Chapter 1

8am
Beacon hill high, Beacon hills,

Ah Beacon hill high, my school, my home away from home, my 'I want to get the hell out of this place'.

The high school is a many things, its big and the people here are generally very friendly and all in all the days one can have here are not half bad. But that is if you ignore the killings and murders and the shit ton of weird crap that happens daily, like really what the hell, did people just forget about the ritual killings happening at the town?

As I walk through the open doors I see a friend of mine, Tracy Drake. Tracey is my only good friend here and a semi loner like me. Well she has friends but she just chooses not to spend every second with them, I don't know why, maybe she likes being alone.

"Hey shorty," said the dark skinned dark haired girl. Tracy was a few inches taller than me but she always keeps reminding me that she is taller than me, it get annoying really fast believe me.

"How many time have I asked you to stop calling me that?" I replied as we head towards my locker.

"Hmm I don't know and I really don't care, lost track."

Her attitude makes me smile, she could always do that somehow make me smile. "So guess what I found last night Tracy."

"What?" she asked as I shut my locker after taking out the books I would need. I held the book in one arm and I took out my phone in the other. I opened the gallery on my phone and showed her the pictures I took last night.

"A fallen star."

"Wait what?" she asked her voiced was raised just a little bit, she grabbed my phone and started sweeping through the images, "where was this Cal?"

"Oh just a few feet away from my house, I looked up last night before going to bed and saw this, pretty cool huh?"

As she looked through the picture, she stopped at one and she looked at me, "Cal please don't tell me that when you discovered what very well what could be the one interesting thing happening in our little corner of the world, that you're first instinct was to take a selfie with it."

She handed me the phone back with the selfie I took displayed on it I gave out a chuckle, "yeah didn't really think that one through."

"Only you shawty would do something like this," she then lead me to the second floor and to her next class, mine was the one opposite to her class.

"Oaky Tracy see you later, oh I before I forget meet me during lunch I have something to tell you."

"Ah Cal you're not going to ask me out are you?" she said giggling.

"Sorry Trace not my type," I said smirking at her.

"Yeah I know your type, bitchy and arrogant," she then motioned to my class room door where a girl was walking in.

That girl's name was Alisa Jones, the prettiest angel I had ever seen, she is a total bitch don't get me wrong but I still like her anyway.

I turn back to look at Tracy, "oh stop with the disappointed look Trace," that caused the frown on Tracy's face to vanish.

"Just hope you know what you are doing Cal, see you at lunch," she waved to me and left tp her class.

"See you at lunch," I wave back and head to my first class.

When I got into my class my eyes fell on Alisa. She's about my height with blonde hair cut pixie style with blue highlights. She has a very petite body but do not get on her bad side or thing will get very ugly very fast.

I look for only a second and then I turn away from the sight of her making out with her boyfriend. His name is Drake, major tool but she loves him so what am I to do.

I let out a sigh as I take my seat at the front of the class and pull of my notes for the economics class. I take out my glasses and put them on. I don't need them all the time but they do help when I need to focus in class.

The door opens up and Coach walks in. His name is Bobby but we all call him coach, no idea why but maybe it has something do with the Lacrosse team he coaches. He also for some reason teaches economics.

"Alright class settle down, Alisa take your tounge out of Drake's throat, Scott take a seat and you too Stilinski," once everybody had settle in he began his speech.
And that was when I tuned him out. I was a good student so I could afford to not pay attention but in all honesty economics is sometimes just so damn dull.

As I let my mind wander I look out the window. It was a pretty decent day out side and I wish I was out there instead of in here.

The sky looked so blue, i could almost get lost in it if I kept staring. And the plants were lush and eye catching.

Just then I little bird came into my view. It looked like a sparrow small and nimble it slowly flew across the window, my eyes following it, and landed on a tree branch.

I look at the little thing,it just seemed so happy. It could go where it wanted fly where it wanted just do what it wanted. And that made me wonder why am I not the same?

I have willingly put myself into a cage of concrete here and why? To learn things I might never use? Sure economics is arguably important but what about science? Physics, chemistry, how could they help me?

I realise everything has it's place in the world but I can't help but wonder.

And just as I thought that the little sparrow suddenly flew away from the branch shaking the tree and me from my thoughts.

I look at the empty spot on the tree branch and I look beyond that, and I notice something else. Something moving in the parking lot.

It was a figure a large man by the looks of it. He wore a cloak around himself covering up his entire face and body, but whoever this man was he looked dangerous and for some reason scary.

I look at the figure it seems he was looking at the school and it seemed he was looking for something. His head moved slowly from the windows next to this class and when his gaze fell on my class window, it stopped.

This man looked at the class, no he looked….. at me?

The man stared and I stared back at him, who in Beacon hills was this tall? I'm sure somebody would have heard about it if that was the case.

