Code: Alpha Wolf

Chapter 1: The Nightmare

It was dark…completely dark. There was not even a slimmer of light.

"Gaawwrrr…let me out!" A voice cried from the darkness.

"Patience…your time will come, my friend. Soon enough the child will awaken, and you will be free upon your way," exclaimed a soothing voice.

There was still some growling noise from the creature and it began to pound itself against a force field, which seems to act like its cage.

"How soon? How much longer…," questioned the creature.

"Very soon, my friend…very soon. He will awaken, you'll see." explained the calming voice.

"Excellent…" growled the creature, which had a wide smirk on his face.

BAM!

I woke up with a jolt from that vision.

"That dream…again…" I huffed.

I cannot really explain what the meaning of this dream is, but I have a feeling that something disastrous was going to happen. I looked at my alarm clock and it was only 5:30. I still had 3 more hours until breakfast, so I decided to let that matter drop and went back to sleep.

"It's only a dream…only a dream."

This was what I kept telling myself as I drifted back to sleep.

Morning, 8:30

The night went swiftly by as the morning sun rose. The lights began to stream into the dorm room through the window. Then, I began to stir. It was time to get up if my roommate and I want breakfast in the cafeteria.

"Hey, Odd! Get up! You don't want to miss breakfast now, do you?" I said.

"Urg…10 more minutes, mom!" groaned Odd.

I smacked Odd really hard with the pillow.

"Well, Odd darling. If it's going to be this way, then you can starve until lunch. But you're bound to get up sometime soon!" I shouted.

"Ugh…geez, Ulrich. Keep your cool." exclaimed Odd.

Leaving Odd to prepare himself, I left the room to check on my friend, Jeremie. I wouldn't blame him if he stayed up all night trying to find a way to destroy XANA. I mean…we finally got William back. After a long time battling with XANA to retrieve William, it was nice to have the guy back on our side again. Except for the fact that he had managed to win HER affections… 'Urgh! Why am I thinking about that at this time of day?'

Finally, I got to Jeremie's dorm and knocked on the door.

"Come on in. It's unlock." said Jeremie.

"Hey, Einstein. What's the project now?" I asked as I walked into his room.

"I think I found a way to destroy XANA once and for all." explained Jeremie.

"That's great!" I exclaimed.

"And that's not the half of it!" said Jeremie with great enthusiasm.

"What's that?" I inquired.

"Tell the others to meet me at the factory after school. I'll explain everything then." ordered Jeremie.
