Chapter 1
"WHERE THE HELL AM I!"
I've been running for the past who knows how many hours I woke up in this goddamn forest. I just keep meeting problem after problem and im freaking the fuck out!
"Sqwaaa!"
"Bweee!"
'Oh shit!' I leaped towards my left as the angry giant boar charged past me and the talons from the giant bird flew by my head. With a quick role I began running again as i hear the boar skidding along the dirt in an effort to chase after me. No such luck with mister flappy tho as he can just turn on a dime apparently! This is just the shittiest situation i can possibly be dammit!
"Oh ah ah ah!"
I gasped as a giant ass red gorilla decided at this time to come screaming and yelling at my already fuked delima. Before I could even react it reached out and struck the birds head faster than my eyes could even see! The bird barley made a noise as just as quick its other hand lashed out and grabbed its beak before slamming him right next to me.
I put up my arms as the resulting moves somehow made an explosion and the shockwave launched my ass. "Oh fuck!" I screamed as my ass tumbled along the ground. Recovering as quickly as I could , I spared a glance back to my almost possible death. Cold unwavering eyes meet mine as the giant gorilla looked upon me with its new food already in its mouth.
"Gurr…" it took a huge bite from the bird.
'Oh fuck hell no!' I screamed menttaly. 'Adios amigo!' With that last thought I booked it into the forest heading deeper and deeper. I didn't care when my legs started protesting at the strain. As long as I can get away from those beats I didn't care.
After what felt like ages my body decided right then to just stop completely as i fell face first into the dirt. "Gahhh… hahhhhh…" I gasped as my lungs greddingly took in precious air. A few min went by before I moved to face towards the sky staring at the sun leaking through the high forests tops. Now all i can think about is how did i end up here and also hell like how are those animlas so fuking huge? Only in the distant past did animals even get that big and only then it was few and between.
"Where… am.. I…" I breathed out and exhaustion and lack of sleep. 'Shit don't fall asleep here idiot!' I screamed at myself but i could feel my body refuse as my eyelids grew heavy and heavy. No matter what i thought or felt my body did not listen. With a few desperate shakes of my head it was inevitable and with that my eyes closed… and sleep consumed me.
1 Day Earlier
"Beep… Beep… Beep…"
My hand slammed on top the alarm that woke me up from my blissful sleep. I looked to my side and saw the tell tale numbers 6:30 staring me in the face and with that I began the same routine I've done for the past two years.
I got up from bed, took a shower, brushed my teeth, got dressed headed downstairs and began making breakfast. A simple 2 eggs sunny side up with 3 bacon strips and a waffle on 3 plates. I placed two onto the kitchen table and took one plate over to the living room where in 3.. 2… 1…
"snore~"
I chuckled at my father's position. He was layed back in his favorite recliner, his white button up in a mess with his hands in his pants as drool went down the side of his face. Honestly it cracks me up that he falls asleep in the same position every time he gets back from work. With a soft smile i placed his breakfast unto his lap already knowing when he wakes up he won't topple it over as it was routine at this point.
"Yawn~" A small voice made itself known as I turned around. Standing was my 10 year old sister Amelia still in her blue rainbow patterned pajamas. Her long brown hair was in a mess as she dragged her yellow monkey doll with her right hand. "Good Morning big bro~" she finally let out as she wiped her eyes from dreariness.
"Your awake early? Couldn't wait to start school again could ya?"
"No! It's not my fault breakfast smells really good!"
The pout she made was glorious. After having a nice chat about her friends and future plans for highschool i helped her get ready and waited for the school bus to pick her up before beginning the rest of my day.
"Hey where is my water!"
"Why is this chicken undercooked?
"Is this how you treat your grandmother?!"
"It's not salty enough."
"Why did my wife leave me man!"
I rushed by talking like the wind and took everything in stride as I took order after order and served after serving. Sweat danced over my face as rush hour hit like a truck as always. You would think you've seen it all after working at a restaurant for 1 and a half years but humanity continues to prove me wrong.
"Ughh where's my service i've been setting here for the past hour and no one has come and taken my order?"
'Liar i saw you just sit down not like five min ago and its rush hour you goddamn moron!' I screamed in my mind. "Oh sorry sir i'll be with you shortly." I responded in my sweetest voice. I almost hacked at how sweet it was but judging from the smile i got it seemed to please him, yuck.
I went to the back into the kitchen as sounds of barking orders from superiors where made and workers making curt 'yes sirs' here and there. I went looking for order number 65 as that's one of the tables I'm serving. Before i could even get close a hand placed itself on my head.
"Oi how's the fiery spitball doing today?"
I grimaced as I turned and looked at fellow coworker and ex-teammate from the soccer team Jody Harris. He stood an impressive 6'1 that towered over my 5'6 frame. His cocky grin was out in full display with blonde hair tied into a simple small ponytail.
"Don't you have grave shift?" I growled out.
"I traded some days," he responded. That same grin still on his face.
"School?"
"Called in sick."
"Isn't that illegal somehow?"
"Dont know and don't care."
"Just leave me be alright"
"You know I won't."
I suked in some air and bit my lip. 'The nerve..' I quickly calmed my thoughts and took the order to bring it to the customers. Or I would have if someone's foot didn't get in the way.
