Parallel Universe Log
By Ratt K.

It’s been a few days since I first came into this alternate universe. Before I had come here, Feeya had told me all about this place. So I knew what to do.

I figured out where “my” house was. I walked in the front door, and my “mom” looked at me with a questioning/angry look. “Feeya?” she asked, “what in the world did you do to your hair?”

“I cut it,” I replied, trying to sound casual. So THIS is my mom… I thought.

It was a two story house. I walked up the stairs and went into “my” room and put down the backpack that Feeya had left for me. I went back downstairs.

“How was school?” ‘my’ mom asked.

“Uh…” –I tried to think of what normal kids’ opinions of school were— “it sucked.”

My mom frowned. “What happened?”

“Well…um…you know…” I started, unsure of what to answer.

“No, I don’t know…what is it?”

“Uh…my…uh…friend fell off the roof. He’ll be okay, though,” I said, trying to think of something that I would consider a “sucky” situation, but not so extreme that it wouldn’t be considered not normal.

“OH DEAR MOTHER OF GOD! WHO?!” My mom freaked out.

“._. Just a friend.” I didn’t understand why she was freaking out so much. I said that he would be okay, didn’t I?

“Which one?! We should go to the hospital!!!”

“No…it’s fine…” o.o She was overreacting…

Suddenly there was a knock on the door, saving me from her panic. “I’ll get it!” I offered immediately, and rushed to the door. I flung it open.

My breath caught.

Standing in front of me were my friends…well, my alternate friends. Plant/Flare, Tina, Pein…wait…is that…Flyboy???

“Oh, hey guys!” I greeted.

“Hey Feeya,” Tina said.

“Hey Tina!” I pointed at Flyboy. “Why is he here?”

“You mean Ariel?” Tina asked.

Flyboy’s alternate name is ARIEL?!?! I thought. I laughed hysterically in my head.

“Yeah.”

“Well, we thought it would be cool to bring your boyfriend along. ^^” Tina explained.

WHAT?! my mind screamed. MY BOYFRIEND?! FLYBOY IS MY BOYFRIEND?! Feeya forgot to mention this small detail…o.e

However, my face remained calm. “Oh, right. Thanks.” I smiled back.

Flyboy—I mean, “Ariel”—walked up to me and gave me a hug.

I jumped back in surprise and he quickly backed away. “What’s wrong, Fee?” he asked, worried.

I tried to think of a good excuse. “Uh…not in front of my mom!” I whispered.

“Oh. Alright,” Ariel agreed. I still laughed at his name. It would be fine for a girl…but not a boy.

I tried to remember what Feeya had said about my alternate friends.

Plant/Flare was Ray…and “I” was afraid of him, due to his dark personality. Though, from what Feeya said, I gather he isn’t so cold in this universe.

Tina was Tina…and she was not as tough as she is in my universe, and a bit…flirty.

Pein was Dorran…and he was just about the same.

And she might have said something about “Ariel” being just about the same, but I didn’t know that Ariel was FLYBOY!

Ah, crap. My parents are making me stop writing and go to bed. This is definitely gonna take some getting used to…oh well, I won’t be here for too long, anyway. I will write more later. Well, tomorrow. Or something. Goodnight!

{Thanks goes to Tina for helping me write this, the quality wouldn’t have been as good without her}
