Cody Danger Chapter 5 Dreaming of my Evil Pet Snake

Man I am in love! Jane is so beautiful. Her storm grey eyes are intimidating but they also sparkle every time I tell a joke. Her hair is messy but cute and her clothes are big sure but she still looks great. If I could make her trust us and act natural or whatever I might have a very small chance with her if I don't die from hunger anytime soon. Anyway when I closed my eyes I went fast asleep into a great dream. I was standing on a very polished white floor spreading across the...... Valley? I don't know what you call it but I could see it went out for miles.

I stepped forward half expecting someone to pop out but nothing happened so I kept walking forward.

"Hello?" My voice echoed across the room. "Is anybody here cause if they are they better hide cause I'm gonna beat them up with my awesomeness!" That shouldn't scare anybody cause I'm not awesome. I look around and nobody's there so I sigh and fall to the ground, sitting still.

That's when a figure comes up. "You are not awessssome hero." The figure hissed at the s.

I turned to look straight at the figure. It wore a flowing black robe that touched the ground. I couldn't see his face but I could tell you that he made it that way so he would stay in the shadows so nobody could see his face. "Yo." I said getting up. "Um so why don't you tell me why your inside my dreams? I mean dude that's kinda freaky I have you in my head um no offense." He hissed like a snake. "Dude that's seriously freaky could you please stop? Wait are you half snake? Is that why your face is covered? That's.....So.......COOL! I use to have a pet snake when I was younger. His name was slimey cause I wanted a slime monster instead of a snake." I grinned as he slowly stopped hissing.

He looked at me and I felt my heart beat fasten. We just stared at each other for what felt like forever. Finally he made a hissing cackle like he was trying to laugh but was choking on something. "Hero you should stop hiding behind your jokes trying to protect your friends from seeing the real you." His eyes were dark black (If black could be any darker.).

He reached a hand over towards me like he was trying to grab me. It was bony and shriveled like a old man. Before he could grab me my dream shifted like someone at a bar passing drinks. I first saw me and the Matias dude sitting together watching something on the hill. Then I saw Jone by himself in a dark room, tears splattering on the ground. Finally I saw me, Ken and Jane looking at a sunset over a bunch of rubble.

I was about to go to my next dream or whatever when a stone spoke to me. "Cody! Dude wake up!" I kicked it as I woke up with a very angry Ken Craig over me and a Matias on the floor.

"Ow!" Matias said as he got up slowly. "Man you kick hard!"

As I got up from my makeshift bed sunlight blinded me and I toppled over onto Ken who was standing next to me probably ready to scold me for kicking Matias. Together me and Ken fell onto a hurt and confused Matias and we crashed to the ground.

That's when Jane came into the room with Jone trailing behind her. "What's going on here?" Even angry she was beautiful. She stopped at the entrance of the room and stared taking in the scene.

"Morning Jane." I groaned. I got up and helped Ken up as Matias got up himself and walked toward Jane. "Ugh. That could wake up anybody." I looked over and grinned and Jone. "How was your sleep bud? Probably better then mine you know with the evil snake dude who wanted to touch me." Everybody stopped moving and stared at me.

"That's a joke right?" Ken looked at me like I was crazy. "Please let it be a joke."

"Sorry dude but no joke." I looked at all of there confused faces. "Here I'll tell you guys later. So what's on the to-do list? Roast marshmallows? I could use some of those right now."

Jane shook her head. "No this is not a camp Cody." She looked up and grinned. "Although that would be nice." I smiled crazily.

I'm getting there. I thought to myself. Slowly.....

Before I could continue my very interesting thoughts Ken spoke up. "He is right about one thing. What should we do?"

Jone cleared his throat. "Well I was talking with Jane and there is this quest thing like a prophecy here that says a boy named Ken Craig should lead a group of 5 but one dies so actually 4 people and they have to stop something evil."

Ken looked nervous but spoke up. "If I have to lead a group and stop evil I guess I have no choice. Who's coming?"

Matias looked at Ken. "Well it said you needed somebody smart, kind, fast and somebody..." He looked at me. "And a person who can build almost anything."

Everybody stared at me as Ken stepped forward. "So I need Jone, Jane, Matias and Cody. You guys want to come?" Everybody agreed except me who stood still and looked at the ground.

I can build almost anything? I thought to myself.

I was so busy thinking to myself I didn't notice everybody staring at me again. "So..." Ken said. "You coming dude?"

I looked at him and grinned. "Well a person dying is just great! Also evil? I love evil! Where do I sign up?"
