The story beginsx1
Wake up...
Wake up...
He opened his eyes in a daze, rubbing his head as he rises and wiping the sleep from his eyes, johnothen grey looks at his alarm clock.
7:45
He looks through it, still heavy with sleep. As the sudden feeling of awareness permeates him,
Now awake he looks at the clock once more directly
7:50
His eyes widen in his realization, his jaw drops slightly, with a surge of urgency and a feeling of despair he sais outloud and i qoute
"Oh fuck dude im gonna be late!"
He jumps up, looking around quickly,
He grabs his school uniform.
jeans, an iron pressed white button up t shirt and a green tie. He slips into the
Apperal and rushes out the door grabbing his bag, not noticing the note left on the kitchen table
"Johnny, ill be late coming home so youll have to get ready on your own. Remember to take your medication
DO NOT FORGET!"
He tares down an allyway,leavimg dust to resettle on the ground behind him. As he runs he quickins his pace, really pushing hard and being rewarded as he does as his feet barely touch the ground before picking back up off it.
He slows only as he approaches the snakes den.
To be perfectly honest, its not a den, but rather, an ally way. And there are no snakes. Only samual berret
And peter norman. Also refered to as, scrubs, creeps, weirdos, freaks, losers, possibly autistic, undesirables and a personal favorite of johnothen's
"The kids darwinism forgot".
Or as their "street" names
Serpent and python
See these kids also go to the same school as johnny. But rather then being admited because of personal reference, money or grades, they were enrolled because of a social advancement program, in an attempt to "get inner city kids off the streets"
So much good thats done seeing as though these two stand around an allyway all day, smoking and toting around a couple of switchblades, still shard from the excessive lack of use.
Where as he would shy from the confrontation on any other day. Johnny for some reason or another felt stronger, faster, more confidant. Like some kind of chain holding him back was finally broken, as if he were set free from an inner prison.
He builds himself up and slowly enters the snakes den.
"Hey pythy look at this fuckin guy"
"Yeah, look at this guy"
"Pythy act like you actually have a fuckin pair"
"This fuckin guy. There happy serpent?"
The two continue back and forth as johnny walks forward, as he is about to pass them a blade touches his throat, he tenses.
"Where you think youre going faggot, theres a toll in the ally"said serpent in a cocky manner
"Hey man put the knife down, hes just a mute kid"
Remarked python.
"Back off"
"Man python get your panties untwisted"
"I said back off"
"Python what the fuck is your deal why are you-" serpent stops abruptly as he sees his friend queitly watching the back and forth, his sight shifts to johnothen.
"I said back OFF" johnny grabs serpents wrist and twists it around, putting himself behind him and pushing him, hard into a couple of fresh trash bags and bins.
He looks at python.
"Hey, you told him to back off and he didnt listen, isnt my buisnass....but you might want to take this, "he throws johnny his switch" i think youll need it "as he points to a very pissed off looking serpent with bits of egg and banana in his hair.
