Chapter 1
Jacob's awakening
"3!" They yell at me as my body tense up about the give up. "2!" They yell louder then last time, I was about the give up and just lay down and die but I have something to live for. "1!" My muscle tore and my body tensed up even more, "0!" I get up and sit down, "you did it," my friend said. "Thanks dude!" I drink the water and relax even more. I leave the gym and go home for the night, I walk through my neighbourhood and look around.
My mom lives right in front of my house, my neighbour is my sister, and my dad is living at a different city. My house is the oldest in the neighbourhood, a wooden outside and a clay interior, I recently moved in so I have boxes everywhere. I turn on my shower and wait for it to heat up, I check my calendar, December 20 1799. I can wait for the 1800 hundreds, when 1 minutes pass I hop in the shower.
My body feels better and more chilled, grabbing the soap and rub my hair. After showering I walk to my bed and look in the mirror, I have great stamina and above average strength but I have a slim body, my thin black hair cover my eyes and it sometimes gets in my way for reading. I get in bed and close my eyes.
Dream
I wake up in a forest, but the bright sun and sky are walls? I walk through and look around, something in the empty darkness is staring at me. The chills fall down my spine and I get ready to run. Something rusty pokes out the bush and I get hit, blood rushes through the wound in my abdomen and I collapse to the ground. I look up before I pass out and I see a face, brown hair, clean and smooth skin, and a scar under her chin.
Real life
I jump out my bed and holding my heart, the dream felt so real to me and I felt like I knew her. I get out my bed and go to take a shower, I hop out the shower and get dried for work, I get ready putting on my clothes and going to my car. I drive through the road and I look around, kids throwing snowballs at each other makes me miss my childhood.
Things I missed out on, forced to study for a good job, and trying to get married. Suddenly a car swerved out of the road and hits mine, I get sent into the lake and I break through the ice.
Shit, I can't swim and my body doesn't feel like it's moving. My body warmth has dissipated and I reach my limit and the light goes black.
Narrator POV
As Jacob flys out the car, the thin ice above the lake shatters under Jacob and he sinks in deep, his body weighing him down and his limbs freezing. The other car's driver gets out the car and runs to where Jacob fell and try's to get help. "Someone help me!" He shouts at the top of his lungs, Jacob is too deep for him to swim down and get him. "Someone's in the freezing lake! Help!" No one appears to help and they just let him sink down deeper.
Time passes over for years without anyone noticing Jacob, decades and decades pass and 200 years later. A frozen lake has reappeared and kids are skating above it, a kid shaking his legs and looking down about to fall, "Mommy I see something down there!" He points at something beyond the ice and the mom looks down, "Honey that's just a fish!" The kid believed the mom and continues skating or trying to, not knowing that he just saw someone 224 years old.
Year upon years pass flying through. Until, May 22 2103, Europe has been evacuated because a super meteor has been reported that it will destroy all of Europe and cause the world to dissipate like the dinosaurs only the smart will live. 3, 2, 1! A boom heard around the world, a trail of light dashing across the skies, shockwaves around the right side of the world.
Only a quarter of people lives through the meteor and many more people were replaced by descendants of a massive family. Thousands of year later, Jacob's subconscious awakened, his body's blood was slowly flowing and his heart was slowly pumping, Jacob pushes through the sub-zero water. His legs and arms felt weak, but through sheer will he reach the bottom of the ice layer. He punched the ice, pushed, scratched the ice to be free of this place. He wanted his mother, sister, dad, his friends. All he knew was he wanted to feel there warmth anything but this cold water.
Then crack, a hand then an arm the his head, he let out a loud gasp and regained his breath. He pulled hisself up from the water and on to the ice, warmth slowly and steadily flowed through his body. He got up and took off his vest and squeezed the water out, he throw the vest over his shoulder and walk carefully across the ice lake.
Jacob's POV
A light, feelings of cold, and my body feeling numb. Shit I can't feel anything, can I even remember anything, A car, me flying through the air. Shit I'm still in the water, I try to move my arms and legs to break through the numbness, I slowly rise up to the ice and I pull back my arms to break the ice, again and again and again. Desperately hitting the ice to be free, hell if my sister saw me she would laugh before helping me, but she's not here.
Shatter, creak, release. I push my arm through the broken ice and grab the ice, I pull my head up and gasp for air, I fully pull my buddy up and feel a wave of euphoria pass my body. Coughing water from my lungs and throwing up the ice water. I take off my vest and squeeze the water out of my soaked vest and throw it over my vest, I stand up and look around. Where the fuck am I?
