QUEST

Ryan plays with Fate

Dedicated to: The_Awesome_Possum for being a awesome friend and person in general, just like her username says!!

Megan looked at Ryan and then yelled,
"Hey!"
"What do you want?!" He shouted.
"Go after her if you love her."
Ryan flung his glasses off and looked at her in the eyes. Megan gave a tiny giggle under her breath. He had the same pretty blue eyes that were deep and pure. He ran his fingers through his hair and then shook his head.
"No. No... NO! God da*n it!" Ryan yelled. He ran his fingers through is dirty blonde hair and through the streak of white.
His fingers stopped as the ran through the white area. He pulled the hair lower and stared at the white as if just seeing it clearly for the first time.
He looked like he just realized he was not the young person he was. As if he realized that he WASNT 18 anymore.
That he DIDNT have all the time in the world.
"What year is it?..." He asked softly.
Megan looked around and saw a huge gleaming white clock tower that said the date and time.
"2108." She whispered. She was surprised but Ryan seemed more surprised.
"2108... Ive been gone too long..." He looked at the rearview mirror and finally seemed to realize that he was 50 something. He studied his wrinkles and everything. The stubble of a beard coming up.
He looked around.
"40 years. Ive lived 40 years here..." He jumped up and grabbed his car keys then chucked them towards Megan.
"take them, Megan! He yelled and then winked.
"Go home. Don't stay here... because you will only be stuck here." He stopped for a second and then smiled,
"I came here looking for trouble. Instead I got a life." A tear streaked down his face.
"I life I want to start over again... I want Arianna in this life. I want all my friends. I want my family..." He stopped.
Megan looked at him and out stretched a hand.
"Come with me. Come back. Start your life over. Do it ALL again."
Ryan shook his head smiling.
"I can't. I came here for fun. I started a life. And now-- Ive been here too long for me to leave. I have set my future in stone. I can't try again. This is what I made of it and now this is all I'll ever achieve. Be better than me and leave. Leave NOW!" Ryan said. He then started running after Arianna not looking back once at the still outstretched hand that had now fallen to Megan's side.
She looked around her heart beating faster than ever. She was scared and confused as she watched the old Ryan running after a mere dream as the train had long left the station with Arianna still on it. Little did Megan know, Ryan would never see either again. Neither Megan or Arianna.
Megan gave a sob as she watched ryan seal his fate forever by not taking her hand. The hand that was empty as she closed her eyes and came back to the present time tears in her eyes.

Kriss studied the three girls,
"You did not do as asked. I saw everything." Kriss then turned towards Ebony.
"You're lucky you have two tough b**ches to help you."
She sighed and then yelled,
"Class dismissed!"
