Fallen Stars

Chapter 53:The Army's Advent and Egypt

Jace-

The football field was filled with people from the school, so we decided to get a hotel room. We're only here to wait until the army of Sharkutt's Shiners arrive.

"Ooh, I cannot wait!" I say, all giddily. I'm punching at the air while Mary rolls her eyes. Today I am going to be the destruction of Sharkutt. Once he sees my good-looking face, he better turn and run, otherwise I'm going to send my knives into his heart.

Kyle shares the same mood as me, he's smiling with excitement. I start doing push-ups then sit-ups. My shirt is discarded on the desk, and as I'n doing sit-ups, I can't help but admire my eight-pack abs.

"Enjoying the show?" I ask Mary, who glanced at my abs.

"No." She quickly says, turning back to the Television. I laugh and continue my workout. As I'm doing my exercises, I think about my dad and how I was captured. The others don't know about my past, so now will we a good time to tell them.

"I was born a Shiner," I begin, ceasing my exercises. Mary, Austin, Lucy, and Harry's heads turn to face me."My dad named Joe was a Shiner. My dad always told me my mom abandoned me and him, but I knew he just didn't want to tell me the Nitaves murdered her. I was four at the time."

"Sorry about your mom." Mary tells me, I thank her and continue my story.

"We were living in Maine at the time, mom just never came home. After that, my dad got really depressed and he was sent to a mental hospital. I was thrown into foster care, where my new foster parents were total assholes. They loved to torture me mentally and sometimes physically," I explain. By now, everyone is listening to me."My foster siblings bullied me constantly, so I fought them back. One day my foster brother got me so angry, so I punched him in his face. My foster parents were pissed off when they found out, then they beat me and locked me in the basement. I banged on the door so hard that it snapped in half. My foster parents sent me to live with my foster dad's father. He was nice and polite, unlike his son's family. On my fifth birthday, he went to the store to buy me presents. That's when the Nitaves got to him. The foster family took me in, again. They spit on me and sometimes got their big ass dogs to scare me, one time they let the biggest dog loose and I was forced to run away from him until he got tired. I was angry and fed-up with my foster family one day. The foster dad was going to spank me with his belt, but I teleported out of the way. He said that I was the spawn of Satan, so he took me to his church where I was baptized. I accidentally opened my mouth in the tub of water, that was when I realized I could breathe underwater. The next day, my foster father apologized for his cruelty to me. He hugged me and tucked me in bed. When I woke up, there were Nitaves everywhere. They killed my foster family and took me to one of their bases. They tried to make me mean with their pills. They put the pills in a cup of water and told me to drink. I threw the cup at the wall. The Nitaves started punching me and beating me after that. Then I duplicated myself and took their guns. I was able to shoot the Nitaves and escape the base without any injuries. With nowhere to go, I lived on the streets of Cleveland for a few days. One day a cop saw me all stinking and starving outside a building. He took me to a police station and asked me who my father was. I told him and he was able to find the mental hospital my dad was staying at. I was reunited with my dad after that. We lived in a apartment in the city of Milwaukee. We lived there until I was fourteen-two years ago. Anyways, we moved to New York after that, in a small city. In New York, when I turned sixteen, I met this hot girl at school. Her name was Ashley. She had a crush on me, well, I thought she did. She gave me her phone number one day at school. On a Friday, I arranged a date with her. She accepted it and when Friday came, I met her at the Planetarium. Ashley kept checking her phone during the date. We were leaving the Planetarium when the Nitaves showed up. I managed to kill a few, but on of them knocked me out by hitting my head with the butt of their gun. I woke up in a prison cell at the Nitave base in Michigan. Ashley and a Nitave warrior were standing inside my cell. The Nitave told me how Ashley was just using me to save her hostage mom from the Nitaves. Then I was forced to watch the Nitaves stuff Ashley and her mom in a large room. There was a observatory window that we looked through. The next thing I know, a door opens and a Jaygrill enters the room. They Jaygrill killed Ashley and her mom. Before Ashley was killed, she told me how sorry she was and that she actually did have a crush on me. A few days later, my dad was captured by the Nitaves and locked inside the same cell as me. During our imprisonment, me and my dad exercised every day. One day I heard Nitaves screaming outside the cell door. The doors opened and that's how I met Alan and a few others who some of you don't know. And that's my story."
