Chapter:1
N.D.E.
The night came quickly after we got back and I was tired. After a few rounds of Call of Duty MW2 with Kate,I was off to bed. "Good night Ben." she called from the tv room. "Good night." I said. 5'8" and brown hair. I've got bangs a little past half my forehead. Although there normally past my eyes.
Speaking of eyes, I've got glasses; nearsightedness sucks. I Wear them as far back on my nose as they can go.(Which is a very good excuse to give people the finger.) My hair is long but not to long. From my bangs (Which are all roughly the same length.) my hair tapers back until a little past half way down the back of my neck. My sister is shorter than I am, being roughly 5'5". She's got brown hair like mine with a thick bond streak in front, down the left side. She looks good most of the time. By sometime around 10:30 I had finished all the stuff
I do before bed. I pulled myself up the last few steps up to my room.(Its on the third floor)I got in bed and fell asleep fast. "Thank god its Friday." I murmured under my breath as I fell asleep. What felt like a second to me but was a few hours in reality; a loud noise awoke me. Booom! I sharply inhaled in shock and said breathily "Holy shit." "What the fuck is Quantico doing testing at three AM!" I moaned. Booooom! "FUCK!" I yelled as that explosion was much closer than the last. The most recent explosion jolted me to my senses. "What the hell is going on?" Then the sparse crackle of semi-automatic gunfire rang out. Shit! Its like WWIII out there! I opened my window and looked as far as I could. I couldn't see so I craned my neck as far as it would go, still nothing.
Without thinking I ran down stairs to see moms door hanging open. I continued down and before I knew it, I was outside. It was very dark, so I couldn't see very well. After a moment of looking around and wondering what the hell I was doing, I encountered Mom. "What the fuck are you doing? Get back inside!" "Mom I think the explosions are coming from that way." I pointed roughly to the north east. "Ok. Go inside!" She said running to the car. I finally came to my scenes and turned to go inside. I waited for Mom to leave and I looked to the place where the explosions had really came from. Starting as a low rumble something illuminated the roof and cast a shadow. It was a huge blue-burning ball of fire. As it drew closer time slowed. My instinct kicked in violently. HIT THE DECK! I did. Hard... BOOOOOOOOMMMMM! The heat was intense. I blacked out. Nothing happened in my head. It was all dark. I still don't know how long I was out for but it felt like hours to me.
As soon as I was awake I did not feel good. My scenes crawled back to me. First, was sight. My eyelids felt like they had several tons attached. I managed to hold them open briefly but it didn't do much good, my vision was so blurred I hardly could barely make out shapes. I tried again. It was somewhat clearer. I saw the ground in front and then the porch. Then feeling came back,
witch I wasn't to happy about. All I got from that since was pain in some places and numbness in most others. But warmth stood out amongst the mixed feelings. My feet were hot and legs were warm.
Hearing was last, and least. All that I heard for a good minuet was shrill ringing. Still in pain I embraced unconsciousness again. Another few hours in the back of my mind passed. I awoke again. I forced my eyes open. I checked to be sure that I wasn't dead, and in one piece. Come on toes, Wiggle!I commanded myself. I slowly felt them move. "Ok good." I said with a sigh of relief. Alright fingers, your turn. I commanded them to work. The did so faster this time. "Thank god-for that." I said very tired. "Ok time to- ughh. Get up." I murmured. It was fairly difficult, and hardly worked. Once on my knees I looked around behind me. I saw a shallow (Less than an inch deep) and nearly circular hole less than thirty feet behind me. Oh I had been much closer, the blast would've killed me. "thank god for that too." I said scared awake by the cold realization. Turning back around I remembered that the car was gone. Ok good that buys me time. I thought. Before I started off for the woods where I herd the sounds, I realized my glasses were missing. "Oh crap!" I said panicked. I looked around for them. "Oh, thank god!" I had found them. I put them on and inspected them. "Good no damage." It had taken me so long to notice because it was barely light outside. I started off towards the woods, because, apparently, what I regained in motor control I lost in any care for my safety. At first I was hobbling along like a zombie. After a moment of limbering up I found myself at a full
run. As I neared the woods I slowed myself. I ducked under logs and hoped the small stream. I slowly made my way through the woods.
"Woah." I hardly breathed. A dragon. I squinted hard trying to see what the heck it was, without getting to close. I opened my eyes as much as I could (More than I thought possible) to suck up an much moon light as possible to mayby see any better. Maybe if I open my eyes wide enough , I'll evolve into a higher fucking species. I thought. I had no other choice but to get closer if I wanted to pursue this any further. And I did. So I very (and I stress that word) slowly (that one too) inched my way closer. A gap in the clouds (I assume) opened enough to illuminate its face for a moment. "Oh god." I was on guard but it still surprised me. "So, a Night Fury."I whispered. I thought it was either dead, knocked out, or asleep. Not sure which one it was, I found a good place out of site and a rock. I threw it at the dragon. It did not stir. I tried again. Still no movement. Still unsure about its state of awareness I approached slowly. I saw its slow breathing, and figured that it was unconscious. How unconscious was the question. I carfully lowered my ear to where its lungs were. Very shallow. I thought. Next I listened to the heart beat. Slow but steady."Wow, your out cold, like -10° Celsius cold. Jeez, what happe-Oh crap."
I don't know how I had missed it before but, there was a small hole in the side of it's underside, bleeding a dark dark red liquid slowly into a pool below."Jesus." I said as I moved over to the open wound. "This wont heal without aid. *sigh* You-"I said as I stretched the scales out somewhat."-are in some deep ass doo doo." I soaked some of the blood with my handkerchief. I looked into the bullet shaped hole for a shot. A small crumpled piece of copper suddenly fell out of It's side. "Oh, well that simplifies things." I said before I ran off to the house.
And so chapter 1: N.D.E. Is done
P.S Did you figure out what N.D.E. means?
