Prologue

                                    

                                          
"You don't know how long I waited for this day to come, Zeltal!! Now show me what you're truly capable of!" A tall shadowy figure yelled out at the individual named Zeltal while charging at them at full speed.
"I could say the same thing for you." Zeltal leaped into the air charging at the shadowy figure head on. Both of their fists collided causing a Shockwave on impact.
Beep beep beep "Huh? Oh crap." There was a loud thud on impact. "Ouch." A man got up from the floor disappointed and turned off his alarm clock. 
Sigh "It was just a dream huh, I haven't had one of those in a while, and was that supposed to be me?"
If i could recall dreams could have a certain meaning to them but i don't think having a magical battle with whatever that thing was would count, try telling that to your therapist. I have no problem with my current lifestyle I guess. I'm not the type of person who likes to get out there and do stuff or even talk to people, I rather stay in the comfort of my own house, sleep and play games all day with no distraction. I live alone with no family, no significant other or a household pet. Does that make me sound like a sad, lazy person? In a way, yes but that's how I enjoy living.
"Hey Ethan, you finally decided to show up early for once." A tall light brown man with dark hair called out my name while sitting down at his office desk waving at me.
"Good morning Miko. I'm just here to get some documents finished that are due by the end of the week." I replied then took a seat at my work desk while looking somewhat tired.
For as long I could remember Miko and I have been friends since elementary and all the way up to adulthood. He's actually the reason why I got this job in the first place. He put in a good word for me with the boss of the company. The more I think of it, I always relied on Miko. I wouldn't have graduated college if he didnt tutored the heck out of me. Even with work he stayed over time just to make sure all my work was finished on time so I wouldn't get fired.
"Another late night?" Miko asked.
I yawned. "Yeah, I stayed up most of the night on a MMO game and even then I barely got any sleep due to a strange dream I had." I replied.
"You should try doing other things for a change Ethan or you'll end up regretting not living life to the fullest one of these days. Why don't you come to the gym with me? I'll help you get that fragile body into shape. " Miko responded
I chuckled a little after hearing what Miko said. "Thanks but no thanks. I'm good with my simple lifestyle and I don't want to work more than I already am, that's more like a you thing just look at yourself you are literally the image of the perfect human." I replied.
"Huh, me perfect? I'm far from perfect. There is no such thing as a perfect being, only a being who wants to improve themselves." Miko responded in a confident voice and a proud smile.
"Yeah, yeah thanks for the prep talk Mr. perfect now hand me today's documents." I said jokingly to Miko.
"Well, suit yourself." Miko handed over the documents for today. "Just think of what I said okay?"
"Thanks, I'll take that into consideration." I took the documents from his hands and got to work.
And that's how I continued to live for the next six months. Nothing really changed and I don't plan on doing anything different anytime soon, well that was the original plan before it happened the night of Christmas eve.
"Merry Christmas everybody and a happy new year!!" Miko announced to everybody in the office while handing out gifts to each one to our fellow coworkers.
The boss company decided to host a small party the night of christmas eve to thank all their workers for their hard work this year. And it seems like everybody is enjoying themselves and having a good time with one another, while I started packing up my things in my work bag because I wasn't planning on staying long, I wanted to get home already and sleep the night away after a day of hard work.
