Chapter 1: Dream

The boy walked along the seemingly endless road that stretched far into the hills.

"Just a...little more..."

Alfred was a teenager, around 19 years old. His sandy blond hair, as well as the strand of hair sticking up that he called Nantucket, blew wildly in the wind, yet his sky blue eyes glittered with the joy in fighting against it to get to the top of the hill. He moved one foot, then the other, then the first one again, day after day for the past ten days. Yeah, that might seem hard for some people, but he's a hero! Heroes can travel for as long as they want and never get tired! Yeah! Ahahaha...Ha...haaaa......

The minute he reached the top of the hill, he passed out and fell into a dreamless sleep.

~o-O-o~

He woke up to the soft nuzzling of a fur. Alfred opened his eyes and looked at the polar bear staring at him. Hm, polar bears...He was pretty sure they didn't have those in Spain... He remembered his brother had a polar bear. Maybe it had escaped?

"Or I could be standing right here."

"Hm, did you hear something Mr. Polar Bear?"

"Who?"

"I thought so." Still, Alfred swore he knew his brother was somewhere nearby...

Then, he stared at the crowd of sheep around him. When the hell did they get there?

He took out a comic book and used one of the sheep that were laying down. Probably the best pillow ever. The wool was fluffy and the soft breathing left the boy at ease and relaxed.

Too relaxed. Alfred fell asleep again. This time, though, it wasn't so dreamless.

Alfred sat on the hill, looking out at the wide valley. It was so peaceful today. It made him want to go on an epically exciting adventure! But before he could do anything, he felt someone tap his shoulder. He turned around to see a young boy with a sailor suit smiling at him.

"Hey, kid, what're you doing out here?"

The boy shook his head and pulled at Alfred's hand.

"What is it?"

The boy pointed down to the valley.

"Sure, I guess..."

Alfred let himself be dragged down into the valley, but as they ran down the hill, the scenery started to change and became more desert-like.

"Whoa...What's going on?"

Suddenly, the boy stopped, and he almost tripped over him. The boy pointed, let go of Alfred's hand, and ran.

Alfred dusted off his pants. He then looked towards the direction the boy had ran and gasped.

The Egyptian pyramids stood in all their glory: beautiful and enormous.

He stared in awe as he began walking towards them.

"Hey you!"

Alfred looked towards the source of the unfamiliar voice and saw the boy.

"You know, if you come to these pyramids, you'll find a treasure beyond your wildest dreams."

He stared at the boy. Did he just say what he thought he said?

"Hey, kid. Kid!"

The boy just kept smiling and wouldn't answer. Then, he smirked knowingly.

"I'll show you where the treasure is if you want." The boy started to fade.

"Hey!" Everything faded and went black.

Alfred sat up sweating and gasping. What the hell was that dream?! It seemed so real! He suddenly realized it was too hot and went over towards the only tree on the hill for shade.

Great. It was way too hot right now to move. He'd probably have to stay there until nighttime.

He glanced at the tree and took out his pocket knife. He flipped it open and started carving, "Alfred the hero was here!"

"There that should do it!" He admired his work for a few minutes and then fell asleep once again. It was the same dream. When he woke up, he decided he couldn't stay there any longer.

"Come on everyone! We're leaving!" Every sheep simultaneously lifted its head and began to follow.

"I'll take care of that treasure later. For now," he said happily and almost seductively, "I've got a lady to see."

Alfred stared walking down the opposite side of the hill he had come, followed by his pack of stalker sheep, a strange polar bear, and his invisible brother who sighed, but followed anyway.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

It's still kinda short...But this story's gonna be like that...Yeah, there's probably gonna be some long ones in there...

Yeah, I know I said he was gonna be 15 or 16, but I got annoyed with all the contradictions that were going on so I just decided to drop that part =3=

Ummm...Yeah...I'm updating this because maybe more people will read it if I post more chapters? Or maybe people are just angry for not updating anything else...*emo corner*

And no one's reviewed yet.... Cookiesxcream said Liechtenstein, but I was going to use her for something else within the next two chapters...He still likes Liechtenstein, though...She's just not the girl he ends up in love with...

Bwahaha! I started writing the part where Grandpa Rome comes in today XD It was FANTASTIC. Yeah...So I gotta go try writing more of everything else to update...I stayed home today which is probably the only reason why I got this posted =3=

PLEASE REVIEW AND PICK SOMEONE ALREADY. The list of girls is in the prologue at the end.
