me" said Asuma while making hand gestures. "Will you let me?" Jeremy responded "I'm going to be late for school, aren't I?" Asuma smiled and nodded his head agreeing with him. Jeremy sigh and said begin.
