"Cross get up! It's time for school!" my mom yells to me from downstairs. I open my eyes angrily because I was woken up. I sluggishly slide out of bed and get ready for school. You know, shower, brush my teeth, the usual stuff. Downstairs I get a bowl of cereal for breakfast. "See you when I come back!" I yell to my mom when I leave the house.

It's a basic, normal, boring school day today. Regular basic, normal, boring classes. Regular basic, normal, boring lunch. It's not even lunch. It's slop. Why feed kids this kind of food. It's unsanitary. But I digress. Maybe it wouldn't be so basic, normal, and boring if I had any friends.

I come home and my mom's gone. She's probably still at work or something. "Well, I better get started on my chores." I say to myself as I go to take out the trash. As I am walking to the dumpster I see a huge explosion go off within a few yards away from me. 'What the hell?' I think to myself when I see it happen. Then a body falls into my backyard. "What the hell!?!?" I shout as it lands. It's smoking from the fire of the explosion. Clothes burned along with the man's skin and hair. Then, soon after, a man walks into my backyard with arms flaming. At first I think he's on fire but then I glance at his face. He's completely fine. Then the man throws a fireball my way and I instantly know that the flames aren't hurting him.