But this man just stared and as I held his gaze I looked at his hood. It was covered in shadows almost as if they were hiding something truly frightening. And as I continued to look, my vision cleared and I could almost make out something under the hood, and just then the figure lifted his hood and I saw, I saw, red eyes?

Then a tremor shook my gaze. I was startled and I grabbed my desk for support.

"Alright class seems that we have an earthquake on out hands, you know the drill," said Coach as he got under his desk. The students soon got up and went to sit under their chairs.

Something was going on here that didn't feel like an earthquake, I thought as I looked back at the figure walking to the giant flag pole. He raised his foot and BAM! Another sight tremor, I was shocked down on my ass and as I tried to get back up there was another tremor which pushed my back down.

"What the hell is happening?" asked one Stiles Stilinski.

I get back to my feet and see the figure near the flagpole, the footprints the figure left behind broke the concert on the parking lot. The figure lifted it's hand out of his robe and then I saw it, it's hand, it was, it was not human!

It had claws were a hand should be covered it what looked like overgrown bones. It's knuckles were also tipped with these sharp bone like structure. It looked vaguely familiar, it looked like something I should have remembered.

The creature hand grabbed onto the pole and ripped the metal pole out of the ground and swung it.

The 50 foot tall pole was swung like it was nothing and before I knew it it was breaking through parts of the building. It ripped through the wall and the other class rooms and before it could reach our's I ducked and hit the floor.

The pole went over me and as I saw it's shadow on the ground I almost thought that I was a dead man. But the pole passed on and when I raised my head up I saw the room trashed. There were bricks everywhere and glass pieces on the floor.

I look and see some chairs on the ground and some students hurt. I got up and helped move a desk up of one of my fellow classmates, Andria.

"Andria," I said as I held her her in my arms, "are you okay? Talk to me!"

She opened her eyes and looked at me, I could see blood in her blond hair. She slowly raised her hand and pointed, but not at me, she pointed to something behind me.

I turned and looked at the man, now instead of the small window I saw a giant hole in the wall and in front of it was the man. He was right there in front of the hole. And he was looking at me.

He went up to his cloak and tore it off revealing the monster underneath. Inside was a grey giant with bones sticking out of several places in his body. The giant was at least 8 feet tall, and he had a pair of green trunks on. The bones near his jaw formed what looks to be like a bread made of bones and on his bald head a crown of these broken bones. There were also several on his shoulder and legs protecting him like an armor of sorts.

And then it hit me, I knew where I had seen him before, hell everyone who knew something about comics knew who he was and then I said it, "Doomsday."

My voice was barely a whisper but the giant must have heard it, because just at that moment he turned and looked at me.

He stepped forward and walked to me and Andria in my arms. He looked at me with those red eyes and I knew fear. The fear of death.

How, how could this be? He, he is not real. He's nothing but a comic book story. And yet the grey giant now stood over me.

He drew back his arm in a fist and threw it at me. I held on to Andria, maybe, maybe I could save her maybe after killing me he would leave. And with that thought I closed my eyes and waited for the first.

My last thought was me wondering why I wasn't strong enough to save the day.

And just then I heard it.

BOOM!

It was the sound of something hard hitting something else at a great force. Like something stopped the giants fist.

And as I raised my head to see what had stopped the giants fist I saw something I would have never thought I would have.

It was a screen of red. In front of me all I could see was red and there in the center of the red was a black 's'. It was in a shield, and I and every other person in the world knew what it is. It is the symbol for the house of El. To the powerless and the innocent it means hope and to criminal and veil it meant their doom. It was the shield of Superman.

"Superman?" I said.

The figure attached to the cape turned his head, but instead of the black hair and blue eyes I was expecting to see, I saw something else. I saw someone else.

This super man had jet black hair, but he had green eyes and his face was different, the jaw was more angled and the face, it seemed familiar, almost like…. me? But it wasn't me. The man in front of my was 6 foot tall and packed like hell. Heck even I knew he looked handsome, and I am just a skinny kid who is just now getting over acne.

The man in front of me grinned a wolfish grin before turning back to the grey giant whose fist he now held in his hand.

"Alright Fakeday, lets dance," he then drew back an arm and as he did I could see he was wearing something. It looked like blue armor but skin tight and there was a red shield design at the end. But then the hand moved in a blur and got in contact with the grey giant's face sending him flying into the sky.

The hero with my face then turned to me and grinned again, "hey mini me!" his smile almost made the entire room glow, "am I interrupting your school time?"

The only thing I could do was look on in shock who, who the hell is this?

"Who…. who are you?"

"I'm you silly. God was I really this dumb?" the man then turned away from me and started moving in a blur and the next thing I know me and every other person in class was outside along with other students who also looked injured.

"You are me? But I don't look so..."

"Good? No little me you have that cute thing going on for you, stick with that it will help."

