Cyberman Book 1- The Beginning Author's Note - This is my first story, it's another superhero one, but it's quite interesting. Here is a little key. 'this means it is the main character's thoughts.' And everything else is normal.
Chapter 1
'Black. Total black darkness. That's how my story begins. Hello there, my name is Jimmy Jones. I'm an 11-year-old, like you possibly. Life tends to throw you curveballs, and unless the bat hits it, you strike out. I learned that the hard way. That's me walking. You know, against the black background. I've got chocolate brown locks as my sister says, blue-green eyes, a navy blue hooded sweatshirt, dark blue jeans, and black sneakers. It's my week of 6th grade starting tomorrow, but I never realized that it would do more than change my grades, it would change my life forever. Before I get carried away, I'd like you to remember this. If someone told you this was the story of a normal kid,

Somebody lied. Let's fast-forward a bit shall we? It's the morning of (groan) my first day of school, a Tuesday.' Opens up to a kid in his bed, in white pajamas with sky blue spots. The very loud alarm clock goes off, and the kid tries to reach it, but he can't, so he yanks it and throws it on the ground. "Jimmy! Time to get up!!!!!" He could hear his mother's voice. "Uggh", Jimmy mumbled. He sat up, rubbed his eyes and blinked. "Great. Eleven more years of this, then it's off to the rat race. Yippee." He added sarcastically. The boy got up, walked over to his dresser, and changed into what was considered his trademark outfit, his sweatshirt and jeans. Slipping his sneakers and socks on, he heard his mother's voice again. "Jimmy! Hurry up! Don't make me come up there." "I'm coming!" 'Keep your head on!' He said to himself. He walked down the hallway, slid down the stair railing, and came to the breakfast table. There was his family. His redheaded sister, Jessy, wore a headband, a black turtleneckish shirt, blue pants and black flip-flops. She was starting her freshmen year at University High there. Jimmy went to Vista Verde, an interesting school that went from K-8. Their mother was cooking eggs. She possessed hair reminiscent of Jimmy. She wore a red shirt, a blue bracelet, and yellow pants. Then there was his father, a great scientist that tried to find a way to get rid of all computer viruses, even if he is a bit paranoid. He had black combed hair and a blue lab coat on with a black pair of gloves and boots. The toaster popped up toast, making a springing noise. "COMPUTER VIRUS!" He yelled, and shot a laser beam at the toaster. (By the way, he has built many science-fictiony gadgets in his lab in the basement. His next project was to find a way to physically manifest onto the Internet.) "Daddy!" Jessy yelled. "That's the third toaster this month!" The father stirred for a second, then declared. "If computer viruses take over this planet, so help me God, you won't come crawling to me when it happens. Cause I would have already taken care of it." He resumed from his dramatic pose. Jimmy snickered. "Now-now, dear, don't laugh at your father's ambitions. Someday, maybe he really will manifest onto the Internet." Jimmy was now bursting with laughter on the floor, while his oblivious father said "What, what was the joke? I missed it? What was the joke?!" He said, staring into Jimmy's eyes. "Eh, nothing Dad, just. oh, look at the time. I better go." He ran out the door, chuckling to himself "physically entering the Internet? Yeah, when pigs fly and birds eat mud." 'Little did I notice, a sparrow was enjoying a breakfast of wet dirt beside me.' AN(author's note)- Yes, it was a bit slow, but I need to use the first 2 chapters to set the scenario. I don't want to give anything away, but trust me, this will get a WHOLE lot better. R&R PLEASE, I will continue this book, then tell me if I should make the sequel I have in mind. Wait for the final chappies, 'k?
