"Wake up Jack, you're going to be late for school," Dad said from the doorway. Jack opened his eyes and looked around, somehow he was in his bed. He glanced out the window and to his excitement the sun was already up in the sky saying hello in it's own way. But how was he home, the last thing he remembered was fighting Mr. Graves?
"Um, Dad," Jack called for his father. "What do you mean I have school today?" His Dad was immediately back in his doorway wearing a huge grin. "Well, buddy," he began to explain, "it looks like somebody fixed the problem last night and they have managed to get the power back up this morning." Dad started to walk back down the hall but stopped and poked his head back in. "I wonder who we have to think for all those flares last night?" he asked with a chuckle.
He had really done it, he was really a hero just like the Force Guardians! The whole way to school he felt like he was walking on air. Everything seemed brighter, everyone was smiling and happy, it was a great day. Jack even managed to get to school a few minutes early and saw a whole bunch of other kids were gathered around outside the school. Kim and Ben ran over to greet him.
"Whats going on?" Jack asked his friends. "Look what a bunch of people have been finding," Ben told him as he held out his hand. In it was a small strange piece of rock, Kim held one up as well. "I bet it's from that meteor the other day," Kim said as she studied hers. "How many were there?" Jack asked concerned.
"A bunch," they both answered at the same time. Jack had hoped they were going to say anything but that. It seemed like things were only just beginning to be interesting in his little town. Well, at least they had a bright flare for emergencies!
The End
