Judul Cerita : Universal LeakChapter 1 : Where it all started

It was a normal day after school until something unnatural happened. My name is Aiden and things were about to change to my normal happy life. I am at high school 2nd grade and had lots of friends! and also im the 2nd top student, not to brag heh. it was perfect. I had a big sibling that was nice, and a family thats okay i guess- anyways. im just stuck here in my happy single life with my bestfriends, everyday is an adventure for us. now its lunch time and im sitting here chatting with my friend group about our day and stuff. "Chemistry was fun, theres gonna be in-pairs project! hehe spoiler allert!!" said Sara. "you're supposed to say spoiler allert first, and i hate spoillers Sara!" Mira pouted. "Well for me, spoiler allert, Biology class has a hard quiz that randomly came.." Mira continued. "OH NOO- well thanks for the info! i now have time to learn" Niko said with a sad tone. everyone laughed and continued to chat, but time passes and lunch time is over. "Hmm aight! i gotta go to history class now, see you guys." I said while waving towards my pals. I walk in the hallways while humming a song by the artist AJR, they’re songs are nice. Walk into the history class and behold I am the 2nd kid who made it here. There’s another student who is staring at me, I never saw this student before. “hmm hey- may I ask on what’s your name?” I asked. “O-oh yeah! My name is Zach,” He smiled a little. “Wanna be friends?” Zach asked me, “Well I would love to, Zach.” I answered. “lovely! Oh- what could your name be?” Zach asked again, sheesh. “My name is Aiden, but you can call me any nickname you can think of I guess,.” I muttered a bit at the end. “Oh aiden! A nice name, I’m gonna call you Ai” A grin appeared at his face, nice. More students finally appeared and class started. Great. [ Page 1 ]

“Listen up class! Today we’re going to be in groups of 4! Hurry and choose your team mates.” Ms. Keisha said with a happy tone, wonder what’s gonna happen haha. I’m just sitting on my chair until someone actually interacts with me, and I’m guessing the first person would be- “Ai! Wanna be in the same team as me?” Zach said, and I’m correct. “Sure.” I answered, we searched for 2 more people together. “Hey Aiden! Lets be team mates!” Marina said as she clinged on me. “Oh, and you to Zach.” She continued, “Alright then we just need 1 more person.” I exclaimed. “Well you’re lucky since I’m that one person you’re searching for hehe!” Alison answered to me. Alison, 4th top student, and is really,,, annoying, but whatever. “Okay, we have a full team now.” Zach said proudly. Ms. Keisha pulled out 5 pieces of paper that are color coded. “Now class since everyone is done finding their team mates, we’re going to do a group project and everyone must write a paragraph about a country’s history, and please decorate them as much as you like!” Ms. Keisha soon announced. Amazing right- “And everyone will do it tomorrow, since the bell is already ringing.” Ms. Keisha continued to say. Everyone was excited and energetic, minus me haha- I feel a not so pleasant mood right now. I walk out of class to see Zach waiting for me outside, “Whats up?” I asked him. “Oh- well I want to give you something because you wanted to be my friend!” Zach said with a bright smile. “m thank you, what is it?” I asked again, he gave it to me and it’s a.. necklace. “Do you like it? The jewel is purple!” He said with a worried tone. “Yeah! It’s really pretty, thanks.” I greeted him as I then walked through the hallways towards the school gates. Like usual, my friends were waiting for me. “Aiden! Hey! You’re still gonna hang with us at the park right?” Via asked me while waving to me. “Ofcourse I am, I have nothing to do anyways heh” I scoffed while answering. “Alright alright! Lets go!” Niko said while running away out of the school. We all just chased after him while having fun yeah, “Niko wait up! My legs are hurting here you know!!” Cloe screamed with a weary expression. [Page 2]

“Okay, but we’re already here haha” Via exclaimed while bouncing up and down. “And I bought soda already, amazing right? Im so speedy!” Niko said with a smirk on his face. We all laughed and then took a walk around the park while chatting and enjoying the soda Niko bought. “Awh, I got a call from my mom and I gotta go,..” Cloe said all droopy and stuff. “That’s okay! I gotta go to,.” Niko said with a sigh at the end. “Oh then it’s just me and Via, you two can go do your own things, it’s okay we don’t mind.” I answered to the both of them. They both nodded and parted ways, now its just me and Via. “So--- you wanna play chase?” Via asked me with a sly expression. “Sure! I bet I can catch you before you know it.” I said. Challenge accepted. Via ran as fast as she could. We were having fun until I stopped chasing and noticed that some part of the grass had a huge scratch was glowing. "Hey! Aiden whats up? why did you stop?" asked Via. "Look at the grass, i think theres something wrong with it-" I said. Via was confused as when she looked there, "I think its just your imagination buddy, theres literally nothing there!" Via exclaimed. only the word "oh." slipt out of my mouth. weird, I really thought there was something there I swear. We then eventually parted as the day gets darker. I went home and greeted my family as I went straight to my bedroom. I looked into the mirror and sighed, I’m tired. “Let’s have a nap me” I said to myself. Blank, my dream was just a void. It’s weird since I usually have cool dreams in my naps. I walk around in the dream until I jolted up- it’s already 8 pm. "good morning dinner!!" I laughed and ran downstairs to see whats dinner but no one was there, not a single soul, "hey- where are you guys? its dinner time isnt it" I said while turning around to find empty-ness. I then noticed again a HUGE scratch on the wall that is opened and as well glowy, like a mini-milkyway. "Alright i had enough of you!! I literally just want to eat!" I screamed as I ran into the wall with no sign of fear. [Page 3] At the moment it was quiet until- I felt wind in my hair. I slowly opened my eyes to see that I’m just falling from the sky. "welp im screwed-" I said as I get ready for impact. But I didn’t hit the ground, which is really-really weird. I open my eyes again just to see the grass infront of my face, but something is holding me from falling. “Are you okay?” I look to my right side to see a person right next to me. “A-“ I wanted to scream but fell. “ugh..” I frowned while attempting to get up. “oh im sorry! Personal space velvet.. when will you learn!” Velvet? Said as he helped me get up. “Uh- so you’re velvet?” I asked while sitting down. “yeah! The one and only velvet is here!” He smiled, “Oh and I just saw you falling from the sky, what a random way of starting the day!” Velvet continued as he chuckled. “yeah. Random. Very random.” I grunted as I said that. “VELVETTT YOU LEFT ME BEHIND! WE’RE SUPPOSED TO GO TO THE CAFÉ!!!” someone that looked androgynous yelled at velvet. “and who is that-?” that someone asked. Oh this is gonna be long. [ Page 4 ] (End of chapter 1)
