Ellis woke up in his dull apartment. He looked around as if ripped from a dream, and then remembered today was a special day. 
"Sky High today, huh. I hope we make new friends, I guess. Right, Mister? " He told the blurry white cat that appeared out of nowhere, flickering in and out of existence. 
Ellis then got dressed, his black long sleeved shirt, jeans, and his battered sneakers. He then took his already packed bag, which didn't contain much, and went out. 
It was still too early, but Ellis went to the bus stop, hoping maybe, to make a new friend. He walked with his poorly maintained illusion, Mister, and they arrived at the bus stop.
