Pebble

Earth, United States, Alaska, Fairbanks.

Fairbanks population is 31,324, it's not a big city but its consider a pretty big compared with there rest in Alaska.

Jack Williams, 18 years old, he is a citicent in this city.

Jack is a quiet person, and doesn't care about the problems of other people, he has the mentality that people do thing just to please other, but they hide their true self behind the mask they show to the rest of the world, and he feels disgust to hang with such fake people.

Jack's family only consists of him and his cousin Peter, Jack's parents died in a car accident when he was in elementary, so he doesn't remember to much about them.

The government decided to send him to his only relatives, Peter's family that lived in Alaska.

Two years after living with his relatives, Peter's parents divorced.

Peter's father left, and his whereabouts are unknown.

A year later after the divorce Peter's mother pass away, out of depression, and although this had nothing to do with Jack, it created a mental trauma in his mind.

"Alone... be alone... So you don't suffer the pain again."

Jack has been living with this thought throughout his life, that it has formed into his way of living.

He doesn't seeks friendship, and when somebody wants to get close to him, he distants himself from them. The only exception was his cousin Peter, whom he was spend several years with.

Jack being 18 years old, is in his last year of high school, being a Sinior, he is only required to attend 3 classes.

Today was a normal day for Jack, he had woken up, just when he was about to get out of bed, Peter marched right in into the room, yelling.

"JACK!!!! get your ass out of bed already"

"....can you keep it quiet... I'm already up"

Jack answered Peter, trying to fight the dizziness in his head.

Seen that Jack had already woken up Peter said just few words, but they sounded with a hint of affection, the love between family. being the only family member that he had Peter treated Jack like a real brother.

"Hurry up, I didn't want to get another phone call, just because you are late again"

"I know, I know.... by the way what was the problem with the truck?"

Jack asked, as he was getting ready to leave the house.

"The mechanic said it had to do with the transmission, but he fixed it during the weekend so it should be alright"

"ok, I'm leaving"

Peter only responded with a nod of his head.

Since Peter was several years older than Jack, he had to drop out of school to be able to pay for the expenses of both of them. He works as an electrician, and the amount of money he got was only enough to pay for remote mobile home, almost in the outskirts of the city.

Jack had to walk a little path, to be able to reach his old truck, as he was walking he saw something shine at the corner of his eye. since it was close by he dicided to pick it up, and check what it was, and notice it was a little pebble.

Jack got attracted to it the moment he saw it, little pebble was unique it was like silver but it also had crystals in it, he notice that half was silver and the other was made up of crystal, and there was something in the middle, but since it was still dark outside, he couldn't really see what it was.

Jack was examining the little pebble, and he got so immersed that he felt something what pulling his attation into the little pebble, as he was going to sink more deeply into that weird feeling Peter's voice sounds in his head.

"What are you doing standing there for? hurry your ass up or you are going to be late."

Jack woke up from that weird feeling, as he heard what Peter said he left in a hurry.

Jack put the little pebble in his pocket, as he was really curious about the little rock, and felt that it was not really simple at all.

When Jack was on his way to school, the little pebble was glowing with a faint light, but it died real quick, so Jack was unable to notice this weird phenomenon.

~~~~~~

On a mountain near Jack's home, a light similar to the one the little pebbles released, was glowing on the mountain wall too, as the light extinguish a black hole appeared on the wall. It looked as if it was the mouth of a hungry beast, it could eat anything or anyone that dare to get close to it.

It was an entace to a cave, but there had never been a cave on that place. Then a light flash inside the cave, it looked like a lighting bolt and then the cave went back to normal.

On that moment the first dungeon on the world was created.
