( I decided to do a fic of the whole pilot episode in Jeffrey's POV.)
Chapter 1
"FATHER!" I scream as I am falling down. I wake up suddenly and realize it was just a dream. I am tired and I rub my face with my hands. I turn on the lamp that is beside me and look down to see the framed photo on my lap as my dog Ralph whines, I think he misses my parents too.
In the framed photo are my parents and I and we are smiling. "Why did you have to die?" I get up and set the framed photo back on the bookshelf where my collection of books are neatly on, but I take it off again to look at the photo and I try to fight the tears that want to come. "No I won't cry." I set the framed photo back on the shelf when I hear my aunt and uncle fighting in the other room.
They are fighting about me again, it is always about me, and how much they resent having to be saddled with a kid and ruining their lifestyle as my uncle put it angrily.
My dog Ralph whines again, I think he doesn't like the arguing either and I tell him, "Can it Ralph." It is the same argument and I walk to the door and open it slowly to watch them argue.
This time it is about a trip to Cancun that they plan on taking and of course I am in the way again. "I just don't want him to ruin our trip to Cancun." My uncle shouts at my aunt. "Why did Bill and Kathy have to die?" My aunt annoyed that she had to take me in.
Finally I close the door quietly. "Do you think I like living with you both?" I ask myself as I turn around and try to not let what they are arguing about upset me again.
I stand there looking out the window on the high rise I'm now living at, when I hear a whistling sound and then a thud, the sound is coming from out on the ledge on the other side of the window and I hear what sounds like someone grunting. I do not know what to do. "How can someone be out on a ledge when we are so high, it's impossible."
I walk towards the window slowly, but then I stop confused, when a hand breaks with what looks like a book. My dog Ralph starts barking at it. "Who could that be?" I stand there frightened as my dog Ralph, who is my protector and only friend there continues to bark.
Finally I see someone, it looks like it's really windy, because who ever it is, the person is having trouble and is struggling very hard to climb in. He uses the book so that he is not cut on glass.
I am frozen in place as Ralph continues to bark. "Smoking bats breath, could have killed me!" "When did they start building them this high?" The man dressed what looked like a pirate asks me, I do not answer him, and I am just staring at him. "Who is this strange man?" The man then shouts at me, "This isn't 1492." "Well duh, I could of told him that."
The man walks forward and asks me, "Where's Columbus, kid?" "Where I am I?"Of course I do not answer him and Ralph is still barking at him and then finally lunges at him attacking him, he grabs the black book that the man is holding and the man is trying to fight him off. "Ralph!" I shout as I try to pull him off the strange man. "He's got my book!" "Ralph let go!" "Keep your lousy fangs off of me." "Don't you see me trying to get him off of you?"
I am trying really hard to get Ralph off the man, but Ralph is big and strong and once he gets protective of me, it's hard to get him to calm down or let go of whatever he gets a hold in his teeth. "Ralph, come on Ralph, give it up, Let go!" I shout at him as I have a hold of his collar now, but then I feel something hit me.
I feel myself falling backwards and frail my arms as I realize I had fallen out of the window. "AHH HELP!" I scream I feel myself falling. "I'm gonna get splattered on the pavement down below."
I close my eyes as I wait for impact on the ground below me, but I feel this arm around me and I open my eyes and realize that there are colors all around and silence and I'm going through this tunnel. "What is all of these colors and I am I not dead?" "What is going on, I feel like I'm flying."
I close my eyes again, because I start to get a little dizzy and wait for it to end.
