It was another beautiful jog in Acmetropolis.
A roadrunner with light blue and purple feathers and grass green eyes running on his two talons rushed around the corner to uptown, feeling the wind in his orange colored plumage as he ran down the sidewalk. In the side pocket of his black shorts (which had a red stripe running down the side) was a cherry red cell phone. He wore a white T-shirt with red sleeves and blue sneakers.
He finally came up to his destination, a pier overlooking a beautiful view of the ocean, and stopped, catching his breath as he got a look at the sapphire blue and sea green body of water before him. It was the first thing he laid eyes on when he was a kid.
"I knew I'd find it again," he said happily in between pants. Taking out his cell phone, he flipped it open and clicked a picture of the view. He smiled at his accomplishment.
That satisfaction was short-lived, for he soon realized he had to meet his friend on the other side of town in an hour.
"Matt's-gonna-chew-my-head-off-if-I'm-late!" he exclaimed, his words going to the quick speech of his family as he broke into a run.
Dash Runner hurried as fast as he could to the train station, unaware that the shadow of Wiseman was watching him through the store windows he ran by. As he rushed past the buildings, the sky turned gray and blotted out the bright sun.
"Funny, the weatherman said it was supposed to be sunny all week," Dash noted as he looked up briefly. Wiseman rushed for the bird on the surface of the street. He extended a bony hand to Dash's leg.
The bird felt something off and turned behind him. He looked down and saw bony hands emerging from the dark shadows.
"Oh, for the love of..." he began in his normal talking pace. "Roadrunner-speed,-don't-fail-me-now!"
He broke into a sprint, going as fast as his species can run. For he was no longer running for the train station, he was running for his life, dodging the bony hands that tried to grab him while everything went black in his line of vision. "Hello!-Anyone!-Weird,-freaky,-bony-hands-coming-to-get-me!-HEELP!" he screamed.
Above him, a red star shined in the distance. Dash didn't know what that light was, but he kept going to it, having a feeling that it was super-important. His lungs felt like they were on fire and he was sweating like crazy, but he continued to race for that light, as it was the only thing on his mind. Upon getting close enough, he extended a hand and reached out for it.
"I-got-it!" he exclaimed as he grabbed the star. It turned into a black brooch with a red triangle gem in the center. Dash turned around to find Wiseman finally catching up to him.
The brooch opened to reveal the red Memory Diamond embedded inside. The Diamond flashed with red light, stopping the hands from going any further and causing Wiseman to retreat. The light soon blanketed the area.
The blackness finally faded as Dash opened his eyes. He was on a subway cart and he had just witnessed the doors close in front of him. Relieved, he walked over to a seat on the train's bench and plopped down on it. As he was catching his breath, he laid eyes on his waist.
There was a futuristic white belt with the same brooch he got earlier on it.
