"Wake up!" yelled a boy names Austen. Austen is a young man who is a little on the overweight side, he has dark brown hair with a good looking facial structure, he has clean face, as smooth as a babies bottom. Austen on this fine day was sporting a plain dark red shirt with a pair of dark gray sweat pants on. "you've been sleeping forever!" Austen yells at a sleeping man while standing over him.

    Suddenly the man awoke and his hand grabbed Austen by the throat, the man said with violence "if you yell at me one more time, I'm going to punt your ass through the window." He said with a slight snarl in his voice, he then shoved him away.

    Austen jumped back "Jesus, Xander! Someone looks like they haven't had their coffee today." He said while holding his neck after it being slightly strangled.

  The man, Xander looked up at with a serious face. "I don't drink coffee, at least not anymore." He said with a flat expression on his face.

    Austen sighed and started to walk away "you just ruin all the fun, don't ya?" Austen says as he walked out of the door.

    Xander sighed and got up to get ready for the day ahead of him, he then walked into the bathroom and looked at himself in the mirror. He examined his features, Xander was far on the healthy side, he had a farmers tan from the days of working with his grandfather, Xander has a good looking body, his face is strong, in a good way, he has a strong jaw line and a slight beard growing on his face. Xander had blonde hair that was shortened and spiked up in the front. "I can still remember the days when I would wish to grow a beard, now I just shave every few days" he says while grabbing the razor and sighing, he then proceeded to remove his facial hair. After Xander got done doing the usual morning routine, he walked out of the bathroom and he chose his outfit out for the day. Xander put on a black baseball tee and a pair of blue jeans, along side with his black and orange Nike running shoes. Xander smiled and looked out the window 'This is the exact reason why I love living in Georgia, the trees, along with the sun, it's gorgeous' he thought to himself. Xander walks out of his room and looks to his left, "huh, he hasn't come out yet, he must've been playing those damn games again." He says as he travels down the steps of their shared home.

    "Hey Xander, catch!" Austen said as throws the apple as hard as he can, aiming straight for Xanders face.

    Xander instinctively caught it. "Nice to see you're awake enough to know the morning drill!" Austen said with a toothy grin.

    "Yeah, it's one of the few beneficial things you do around here." Xander said with a smart ass grin, he then proceeded to take a bite into the apple and chew with satisfaction.

    "Hey! What's that supposed to mean?" Austen said with a hard stare.

    "Hey, calm down man, I mean, you totally didn't yell at me to wake up and proceed to annoy me." Xander said smiling.

    "well, maybe you shouldn't have stayed up until eleven at night! I went to sleep at nine and woke up at eight!" Austen said beaming with pride

   Xander rolled his eyes and sighed "Moving onto more important things of like, what are we gonna do today?" Xander said with a pleasant smile on his face.

    "Dude! We should totally go and see Batman versus Superman!" Austen said in his cheerful tone.

    "Well, it would get Justin out of that room!" Xander said with a chuckle.

    "Yup, it sure would!" Austen said while looking upstairs.

     Xander turned around and walked into the kitchen. Xander furthermore moved to the fridge, pulled out a bottle of water, and chugged down half of it before hearing the pitter patter of feet on the hardwood, he turned around and saw Justin coming into the kitchen.

Justin was a skinny 18 year old that tended to play to many video games at night, Justins facial features consisted of a strong jaw line and a bowl haircut that girls seemed to love, Justins face was a smooth cut, he could grow a beard but he didn't like how it looked.

    "Holy shit, you look dead!" said Xander while slowly sipping on his water.

    "I was playing to many games last night" said Justin in a groggy voice.

    "Dude, you can play games, but you are gonna have to grow up, youre fresh out of high school and you still don't know what you you want to do for a living." Xander said with a hint of concern.

    Justin sighed and looked at Xander "look, I don't want to worry about that, okay?" He said with a tone that screamed 'please, don't annoy me today!!!'

