Chapter -1
There I was.
Everything I knew, loved, and owned was burning away in front of my eyes.
Every single thing I would associate with my life was currently being turned to ashes. My Family. My friends. Everything that belonged to me. Gone.
And there I was, standing before the massive flames that engulfed my life. I was standing on highway 89. It was the only road that led into and out of my town: Trantsville, Wisconsin. It was a relatively small town, with a population of 5,000 people. The nearest town was Juffbuck, which was 70 miles away. The landscape in between and surrounding the two were a nice combination of ever expanding fields and luscious green forests.
I just stood there and watched my entire hometown and all of its belongings incinerate. I don’t know how long I stood there. I didn’t cry. I didn’t do anything. I didn’t think anything. I was just...there.
Chapter Zero
I remembered the night that it all happened perfectly clear. Almost as though I was still living through it.
I was sitting in math, 8th period. That day was the last day of school, so math was my last class of the year. It was my 16th Birthday and I was throwing a party for it at my house around 6:00 pm. Most of softmore class was going, so I was really excited. I always hated having Math at the end of the day, but this was torture. Every second felt like an hour. Since today was the last day the teacher wasn’t teaching anything, so everyone was talking and what not. Around me were my friends, Eric (Ricky), James (Huggs), Johnny (John Boy, or Old Johnson), Jenny, Crystal, and Mia.
