Tick Tick

It's very hard to keep up with the times but sometimes you have to deal with it to make it better. When I was first born my parents named me Lock and there was a clock next to me and my little baby like crib. Every time it was my birthday my dad would put some weird stones into the clock and then the clock would start ticking faster and faster. Until one day when my dad came home he got into a serious car accident I was only 12 at that time but as I got older I kept forgetting things about him the only words that he said to me that I remember are stones are the key to unlocking clocks. I did not understand what it meant at the time but eventually I did find out. Because when my dad died my mom made me go to school it was not exactly fun but I had two friends Tony and Trevin. Tony was better at school work but Trevin was better at sports or anything energetic. One day when I was getting out of school Tony came up to me and said I got something for you and then he gave it to me. A weird stone but it looked familiar to me so I said where have I seen it before in my head. But before I could say anything he put it in my hands and ran away. I said what is this so when I got home I showed it to my mom and she screamed then passed out. I was so scared so I picked her up and then put her on a bed and got some water. When she woke up she started crying so she grabbed it and tossed it out the window. I said WHAT WAS THAT!!!

she said sorry then continued to cry so I said what was wrong she said nothing just forget about it. So later that night I went outside in The back yard to get the weird stone. but it was glowing so I grabbed it put it on my desk and went to sleep. The next morning when I went to school Tony came up to me and said did you use it. I said no and he said why not then I said I don't know what I am supposed to do with it.
