Mel Story- Against the World

That Day Part 1

I woke up to a freezing breeze this morning.  It seemed that I forgot to close my window last night. I slowly got up from the creaky floor. I'm very light so I didn't hear anything as I walked to the window. As I closed it, I looked in the direction of the sun. Judging by where it was, I could tell that the time was around 9:00 a.m. I had a very good view of the village down below. Suddenly, I heard a knock at the door that snapped me out of my trance.

"Noame, can I come in?"  asked the voice. It was my sister.

"Yes." I responded. My voice sounded almost like a whisper. I hope she heard me. Turns out she did. As she came in I noticed that she was carrying  a tray with food on it. She must've had sneaked it up here.

"I-I got you some breakfast." her voice was shy and felled with hope. She placed the tray on the floor. I turned around and sat next to the tray. There was a glass of orange juice and bread. I grabbed the bread and toke a bite out of it. Our ears pricked up. We heard a voice coming from downstairs. It was that old witch- I mean our mom. She was calling for Ana to hurry up or she'll be late for the bus. Ana waited for me to be done eating, took the tray, and left the room. I stood up and walking to the window. I sat near it. I saw my older brother, Crush, opening the gate. I saw my other stupid older brother, Sib, tripping on his tail.

"Now that I think about it, I'm kinda glad that I have no name. Everyone calls me Noame anyway." I thought to myself. When my siblings were finally gone from my sight, I  decided to walk to that old dresser that was probably made in the 1950s. What interested me though was the item on top of the dresser. I climbed it and grabbed the item. The item turn out to be a map. I unrolled it. It was actually a map of all Mobius. I scanned the map to locate where my village was, but it didn't seem to be on it.

"Huh? That's strange." I quietly talked to myself. I scanned it some more and found I said to myself disappointed. She had also told me that a blue hedgehog named Sonic used the emeralds to save all of Mobius. I looked around the map some more looking at minor details. A horrible sound breaks the silence.

"It seems like I'm hungry." I thought.
