I sit here wishing for another part of my life back. I wish for the time where I wouldn't have to worry about never-ending problems. This is only the beginning of the long, slow process we call life. Something as troubling like moving has proven its easy capable of leaving a dent in my life. I always saw the world as another life. The sun waking up and going to sleep, or the infinite number of cars passing down the freeway like time. For some time it has helped me live a smoother life. But I see now that things like trees or cars don't live a smooth life either. Cars will occasionally crash, and trees will someday fall. This is completely inevitable and there is absolutely nothing I am able to do. I'm only a 15-year-old boy who can't move past something so small, so how can he challenge something so vast? The world isn't always filled with cruel, and sad moments. I need to be reminded of the beauties the world holds. The cars hold people that will go reunite with families, or tree that will provide for the living. The Earth also contains moments in which, us, the living, won't forget. Things like your first kiss, friends, family are all something that will keep you sane. I sit here still wishing for the past, but also wishing for the future.

E28 held the entire world within his orange ethereal glowing hands. To most people, being twenty-four years old for all eternity, sounds like a pretty sweet deal. No elderly body aches, your sex drive remains on 100%, and you'll forever be in the prime of your life. Well, in their quest for scientific breakthroughs, our brilliant, overachieving ancestors unknowingly rewrote the entire genetic playbook for our bloodline-long before I was even conceived. By running experiments on themselves, they inadvertently spliced and hardcoded their DNA with something not even they fully understood. The result? Earl Williams the 28th. Born with a delightful grab bag of 5th-dimensional (5D) abilities, including, but not limited to, immortality. And I know what you're thinking. 'Wow! Immortality? That's incredible!' Well, let's see if you feel the same way after falling in love with your soulmate, watching them grow old and die, while you just keep on, existing. Turns out, eternal youth isn't all it's cracked up to be. In fact, it can be less of a gift, and more of a life sentence. Just after Earl's 400th birthday he discovered his 5th dimensional abilities could take him pretty far; literally. As in intergalactic travel. Over time he met other interdimensional beings. Such as Draco, a powerful 4D being who motioned for the ICU to immediately annihilate all of humanity, in order to give Earth time to rebuild its natural resources. Initially, the Intergalactic Chamber of the Universe granted Draco permission to follow through with his murderous plan. However, Earl stepped in and pleaded for humanity's relocation instead of their annihilation. You see Earl himself was earth born. Only as a teenager, did he discover his 5D abilities. He saw the progress humanity had been making. He knew they had learned from their past environmental failures. In his opinion, the people of Earth didn't have to die. All they needed was a new start on a different planet.
