"Mom, to celebrate your birthday at home tonight, I bought your favorite strawberry cake." Sam said to his mother while sitting at the dining table having breakfast.
Mom smiled softly: "Okay, then I will come back from get off work early tonight and prepare a sumptuous dinner. Do you want steak or roast lamb?"
Sam has lived with his mother since he was a child. His father passed away when he was young. Coming from a poor family, he decided to leave school midway and start a working career after finishing elementary school. After hard work, he is now eighteen years old and has some savings, although not huge.
"Mom, I'll prepare dinner this afternoon. Don't worry, I'll give you a surprise." Sam said mysteriously.
"Okay, Sam has grown up, and now I'll let you take on the responsibility of being a parent. I'll leave it to you tonight. Mom has to go to work now." After her mother finished speaking, she stood up, kissed Sam on the forehead, and then her walked towards the door with a happy smile on his face.
"Happy birthday, may you have a wonderful day, Mom," Sam said while standing in front of the door.
"Thank you, son, goodbye." Mom went to work happily.
Since Sam has taken leave early, he can relax himself today. He enjoyed spending a little more time in bed before heading off to go shopping to get home ingredients for dinner.
After lying on the bed for a while, he fell into a deep sleep.

Sam heard a voice in his sleep: "Hey, hey, wake up."
When Sam felt his body shaking, he immediately realized that the man seemed to be trying to wake him. He woke up immediately and found that it was a stranger's voice. "Who are you? How did you get in?" Sam backed away in fear.
Sam was smiled contemptuously by a wrinkled, bald man: "Hey brother, this is my spot. You must be a new member, right?"
Sam is confused, who is the new member? He gradually came to his senses and looked around. He looked at this strange place in surprise. There was no sunlight and there was fog all around. He felt as if he were in the mountains. In front of us are antique buildings and roads paved with big stones, just like those often seen in movies.
A man happened to pass by him, threw a coin in front of him, and then the man left. When he saw a coin clinking on the ground, Sam began to wonder if he had been mistaken for a homeless person... then he hurriedly got up and left the place quickly.
The homeless man immediately picked up the coins that fell on the ground, frowned and said, "This man probably has a psychological problem. He doesn't even want money?"
Sam felt confused as he walked. He is obviously taking a nap, isn't he still fully awake? He pinched his thigh, feeling the pain. Could it be that he... traveled through time? Sam raised his head and looked at the surrounding scene carefully. He is now walking on a wide stone road with some ancient shops on both sides, such as bars, restaurants, bakeries, tailor shops, weapons shops, etc. These shops were different from the world he was familiar with, closer to ancient times, but there were some subtle changes that could not be clearly pointed out.
Sam felt at a loss, unsure of where to go and how to get back. He had promised that he would celebrate his birthday with his mother. If he disappeared, her mother would be very sad and disappointed; leaving her alone to live like this made him full of anxiety and uneasiness.
"I must find a way back! I will find a way!" Sam decided to try to find a way home, and now he wanted to know where this place was.
Sam came to the bakery and asked a girl inside: "Hello, where is this place?"
The girl looked at him strangely: "This is Happy Town. Where are you from? Where are you going? Can I help you?"
Sam replied: "It turns out this is called Happy Town. It doesn't matter anymore. Thank you for your help." Sam didn't know how to tell her that he had traveled through time. If he told her, would she call the police? Sam left the bakery in a hurry.
Sam suddenly remembered that someone had just given him a coin. Although he didn't know its value, he thought it was better than nothing. He quickly returned to where the beggar was.
"Where's the man? I'm sure it's here, but why is he missing?" He sat on a stone pier by the roadside in disappointment.
As he plans to find a job, he is considering accommodation options. The most important thing now is to stabilize his emotions so that he can find his way home. He couldn't make his mother sad. At the same time, while he was thinking, he heard a girl's cry for help coming from the alley next to him: "Help, don't come close. Can someone come and save me?" The voice was urgent and urgent. Sam immediately felt nervous. He's not bad-hearted, but he's still a little timid. He found a stick and walked quickly and nervously into the alley.
As he got closer, he heard a growling sound similar to that of a dog. He held the stick and waved it quickly in front of him, blocking the woman's way to protect her from... the wolf? Sam thought to himself, isn't this the sound of a dog barking? His hands began to shake.
