The next day Brawly woke up, and promised him something which he didn’t know was going to change his life before. He said to himself, that he would start focusing on his studies, mind his language and most importantly, fix his behavior. He would do this at least until he has everything under control. And above all, he will be optimistic.

One week passed, and results of his promise were worth the hassle of keeping control over himself. His injury healed completely, and his marks significantly improved. Suddenly, he realized how big of an impact a ray of hope could have on one’s life. Everything had started turning better. People started respecting him, he started acting humble. He felt as if he had just seen all the negativity disappear. He was in the right direction now. He now felt that he could do anything. His dad would have definitely been proud of him. He had risen above his past self. Even though this sounds fake, it is never the wrong time to turn your life around.
Brawly woke up the next day, ready for a fresh new start. He got out of bed, dressed up in his school uniform and leapt out of his home and ran straight into the bus. The school day went as usual, with nothing much worthy of discussion. He came home, ate his food, and got back to work, as he had a lot of homework with a test the next day. This task wasn’t much tedious to him, as he had been studying regularly since the past week. He finished studying pretty early, so much so, he even had an hour to go outside and play. The only reason why he resisted going outside was that he didn’t want to disturb his friends who also were studying for the test. So, he lay bored in his bed, bored, reading a comic.
His room was on the first floor of his house. Even though it was a bit small,, he still loved it; and why wouldn’t he? It had accompanied him since birth. He had experienced every emotion in this room. There was a brown cupboard besides the door and a bed with a blue blanket opposite to it. The blue walls were almost hidden with various posters of cricket, video games and comics. On the roof was an old fan, which was old, but very efficient. It was his only partner during the summer. On the left wall was a window and bookshelves, along with a study table, which almost always had a pile of books on it, in front of it. On the right was the door to his room and a box which had all of his sports equipment.

It had been sometime, when something happened which totally caught him off-guard. He heard a weird sound from outside, which sounded almost like a police siren. He opened his window and looked outside. He looked left, right and even down. He found nothing, but that was until he looked above; he saw a red light, which when upon getting closer, revealed it to be an unidentified flying object (U.F.O). It was aiming right for his window. He was too shocked to give a reaction. He ran towards his room’s door, astonished, as an instant reflex. A weird wolf-like robot entered out of the U.F.O. Before Brawly could question anything the robot started speaking-

Before Brawly had the chance to speak, the robot spoke again-

I will Be heRe to RecRUIT yoU tOMMOR-“

Suddenly as the robot spoke, it fell to the ground and disappeared into thin air along with its vehicle. Someone else had shot it into oblivion. The figure that had shot it was jumping on rooftops to reach Brawly. But before he could process what was going on , the shady figure entered his room and asked him if he had any questions before putting down its black cloak which it was using to hide itself. Little did the figure know that he was going to drown into an ocean of a billion questions….
