The darkness had enveloped the sky…mostly storm clouds full of treacherous thunder and lightning bolts. The crickets now weren't chirping like they were an hour ago before the sky was enveloped. Slowly, raindrops began to fall down upon the brown grass-stained earth. Animals began running to their homes, and children to theirs.
However, one 18-year old was still standing outside in the rain, looking upon the sky in excitement and amazement. He was anxious for the nighttime to arrive because his 3 best friends were expected to arrive and they'd all begin their lives anew.
"Jason! Get your ass in here! Why in the world are you standing out in the rain!?" A voice could be heard behind him.
"All right dad…I'm just too anxious for Scott, Alex, and Jeff to arrive…I'm very excited. I've never met them person-to-person. I can't wait!" Jason told his dad, walking into the house, dripping wet from the rain.
"Geez…you're drenched…go get a change of clothes on!" Jason's dad bellowed to him, laughing a bit.
"Yeah…yeah, I know…I'm going to take a shower anyway…I want to be at my best when they arrive later." Jason said, heading towards the bathroom. He opened the door and headed in, and turned on the shower.
"Geez…soaking wet clothes…I didn't mean to stand out in the rain like I did…" He said, tossing off his clothes into a wet pile on the floor. "I guess I don't wanna get sick over something as silly as a little rain…"
Jason hopped into the shower and let the warm water trickle down over his hair, shoulders, and body. He looked up at the ceiling, thinking about how he'd want to be seen when the 3 of them arrived. "Should I stand outside and wait? No…it's raining out. Maybe I could make them a meal? I can't…not enough time to do so. I KNOW! I'll just act calm and cool like they're not there, and I'll play Final Fantasy 6…Scott loves that game! It'll be great!"
Jason cleaned himself off and stepped out of the shower, drying off with a towel. After he finished dressing and beautifying himself, he headed for his bedroom and TV. "Well then, where's the game…AHA! Here it is!" He said, putting it into the Playstation and turning it on. "I think I'll start a new game. That way, I can show off my talent a bit to them." He laughed a bit out loud and began to load everything up.
He began playing it, and after an hour of playing it, he was on Mt. Kolts, to the save point just before the Vargas battle. Suddenly, something touched his shoulder that made him jump and nearly pee his pants.
"What the hell…OH my god! You're all here! YEAH!" Jason exclaimed when he looked up to see Scott grinning, Jeff right behind him laughing, and Alex smirking. "MY GOD don't scare me like that!!!" Jason yelled, standing up.
"I'm so glad you're all here…I've always dreamed of this day coming…I never thought it'd happen, though…" Jason said, hugging everyone.
"Bro, why are you playing Final Fantasy 6?" Scott asked him. Jeff nodded in agreement. "You did KNOW we were coming, right?" Jeff asked Jason.
Jason nodded. "Yeah I knew…what, you take me for a fool?" He said, crossing his arms.
The 3 of them nodded hesitantly, laughing and grinning. "Of course we do…you ARE a fool!" They all chimed in at the same time.
Jason fell over on the bed and laughed. "Funnnnny! Actually, I wanted to show off my great, super-duper Final Fantasy awesomeness skills! MWAHAHAHA!" He roared.
Everyone began to sweat. "Riiiiiighhttttt Jason…whatever you say…" Jeff said, laughing a bit. "Well then, let's see your EXCELLENT skills then!" He said, chuckling a bit.
"All righty! Here we go!" Jason yelled, raising his hand in triumph. He unpaused it and began to run around the mountainside, heading towards Vargas. Lightning was striking many times outside, and it was getting closer…and closer…and closer…
"All righty, there's Vargas! Here I come you!" Jason shouted, with a tone of cockiness and laughter. "Piece of cake!" He said, entering battle with Vargas.
Everyone was huddled on the bed watching intently. Alex had her arm on his shoulder, Scott was leaning against him, and Jeff was patting his back. Suddenly, a bolt of lightning struck, jolting the house, and magically sending the four friends into a surreal place…A Dreamer's Fantasy.
