Dream Realm - Chapter One

 Lars is finally on his own, he had moved out to start a new life as a young adult. With a small house that was plenty big enough for just him.

It was all he needed, his parents helped him get what he needed to start out. Being the only child they did all they could to support his needs.

With no idea on how to really cook, Lars headed to see what was quick and easy to make.

"Ah, food in a bottle, how easy is this," he thought as he drank it.

Lars headed to the bathroom to get ready for work, he's currently serving on the elite force.

Lars decided to tidy up before his girlfriend arrived.

Dressed and all cleaned up, he decided to tidy up so she didn't think he was a total slob. He was just finishing up with feeding the fish when he heard the door bell ding.

Lars opened the door to find Lisa waiting for him. "Hey love, glad to see you," he told Lisa giving her a big hug.

She sat down on the couch beside him. He pulled her close, "So how was your day?" she asked. "Its going great, I got everything unpacked. I have to admit its kinda weird not having my mom and dad around," he replied. Lisa just giggled at Lars.

Watching the news it caught their attention when the saw a report about the epidemic that was sweeping through their race. Many were falling ill by the day and they still had no answers on the reason or cause.

"It's getting worse, they are calling all the females in to be checked. I have to go tomorrow to see if I'm effected," Lisa told Lars. "It will be ok, even if you can't have children we can still have a life together," he told her. "I know, but if this continues, it will be the end of our kind," she replied sadly.

"I have to go for now, work calls. I'll talk to you later," he told her giving her a kiss.

"Love you, see you tomorrow!" Lisa told him with a goodbye kiss.

After she left, he pondered on what it all meant, her getting tested and the news. "Was it really that bad?" he asked himself.
