AN: Hey guys, sorry it took me so long to update! Actually, I'm reposting my original piece, so..it's not really updating.
The reason why it took me so long to repost was because of Lent. We are supposed to give up something that we do too much, or has a bad effect on us, or leads us away from God.
Well…I gave up fanfiction. Let me tell you, it was one of the hardest Lents in my life! I did break once or twice, but not to take the time to update, sorry. But I'm back and that's what matters!
Anyway, I'm reposting this and it'll look a little different. I hadn't developed the piece well enough before, and I hope it's a bit better. I cut up the chapters, but the info's pretty much the same.
Thank you for reading!
Disclaimer: I do not own ANYTHING! If I did, do you really think I would be writing on fanfiction changing MY OWN story? Although that might be fun just to mess with people...nope, don't own a thing!
Stepping In: Chapter 1
I was driving home from a friend's house one snowy day. I turned on the CD in my car and realized that it was the mixed CD my sister had made for me before she went to college. I hear something buzz next to me in the cup holders and pick up my cell phone. My mom's face showed up on the screen and I pressed the talk button.
"Hey Mom, what's up?" I asked while turning down the CD and keeping my eyes on the road at the same time.
"Hey sweetie, I just wanted to ask if you could drive by the hospital and ask your father what he wants for dinner. He left his cell phone here." I rolled my eyes. I wasn't that surprised. My dad is a surgeon at Saint Thomas's Hospital, but fortunately, he misplaces his phone and wallet more often than livers. It wasn't that far away from where I was driving so it didn't really matter.
"Sure Mom, no prob. Anything else?"
"No, that's all. Drive safely, Robin. Love you. "
"Love you too Mom. Bye." I hung up and took the light to my dad's hospital. After I made the turn, I turned up my CD and waited for the next song. I soon found out it was the finale song from a movie called Moulin Rouge. I smiled as the music swelled. I loved this song, but it made me so sad at the same time that it ends so tragically after this song. I wiped those thoughts out of my head and just tried to enjoy the song.
I could already see my dad's hospital when some freaky stuff started to happen. Now, if you are uncomfortable with things that stray from, well… the norm, this is where you get off. Nice meeting you. Be sure to pick up a t-shirt on the way out. For those of us still here, while I was driving, the music started acting funny. It somehow changed back to radio and messed around the stations.
"What the hell…" I muttered while trying to change it back and watch the road. This car might not be the nicest, but it sure as hell was reliable and never broke down. And I'm pretty sure it never had this kind of problem with the radio system. It became very quiet in the car, as the entire sound system muted. I just ignored it and decided to as my brother when I got home.
Suddenly I heard a strict voice speaking though where my music should be coming from.
"Robin Lockwood, you have a mission to do."
I started to freak out a little bit. "What the heck is going on?" All of the sudden, I couldn't see anything in front of me. My entire front window lit up with a white light. I started to scream, wouldn't you? I slammed on the brakes, but nothing happened. I had no idea what to do.
Gonna have to talk to Dad a little later, I guess.
Finally, the lights went away. However, instead of finding a busy street full of cars, I was driving though a street full of people!
"Holy Shit," I screamed as I turned my steering wheel as hard as I could to avoid the women and men…in bowler hats?