"But I'm not cute-" I started what the hell is this guy doing? He is acting as if a monster isn't there to try and kill us all.

"Oh yeah that's right I had that self depression phase in my life. Thank god that's over with." But just then a growl broke out from the forest and I saw a giant cloud of smoke going up into the air, and I could see it Doomsday was on it's way.

"Doomsday." I said in a whisper.

"No that's not Doomsday, that's Fakeday and cheap knock off the space guys made. Really annoying." Superman or me or oh for god's sake! The guy in the Superman costume then hoped and when he was about to come back down, he stopped. And just stayed there, floating.

"Take care of students for me!" he said before extending both arms in front of him and then in a red and blue blur he went like a bullet and hit the grey blur that was Dooms- I mean Fakeday.

And then the aerial battle began, I adjusted my glasses again and again thinking they might play tricks on me, what I saw was no trick. The red and blue blur in the sky was knocking around the grey giant like he was nothing, and then with one final hit from the blur the grey speck landed in what I guessed was the football field.

I had to see what was happening, I gently put Andria on the ground and ran. I ran as fast as my legs could carry me and soon my vision became blurry, an athlete I was not.

But just as I was about to stop to catch my breath I heard it, a boom. The same sound I heard when Fakeday and the Superman first began their fight. And that snapped me out of it.

Suddenly my vision was clearer. I could see everything and my legs became light almost non existent, and so I pushed on. And slowly the school building wen behind me in a blur, and before I knew it I had crossed the school and made it to the Football field on the other side.

And there I saw it Superman was using what looked like red laser beams from his eyes to push back Fakeday. And it was working, the grey giant's skin was burning and it bones were melting in some areas.

But just as I walked into the field Fakeday notices me. It jumps, disengage from Superman and headed towards me. I ran as fast as my legs could carry me and soon I felt my legs feel light again and I saw my surrounding become once more a blur.

I was sure Fakeday was right behind me, but when I turned around I realised I was away from him on the other side of the field. Fakeday looked surprised as his red eyes widened, but Superman, with my face instead on Clark Kent, just smiled.

Fakeday jumped again and I ran again making to the other side of the field before anything could happen. And then I realised what I was doing, I was moving in super speed!

"Alright play time is over Fakeday time to go home," Superman said as he threw something as Fakeday and it exploded forming what looked like a portal. Fakeday tried to escape but the portal absorbed him into it and slowly it started absorbing everything else.

The wind picked up and the sky darkened as he light from the portal dwarfed every other light source.

The winds slowly hit me and it tried to push me to the portal. My legs gave out and I was sent hurtling towards the portal but just before I went into it Superman caught me and held me down.

"Alright mini me this was fun, but I have to go." He set me down and looked at me, I couldn't see his costume as it was covered in shadows, but I could see his cape properly.

I stared at him, "who are you?"

"I'm you, from the future," he said with not a hint of humor in his voice.

"Wait what?!"

"Remember that star you touched?" I nodded, "well that awakened something in you, it awakened your inner potential. Basically made you, who was destined to be awsome, awsome faster, get it?" he ended with a grin.

"So in the future I'm… a hero?"

"Yup, best one there is, also the only one," he answered with what seemed to be a pout.

"But I can't, I can't be a, a hero."

The older me just smiled and went down on one knee, "listen mini me, never say that. You are important and you will do great things if you just believe. I do, and I guess that mean you already believe in yourself." He chuckled a little at his own joke.

"Is that why Fakeday was here to kill me? To kill you?"

He nodded, "yup in the future I am human kinds champion and Fakeday and his bosses don't like that."

"Who are they?"

"I can't tell you kid, might disrupt the future too much and believe me when I say many have died to make sure it is a bright one. I can't risk it. But I can tell you one thing, belive in yourself and that no matter how hard it gets, there is always a way."

The future me then tapped me right in the center of my chest, right in the center of the medallion I were under my shirt. My brother gave it to me before he… before he died.

It was years ago, but I never forgot. I still remembered what he said to me when he was on his death bed, when he gave me the triskelion medallion that I now where all the time, He said, "Cal remember there is always a way."

The future me smiled, he stood up to his full height and for the first time I can really see his full costume. It is the same one that superman wears in the new 52, the blue and red battle armor.

He turned away from me and walked to the portal, he lifted his right hand and gave a two finger salute, "see ya soon little me." Before he left he turned to me and said, "remember never give up."

And with that he left into the portal which then collapsed into itself. The wind stopped blowing and the sky turned normal.

The only thought that was running in my head is that fact that one day I could fly and be free. That I could one day protect and that one day I would have meaning to my life. Also I looked so fucking cool in the future, I am tall as heck to.

Reviews! Please?

Also tell me what you think of the story so far, any questions? Any suggestions?

Also I wish to thank Alfred for helping to inspire me to continue writing this story.
