Crossing-Over Prologue: Revamped (Part 1)

I woke up to the loud, humble, but annoying as all –censored for kids- alarm clock.

"Ant! Hurry up! It's time to go to the beach!"

Guess I can't even oversleep on summer break, huh?

"Alright, I'll be down there in 5!"

The one who called me down was none other than my older sister, Carmen. Even though I looked up to her, she was still very mysterious. To recap, she's energetic, joyous, yet usually full of surprises.

Hmm... I'm still wondering if mom and dad were serious about this.

My parents were always busy or working, going away on business trips and whatnot. I was just a 10-year old living with my 15-year old sister after all. My mind was a very observant one; I always tried to understand everything and made sure I knew what was around me.

"Ant! Come on!"

"Almost ready!"

I quickly brushed my teeth and changed as I checked my suitcase, smiling with anticipation.

I can't believe this is happening! This is going to be a blast!

Oh, I had no idea... Anyways, I headed downstairs and being careful to not slip off the steps, I went to go put my shoes on.

"Hey Ant, did you know that aliens are manipulating Russia and North Korea?"

"Really?! I knew it!"

This probably still bothers me to this day... I was, and STILL AM naïve, no matter what, I'll believe anyone on anything.

"Nah, just messing with you." Carmen giggled a little bit at my shocked expression as she lightly punched me. "You're very gullible. And naïve."

I just pouted and did my little signature stomp, since I was only 10 after all, at the time. You may be wondering where this all leads to, well, CHILL! I barely started.

"Alright kids, let's go!"

My mom and dad were already waiting by our Ford Expedition (*cough* Copyright) as we anticipated our day at the beach. Carmen gave me an excited look as I did a small giggle while giving back the same look.

"YES! Finally, we get to go on a vacation as a family!" My mom said with an excited tone.

"And nothing will go wrong!" Oh...

She has no idea...

"Yeah!" We all agreed even though those words sounded like a complete jinx. So, we travelled on the road as we patiently waited to arrive at the beach.

All I need to do is wait and keep wat- Zzz... And just like that, I was already asleep just like any 10-year old kid (or 16-year old teen) at the time. But, you know, I was only a kid and they were older people, so by common sense, they should be fi-

*BOOM!* *CRASH*

I instantly woke up to the calm, peaceful sounds of a waterfall. I wish that I could say that because in reality, our car was crashing!

"GWAH!" The car filled with screams of pain and fear as we crashed for about 30 seconds. Yet, those 30 seconds were longest 30 seconds of my life.

I just wanted a nice relaxing vacation!

After everything cleared, smoke just surrounded us as I looked around the car. My eyes widened in shock as I saw my parents covered in blood, not moving.

"M-mom? D-dad?" I looked for Carmen, but her empty seat only worried me more. I unbuckled my seatbelt as I groaned in pain, trying to see if my parents were alive by placing my head on their chests, only to find no heartbeats or breathing.

"No... Dangit..." I laid my head on their shoulders as I hugged them both, tears streaming down my cheeks, quietly sobbing. I heard police and ambulance sirens wailing in the distance, the surrounding forest maintaining a quiet, peaceful ambiance, despite of the scene that had just occurred.

"Clear the area! Set up a perimeter, the suspects are still in the vicinity!"

The police officers and other units were looking around the area, getting closer to my car. I didn't want to let go of my parents, I felt like I could keep holding them forever, not wanting to be alone.

"Investigate the damage, rescue any remaining survivors!"

I heard the car door open, shards of glass falling to the ground, I only looked up slightly.

"We found a survivor! A boy, his parents are dead. Come on now, we need to get you somewhere safe."

They pulled me off of my parents as I just cried even more, seeing them going even more out of sight as I was placed in the ambulance.

All I heard was murmuring and arguing around me, having previously fallen asleep shortly after that traumatizing scene depicted earlier.

Is this a bed? But, wasn't I placed in an ambulance?

I slowly opened up my eyes to find myself on a hospital bed, the only sounds coming from the TV in the room and doctors with other patients around the building.

"Seems like we got ourselves in quite a situation, huh?" I looked to the voice to see Carmen sitting on a chair beside my bed.

"Carmen? W-what's going on?"

