Skylar Harris!

<p>February 2016.<br/><br/>It was night. The sun had long fallen from the sky and the waxing crescent moon was at it's apex. The cool breeze of the night gently blew on the leaves of the trees in the woods and the sound of the river flowing sounded through the forest. But then suddenly, the gentle breeze intensified to the point where all the trees in the forest were swaying violently. A bright white light filled the entire area making it seem like it was daytime again and then the scream of a man sounded.<br/><br/>The bright white light suddenly disappeared along with the strong wind and the scream of the man when a loud thud and the sound of a hundred bones breaking apart, sounded across the area.<br/><br/>Everything then went back to how it was. Everything except for one sore thumb.<br/><br/>Next to the river, a man was lying on the ground, unmoving. He was bleeding so much from various parts of his body to the point that his entire clothes and the dirt around him had been dyed red with his blood. Almost all of the bones in his body were broken apart as if he had fallen from a great height and at this point, even a retard would immediately know that the man was dead.<br/><br/>Even though he was dead, he seem to be a really good looking guy. Obviously a heartthrob when he was alive. He looked to be around the age of twenty-one. His skin tone was somewhere between chocolate and light skinned black. He had short curly blackish hair and a fairly muscular build that could only be said to belong to an Olympic athlete. He also had a height of exactly five feet ten inches.<br/><br/>Under the light of the moon, what would have been deemed impossible happened. The dead man's eyes snapped open as he gasped desperately for air but it was as if his lungs had been constricted. The broken bones in his body started to snap back in place and the visible wounds all over his body started to close and heal itself. Finally, after a couple breaths of time, the previously dead man had fully healed and was able to properly breathe again.<br/><br/>Fully healed, the man tried to get on his feet only to plummet back onto the cold ground as his body was too weak from losing a great amount of blood. He tried to get up once more but this time he couldn't even get on his feet. Seeing this, he laid back on the ground to relax and regain his strength and then find out what the hell happened to him.<br/><br/>To him, he was sitting on a bench just a second ago, then then was a flash and then he was falling. And then splat, he was dead. If not for his special ability, he would have remained dead.<br/><br/>After almost an hour of resting, he had finally regained his strength. He got off the ground and onto his feet.<br/><br/>"Finally regained your strength?", a voice suddenly asked.<br/><br/>The man almost jump in surprise. He immediately turned to where the voice came from and took a fighting stance. He had always had senses that were superior to an ordinary person's. With this, he should have felt the person or at least heard their footsteps. If this person was able to conceal themselves like this, then they were obviously not human, or at least they were a person with special abilities like him.<br/><br/>When the man turned around, he saw a figure of another man in a white Chinese style robe, sitting on the ground with his back against a tree and smiling at him. The man's eyes however went wide when he saw the face of the man in the white robe.The man in white robe's face was at least 99 percent identical to his.<br/><br/>"No need to be so on guard", the man in the white robe said.<br/><br/>"Who the hell are you?", the first man ignored the other man's words and asked with a really deep voice. He had an accent which should be from somewhere in West Africa.<br/><br/>"Who I am is not important right now. The important thing right now is you", White robe said.<br/><br/>"What the fuck are you saying?", the other man was still defensive.<br/><br/>"Sit down and let's talk", White robe gestured for him to sit but the other man kept standing.<br/><br/>"Suit yourself", White robe said when he saw that the other man was still defensive and ready to attack at any time.<br/><br/>"I know I may look like you", White robe started. <br/><br/>Saying that is an understatement, the other man couldn't help but think. They didn't just look like each other, they were completely identical. Their only difference was that White robe was sporting a permed mullet which made the other man jealous, because his hair was as brittle as they come. Another difference was that White robe's hazel eyes had golden flecks in them that made him look ethereal while the other man just had light hazel eyes. Apart from those two, they looked like they were the exact same person. From the shape of their face, to their body stature, to their skin tone, to their height, they looked exactly the same.<br/><br/>The man in the white robe continued, "but I don't actually look like you. You are the one that looks like me or rather your original is the one that looks like me".<br/><br/>At this rate the other man would have thought that White robe was an idiot but when he heard the last part of White robe's sentence, his eyes went wide in surprise. How the hell did White robe know about his original.<br/><br/>The truth was that, his name was Skylar Harris or at least that was the name he had given himself. Skylar was in reality, was a clone. A clone created by the original, named Eugene Mends to solve his problem. Because of this, Skylar had a lot of resentment towards the original, Eugene.<br/><br/>The fact that White robe knew about his original meant that he also knew that Skylar was a clone which was why Skylar became more on guard.