Fan Fiction ❯ Second Earth ❯ first day ( Chapter 1 )

Well ok this is my first fanfic, and please don't ask what it is about because frankly I don't even know yet, so I guess we'll all find out at the same time, any way, I'm going to start you off beyond the beginning and explain stuff along the way, any way lets get on with the story,

((Also I made all of the characters thus far. So I don't have to worry about any disclaimers.))

~~~~~~~~~~Start page one~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A girl ran down the street and turns into an alleyway. As she reaches the end she realizes that it is a dead end. She turns around and heads back but someone appears at the entrance. She stops and looks around frantically. She notices a few doors; she looks back at the person and sees that he is moving forward. She turns and runs to a door but it is locked. She heads to the next one but the guy realizes what she is doing and runs towards her. She tries the door and lets out a sigh of relief as it opens but she doesn't have time to celebrate, the guy is almost on her. She runs inside and through the building, it is abandoned but doesn't have a lot of places to hide. She glances around the room and runs into another room. As she closes the door the guy runs into the building, he looks around and starts to walk into the room farther. The girl runs down the hall and turns a corner only to see it is another dead end. She runs into another room and closes the door. She looks around the room and sees it doesn't have another door to go anywhere. She looks around again nervously and notices a window.

The guy hears her run down the hall. He chases after her footsteps and opens the door only to see that she is out the window. He tries to go after her but she is already down the street. He goes back into the room and curses at himself.

She looks behind her but doesn't see him; she stops and tries to catch her breath, when she feels something on her shoulder. She jumps in surprise and looks at who it is.

" Hey calm down, are you alright?"

She studies the guy who is before her, trying to see if he was with the one that was chasing her. But since he didn't try anything she decided that he wasn't. " Ah . . . yeah I'm ok, I was just running and I needed to catch me breath".

He looked at her and nodded. "Oh, ok I was just making sure. The way you came down the road it looked like you were scared".

She studied him again. * I could have sworn that no one was here. And that no one saw me* . "How did you see me, I looked but I could have swore that no one was around".

"Me? no I was here, maybe your mind was somewhere else"

She nodded and stood up, still keeping a close eye on him. "Yeah I guess it was, but still how did you know someone was chasing me?"

"I never said anything about someone chasing you. I only said that you looked scared, so someone is chasing you then. If you need any help I'd be glad to help you out"

She looked down at the ground then back up to him, " um . . . do you live around here?"

The guy shook his head. "No, but it isn't far away, you could come with me if you like".

She smiles and nodded, "really? Alright I'd like that"

He nodded and started to walk away, she took this cue to follow him. "So what's you name?"

He looked back at her and grinned "it isn't good manners to ask someone their name without telling them yours first. But I guess I'll tell you anyway. It is Matt"

"Oh sorry, but after being chased good manners wasn't on the top of my `to do list', mine is Amber"

He looked back in front of them, "its ok I was only kidding, I'm not known for good manners either."

She looked at him and smiled. "Then what are you known for?"

"For luring unsuspecting girls to their doom"

She stopped and her smile faded away, he stopped to look at her.

"Sorry I was joking, I'm not known for anything"

She nodded and continued to walk but kept quiet,

"I shouldn't have said that. I made that beautiful smile go away" he glanced back at him and she looked at the ground blushing

"Thank you, you might not be known for good manners but you are kind"

He laughed and looked forward again, "me nice, well that's a new one"

She looked up at him, "what do you mean?"

"Well I'm normally not nice, I just don't like to see people hurt, especially if it is my fault".

"Well that's what I'd call nice"

He looked back at her. "Maybe, but I still think your looking too far into it".

They turned a bend and she stopped, he looked back at her. "What's wrong?"

"Nothing, but is that your house?"

He looked at the house then back to her. "No, it is my parents house, you act like you haven't seen a house before".

The continued to walk. She still was looking at the house coming up. " I have, just not that big before"

He grinned "well don't be intimidated ok, I rather you act like yourself".

She looked at him and nodded, they headed into the gates and up to the stairs. She watched him as he opened the door and stepped in. "well what are you waiting for, come in".

"Ah . . . you sure I'm allowed?"

He laughed and she walked in and looked around. "Come on and I'll take you to my room"

She looked at him. "Your room?"

"Well I shouldn't say my room, more like my wing".

She followed him back the hallway to a large door, he opened it and they stepped inside, as she looked around she saw that they were in another hallway,

"Welcome to my wing, make yourself at home".

She looked down the hall, then back to him. "How far does your wing go?"

"Only around the corner. And there is another door. It's only ten rooms".

She looked at him, "well if you haven't noticed I'm not what you'd call `used to wealthy people', especially ones that are so nice, usually they want something"

"Well I'm hurt. I don't want anything from you".

"Sorry I said most people, not you"

He looked at her and smiled. "Its ok, I know. Come on and I'll show you around".

They walked down the hall, him showing her all of the rooms.

"You have ten rooms but some of them are empty".

"Well you can stay in one if you'd like to. They are for my friends".

She looked at him. "Sorry but I don't feel comfortable yet, besides I wouldn't want to intrude on your family".

He nodded and smiled and nodded. "Its ok, I understand, it is up to you, my parents wouldn't mind if you do, and I'm the one that asked you, so you wouldn't be intruding. But if you change you mind you can always stay".

"Thank you, I'll think about it"

He looked around the room,

"What are you looking for?"

"Oh sorry, I was looking for the clock. It is only 5 O'clock, so we have awhile before dinner".

She looked at him. "We?"

He looked at her and nodded. "I wouldn't feel right if I sent you away when you had no where else to go and without giving you something to eat. Besides the cook always makes extras".

She nodded. "Ok, so what are we supposed to do `till then?"

