My Saving Grace

Chapter 4: A New Beginning

Jacob walked through the front doors, quite literally, (No glass anymore, remember?) and started his climb up to the roof of the building. (23 stories of stairs later) "God Damn, I hate stairs!" As he opened the door to the roof, his mind could not believe what he saw. It was indeed an egg and even more amazing was the fact that there was not a single crack in it.

Whether or not he knew it, something or someone out there was giving him a choice. A chance to change his destiny. What Jacob did next even stunned him, he got down on his knees and looked up into the sky and whispered "Thank You."

As he went to grab the egg, something started to shine very brightly inside his coat pocket. Jacob reached into his coat and pulled out what was shining. The light started to dim and what used to be his old digital camera was a strange looking device with what looked like a card reading slot on one side a small screen in the center.

Currently the thing was beeping like crazy and pointing towards the egg in front of him. "What in the world is going on?" He picked up the egg and this time the egg began to glow bright white light. (Pardon the small tongue twister) Jacob almost dropped the egg out of fright but didn't. Then it began to crack and soon enough there wasn't any egg left. In its place was a little ball of fluff and fur with a tail and fox-like ears.

At this moment Jacob was having one of those what the fuck moments. "Hi, my name is Viximon, nice to meet you!" Right then and there Jacob fainted from the shock of all the events that had happened that night. "What, did I say something wrong? Huh, he's asleep. Oh well," said Viximon. Viximon went up next to her new tamer, snuggled up to him and went to sleep.
