== Jake open your eyes and meet your new guest

The light slowly dissolves and you hesitantly open your eyes, you clear up your vision, by blinking continuously, from the after shock of the brightness of the sudden light. What in god's name was that?

You think as you rub at your eyes trying to clear away those annoying spots that you see dancing around eyes. You blink a few times clearing up the rest of those annoying spots from your line of of vision. "Were you the one that opened up the portal?" A male voice asks, from your far left.

Your head jerks to the where the voice came from which was soon followed by the rest of you. With both guns aimed at the mysterious speaker you look to where he could possibly be. You spot said speaker standing about 3 feet away from you and he's leaning against a boulder with his arms crossed over his chest, in the up most causal sort of way.

"Who are you and where did you come from and what do you mean opening up the portal?!" You question the mysterious male, as you squint at him, trying to make out any distinct characteristics.

But you are unable to make out anything other then the fact that he is wearing some type of eye wear. The only reason you are able to tell that much is because there is a beam of sunlight being reflected off of them.

"Name's Dirk Strider. I came from Derse, through that portal that you just opened. You know the one your standing next to?" The mysterious lad, which name is apparently Dirk Strider, replies in a monotone way. You knit your eyebrows in confusion and look to your right, just to see the edge of a strange symbol on the ground with a ray of sunlight shinning down upon this particular spot.

You are unable to make out anymore of the strange symbol, that apparently is this supposed to be this "portal" Dirk keeps mentioning, he also mentioned something about coming from someplace called Derse. Which you have no idea where it is, or even what it is and you have never heard of it before.

Dirk brings you out of your thoughts by asking as if on a side note; "By the way, who are you?" "Huh? Oh, yeah, right. My name is Jake English" You reply with as much uprightness as you could possibly mange.

'But that is where he says he came from, through that portal. But, is it really a portal? Or is he just pulling your leg? Even if it is a portal how in gods name did you not know before, i mean anyone would be able to see something that is basically a ginormous opening in the ground, ceiling or wall.

But you saw no such opening when you landed in the cave. Does he perhaps mean that strange purple light that had suddenly appeared a little bit after you landed and had temporally blinded you. If so, how in gods name did it open? Did you open it? Was it opened before you got there and if so how didn't you notice? And if that isn't true did you open it? How did you open it? You don't know how to open portals. But if you didn't open it then who did? Think English, think!' you frantically rack your brain for answers.

You are unable to complete your train of thought because you are interrupted by foot steps coming your way. You quickly snap out of your daze and become on guard for potential attack. The footsteps stop about 2 feet away from you.

Dirk is now currently standing directly under the opening you made, meaning he's standing directly under sunlight. Now you are able to see what he looks like, he is wearing black skinny jeans that have rips on the thighs and knees, with a black wife beater with a orange hat in the middle, he has lean muscles from which you assume are from lifting weights.

You also notice that he has a rather strange black and white tattoo on his left arm of what seems like a face with a long nose and a half grin. His wheat blonde hair stands out against his pale skin and you can obviously tell he doesn't get much sunlight. You are unable to see what color his eyes are due to the fact that he is wearing pointy anime shades, but if you look very closely you can make out the faint outline of freckles dusted against his cheeks and nose.

You find yourself staring intently at his shades trying to make out his eye color, and your mind starts to wonder. 'What color are his eyes? Why does he wear those shades? Wh-' Dirk clearing his throat, rather loudly snaps you out of your daze. "Like what you see?" Dirk says with a slight smug tone. Blushing and quickly realizing that you were staring and worse that he caught you, look away in embarrassment.

"Uh, no. I was just trying to catch a glimpse of your eyes, is all! So don't get the wrong idea, lad." You try to explain yourself, but he obviously doesn't believe you because he just raises a eyebrow at your pathetic excuse, even though it is technically true. "Whatever you say English. Well, anyway why did you open the portal anyway?" Dirk questions you yet again about the portal. "I have honestly no idea how i opened it, chap" You sigh and look at him. "Okay then.." He turns his attention to your freshly scabbed over cuts on your knees.

"You were bleeding earlier weren't you?" You know it's more of a rhetorical question, but you reply anyway. "Yeah, i fell down a steep cliff earlier and then fell straight into this cave. I barely had enough time to stand up before there was a bright blinding purple light and then next thing i know you appear."

You sigh deeply as you recall the events that had eventually lead up to this point to him, starting from when you had first started your adventure this morning. With a slight nod of his head, of understanding, more to himself then anything, he replies, "So you landed in this cave and since you were bleeding, you opened up a Derse portal, which i so happened to find and decide to come through, because ya know why hrs he'll not. And it seems like you have no clue to what happened or what you even did" The way Dirk had said that makes you think that you might have gotten yourself into something bigger then you could ever imagine.
