Adventure Fantasy Science Fiction

"where am i?" i asked. the doctor locked down at me then smiled. "you're in the hospital." i shook my head. "no no no!" i wasn't supposed to be here... how'd this happen? what happened?

'i remember!'

“ hello blue!” my best friend kiya kiroshi said for the sixth time this day. It was now approaching lunch period when kiroshi started greeting me again. “Can you please hush?” I asked as politely as I could. Since he was my friend, I did not want to be rude in any possible way, but that wasn't for too long. 

  “Are you going to the midnight festival?” he asked. Now annoyed as angry, I slammed my hand on my desk and yelled, out of anger. “ for the love of Jesus christ shut up!” At this point the entire class itself had stopped talking. I guess they've never seen someone yell at their friend, despite the fact that they also do it. Kiroshi had a feared look upon my face as he was cowering below. he was the size of an ant compared to me so that also explained it.

“I just yelled at you, get up.” I hissed. For a minute no one not even the teacher spoke, that was until someone from behind me spoke up. “Dude dont wanna freak you out… but you're burning up.” For a while I had no idea what he was talking about. I put my hand out for Kiroshi to take but he pushed it away and scampered near a few other girls. I shrugged and began walking. As I started, a few students started whispering and mumbling.

 “His flames died down.” 

“Why is he the chosen one?” 

“He's a monster just like the others.”  

These were the comments and questions I heard. There were more, but I didn't hear them correctly or at all. I made my way to the boys bathroom and washed my face. ‘What is happening today?’ i thought to myself. My thoughts were rudely interrupted by the hard banging of the boys restroom door signaling that it was opened with force. Turning from the sink, I saw the two faces of the biggest brats in jakie yates high. I sigh and put my head down. I was not in the mood of having yet another beating. 

    Before I made it to the door, I felt my entire body fly back and hit one of the bathroom stalls. Adrenaline spread through my body as I felt the pounding pain in my head. I reached up to my head feeling warm liquid on my hands. “We heard you had a little show in the class.” Tyler said, I tried my hardest to get myself up but there was a sudden weight on my chest. I choked a little. “Stay down.” he demanded. Well what else could i do?! 

   “Get the knife from my bag.” tyler said. My eyes widened as I forced myself to struggle. In response, I got a kick to my face. My vision was blurred and I could definitely see the silver sparkle of a knife. My vision faded to black after that. Even if I was knocked out, I could har Tyler and Andy screaming. Blood curdling screams. 

   "did someone save me?" i asked aloud now seeing that this isn't a modern day hospital. if it was, i was somewhere away from my school and home. "actually yes ." said the nurse. "kirito is your savior, but he went home after bringing you here." she said quietly. "oh..."

i was soon let out and everything around me was different. so many furry creatures and supernatural beings. i'm so confused. where am i? how did i even get here? and who is kirito? i need to find him.....

p.o.v change(enter ashton taylor)

“You're late yet again i'm surprised you haven't gotten suspended.” said my best friend as i sat down.  “I overslept.” I replied yawning. “ẅhat happened this time?” he teased. I rolled my eyes and looked out the window not speaking. A month ago something weird happened to me. It was a saturday night and my family was hosting a barbeque party for the neighborhood. The entire day went perfect until the incident.

  “You seem to have more time for my sister  but when i need you it's not important!!” I yelled at my mother. “Ashton elizabeth taylor you better lower that tone of yours.” she hissed. “No! I'm sick and tired of trying to be the perfect son! And i’m so fucking sorry if you couldn´t get  two girls, i try and try yet you dont understand the pain i go through!”  I was about to speak again but I soon stopped by a sting on my cheek. I held my cheeks and a few gasps were heard. “You bitch!!”I screamed out of rage and then the ground started to shake. “Earthquake everybody get down!” my father screamed. All the people that were there started screaming and getting low but the earthquake didn't bother me. “I wish you would just die!”I screamed.               

   I got my wish soon after when a bolt of lightning came crashing down on my mother. My wide eyes stared at my mother's crisped body. I was surprised at first but then i didn't care. Ever since that day more weird things have been happening to me. Yesterday I kept waking up to someone calling my name. The day before, I created an explosion because I was angry at my ex. The day before that my father witnessed me flying. The day before that I made fire come out of my hands. And.. you get the point. 

  “Hey can you go with me  to the store after school you know how i get walking home alone.” fey asked. I shrug. “Even so, why isn't skylar going with you?” I asked since he would usually walk with Skylar and I'd get a ride home or take the bus. “She's going to a party for girls.”he mumbled. I hummed in response and looked forward to the board. 

    School ended and I stood outside by the school gates. Fey didn't have the same last period class as me so i had to  wait about ten minutes. “Hey sorry we were receiving homework.” he explained panting. I raise my eyebrows. “What did you do, run an entire marathon?” I asked. He laughed. “No, I had to get away from my crush.”I facepalm at his shyness. “Can we just go?” he nodded and we began to the store.

   “Hey Ash, want some chips?” fey asked from the chips aisle. “Sure.” I replied. I put on my headphones and turned to look at some of the books that the store had. Some seconds later, something told me to turn around. I turned and my eyes went wide. Blood splattered on my face. Shocked, I turned and saw fey’s now mutilated body and a few guys in black. In a fit of blind rage, I ran to the men ripping each of their hearts out while crying. I was then being pulled off one of the men by some peeple. 

     “Let me go!” I screamed and struggled against their grip. After a few tries, I gave up looking down. Some sirens were heard and the other people just stood there. When the cops finally came, they took fey’s body and questioned everyone. They were now on me.

 i didn't speak or answer the questions. i started to feel light headed. "can i please go home?" i asked. one of the cops shooks their heads. " we need answers." my palms began to get sweaty and my vision got blurry. "i dont feel to well." i thought before seeing black.

Surora, you're first story is certainly an interesting one. It reads like these are teenagers in high school. They are dealing with a lot more than the standard troubles teenagers normally deal with. This story seems inverted. Does the ending take place at the same time as the beginning? It reads like the first half of the story takes place immediately after the second half. "Blue" seems like an interesting nickname for your MC. I wonder how they got that name. MC had an interesting reaction when asked about the festival. Why the reaction...