    Xander sighed and chuckled "alright, I want talk about it today, but you can't run away from it forever! Now go and get dressed!"

    "Why?" Justin exhaled and looked at Xamder with a annoyed face.

    "Because." Xander smirked at Justin

    "Please, Xander, stop, please." Justin said in a begging tone

     "Fine. We are going to the movies to go and see Batman versus Superman."

    Justins eyes seemed to light up really quickly "Oh, hell yeah!" Justin then hurried out of the kitchen and up the stairs.

    Xander chuckled and sighed "I never new he liked movies that much." Xander headed his way into the living, where he saw Austen talking on the phone with one of his friends it seemed like.

  Austen hung up the phone and turned around to see Xander standing there. "Ah! Good that you walked in here, because Jerald wants to go to the movies with us"  

    Xander smiled and nodded "Well, we haven't been hanging out much recently so why not hang out on a day where we have nothing on the to do list." He smiled wide and sighed with happiness.

    Austen stared at Xander oddly "You seem happier than usual today, don't you think?" He crossed his arms waiting for him to respond

    "Oh, yeah...." Xander said while rubbing his neck "well, I guess I'm always happy when I'm around my friends, you know?" Xander smiled at Austen to prove his point.

    Austen smiled back and said "if only you were like this all of the time!" He then smirked to show he was joking

    Xander shrugged and said "Well, I would be like this all of the time if we actually hung out like normal friends would" Xander said trying to express how he feels about hanging out.

    Austen and Xander heard Justin coming down the steps and eventually saw him pop out from around the corner

    Justin looked at them and said "so... Are we ready to go?" Justin said expecting a response

    Xander smiled and said "we have to get Jerald first, since he wants to take this opportunity to hang out with us" Xander said with his usual calm relaxing voice.

    Austen started heading for the door and opened it "ladies first." Austen said with a smirk

    Justin rolled his eyes and said "fuck you, dude" while heading out of the door

    Xander nodded at Austen to say thanks for holding the door open for him and headed for his car, a 2007 Ford Mustang Gt.

    Justin looked at Xander unamused "are you gonna stand there or unlock it?" Justin said with aggravated tone.

    Xander realized and hit his unlock button "looks like Justin beat you to the passenger seat, Austen, looks like you'll have to sit in the tight backseat." Xander said with a tone that said 'sorry'

    Austen sighed with pity for himself "damn, backseats and Mustangs do not go together" Austen proceeded to let the seat forward and squeeze into the back.

    Xander chuckled at Austens words and got into the driver seat, he then turned the key in the ignition, letting the car roar to life "that's the main reason I bought this car." Xander said with proudness in his words  

    Austen slapped himself and said "all this car does is ooze with testosterone" he said while rubbing his face

    Xander laughed and said "but yet it's a female!" He then rubbed the shift knob to show the car some love and put it into reverse to let the car roll out of the driveway.

    After about a twenty five minute drive of constant talking about who will win between Batman and Superman, they eventually arrived at their friend Jeralds house, when he walked out of his house they saw his outfit. Jerald was at the max of the healthiness scale, Jerald was a very strong individual that was currently wearing a black under armor shirt, Nike shorts, and black running shoes. After doing the whole 'letting people into the back of a Mustang' process again, Jerald finally got to say hi

    After Jerald got comfy he said "What's up, guys? Are y'all ready to see Superman kick some ass?!?" Jerald asked excitedly.

    Austen gave Jerald a death stare "No, no, no, you are mistaking sir, Batman will be kicking some ass, more specifically, supermans ass." Austen said with a proud smile.

    Jerald eventually removed the smile off of Austens face by saying "nah, this movie won't last that long, Superman's just gonna snap Batmans neck, dude!"

    After a little bit of arguing the two they eventually just ignored each other.

     Justin turned to Xander and said "so, how do you like the car ever since you got it?" Justin asked trying to spark up a conversation.

