Chapter One: It begins
"Max! You have five minutes or I'm pulling the plug on that thing!" That's what Mom yelled down right before it happened…
"I get that calm down!" I yelled back up rolling my eyes with annoyance. He grasped his controller fiercely and pressed the cross button over the New Game command of the game… Final Fantasy Ten-Two. The beginning song started.
"What can I do for you." I sang along a little. Admittedly I was a tad embarrassed, but it's not like someone was watching right? This is when things started going downhill words were muted only the word, "You", would make it out of the speakers from the back of my television. The screen went blurry.
"What the hell?" I walked up to the screen now black and white static. This was my first mistake… I poked the screen in rage then with lightning speed I was there. Standing right in front of Paine and Rikku and I could hear the snarky remarks of Leblanc in the distance.
"Move." Snapped Paine angered as usual. This is when I realize I'm starting to get weird looks from the two. I'm still in my blue jeans and red American Eagle zip up sweatshirt and socks, but I was animated.
"Well um hi I'm Max umm this is a little strange, but there are going to be some goons coming after you, and I have nothing to defend myself with…So yeah…" I was only thinking about a weapon if I was supposed to make it in this world that is what I needed. "
We don't have time for this." Paine glared at me "Rikku." She said jerking her head upward and running off. Rikku ran off and looked back at me the entire time she ran away until turning the corner. I sat down and figured my situation was hopeless. That was when I noticed a glinting blue object he crawled on all fours toward it. It was a Blue Ring an item allowing the one wearing it to cast the black magic spell of Water.
"Thank god." I gasped to myself slipping the ring on my ring finger. I felt a rush go through me I felt hydrated and powerful. I gasped as the rush went through my body. I wasn't scared now well yes I was, but I ran around the corner after the two girls I had only seen in video games. There were two goons there waiting for me the moment I rounded the corner. "Water!" I yelled stretching my arms out and spreading my fingers outward, and sure enough the two goons were engulfed in a riptide of water.
I heard the ugly "Ah!" the goons let out as they're bodies disappeared. I ran on in my socks in pursuit of the girls. "Wait up!" I yelled and sprinted after them feeling the hard stone walk below my feet. "First thing to do get some shoes…" I said and sprinted on rounding yet another corner.
