Kendricks parents didn't care about these regulations, they kept him in a dark room inside the basement, hoping he would receive a strong ability, related to light or dark. They didn't get what they hoped for. His constant want, to escape the basement and change his fate created another ability. The day he awakened was still clear in his mind.
Pov Kendrick:
'I don't even know if it's day or night, it's always so damn dark, I wish I was at another place, a beach, I heard my parent's talk about it, water in abduance, the sun shining down on me and sand trickling down my feet.'
Dustparticles, illuminated by the few rays of light shining through the bars on my window and descending down, turned to little fishswarms dancing around I the water.
Wrinkling my toes and imagining how it would feel to walk on sand, sink in into the warm ground, I waddled around the basement. My Imagination wasn't enough, the cold concrete floor, snapping me out of my daydreams.
I knew I was slowly turning insane, but I had nothing to do, I stopped trying to force the door open, or breaking the flap, where my food was passed through, it had no use.
Trying to fantasise about the feeling of sand trickling through my toes again, I closed my eyes and bore them into the ground, which surprisingly was loose and warm.
Ripping my eyes open I was amazed at the scenery playing before my eyes 'the sky is so blue, the colors so vibrant,is this what a beach looks like? I fucking know I'm not dreaming because I don't even know what a beach really looks, or feels like, the sea looks beautiful, wow, the while forming, everytime they crash onto the sand and the way the color changes and gets darker the deeper it gets is just beautiful, fuck my parents by the way, I'm free'.
I took some steps back, forgetting I had clothes on and ran like a madman to the shore, then jumped and landed hard onto the water, a belly flop, one would call it.
Ater some seconds of wild euphoria I remembered 'damn I can't swim', swinging wildy with my legs I tried to stay on top of the water, but it didn't help, I started to scream for help, my vision got blurry, then a strong hand grabbed me and my consciousness started to fade away.
30 seconds time skip(ik short)
coughing I resigned consciousness
"cough cough, fuck I forgot I couldn't swim cough"
"bro why did you jump into that four metres deep water then, someone shit in your brains?"
hearing the unfamiliar voice I jolted around, looking into the most punchable face ever, blonde hair, kept short in a buzzcut, blue, way too prideful eyes and a mole under his left eye, I ain't gay or anything, but he looked too good, I wanted to punch him and break his damn straight nose.
"who the fuck are you, to tell me that?" I retorted, living in a basement didn't do my social skills any good, though I hoped they'd improve.
"I was the one who just rescued your life dumbass, no thanks nothing? Just cursing at your saviour? Atleast buy me a beer, but a good one, not some budlight shit, something like diebels."
Confused I stammered "thanks for saving me, b but what is beer and how did you see me?"
His face scrunched up and he looked confused at me "First of all, I could rescue you because of my ability, second of all, how in the name of the entities do you nor know what beer is, how do you not know of the sixth best thing earth was ever blessed with?"
"Sorry but I pretty much lived under a rock till now, so I don't really have any idea what exists and what not, also what are the other five things, that are better than beer?"
" Well number 5 is ofcourse vodka and jägi, number four is me, number three is the abilitys the entities have blessed us with, number two is weed and number one is the opportunity, to introduce you to the real way to have fun, PARTY"
putting his hand around my wrist he yanked me to my feet nearly dislocating my shoulder and starting to pick up speed he looked back,
'come on you fucktard melissas houseparty started two hours ago, which means it really starts now, let's go, I don't want to arrive when all the 40% alcohol drinks and more, have run out and remember don't accept shiny and colourful pills, they're bad for you, no mixing weed and alcohol if you're not experienced, let's have FUUUUN."
I was confused as hell, but nonetheless I followed him, because I kinda didn't like him, bit he also seemed fun.
That's how I met my best friend, Yoshi, I call him that, his real name is joshua and he's a nuisance, he never changed, but thankfully stayed away from the shiny and colorful.
