Every day was the same.

You woke up. Went to work at the lousy office job with your not-so-great boss. Worked 12 hours, sometimes more to pay for your tiny apartment that seemed to cost a fortune and then came home right after dark.

It was depressing, truly. It seemed like a constant cycle.

You were simply just existing. Not ever really living. Nothing exciting ever happened to you.

But it’s funny how fate works.

Kaelan Lysander.

He was on his way home from work, himself. Walking down the city streets that were still partially filled with people and tourists. It was Friday which meant quite a few drunk people were out and about. That was the fun of living in New York, right?

The sound of a horn caught his attention. He looked up just in time to see an out of control car heading straight towards him.

Wait… an out of control car?

Kaelan was frozen. He couldn’t move. He saw his life flashing before his eyes. Just in that moment, he heard someone yell. It was followed by a force hard enough to knock him to the side as the car went barreling by.

You saved him.
