Alex Chase: Beyond The Multiverse

Chapter One: We're Goin' On A Road Trip!

Did you ever wake up on an ordinary day, and find that everything was different? Well, I did. Six years ago, I was just a average girl who felt like something was missing in my life.

Well, okay, maybe I wasn't that average. Most girls don't have skin as pale as Snow White's and blonde hair as long as Rapunzel's. Most girls don't have eyes that seem to change color based on different emotions.

Most girl's aren't considered more beautiful then Nefertiti, Helen Of Troy, Xi Shi, and Freyja combined. And apparently, most girls can't do black-belt karate, jujitsu, taekwondo, kung fu, and gold-medal gymnastics.

But, putting aside all of that, I was pretty normal. And I hated that. It wasn't the fact that I was normal that I hated, it was more the fact that my life was normal. So boring and average. I wanted more.

And I got it. Let my life be a lesson to all of you who are listening to this. If you wish for something hard enough, it will happen. And there will be a lot more downsides then you'd think.

Its been two years since I last talked with my boyfriend and my best friend. It's not their fault. After all, you can't make plans to hang out with someone you don't remember. But the thing is, I have a big problem again.

And unlike the last couple dozen times, they can't help. I have to do this by myself. They've already risked so much for me. And besides, they have that road trip they've wanted to go on for some time now. I'm not going to bring them down with me.

But if I don't figure out how to stop this woman by myself, she's going to bring down the whole Teraverse, and my best friend's with it. . . .

" Ugh, come on! I can do this! I've fought plenty of villains, saved hundreds of thousands of people in more than ten different Multiverse's. There's got to be some way to fix this!" I muttered to myself.

'But this time was different.' A voice in my head whispered. 'This time, I didn't have them to help me. I would have to figure out how to do this myself.' It whispered again. I sighed.

What am I going to do? I thought to myself. Suddenly, "The Voice" interrupted my thoughts.

" Not without them," It whispered. I opened my eyes. I groaned.

" Not again," I muttered to myself. I turned over on my pillow.

" Ah ah, oh oh" I put a pillow over my head to block it out. Trying to get to me through singing? This wasn't some spirit calling out to me. It was my hearts deepest desires manifesting itself as a magical singing voice calling out to me. One of the downsides of a soul filled with magic can heal things to the point of having a human consciousness.

" Ah ah," I pulled the pillow off my head and sat up. I got off the bed. "oh oh oh oh"

" I can hear you, but I won't" I sang back as softly as I could. " Some look for trouble, while others don't," I got off the bed and walked to the windowsill.

I opened the curtains and looked out into the night sky. " There's a thousand reasons I should go about my day" I crossed the room and turned the handle on my door. I opened the door. " And ignore your whispers
Which I wish would go away" I closed it behind me. I turned the corner and started down the stairs.