<br/><br/>The man in the white robe couldn't help but chuckle when he noticed Skylar become tense at the mention of his original.<br/><br/>"You hate him, don't you? You hate the original so much that being on the same planet as him made you want to 'unalive' yourself, but you can't even stay dead for long", White robe started. "So I took it upon myself to fulfil your wish", he continued.<br/><br/>"You're going to kill me? What are you? Some kind of genie or djinn?", Skylar asked with a chuckle.<br/><br/>"No and no. Why would you think any of that?", the man in the white robe looked at Skylar as if he was an idiot.<br/><br/>"Then what are you going to do?", Skylar asked.<br/><br/>"Being as gracious as I am, I took it upon myself to take you to an alternate universe where your original, Eugene doesn't exist", White robe explained, sounding so proud of himself.<br/><br/>Skylar immediately slumped his shoulder when he heard the last part of the man in the white robe's words and started to walk away. It turned out that this man in the white robe was just a crazy person.<br/><br/>The man in the white robe was almost angered when Skylar turn his back on him. With a gentle flick of White robe's hand, an incredible force of energy hit Skylar, knocking him off his feet and sending him into a tree, accidentally snapping his neck in the process.<br/><br/>"The audacity", the man in the white robe couldn't believe the fact that Skylar would turn his back on him. His eyes fell on Skylar's broken and couldn't help but be amused at his own clumsiness.<br/><br/>"Hehe, nice", he chuckled.<br/><br/>The man in the white robe walked up to the dead body of Skylar and nudged him with his foot.<br/><br/>"Oi, wake up", White robe said but Skylar didn't wake up.<br/><br/>Seeing this, White robe squatted beside Skylar's body. He raised his hand into the air and gave Skylar a mighty slap on the cheek. Skylar's eyes immediately snapped open, his neck also snapped back in place.<br/><br/>Skylar immediately got off the ground and distance himself from the man in the white robe in fear of the latter tossing him about again.<br/><br/>"I take you to an alternate universe and you turn your back on me. I can't say I wasn't offended", The man in the white robe said as he stood back up. Skylar didn't say anything and just took there in fear of the man in the white robe.<br/><br/>White robe sighed and said, "I was initially supposed to have just a cameo but know I have a whole for myself. I can already hear this universe's version of me shouting at me to get out already".<br/><br/>Skylar now didn't know whether the man in the white robe was really stupid or was really powerful and what he was saying was true.<br/><br/>"Check your back pocket", White robe said.<br/><br/>Skylar immediately felt his back pocket bulging. He brought out whatever was in it and what seem to be a passport, two of them actually. One was of a dark blue color and the other a dark green color, being of the United States of America and The Republic of Ghana passports respectively.<br/><br/>Skylar immediately opened the first passport and saw his face in it along with his credentials, although his credentials seem to have been modified.<br/><br/>"Did you really take me to an alternate universe?", Skylar couldn't help but ask. If it was true and his original didn't exist here, then didn't that mean that his resentment towards him could now be null.<br/><br/>"You've time travelled before. Why can't you believe that I really have taken you to an alternate universe?", the man in the white robe asked.<br/><br/>Touche, Skylar couldn't help but think. He really had time travelled before so why was the fact that he was in an alternate universe beyond belief.<br/><br/>And if this person really had taken him to an alternate universe, then doesn't that mean he's the person that dropped him from the sky? Skylar breathe out a sigh of frustration. He couldn't do anything about that since the man in the white robe was clearly really powerful.<br/><br/>"I have to go now. I can't bear the rants of this universe's version of me", the man in the white robe said. "You will probably never see me again and if you do, remember that it actually isn't me and that it's this universe's version of me".<br/><br/>"Wait, you're leaving?", Skylar asked.<br/><br/>"Of course, I can't stay here forever", white robe answered.<br/><br/>Skylar nodded his head and then asked, "Who are you, and why are you doing this?".<br/><br/>"You really don't need to know. You can just think of it as a charity case", White robe said with a proud smile on his face as he prepared to leave.<br/><br/>"Are you God?", Skylar asked.<br/><br/>The man in the white robe looked at him with an unimpressed looked and said, "I wish".<br/><br/>"Remember, in this universe, you are the original and not a clone", white robe said in an attempt to sound wise.<br/><br/>Skylar nodded his head and when he looked at where the man in the white robe should have been, there was nobody there.<br/><br/>That was when he realized something. If he had two passports, didn't that mean he was a citizen of these two countries. And if he was a citizen of these two countries, didn't that mean he now had to pay double taxes. Skylar couldn't help but feel a wrench in his heart when thinking about it.<br/><br/>Just like that, he had been taken to an alternate universe. As he was thinking about that, his stomach let out a rumbling sound. It was then that Skylar noticed that he was really hungry. Aside from that, his entire clothes and body were covered in thick, dried blood.<br/><br/>He immediately started stripping off his clothes. There was a river there so he could wash his clothes and have a refreshing bath before going into the nearest town. He was in a forest so he should be able to hunt something down to eat after his bath.</p>
