It's strange when time starts to slow down at the moment when you look death straight in the eyes, seeing the black, dark pits of your future. But at times you know you can change it, just a thought in your head and you listen for once that you're the new change in world and everyone is counting on you. It's a lot of stress honestly but it has to be me, not Ry not Judson not even Venously,alight she's perfect at everything, it has to be me. And here it goes, but let's start from the beginning and how I got here. I'm not talking about birth but the day things...opened up for me I'll say.

My watch starts to beep, time for school the voice in it says to me.
"Shut up" I say back knowing it never responds unless it's a real command.
"I'm sorry I don't understand command Shut Up" she says back to me. I get up out of my bed in a struggle of tangled blankets and pillows.
"Clock schedule set for School Day" she reminds me sadly, I know my schedule but she's programmed to tell me. I brush my hair getting it straight as I can, put it back in a ponytail then brush my teeth. Once again she reminds my it's time to get dressed, if only I could get the damn watch of me. I put on my usual clothes,dark blue jeans, purple shirt with a zip up long sleeve jumper. I look at my self in the mirror. My Mother's shining green eyes but my Dad's brains. I stand there for a moment listening to the cool sound of the wind outside but I knew it wouldn't last that long, cars boom bye and planes fly above, billboards talking outside, fake birds whistle outside. I sigh and head downstairs meeting my mom in the hall and say good morning of course she doesn't hear me, her head piece already in probably answering phone calls. I walk past her in the hall because she stops now and then to update her watch or talk to her headpiece, no one these days can walk and talk at the same time . I eat my cereal in peace or what I call peace, Tv tables at 74 sound level, and I mean Tv tables because the walls are filled with ceiling projector beams across the top that show ads and other hologram crap. Besides the walls, the floors are all technical with them changing to sand or grass or water all the time is pretty annoying honestly I hate this house. I put my feet on top of a foot mold that locks on to my foot and forms a show around it. I grab my backpack and leave without saying goodbye and start to walk on the "stone path" we have, and meet the busy city of SteelTech.

The roads, the sidewalks and the "grass" all lit up by lights or technology. The sidewalk making light up ripples everywhere you step, like ripples in the ocean water.It makes me remember when my Grandpa use to take me to the sea shore and we would walk down the shoreline ,burying our feet in the muddy soft sand and seeing who could go deeper in. The waves crashing against our feet and sometimes we even try to jump over them like jump rope. And afterwards he would take me on the boardwalk and by icecream as the sun sets, we stand there and watch nothing to worry about... I snap back to the real world as a car zooms by missing me by two feet. No one cares who you are or what your doing, as long as it doesn't stop there schedule or slow them down they will keep going. I hate crossing the road its impossible cars always moving and when they stop its only because they met their destination or they got into an accident. when the light flicks green for me to walk four cars past by blowing the red light and crashing into three other cars, I laugh and run across the remainder time left before it changes back to green. I look at my watch and see an incoming call from Ry, Ry is my best friend and hes like my brother we been everywhere together. And from what I know we will never be separated.
"HELLO!" he scream at the mic "Is anyone there? Rachel? Is that you or an ugly cat looking at me?"
"Good Morning Ry, and how are you today?" I say back slyly.
"Good, but hey I need to show you something BIG meet my at Hive Blue.
