As he wakes up from his dream, Tyler Rai Crone hears his mother’s voice. “TY, WAKE UP!” she exclaims. In his half-sleep state, he manages to let out a moan sounding like

“idonwunna”. His mother folds her arms as she states “What kinda kid isn’t excited to wake up on their birthday?” “A tired one, mom. Plus I’m 14 now, NOT a kid,” He stated with pride. “Come on, it is 2 in the afternoon,” She pressed. “Alvin and Janet are downstairs waiting to come and celebrate with you,” Her face was covered with concern. “FIIIIIIINNNE..,“, Tyler grunted.

Tyler was tall and ebony, with a slightly threatening stare, but he was mostly harmless. He was a fairly thin boy. Though don’t let his muscle mass or lack thereof fool you, he can hold his own just fine.

“Hey, dude,” Alvin said. “Wassup Alvin. Hey Janet,” Alvin Tyson Monroe and Janet Merlyn Harper were the only people who knew him best. “Hey Typo, sleep well?” she joked. “We’re not in Pre-K anymore, Jany,” Tyler said with a voice full of sarcasm and angst. They met over a decade ago, all of them attended the same preschool. Soon after, they quickly became fast friends.

“Come on Tyler, let’s go, “Janet urges. “Yeah, man,” Alvin added. Even though Tyler wanted to stay at the house and play video games, he knew his friends were taking time out of their day just for him. “Well, I guess it would suck if you guys just left without me,” He said. “Then, LET’S GO!“, Janet yelled. “There’s gonna be an awesome meteor shower tonight,”

You may very well know where this story may go. Though, you do not have all the details. It may seem like a happy tale, but it gets much darker. We haven’t even met all of our starring cast yet.

“You know I had a really weird dream last night,” They all said in unison. “Um, did you guys dream of an alien race collapsing as well?” Tyler asked. “Yeah, that’s weird isn’t it?” Alvin said. “Guess that means we are all best friends huh?” Janet stated, still kinda on edge about it. “No need to worry about it now, let’s go meet up with Natalie and Brice,” she added. Tyler didn’t even know he had a crush on Natalie, though he didn’t even acknowledge it, with all honesty she didn’t know him; to Tyler’s knowledge, that is. But soon, everything was going to change.
