Chereads / The Lost One / Chapter 2 - The Big Day

Chapter 2 - The Big Day

Jamar wakes up in shock sitting up panting heavily, feeling his heart racing. He looks around at his neat and bright room, sweating heavily in his blue pj's.

Jamar: *starts to calm down* (It's just another dream.)

He gets out of bed feeling a little dizzy and tired, then goes in the bathroom and turns on the shower.

Jamar: (For a few years, these dreams haven't been getting any better, but only worse.) *washes his face* (I wonder what these dreams mean?)

After the shower, he goes back to his room and looks at the time, seeing its 11:45am.

Jamar: (Ah crap! I'm going to be late for the tournament!)

In a hurry, he combs his afro and puts on black trousers, a white shirt saying "UNBEATABLE" and a black jacket with a hoodie. After that, he goes into his mum's room, and sees she isn't there.

Jamar: *Leaves her room and yells* MUM?

*No reply*

Jamar: (She must be out shopping.) *smiles and giggles* (At least she won't be here to stop me.)

He runs to the kitchen to grab some food and then runs out the front door, slamming it. He smiles and looks up at the sun shining brightly on him.

Jamar: *puts a cap on* 10,000 gold, here I come!

He runs into the woods at incredible speed, running past a sign saying "Amani Village". After a few minutes, he sees a cement road.

Jamar: Looks like I'm almost there.

Out of nowhere, a man comes from behind a tree and they bump into each other, causing Jamar to fall on his rear.

Jamar: Ow *rubs his head* watch where you're going.

Man: Oh sorry, I didn't see you coming.

The man lends out his hand and Jamar grabs his hand getting pulled up.

Man: Sorry about that.

Jamar: *sighs* It's okay I forgive you. (How come I didn't hear him coming?)

Man: So, why was you in a rush?

Jamar: Well that's because...

He looks up, noticing a sign with an arrow saying "South Rica Town 2 miles".

Jamar: *Looks back at the man* I just remembered something, got to go.

Man: Wait...

In an instant, Jamar dashes off, leaving the man in shock.

Man: Whoa (He's pretty fast.)

He takes an orb out of his pocket and it glows yellow.

Man: (Hmm, he's not the person I'm looking for. Guess I bumped into the wrong person.)

Another few minutes later, Jamar arrives in the town. He looks at a golden tower and runs towards it.

Jamar: Finally, I've made it! To the tournament of potency.
