chapter III
the prince
Maana was a great athlete. Focused in whatever sports she played. It was her dream to be the best. That was until she had the accident. Her boyfriend at that time was not Zim, but was equally challenged in the head but in a bad way. He feared nothing. Something probably dangerous for a 15 year old. Archie (Athif) was born into a family of thieves. Not the handsome ones you see on tv. Not the ones who plan ahead and go for a big score with minimum casualties. This family prided itself on breaking into houses and taking whatever they could. They do have a mitigation strategy though, beat up anyone to death who comes into their way. Coming back to Archie, he walked around with the air of a prince. Who wouldn't? with a family like that backing him up.
Maana was also 15 at that time. Being good at both sports and studies she had actually become pretty independent. Meaning her parents rarely bothered her about anything. Maana was opened minded. Maybe too much. That would be one reason her friends say that she started going out with Archie. One other reason her enemies pointed out was that Archie was, well a hunk.
It was a great night to go for a ride. Archie called ahead to confirm that they were going out and Maana had said yes. And it wasnt long after that Archie picked her up from her house. By this time the independent Maana, whose parents had total faith in was losing this faith. Her grades had fallen. And all she did at that time of her life was play sports and be with Archie. Who by the way was not a good boy, something her mother whispered in her ear more than once and something Maana had totally ignored. Not because she didnt know it, just what did parents know anyway?
They were driving on Ameenee Magu, and when Archie drove, he drove. They were going about 50 when a cycle came out onto Ameenee Magu from FSM.
*CRASH*
"Oh...where....oh where could...my...baby be
The lord.....took...her a..way....from me
She's...gone to hea..ven...so.."
Manaa thought it weird that she was whispering that song. Aching all over not being able to move and she was singing to herself? She could see the stars, the black night. Taste the blood flowing slowly into her mouth. What she didnt hear was even a breath of Archie. Nothing. "He cant be dead" she thought, "He cant be..."
She woke up to an upside down world. Of bickering parents not concerned ones. Of friends who told her so and of enemies who actually thought she was the reason a "hunk" had left the world. Yes, Archie died. If he had survived he would not have been able to move or speak. In more blunt words he would have been a vegetable. Manaa still wished he was alive, but was thankful that he did not survive just to become paralyzed. As for her she suffered a fatal knee injury. A concussion and lots of cuts and bruises. But sigh she thought, she was alive.