"Don't worry, everything will be fine as long as I'm here." Sam didn't know whether he was telling himself or the woman. He turned his head and looked at her. She was extremely beautiful. Although the light was dim, her figure was attractive. Charming and colorful. She had thick black hair and tears in her eyes, making her look pitiful.
Sam came to his senses and decided to save the beautiful woman heroically and not show weakness in front of the beautiful woman. He held the stick tightly and instantly smashed it towards the wolf standing aside.
Bang!
The wolf was unprepared and was hit in the head with a stick by Sam. He is a worker on the construction site and has a very strong arm. He immediately threw the stick again and hit the other wolf on the head. The wolf quickly avoided the danger of being shot in the head, but was hit in the neck and howled in pain. Of the three wolves, one was dead and one was injured, and the remaining one escaped quickly. Sam hit the injured wolf again, killing it.
The girl quickly came forward and asked, "Are you okay? Have you been bitten?"
Sam puffed up his chest and said, "It's okay, it's just a few wolf cubs, it doesn't matter. What about you? Are you okay?"
"I'm fine, thank you." She smiled shyly, then stretched out her hand: "My name is Tisana."
Sam's heartbeat was racing. He had never shaken a girl's hand and had never had a female companion. He felt that he had little experience and was a little inferior. He gently held Tisana's hand, feeling soft and warm.
Tisana squeezed Sam's hand with admiration and smiled again: "Thanks to you just now. If you hadn't appeared, I would have become food for wolves."
She smiled and winked at Sam: "You haven't told me your name yet."
Sam was a little shy, he said: "My name is Sam, haha." and scratched his head.
Tisana is a shy girl with a gentle personality. She had a wish when she was a child, that is, if one day she encounters danger and a prince charming appears, she will definitely marry him, because this is the dream of many girls when they were young. But today Sam showed up and he saved her, and he was very handsome and looked clean. Tisana began to admire Sam a little, thinking that he was very brave and remained calm when facing so many wolves.
Tisana didn't let go, blushing slightly. She gently held Sam's hand and said with some embarrassment: "My home is not far from here, can you walk home with me? I'm afraid those wolves will appear again."
Sam felt his heart beat faster, and happiness came so suddenly. Just when he was about to speak, he suddenly heard a harsh voice asking: "Is it the two of them?"
Sam looked back and saw a tall figure standing at the intersection. His appearance was unclear due to the backlight. He walked towards him slowly, followed by a wolf.
"That wolf? It actually brought a helper? It's such a smart wolf. Could this be its master?" Sam was a little nervous inside, but looked calm on the outside.
"Are you here to avenge them?" Sam's expression looked disdainful, but in fact his heart was beating rapidly and was about to stop.
Tisana was stunned to see the extremely brave and calm appearance of her perfect prince. She looked at her perfect prince with admiration.
Sam picked up the stick that had just fallen to the ground: "Come o..."
The other person's figure flashed, and before Sam could finish speaking, the other person was already in front of Sam, and directly pierced Sam's body with one hand, making an abrupt "piercing" sound in the quiet night.
Sam stared blankly at the hand on his chest, "What's going on? Am I going to die? I haven't gone home to celebrate my mother's birthday, how could I, how could I die?" His head started to feel dizzy. He was groggy and felt like he was about to fall asleep.
The man slowly released his hand from Sam's chest, and it was only then that Tisana realized what was happening. She yelled in horror, "Saaaaammm!!!!" Her voice echoed in the empty space.
The man suddenly frowned and turned to look at the intersection. His body gradually grew in size, his clothes were torn, and his muzzle gradually became pointed and long, like a standing wolf, but larger. He seemed to be aware of the danger, his expression alert.
Suddenly, a woman appeared at the intersection. She seemed to be teleporting and said coldly: "You dare to break into our territory and kill people. I think you are tired of living." As soon as she finished speaking, there was a bang and the werewolf was smashed to pieces with a palm. The woman stood where the werewolf had stood a moment ago, with pieces of flesh and blood scattered on the ground.
"What is that? Super power? Supernatural power? Is that person just now a werewolf? Which world did I come to? I also want to become so powerful, and I also want to protect Tisana. I haven't been in love yet, what a pity. I'm going to die like this." Sam said in his heart, then his hands dropped weakly, he slowly closed his eyes, and his body fell backwards.
"Noooo! Sammmm!!!!" Tisana cried bitterly, holding onto her Prince Charming. This was the first time she liked a boy.
Sam died just like that...
