I actually was able to get the prologue written for this new installment much earlier than I thought so I figured; eh why not?
This story is no longer going to follow the series as starting with Crash Twinsanity I don't consider them Crash games.
Other than that I don't have much else to say expect enjoy I think you all will.
Lastly for the Prologue I recommend listening to The Day Seattle Died by Cold
Crash Bandicoot and any other related characters or not mine, they belong to whoever has a clue at this point. Any OC's in this story are in fact mine.
So let's start
Prologue
3 years later
Three long and cold years seemed to dwindle on for Crash Bandicoot.
While everything around him seemed to be the same as it always had been, the now 16 year old marsupial certainly wasn't.
After he defeated his arch nemesis Dr. Neo Cortex for the 4th time, he had seriously Jan before he had escaped unscathed.
While Jan did survive, she decided that it was probably the best thing to leave Crash so she could spare him anymore emotional pain; as she realized that as long as she hung around with Crash, Cortex would still target her.
Although Jan thought that was the best thing, Crash didn't seem to think so; through those three years he completely closed himself off. He stopped talking to a good number of people that he used to know and started hanging with people that he originally never would have thought about.
He was angry and depressed all the time and was lucky if he didn't get into a fight once a month. It was almost safe to say that Crash was no longer the same naïve but kind young boy that had washed up on the shores of N. Sanity beach all those years ago; and the ironic thing about that was, he didn't care.
He was living in world where he couldn't even be who he was; so why bend to the laws of society when he got nothing in return?
The door to the apartment slammed shut when one of the only original friends he had left, Holly, came home from her evening of working at the rock bar.
"Crash! You're still up?!" She asked, rather shocked.
"Why do you care?!" Crash demanded.
"Crash you have school tomorrow; you can't keep staying up like! You need a good night's sleep! You haven't had one of those in 3 years!" Holly cried.
"Why would I want to close my eyes just to relive the nightmares again!" Crash snarled.
"Crash! You're a completely different person; and we're worried about you!"
"Whose worried about me!"
"Me, Sean, our dad, and Aku Aku! You're slipping away, and we don't know what to do!"
"What can be done?! I live in a world where I can't even be myself! I'm a fucking outcast and I've come to terms with that; so why can't you?" Crash demanded, his eyes glassy.
Holly's face softened.
"Crash this isn't who you are; the Crash Bandicoot we knew and loved never talked like this. He never gave up, he never let society bring him down, he stood up for those who couldn't stand up for themselves. That was the Crash Bandicoot we knew; not this cold hard shell that you have become. Please Crash, I don't old you to go away."
Crash looked at her with cold sad eyes.
"I'm sorry Holly, but I do."
The bandicoot walked to the door and grabbed his coat.
"I'm going for walk." He said, quietly.
"Fine." She said, not looking at him.
Crash walked down the stairs.
What was the point of changing when the world around him didn't want to change either?
