THE MYSTERIOUS BOX
Written and typed by: Sauron422416
CHAPTER 1: The Dream
It was a dark, stormy night...the trees were moaning as if were eerily alive, the leaves were slowly being flown by a cool yet refreshing wind. Nonetheless, there was a cloaked man carrying a box, standing in the wet rain.The man had a dark black suit with a mysterious hat. As he slowly treaded across the side walk, he swung the box back and forth as if a swing on a deserted playground. His shoes clinked on the ground, and for some peculiar reason no one was walking in the lonely streets.
Alas, he got to his planned destination: a brick apartment with towering quartz arches, a gargoyle statue was atop on both sides, and on the side of the entrance stood an old sign. So antique it was that the letters were fading and could be barely seen by a naked eye on this stormy day.
There, he dropped the box on the steps to the main entrance and secretly dropped a note nearby the even I could not see...
No one saw this event, nor ever again...
"BEEP!"
"BEEP!"
"BEEP!"
Jim Hawkins woke up from the strange yet curious dream. As the repetitive alarm clock still continued to beep, he was recalling about what he had just seen...
"The man...The box...The note..."
Jim Hawkins was just an average 12 year-old. He of course had to go to school and loved video games. A couple of years ago, his cousins from California gave him the infamous gaming console: the SNES! Soon, he was hooked up to it and could not stop playing it; what was originally considered to be a usual past-time, was now turned into hours of addiction...
Today was a Saturday, this was actually great! This gave him ,as a gamer, more time to play and instead of waking up at 6 A.M. to go to school. Recently, he has been flunking down his grades: he got 2 C's, 1 big fat F on Math, and he only luckily got 1 A on Social Studies. Now, he LOVED Social Studies, he was very interested in Wars and Greek and Roman history; the only thing he did not like about it was...TESTS. He IS able to memorize complicated dates in history so...this subject is indefinitely good for him!
"Ahh....what a beautiful day!" yawned Jim as he got his childish blue bunny slippers onto his feet, he sprinted past the hallway near the room where his mom slept peacefully (as he passed by, she actually got roused up a bit) and went towards the basement...or "Bro. Cave" as he called it. It was a gaming room full of a plethora of shelves, lined up with popular hits to classics. Super Mario and The Legend of Zelda were only some of them! There on the wooden table sat a huge Samsung Plasma TV which hung on the wall. This was actually originally part of the living room (which explains the quality) but Jim managed to convince his mom to trade his old TV (which was good in condition and acceptable but wasn't advanced) for the new one.
He opened up his trusty Wii U and inserted the Super Smash Bros disc and started playing. His best friend, Rusty, usually played with him during the weekdays. They liked to communicate using the microphone which was a new feature for this title of the series.
"Hey Rust (a nickname Jim usually calls him)! How are you doing?"
"Fine...I guess" Rusty mumbled as they ferociously battled, the sound of buttons clicking was the average sound in this confined area. That was when Jim knew something was wrong...but he did not know what...
"You okay? You seem...nervous. Is there something wrong?" Jim asked his best friend. But Rusty could not hold it any longer..."Okay! Okay!!! Yes...I do have something that is bugging me since last night...I had a dream..." Rusty replied as he pressed the pause button.
That was when Jim Hawkins' smile slowly faded and for the first time, was silent...
TO BE CONTINUED...
I just want to say...thank you for reading my first chapter of a new book I'm working on! Chapter 2 will be coming soon, either next week or so (it takes a while to type and think of a plot, also I have to proofread) but if this gets a lot of views and comments, I will make it as soon as possible! Please note I still have school on Monday-Friday. If you please, leave some suggestions below, or tell me what YOU think will happen next! One of your theories/guesses may be featured in my next chapter (MAYBE)!