Carmen sighed as she just turned off the TV, and faced me.

"Ant, listen... It's hard to face reality, but mom and dad are dead. There's no coming back from that. They are going to place us with foster parents for the time being."

I couldn't even react to that without making a confused face.

"Why? Who did that to mom and dad? I heard the police talking about suspects... What's-"

Carmen raised her hand to gesture me to stop, giving only a serious expression, yet doing everything she could with tears.

"The reason we left home was not because we were going on a vacation, but rather to find a safe spot. Mom and dad were always away from home because of their jobs in the government, yet they were seriously hunted down by many. That's why mom and dad died... That's why we are still alive. Our parents only wanted what was best for us, but we have to stay strong."

We heard the door open as we looked up to see the doctor and a couple of police officers standing there.

"Carmen, it's time."

Carmen simply nodded and stood up looking at me.

"Stay strong for me, okay Ant?"

I tried to say something, but didn't know what to say exactly. Carmen left the room with the police officers as the doctors came in and treated me, having no broken bones, yet still having some serious injuries from the car crash.

I'll stay strong... No matter what...

And just like Carmen mentioned earlier, I was placed in the care of foster parents. I didn't want any of my old past to carry on here, so I just respected and always gave a smile. We had fun times, going to the park or to the movie theater, having fun after excelling in school. It seemed like this was a dream too good to be true.

"Ant, it's workout day, let's go!"

To be honest, they were strict, but fun. We had workout days in which I stayed fit. I played video games, but never needed glasses (due to character development.)

And just like that, 3 years passed by... If there's one thing I've ever learned from this, it's that there's always conflict. World War III was already heating up, even in the heart of the US, which had terrorist attacks everywhere in the country. Hospitals were being attacked, homes destroyed, and people straight up murdered.

I've had my happiness while it's lasted... But now is the time to use that strength holding me for so long...

The areas around my neighborhood were filled with sounds of screams, explosions, and gunshots. Sirens wailed in the distance, the world seeming like it was coming to an end. My foster parents were already out for weeks now, since they left to do business work.

"Alright Ant, it seems that this house is now your shelter... I'm talking to myself... This is just flat out sad..."

I guess that's how paranoid I was, since I always had a small fear of being alone... Completely alone. But, I need to get used to it, at least that's what I thought at the time. I knew that I couldn't stay here forever, I needed to get to someplace secluded, so I grabbed the sharpest knives that my parents had left.

"No guns to be found... Looks like I'm going pure Melee for this one." I smiled slightly and put on my jacket, shoes, cargo pants, and a LoZ t-shirt.

"If I'm dying, it'll be representing the gaming community."

Now that is the one stupidest thing I've ever said in my life. It's so stupid that I can't even make a sarcastic remark. Why did I feel proud of it?

ANYWAYS! I quietly sneaked some food in before I left, looking around outside for any threats. Gunshots and screams were heard from afar, but quickly approaching, so I turned the other way and proceeded to head into the forest, quickly running, not looking back.

Okay, just hide out in the forest for a couple months or years... That's the plan, right?

As my feet plunged through and crossed the river, I found myself in front of an old shelter, quietly going inside only to see that it was long since abandoned.

Well, it's better than nothing... Time to start claiming this as my home...

"Retreat! Retreat! Go into this abandoned building!"

You've got to be kidding! Okay think!

I proceeded to hide behind a wall, getting my knives ready, waiting as I heard someone enter. They used their radios to communicate with their team members.

"Team Alpha anyone there?! Team Bravo!? Dangit... All the reinforcements are down."

More like all your forces...

I was about to step forward only to get a gun pointed to my face. It was a woman, about in her 20s, wearing the US Army gear, with many weapons.

"Why hello there sunshine!"

I instantly get knocked out as she swings her gun to my head. I wake up moments later to find myself tied up to a chair, the soldier sitting down in front of me.

"Now, don't panic or anything, but you could prove to be useful."

Oh no, another one of those "chosen one" clichés, this can't be good.

"Whether you are willing to cooperate or not, I'm still going to get back to base. So, are you going to help or not?"

I definitely did not trust her, but I trusted her gun a lot less, so I just nodded in order to not get myself killed.

"Fine, where do I start?"
