A sudden bump on the train shook Travis awake. He gripped the train seat handle to keep from falling out. He was gasping for breath as he tries to recover from the shake. As he does this, he thought about what happened last night. He was in a strange place that resembles a prison cell, twin attendants, a weird man with a long nose, some contract.
"I should stop watching scary movies before I go to bed. Now I'm dreaming crazy stuff." He said as he gets up out of his seat. He checked his watch to see that it was 10 in the morning. "Whoa, that dream really had me in it." Travis said out of disbelief as he headed to the dining cart to get himself something to eat.
(4 hours later)
Time passed as he sits in his seat, waiting for his destination to arrive. "Attention all passengers, we'll be reaching Michigan city train station in 15 minutes. Passengers heading to Michigan, please prepare for departure." The announcer said throughout the train. With that, he gets up out of his seat and grab his luggage. After 15 minutes like it said, the train stop and the doors opened. He steps out of the train and onto the platform. "Well here goes. First day in a new city." Travis said to himself as he walks though the crowds to the train station entrance.
Afternoon: April 4th.
He steps outside looking around the city for anything that'll tell him they're people who are waiting on him. "Hey, over here." A voice spoke out loud as he turns to see two people walking to him.
"You must me Travis Wickerson. Wow, you're more handsome than in the photo." The man said. "I'm James Sohiane. Nice to meet you." He extends a hand to Travis, which he shakes it. "Nice to meet you." He said. "Likewise. This is my wife Serita." she smiles as he introduces her. "Nice to meet you." Serita said.
James start to speak more, "You probably heard this, but we're your parent's friends. We knew each other since high school." James explained. "We're sorry about the whole business trip situation, but I'm sure you're going to enjoy it here." Serita told him with a smile.
Travis just sighs and said. "I hope so." "Sure you will. Well, let's talk more in the car. We'll show you the popular places in Michigan as we head back to the cafe shop." James said as he walked towards their car. Travis takes a moment to look around some more, then he headed towards the family's car.
As they drive through the city, James drive by some key places in the city. One is the Jeakeu Academy, the school Travis will be attending. Next is a Antique Shop,(Will act as the weapons shop.) Pharmaceutical(medicine shop.) and various other shops(accessories of different kinds.)
Late Night: April 4th.
The whole trip was long and exhausting as it was nightfall by the time they headed towards the cafe shop. "And here we are, Sohiane's Cafe." James said as he, Serita steps out of the car and take a moment to stretch their bodies before entering the shop.
He looks to see the counters and seats for customers to use, a refrigerator with lots of drinks inside other than coffee drinks and stairs leading upwards.
"You see Travis, not only is this building a coffee shop, we also have bedrooms here as well. We prepared your room on the right side." Serita explained things to him.
"Thank you." Travis told them, but then places his head to his forehead as it was hurting. It passed quickly thankfully. "Are you okay?" Serita ask him. "Yeah, probably just been a long day. I must be pretty tired." Travis said to them.
"I'll say, I'm pretty beat myself." James said as he yawns. "We should all get some sleep. You especially since your first day of school is tomorrow." Travis nods and headed upstairs alongside the others.
He enters the room to see that there's a bed for him, a dresser and tv and some shelves for him. He sets his stuff down, deciding to wait until after school to decorate the room. He changes into his pajamas and climb into bed to sleep.
