Chapter 3
Adjusting to life
Jacob curses many times, where was Jacob? He look frantically trying to understand what was this place. He started walking through the crowd of people looking at him and he walked into a cafe.
He got in the line and hoped he had enough money to eat, suddenly a thin white privileged boy wearing a fancy white suit cut him in line. 'Hey what the hell?' He thought to himself. "Hey kid you can't cut in line."
He turned around and said in a pretentious voice. "Who does this present think he is? I'm on my 12th step on my pathway!" Jacob looked at him confused and said. "Well I took a hundred steps to get here, you dont see me cutting in line?"
The pretentious boy laughed at me, "this idiot doesn't know what steps and pathways are!" He cackled at him. Jacob got pissed and said. "Keep talking like that and I'll fuck you up kid!" The boy laughed even more and said. "Dumbasses like you can't even scratch me, so do your best inbred!" Bam! A hook collided with the pretentious boys face and he tumbled back.
"Ow dammit, this r*tard hit me!" Jacob kicked him hard on his stomach and continuously kicking him. Blood coming out of the boy mouth. People wearing blue came in and grabbed Jacob.
They pulled him out of the shop and bring him into the police station, "hey kid where your parents?" 'Kid?' Jacob though looking around. "Me?" Jacob said, the police nodded and Jacob said. "I'm 29." The police officer chuckled, "yea and I'm 22, cut the crap seriously." He said darkly with sarcasm like the last time.
'Is this cop stupid I'm telling the truth.' He look around and Jacob asked for a mirror, the police man throw the mirror his way and Jacob grabbed it. 'Holy shit I look like I'm 15!' Jacob thought, but technically he was actually 29.
"Your right sir, I'm 15" Jacob said admitting to the now real truth. "Where's your parents?" The officer said, Jacob pulled out his ID and gave it to the officer. The cop inspected it and said, "Your joking right? 1799, ha." He said, Jacob was confused he was actually telling the truth this time.
The cop's eyes glowed for a second, Jacob felt a shiver in his spine. "Shit, your actually not lying kid." Jacob was confused, he said he was lying a second ago.
"Well I heard a kid fell through the portal a minute ago, was that you?" The cop looked at him sternly, "yea I guess so?" The cop understood, "unless you've been frozen in time, or resurrected." The cop look at him deeply and said. "What happened before you went through the portal. "
He thought, "a… lake! That was really cold and probably froze me." The officer nodded his head and said. "Well you can leave but you have to pay a fee of 25 Estre. 'Huh?' Jacob thought, he pulled out 2 dollars and gave it to him. The officer looked at it and said. "Dude, this is worth 193 billion Estre!" Jacob was shocked because a of the large number.
He grabbed the coins and looked for a bank, he slammed through the door and shoved through the line. "Here, teller exchange this." The teller Scrutinized the coins and converted it to the amount the officer said.
He went back to the station and gave the officer the 25 Estre. He went to the cafe and looked at the menu, 'what the fuck is a basilisk burger?" He looked at the menu and reached the front of the line. "Hello! What would you like today?" Jacob wanted the burger and ordered it.
Sitting at the table he relaxed his leg and looked outside, many people walked around and entered and exited. All so boring to Jacob, he saw a man with a camouflage putting up posters and no one looking at it.
He grabbed the burger and finished it fast before going outside and grabbing the poster. It said something along the lines of.

'Cool I might join!" He thought and shoved the paper in his suit carefully. He went to a richer area and looked for a house, finally he found a good one, a three story mansion with white bricks for walls and a beautiful garden in the front. He enters the house and asks. "How much is it to buy the house?" He looked at the sellers and they replied. "About 10 Million Estre!" He says to save the house and goes to the bank to get some Estre.
"Hello there sir, what would you like to do!" He took some breaths and said. "I would like to withdraw 10 million Estre!" He said to the teller. "That is a lot of Estre do you even have enough, sir." The teller said, "check an account for Jacob Bliss." The teller pulls up the account and his eyes widen. "Oh wow I ummmm I'll give you a card with 100 million Estre."
Some typing and drawers opening later the teller gives him the card. "Thank you teller." Jacob said already running towards the door. He pulls up to the door and gives them the card. "Here, the money for the house." The couple scans it and gives him the keys. "Thank you for purchasing the house!" They leave for the empty house and leaves him there.
Jacob now living in the mansion, he puts the keys in his pockets and feels the paper, 'oh yea I forgot about this poster!" He walks to the address and looks up at the building, a rusty, old, crumbled house. He slowly enters the room and sees four people. A man, women, women, and a man. All looking extremely strong, the first man wearing a green suit with and looking anxiously around. The first women, wearing a revealing dress and make up, she is looking at the men in the room. The second man wears a grey suit and is in a long daydream. The second women is resting on the edge of the table and is trying to rest. 'Wow what a average room."
