Part two is up!
Kyle’s story began because of a fox. Kyle was born as Kyle Redfur, a simple boy born to a wealthy family in New York. His parents worked in a prominent Law Firm, meaning Kyle lived fairly well off. While he was happy, Kyle still longed to be something bigger than himself. Kyle went to good schools and generally enjoyed his walks to and from school. One snowy December morning, Kyle took a walk to school on a different path.
And this is where our story begins.
Kyle was whistling to himself while walking his normal path home when he saw a split in the path. Looking down the path, he thought he saw a shape moving in the distance. Kyle, looking around and seeing no one around, darted quickly down the path. He frantically looked around.
That’s when he heard it.
Kyle suddenly heard a soft, high-pitched whine to his left. He turned around and saw something he couldn’t believe. It was a small, frail, cold grey fox. The two stared at each other for what seemed like hours. All Kyle felt at the time was pity for the fox he had come across. He picked up the whimpering fox and tucked the frail creature in the folds of his jacket. He then walked back home, stroking the fox all the way home
Once he got home, he took the fox straight to his room and placed it on an old dog bed. He wrapped the little fox in blankets and set it in front of a heater. After sitting with the fox for a while, he got up to let it sleep.
The next morning, Kyle woke up to find the fox lying asleep on his belly. After petting it for a while, Kyle set it down on his pillow and got ready for school. Once he got back, the fox was sitting on his bed, wagging its tail, waiting for him. Kyle energetically set down his backpack and hopped on his bed, playing with the fox.
This went on for quite a long time. Kyle soon named the fox after his favorite color: Red. Kyle and Red’s relationship grew and soon became an inseparable bond. Everyone who saw them together couldn’t believe how strong a relationship the two had formed. Even his own parents loved the bond between them. This relationship grew and grew.
But all good things are not meant to last.
April 25, 2015
Kyle took Red out for a walk on that fateful warm Saturday afternoon. Kyle had read a newspaper article about a lab that had reportedly exploded a few days earlier, but paid no mind to it. Taking Red out was part of his daily routine by now. Kyle decided to take Red into the hustle and bustle of downtown New York
It was this decision that Kyle would regret for the rest of his days.
Suddenly, A burst of blue light emanated from the nearest Skyscraper. Kyle recognized the tower to be Stark Tower. Suddenly, a beam shot into the air and collided with the sky. But instead of continuing on, the beam stopped and formed a portal-like opening in the sky. Kyle gasped as alien-like ships flew out of the portal. Kyle grabbed Red and started running back the way he came.
People all around him were yelling and running in terror. Kyle dodged a car that nearly hit him and made for Central Park. Suddenly, a missile struck the ground and threw him to the side. Red flew out of his arms and landed further away. Another concussion rattled him, and his vision went blurry.
Kyle swung his head from side to side, taking in the scenery. Everything around him burned. Rubble was strewn everywhere, and he was bleeding badly in several places. But only one thing was on his mind.
“Where is Red!!!?!!!”
