        Daniel Flafe layed  in his soft bed cozy until his alarm clock rang as it did everyday at 7:30. Daniel popped out of his rest and began his day. Its not just a day, or the day, or his day, it was his birthday. In the dark of the moon on the sixth of June, he came into existence. As Daniel walked to his sofa in the living whilst sipping favorite coffee, his doorbell rang. Daniel turned towards the door and was able to turn the handle slightly until a figure barged in. It was Daniel's long time friend, Pat Mcneil.

        " How does it feel to be forty-four and have no wife or children?" Pat joyfully stated.

        " The same I have felt every other day?" Daniel questioned.

        " Alright I'll restate it:  How does it feel to know that you lack a human being that deducts your taxes?" Pat restated.

"But Pat, rich people don't pay taxes!" Daniel laughed.

" Of course!" Pat chuckled.

"Besides that, I have a present for my dearest friend"

"Knowing you it is a fifty dollar gift card to a third-rate Italian restaurant," Daniel concluded.

Pat froze."That and a brand new jetski!"

"Well, if brand new means a five year old jetski purchased from a scary-looking 'movie director' of the internet, "

"Great, a strange anonymous director gives me a present, odds are it's- it's-. Alright, thank you." Daniel shrugged.

" You are getting over your paranoia of random objects every passing day!" Pat sniggered.

" Like a liberal gets over his mental illness!" Daniel spontaneuosly responded with.

" Ha! Anyways, try it out! It's a beautiful day out for a man in his mid-life crisis to jetski and not take another archery class!... oh! Jetski is by the docks. I left the keys there," Pat said as he walked out of the door.

" That bow training will be useful for a zombie apocalypse!" Daniel yelled.

"Sure," Pat laughed.

        Daniel mumbled to himself after Pat left as he flopped onto his couch to watch his recorded shows. In his mind, he attempted to conjure a reason not to go jetskiing. After watching the first act of "Doggy Do" which was a pug on a unicycle and realizing a dog talent competition was a dumb idea, he eventually went jetskiing... after he took extra precautions by wearing a scuba suit. Daniel was embarassed by looking like a buffoon prancing down the docks in a bulky scuba suit. He came to a jetski with the keys in the ignition.

" Well, this must be it," Daniel said as he slowly approached the jetski.

        He stored his supplies in the very small storage space and began to jetski. He stayed close to the shore due to irrational fears. Daniel thought it alright. The wind blowing past his ears was enjoyable but he seeked more entertainment which was odd of him. After awhile, he approached Hawaii's famous spitting caves where hot water and steam is shot out due to Hawaii's magma pools.

        "Alright, be careful, Daniel- be careful," Daniel reminded himself as he slowly decelerated.

The sun began to blind Daniels eyes swerved him towards a spitting cave.

"No, get out of my way ,Nature!" Daniel commanded an inanimate object.

A cloud of steam engulfed Daniel as he shut his eyes to brace for impact and the world went to black.