    Xander seemed to light up when he said this and said "oh, I love it! It's so mint, man!" Xander smiled wide.

    Justin smiled "well, you deserve it after saving up all of that money!" Justin chuckled at Xanders reaction.

    Justins expression went into full confusion.

    Xander noticed and asked "what's wrong?" His voice filled with concern.

    Justin exhaled and said "oh, it's nothing, I thought I saw a spark on the road, that's all" he said while leaning back into the seat.

    Xander smiled and laughed "that's what you get for playing games all night!" He continues to bare his smile on his face.

    Justins expression fell flat "dude, you don't see that?" Justin asked with fear in his voice.

    Xander got concerned for Justin until Xander started to see it too " What the hell?" Xander said quietly to himself

    The car started shaking and sparks were flying everywhere, Everyone was yelling or saying some sort of cuss word in the book, they were scared for their life when they saw what appeared to be a worm hole in space, they just froze, they didn't know what to do, it felt like they were moving slowly through it until the last thing they saw was the trunk of a tree.

   Xander woke up in a field of flowers "W-where am I?" He then looked down at his hands and they looked smaller, about as small as they were his freshmen year of high school.

    "Xander...." A voice said trailing off in the wind "help... Me...."

    That voice... Xande knew that voice and then it hit him "M-mom?!?" He said desperately.

    "My baby boy...." His mothers voice continued to say in the wind.

    Xander looked around with tears in his eyes "Give me a second chance! I can save you this time!" He cried out desperately.

    "I always hated you." His mothers voice said from behind him.

    Xander turned around quickly and saw his mother, a dead woman with red hair and pale skin, you could see her cheek bones through the flesh. "M-mother?"

    The woman had a knife in her hand and raised it "I always hated you" she said with a cold voice. The woman slammed the knife into Xander eye, he screamed in pain, and then like before the car hit the tree, he was in the worm hole of space, he saw the long tunnel that looked like it lasted forever.

    Xander sprung awake, gasping for air. 'It, it was a dream!' He thought to himself before wiping his hand over his face, he then pulled his hand away fast when his face had a sharp pain run through it.

    Jerald squatted down beside Xander and patted his back "you okay?" He asked with worry in his voice.

    Xander exhaled and inhaled deeply "no, I just lost my car, and I feel like shit" he said while looking towards his car, the front end had been crushed, the engine looked like it could be rebuilt, but the car itself was definitely dead, the frame appeared to be a little crooked from his angle.

    Jerald sighed "yeah, the cars definitely gone man, but hey! At least we're still alive!" He smiled to stay positive.

    Xander smiled at Jerald for him trying to be nice to him "thanks, i just don't know what to do, never in a million years would I have dreamed of something this." He said shaking his head.

    Jerald nodded "I'm with you on that one!" Jerald said showing some emotion in his voice

    Xander looked around and said "where are we exactly?" He asked, oblivious to everything going on around him.

    Jerald exhaled and told Xander "well, we're not sure, we had Justin go and look for help and he eventually came back and said there was a town not to far from here, so when you get ready to move, we are going to that town to get assistance." He said with while popping some of his knuckles.

    Xander slowly stood up to avoid passing out again and turned towards Jerald "I'm ready to go now, I'm just ready to get away from this mess." He said with sad tone.

    Jerald frowned when he heard Xander talk like that "okay man, we're gonna head out now" Jerald said comforting Xander. Jerald gave Austen and Justin the signal to lead the way towards the town.

    Xander waked quietly most of the way, he had a depressed atmosphere about him, he just wanted to see a movie, and what does he get? Confusion, bad memories, a wrecked cars, a bad reputation for driving, and he suffers the amount of money he lost due to the car.

-A few minutes later-

    Xander stood on the hill, looking towards the town, it seemed very colorful, it oozed out peacefulness just by sitting there 'hopefully we won't have any troubles in town, I don't know how much more of this I can take.'
