• Lost in an unknown world

    Prologue
    The eyes of the youth lying on the grass opened slowly. One of his eyes was a brilliant bright blue while the other was a dark violet color, almost black. His eyes shot all around, him looking, but seeing nothing, as he sat up slowly. He was so confused. The last thing he remembered was lying sprawled on his bed wishing he could be anywhere other than there.
    “Was my wish somehow granted?” he asked himself out loud in confusion. Suddenly, he became aware of his surroundings. The lawn he was currently sitting on was covered in soft green stuff. “It’s grass…” he must be dreaming. He had only seen grass in the old movies. Only rich people could afford grass these days.
    His eyes were drawn to the open windows which were now casting light onto the dark street. A few curious girls stood at the windows looking down at him with something that appeared to be curiosity. It was then that he noticed that all of the yards were covered in grass.
    Now, he was wondering where he was. Where he had been brought up had been nothing, but steel and concrete. There had never been more than a blade of grass ever. This sudden vast amount of grass mystified him.
    “Where in the world am I?” he asked in a horse whisper and tried to stand up. As soon as he got onto his feet he immediately fell back onto the ground. Well I guess laying here for a little longer couldn’t hurt anything, he thought to himself and closed his eyes. As he drifted off into a state of sleep he felt people hoisting him up and heard quiet mutterings.

    Chapter 1
    When James finally opened his eyes again, he instantly regretted it as sunlight poured into his eyes. He groaned and rolled over, closing his eyes at the same time. Deciding that it was safe to open his eyes, he did so. When his eyes fully opened, he was staring into the eyes of a sleek black cat. Its eyes were pure gold. It was so unexpected that he fell off the bed, landing on his back.
    As he landed, he almost cried out in pain, but managed to just keep it in. His back had been fine before now. Why did it hurt so much now? Tears leaked out of his eyes as he lay there holding his back.
    After sometime, he sat up and propped himself up against the side of the bed and looked around himself. The room itself was completely white. He saw in one corner a bunch of crates stacked, while in another corner there was a bookshelf.
