It was a bright summer morning, perfect really it was just one of those days you couldn't help but go out and do something. This was not to say I wanted to be woken up early but that was one wish I wasn't going to get. Because there was a knock on my bedroom door followed by mom saying, "Jacob, if you don't get up soon you're going to be tired and late for your game today". As soon as she said that I shot up in my bed as I just now remembered I had a basketball game this morning "alright mom I will be out in a minute". I got out of bed and put on some shorts and a plain whit shirt then opened the door to my mom standing there with a smile. She looked at me and said "so did you sleep well" to which my reply was "well it was great until I was woken up" "I am just doing my job" was her reply "now go get some breakfast". After I ate I was ready it was going to be our first game and was I determined it wasn't going to be a loss.
Today was definitely a good day we had won our first game and to celebrate my parents to me out for a family pick -nick out in the park. I was so happy we won that I felt like nothing could ruin today and that I was on top of the world. It also helped that I was nine and had so much energy and it would be a very long time until l I would sit down and rest. When we got to the park we set up in some shade and me and my dad started to pass a football for a while after a while my dad stopped and said "come on lets go get something to eat its 4:00 PM and you only ate a small breakfast". After almost an hour later my mom, dad, and I started a game of tag and some other games. We did that for a couple of hours and my dad said "alright I think its time to pack up and go home". We had stayed at the park for well over Five hours and it was now 9:00 PM. It was dark enough to see the stars in the sky and I had a idea "hey mom and dad can we stay and just watch the stars its a beautiful night". As I said this I gave them the biggest puppy dog eyes I could. They looked at each other and as one said "ok" and at that we set the blanket back down sat on it and just watched the stars, "ha it works every time".
We had sat there and watched the stars for well over an hour I even brought my iPod and started to listen to some music. By 10:30 PM it was time to head home. As we were walking out of the park my mom took the time to remind me for the hundredth time to stay right beside them when crossing the streets on the way to our house. After about 30 minutes of walking we finally could see the house just one more street to cross and we would be home and end the night with some well needed rest. before we crossed the street I had noticed that one of my shoelaces was untied but I ignored it due to the fact I wanted nothing more then to jump in my bed and sleep. As we started to cross I was so lost in thought about sleeping I wasn't watching where I was going and I tripped right in the middle of the street but my parents didn't notice and walked to the other side before looking back. When they looked back and saw me getting up to say they freaked out would be an understatement but they calmed down when they saw me getting up. I was just happy it was late and there aren't a lot of cars on the streets and as i got to my feet I heard a noise. It sounded like a truck "wait that sounds like a truck" I saw the lights round the curve in the road then I felt metal touch my skin and the world just went dark.
As I awoke the first thing I noticed was I had a huge headache man it was the worst headache I have ever had and I once was hit in the head with a metal baseball bat. With that headache I didn't even move I just laid there for a few minutes and let it die down and after a few minutes it did. the second thing I noticed was that I was in the woods but it didn't look like any of the woods I knew it was to dark and honestly it just had a creepy vibe to it. As I got to thinking of how I got there it hit me ok bad choice of words I remembered what had happened and that I was hit by a truck. At that i got up and looked around, with all the broken sticks, and twigs on the ground crunching with every step, and tall trees that blocking out most of the sunlight for as far as the eye could see I knew I was in a forest and started to panic. Also something else that was strange was it all kinda looked like the cartoon's I would watch. The colors were brighter then normal, and I was now very confused, ok if I was hit by a truck then shouldn't I be dead, but if that is the case why am I in a cartoon forest well I won't complain at least I am alive which if you couldn't tell is awesome. While I thought about my situation I looked around the area I was in and I found my iPod where I had slept at but it was dead.
After that I decided to start walking to see if I could try to find a town but of course I had to run into trouble first. Well more shock then trouble because standing in front of me was creature that had a body of a lion, wings that looked like bat wings, and a scorpion's tail, oh and did I mention the very very sharp teeth well if I didn't before I did now. Whatever this thing was it looked like something out of a nightmare and no way I am going to go near that thing. So I slowly started to back up and I quietly said to my self "how could this situation get any worse" (snap) me and my big mouth I just stepped on a twig and guess who is looking strait at me. I will give you a big hint it was something that looked like a hell spawn of a demon cat or in other words the the giant kitty that looked at me like I was a walking stake.