"Don't know what do you want to do?"

She looked at him and shrugged. "Like I'd know, it is your house".

He grinned. "Who ever said it had to be in the house?"

She glanced at him. "I don't care, it its up to you. As long as it doesn't include someone chasing us"

He looked at her and laughed. "Ok then do you want to head down town to look for something to do?"

"Sure, why not"

He grinned. "Please hide your joy for it"

She smiled at him, and they started walking out of the house. He stopped and looked towards a door. "How old are you?"

She looked at him, wondering why he had all of a sudden asked something personal of her. "Fifteen why?"

" Oh, you wouldn't mind if we broke a law would you?" he asked as he looked back towards her.

She met his glance. "It matters which on".

"Come on and I'll show you"

She looked at him. *He hasn't done anything to me, yet.

She nodded and they went through the door, at first she thought she had been wrong about him. But he turned on the lights and she saw it was a garage of some sort, but there didn't seem to be a door. She looked in the center of the room and saw two bikes on raised platforms. He walked forward and she followed.

"See you're supposed to be sixteen to ride these but I don't think anyone will notice"

She looked at him. "you not serious are you?, I don't even know how to ride one of those".

He glanced at her as he headed to a cabinet, "well im not surprised it is a CM-MB X ".

She looked at him like he was crazy. "a what? "

He started to unlock the cabinet. "sorry it is a custom made mini-bike eXtreme, it is a new model plus it has some parts I put on it".

She looked back at the bikes, "and how am I supposed to ride that?".

He laughed and opened the cabinet.she looked at him and he tossed her a suit, he started putting one on himself. " that is a sync suit, you'll se what it is for in a little while".

She looked at the leather suit and put it over her clothes like he had done. He walked back towards her and handed her a helmet. "you still havent told me how to drive it".

He put on his helmet and snapped the latch. "don't worry just put on your helmet and sit down"

She sat down and the bike turned on, she nearly jumped back off of it.

"whoops sorry I forgot about that, I should have told you, I normally don't ride with anyone else"

she glanced at him through the helmet. "oh its ok, I should have known, what don't you have any rich friends or do you just like making us poor people look like fools?".

He looked at her surprised. "sorry, look I don't care if you are poor or not. And im hurt that you'd say such a thing"

She looked at him and down at the ground. "sorry im just not used to all of this. All the rich people I met before were mean and rude"

He got on his bike and it started up. "ok lets go" .he flicked a series of switches and the bike started to hover. She copied his example and she rose also,

"um sorry but I still don't know how to control this thing".

"just say `command controls' " . He placed his hands on the handlebars and revved his bike up.

"command controls?", her visor on her helmet blinked and started to display the controls of the bike. After it was done she looked at him. "ok im ready"

he glanced at her and grinned, but she couldn't see it because of the helmet. "you sure?. Even with the controls you probably are ready"

she knew he was probably right but she nodded, he hit a button on the wall and the wall shifted and revealed a door. It opened and the drove out of the garage.

"not bad for a first time"

she looked at him, not sure if he was mocking her but she let it slide. He grinned and got ready to go, . he throttled the gas and the engine revved up, but they were almost silent.

"ok you ready?"

she glanced at him, "no"

he looked at he "well at least your honest, a word of advice don't hold the throttle".

She nodded and he started off, she followed him a little behind trying to get used to the swiftness of the bike.they left they gates and headed down the street "so how is this breaking the law?"

"I told you, your supposed to be sixteen to ride them".

"oh well that's stupid, they always try to keep the good stuff away from us young people".

He laughed and stopped

"hey whats up?"

"it's a red light, when your on the ground you have to obey the rules of the road".

She looked at him. "when your on the ground?, so this thing can fly?"

He looked back at her. "you mean you havent even heard of a mini-bike? Yeah it can fly, but you sure your ready for that?"

"no, but it cant be that hard to do can it?"

they started off again, "no it isnt but you'll need to learn how to control it. It is different from the ground controls, just say `command flight controls' ".

she watched him as they pulled off the road,.they stopped and she nodded. "command flight control". Her visor blinks again and the controls for the flight mode appear like before. She looked at him when she was done. "so this is possible?".

"your not from around here are you?".

She paused but shook her head. "no, I escaped from the guy that was chasing me. Im from earth. I have no clue why he brought me here".

He looked at her surprised. "earth? first earth?. hmm so he kidnapped you there and brought you here, probably because the earth has no say so up here, and your allowed to take people here".

"what your allowed to kidnap people here?".

He nodded his head. "it is called a catch, the catchers try to stay hidden because the police finally are tracking them done even if it isnt against the law. People are complaining that it should be"

"why would anyone allow such a thing?".

"I don't know, and don't ask what happens to the people that are caught, it is worse then the fact that they catch people. So you want to try it".

At first she didn't know what he meant with all of this talk about kidnapping being legal. She looked at the sky "sure why not, perhaps that will take my mind off of almost being caught".

He nodded,"hit the button on the left side".

She looked down at the controls and hit it. The handlebars shifted and the seat leaned forward more. "ok now I know what to do". She looked at the controls then back to hit, "where is the valve?".

He grinned. "remember this is a custom model. It doesn't have the valve".

She looks again at the controls "then how do you go up into the air?".

He leaned back and pulled on the handles, and the bike lifted and leaned back as well, he throttled the gas and put his heels against the pedals. He shot up into that air and turned around to face her. She nodded and did the same, she puled up next to him.

"put your toes against the pedals and push it down to make the bike go down and your heels to the back of the pedal to go up".

She nodded, "ok, im good now as long as there isnt to many planes and birds"

He glanced at her "there are no planes here, and as for birds they stay over on the west side of town"
