Author's note: I'm not too very pleased with this piece to be honest... Might do another take on it once I'm finished with the list, however it'll have to do for now. Please forgive me?
Summary: David ponders over a world without any Jumpers.
6/100: Pensive
David's POV
What would a world without Jumpers look like? And if there are no Jumpers, will there still be Paladins? I wondered as I stared out onto the street in front of me, but I barely saw anything.
What would life look like? What would I be doing right now instead? Would I be like any of those people? My vision focussed and I looked at the crowded street. Most people were going home from a day of work or getting some easy take-away food, just like I was waiting for right now.
My order was called and with my mind still somewhere else I picked it up. As I jumped back to the lair a few blocks from the restaurant I couldn't stop thinking. What would my life have been like, if there existed no Jumpers and if I had been born as a normal child? Would I like it? Because then I would never have seen all the spectacular things I've witnessed the last few years. Nor would I have been to the places I've visited or got to know the people I've met. Would perhaps my life have been better?
"What took you so long?" a murmured voice said and broke my line of thought. I glanced up to see Griffin lying stretched out onto the sofa and a smile appeared on my face.
No, it wouldn't have been better, because in it I probably would have never met Griffin.
