I've had an interesting life to be honest. I live with my uncle Lee in Tulsa.  I mean, I used to live with my dad in Durango, and my mom has not been in my life for a couple of years, nor do I want her in there either.  Lee is really cool, and kind of acts like a brother to me I guess you can say. My life has gone downhill since my dad died in a car crash, caused by my mom and her being an alcoholic. Now you can see why I have no contact with my mom anymore... and I refuse to visit her in jail either. My uncle Lee and I get along really well, but not certainly in the right ways. My friends and I have a lot of fun together, like me and my uncle do. We don't hang out with the cheerleaders, or the jocks. My friends are really, and not fake like everyone else in my school, so we do our own, reckless things. I feel alone in this world.  I mean, look at my life now at the age of 16. But besides the fact that my life is a train wreck, I go to school everyday, well most of the time, and am a normal teenager.  But normal experiences don't really happen to me.  This experience wasn't normal.  This certain experience changed my life.. Forever.

 My friends and I were int he woods on a Friday night.  We were just roaming, going on adventures. Adventures in the woods at 12:30? Reckless.  To be honest, I don't know why we were in the woods, but Dylan insisted we go.  It was dark, and no one could see.  Suddenly, I heard a scream, and then the next thing I knew I was in a knew whole world.  I woke up on the clouds, floating in the sky.  I sit up, and my head was pounding with pain.  I had very blurred vision, but as soon as it cleared up, everything was white, and I wasn't on a cloud anymore.  I was in one of those neverending white rooms.  For a moment, I seriously thought I was dead heading to the light, until I started running.  It felt like forever, until I suddenly started falling.  Through the clouds and onto something that caught me.. A mushroom.. A living mushroom?  I didn't know what was happening, and almost cried until I noticed that it wasn't possible to cry.  I legitimately couldn't.. But those thoughts weren't in my anymore once the mushroom started walking with me on top of it to this ginormous tree.  With all of this fear, to top it off, I had no idea where my friends were.  Great.  I was just in the woods, blacked out, woke up on clouds in the sky, ran through a never ending white room, and now I'm on a living mushroom walking towards a tree of life with my friends nowhere in site.. ?  I'm trippin', seriously. And then everything turned black.. Again?

"You are the chosen one Sam".  I open my eyes to mushroom people (huh?) surrounding me.  I stand up and notice now that I'm in this tree with millions of mushroom kind of people all with their eyes on me.  And when I look down in complete embarrassment, my friends are lying on the ground.. Dead.  I begin to cry, but not tears are coming out.  I had no time to worry about that because I mean, I'm surrounded by millions of mushroom people so.. I know this isn't even sounding possible, but it was happening right before my own eyes.  "Sam, you have a choice.  You can either become the King of our world and turn into one of US and be in this magical mushroom world where anything goes in your favor.. OR you can go back to Earth with your friends.  The only thing is, no one will remember you.  Your choice."  I was apalled, furious, RAGING! I can't stay in this world and turn into a mushroom. NO, NO, NO, NO! I had to go home! I had to lie.  "Yes, I will become your king, but on one condition.  You let me go through this world by myself, you know to check it out."  "As you wish." And I was out.

Running as fast as I could, I needed to find a way out of this world.  But how did I even get in here? I kept running, waiting for something to.. Black out... Again. Oh wait, it was a dream.

Or was it..
