Chapter One: The Beginning - Written by ChaosHarlequin

Lance sat at his computer, logged into Facebook, typing away at some immature comment. He really hated those. Especially when they were about him or anyone he cared about, which it was. Sure, it was just a Comment, but it didn't help the Fact that the more Popular guys at School had decided it would be hilarious to beat him up. His left Rib felt like someone had broken it in multiple places, and his eye was swollen as heck. He was bleeding when he'd gotten Home, but he'd managed to fix Himself up before he passed out. He didn't want anybody to know that he'd been bashed. Lance looked at the Screen again, feeling the anger fill him.

That Lance guys is a creep, apparently he watches My Little Pony. What a Loser! =P

Lance balled his hands into fists, and was seconds away from putting his fist through the screen when the status updated. Luckily, his best friend Turns was nice enough to stick up for him. Turns and Lance had been friends all the way through High School, and they'd always stuck up for each other, through thick and thin, Lance would always be Loyal, and Turns would always make everyone crack up into hysterical laughter, including Lance. Lance was the cool, calm one, who was almost way too sporty, and got a lot of chicks, but never dated them. Lance had lots of admirers, due to his Cross Country Record of running 2 Kilometers is 25 minutes. Yeah, it was unbelievable, but he somehow managed to do it in that time. Lance thought back to that day, and remembered.

He was sweating brutally, perspiration rolling around all over him, but the wind was what kept him going. He loved the feel of it and always wished he could just grow wings and fly off into the Sky, relax on some clouds. Lance knew he couldn't go any more, but then something amazing happened. As he stood there, a Rainbow streaked overhead, at a speed that he thought he could match. As soon as he saw it, he felt something push him to chase it, and he did. He sprinted for 800m straight, towards the finish line, and all the while he kept his mind focused on one thing. That if he was fast enough, he would be able to catch that rainbow, and whatever caused it. The people at the finish line were amazed to see the fifteen year old streak past them at a seemingly inhuman speed, following a rainbow. He didn't stop until he lost sight of the rainbow, which had disappeared into the woods. The woods, right behind his house.

Lance was shocked back into the present as he heard a knocking at his front door. He wondered who it could be, as he was sure all of his friends were busy. Lance stood and looked at the screen, noticing another post.

He is not a creep, you're just retarded. You shouldn't be such an ass to him.

There was Turns, sticking up for him like always. Like Lance, Turns was a party animal, but instead of picking up and chilling, he was the skilled bastard standing at the turntables, ripping out the best beats like it was nothing. Lance and Turns were both capable of making anyone fall for them, except for one difference. Lance looked down for a second, a hint of confusion in his eyes. Sure, they were both good at picking up, but Lance was sure Turns would never hook up with a dude. I mean, sure Lance was wasted as fuck, but seriously? He tried to keep it a secret, but almost everyone found out. That's how shit works, right? You have a secret, it'll fuck you over. That one encounter had given Lance a reputation, and although all the Girls loved him to death, sometimes there would be the awkward gay guy wanting to get into his bed. He hated it so much sometimes, they all expected him to fuck them. Even the thirty-five year old pedophiles.

Another round of knocks at his door made him focus. Lance would just go down there, and yell his head off at whoever the hell was knocking on his door. He wanted to be alone right now, to contemplate what the heck he liked and what he didn't. He basically wanted to do a Kung-Fu kick out the window and land on the person below, but he controlled himself, just like he was taught to by his Family.

He walked down the stairs, grumbling and cursing under his breath. His dark brown hair matted against his head due to him just getting out of the shower. His dark blue eyes, which were imbued with tiny, sparkling droplets of gold, registered barely anything as he walked down the stairs. His shirtless torso was well muscled, and no doubt whoever it was, if they knew him, would either assume or figure out that he had just had sex. Lance opened the door to find Turns standing there, in the rain. Why he was there Lance had no idea. no idea at all. Lance quickly pulled his friend inside, with a weird glance.

"What the fuck man, standing out there in the freaking rain, I'm going to laugh my ass off if you get sick. You little douchebag". Lance said the last sentence in a lighthearted tone, not really letting on that he was worried at all. "So why the hell did you come here, anyway?" Turns looked at him with a grin. "Dude, you KNOW that I needed to show you my new mix, but hey, sorry if I 'interrupted' you, or anything". Turns said that with a massive smile plastered to his face. Lance knew just what he meant. In fact, Lance had been busy, with a Girl. She'd left a few minutes ago and Lance'd had a quick shower to was the sweat and other, fluids, off of himself.

Lance pointed upstairs. "Meet you in my room, I'm going to put some clothes on. As turns rushed up the Stairs, and Lance went into the closet downstairs, he heard someone else knocking at his door. Lance quickly put on his jeans and a white T-Shirt, then went and answered the door. He opened the door, and standing there was another of his friends, Will Takura. In the soaking rain, but not for long. Lance threw him inside as well, and pointed for him to go upstairs. In the next twenty minutes, everyone was in his upstairs room, and a beautiful rainbow had appeared. Lance looked at it as a reminder of his run, and suddenly felt the anticipation set in. Anticipation for what? How the heck did Lance know? It didn't matter. Sure, it was raining like a bitch outside, but Lance knew he and his friends would be fine to leg it to the concert.

Lance leaped up the stairs and shouted for his friends to hurry up and get ready or they'll miss it. Turns and Will were downstairs first, then the others arrived. As they left the House, the rain pelted down. They were suprised to see that the Rainbow lead right to their destination. "Well that is convenient, I mean it is pretty co-". Lance cut whoever said it off. "Guys, if we don't fully leg it, we'll be late". Lance gave them his usual 'I bet I can beat you there' grin and dashed off, but instead of following the path, he followed the Rainbow.

The memories flooded through him as he began to pick up speed, leaving the others behind. Lance was definitely not prepared for what happened next. The rainbow suddenly curved down, splitting into pieces and forming a circle around him and his friends. Lance was about to tell the others to grab hands, but then the ground fell away, and they were thrown into a purple whirlpool of confusion.

Lance reached out to grab Turns, but Turns was sucked away, then so was Will, then the others, one by one. Lance was left alone in the Whirl, trying to get a grip on the situation, but he felt himself changing. He looked down and say grass, looked up and saw sky instead of a hole, and then it all went dark.
