New Beginnings

My name is Matt, I'm 17 and I live in san-fransico California.

My entire world just turned upside down.

Things are happening and my life is spiraling out of control.

ok. ok. let's just start from the beginning

....

Why is it that Mondays are always the day when things just suck. Why couldn't this have happened on a Saturday or something?

BEEP, BEEP, BEEP, BEEP, BEEP.

UUUUUHHHHHHHHGGGG.

"Another boring a*s Monday. can't wait to see what fu*ker will ruin my day today"

There is something you should know about me though, no matter how long ot how well I sleep I'm still tired. It was pointless anyway but I actually slept last night.

I don't know why but I had had a weird dream.

It was full of places I'd never seen, animals that only existed before they were killed off, actual plants. Thhis was the old world.

through that dream I saw the old world change from the green grass, the trees that used to touch the sky, the pure blue oceans. Only to see it wither away to concrete, pollution, and smog.

but swimming through my conscious was a single part of the dream,

"Do you want to stop this from happening again?."

I had said yes without thinking much of it but it kept coming back into my thoughts.

I had thought about how much the world has changed since I was little.

The people who wanted to go green were too small to make a difference.

The major company's kept on profiting off the planets resources and didn't stop.

and when people finally started to realize that the planet was on it's last breath, you couldn't even see the stars at night through the smog.

I wanted to just stay in bed, but I eventually had to get up and stop the alarm. I reluctantly got up and got dressed,

I went to the kitchen I'm my apartment i made myself some scrambled eggs and some toast, little did I know it was probably my last normal meal.

Afterward I started heading to the bus stop, for some reason I had a feeling of dread as if I would never see any of it again.

what would await me later that morning? another another day of boring schoolwork.

The school I went to was like a brick, it was bland and repetitive I did not want to go but it was all I could afford with the amount of money I had. though regretably I had to go to school.

I was a side character, someone who never went to any events or did anything significant I just was there. as I thought about it I came to the bus stop.

You would be correct that I was pretty out of it, But what I failed to notice was the bus pulling up next to me. the yellow and black pattern was run down and looked like it came straight from a junkyard (which it likely was)the windows were gray from the buildup of gunk and waste after years of abuse. the headlights were broken as well as the mirrors.

how I failed to notice this peace of work is a worldwide mystery.

I admit it was a pretty stupid mistake, I bet whoever finds this will say "you should have been paying attention" or "he's unaware of everything" the second one was partially true. I generally was not very aware of my world. I thought, eh it's just concrete and pipes so I generally became unaware of my surroundings and was not very confident in my social skills. thus caused me to be excluded.

About 15 minutes later I had thought the bus would be here by now and as I snapped out of my thoughts and found it was nowhere to be found

My heart sank. That was my only way to school!

"go$dam*it"

I dismissed it as bad luck. and was about to walk to school when, a foreign feeling suddenly gave him an idea. What if I took a shortcut through the woods?