"CRASH!"
All eyes turned to me as i was laid out on the floor with a now shattered plate with all its contents now spilled all over the ground. I couldn't believe it… that he actually did that.
'SONUVABITCH!'
I quickly got up and grabbed him by the collar of his uniform. I brought his face close to mine and gave him my angriest death glare.
"WHAT THE FUCK IS YOUR PROBLEM!" I screamed.
"YOU KNOW WHY!" Hey yelled right back.
"You two in the break room NOW!" A voice yelled at us.
We both turned our heads towards the head supervisor as he stared at us. With a shove from Jody and a snort form me we walked into the break from followed by the supervisor. With a quick slam we were both seated as supervisor Jerry also known as Hard Ass Jim aka also the man who got me this job in the first place looked at us like we were filth.
… fuck.
"Alright will you both stop being cock suking babies and explain to me why you too have been so hostile towards each other?" He finally asked after what felt like hours.
"He started it.."
"If you mean started as in paying you back then yes."
"Ass."
"Fucker."
"SHUT IT BOTH OF YOU!"
We flinched back at his words but honestly I can't help him at all. I have no idea why Jody costly picks fight with me. We left on good terms last i remembered so it can't be soccer and i remember him giving me permission to date his sister before she dumped me so it can't be that. I glared at him from the corners of my eyes, 'what is the deal…'
"Now listen here you two," Jim grabbed our attention. "You both are leaving and until you both get your shit together by the end of the week your both fired cappice?" Jody and I reluctantly nodded our heads. "Good… now get out and get your shit together."
A few min later Jody and I were standing at the back parking lot. It had gotten dark out and the moon was providing us light to this stare down. Jody now sparted a yellow t-shirt with a cat design and light blue jeans while i donned a simple dark blue sports jacket and pants combo. I must say we made a couple of delinquents right about now.
"Can we hurry this up, i gotta go make food my lil sis if you don't mind," I stated.
"Oh don't worry you'll have plenty of time to that but before that i wont you to promise me one thig." He asked.
.i quirked my eyebrow, "Sure i'll hear you out."
With that same cocky grin he pointed at me, 'how rude.'
"If i beat you right here and right now then you have to answer my one question to your full ability you got that!"
Now both my eyebrows rose in this situation. I have no clue what he's getting at but if it helps it helps. "Fine it's a dea," His grin couldn't have gotten any wider. With that it was the unofficial starting line.
His dash caught me off guard for a bit but i got my right arm up in time to parry a hard right hook from him before ducking under a very fast straight follow up. I tried backing up to get space but his footwork kept him stuck to me. 'Fucker,' I attempted a jab myself but it was easily parried and I almost got decked in the fuking chin. The fucker was trying to end it quickly!
I lowered my stance only to shot myself back up as an uppercut flew by and I swear I could feel the burn on the tip of my nose. Dam fucker is just as stupidly fast and strong as I remember.
"What's wrong Noah? Out of breath already," He taunted. Jokes on him tho cause i just needed to but my time till… now!
"EAT THIS FUC-!"
"CRACK!"
My face was burning in pain. 'Dammit ima lose to this fuck,' i yelled menttaly. What followed next was a fierce rushdown. No matter what I did the fight was now in his momentum. Chest, my sides, left temple, face, then a brutal uppercut that i swear made me fly.
"GAHH…" He slammed me down and placed himself sitting on my chest holding my collar and his right arm cocked for another blow.
"Yield Noah i won," He stated. My eyed barley focused on him and i'm pretty sure i have a black left eye. I stared at him before spitting a glob of blood at his face. With cause and effect he wasn't happy. His grin was no longer there. Surprising to see but what i was seeing… was sadness in his eyes.
"Just answer me… plz"
"..."
"Just why… why did… why did yo-!"
"CRACKLE... BOOM!"
My eyes widened at what i'm seeing. Jody also looked towards the source of the sound… which was coming above us. What was supposed to be a normal cloudy night now looked as if the world was ending as the clouds above were now spiraling and a sark pitch black. Light flew by in the sky in the clouds as if some war was going on above.
What the most concerning part was that the spiral was directly above us. I failed to notice now that the fight has stopped but it had begun to rain and what feels like a mini tornado was all around us.
"What the fuck is that!" He screamed.
"How the hell should I know?!" I retorted.
Before we could continue I watched as the lights all converged into the center very dangerously.
'Oh shit!'
The light launched straight down at us.
"CRACKLE… SMASH!'
For a brief moment I was in a white void. I couldn't feel anything at all. No sound, no sense of touch or anything. A million thoughts ran through my mind. I could only form one single thought…
'SIS! DAD!'
xXx
Amelia waited… and waited… ready to scream welcome home to her lovable big brother. However she wouldn't not get the chance. Yet she waited and didn't complain like the good girl she was. She would wait… she was good at waiting…
"CRACKLE… SMASH!"
"I hope he's okay…" she whispered.
At the same time the father was also looking out the window at his job. His overdue break supplying him with some relief. All he could think of was how to best support his family.
"It's the job of the Father to take the burden of his children.."
To what would have followed would have been a happy family going about these days would only lead to sadness as Noah Foster disappeared that day.
