This happened to me 3 years ago. I was standing at the bus stop wearing headphones, and then, suddenly the music stopped playing. Before I could reach for the pocket to turn it back on, it started playing again.
But during that moment while the music was off, in my ears I felt something like an electric shock. I didn't really pay much attention to it, wiped off my headphones; I thought it was some glitch. 15 minutes later I stepped off the bus and saw a scary dude, he was in a white robe, and with a mustache. He just stood there and looked at me. I looked back at him, and went about my business.
And that's when it all began! I started seeing this guy every day - at bus stops, on the subway, just somewhere on the street. And most importantly, I always saw him in the situations when I could not approach him. In the subway – on the opposite escalator: I'm going down, he is going up. The train starts to move – he is standing outside the door. I am walking on the second floor at the university, he is looking at me through the window looks, and so on. In all cases, I could never approach him! It lasted for 11 days. And then I saw him again. I was on the tram, and he was standing in the street looking at me through the window. I couldn't stand it anymore, so I shouted to the driver:
- Stop, I have to get out now!
Although there was no stop there, he stopped. Not taking my eyes off the bastard, I went straight to him. He still stood there quietly and was looking at me.
I walked over and asked:

- Who are you? What do you want from me??
In response, he quietly took my hand, and began talking.
- Come on, good boy, wake up, finally!
I didn't know what to do, and just stood there.
He continued on, - Wake up, look around, don't you see what is happening?
He started yelling at me, louder and louder!
Finally, I broke away, and woke up.
Everything that I saw shocked me!
In reality, at the bus stop, me and 3 other people got hit by a car. And all that time I was in a coma. And everything that was happening to me was some sort of delirium of my brain that was injured in the accident. And that guy that I always saw was my doctor, who, as it turned out, for 6 days had been fighting for my life. When I fully recovered, I told him everything. Strangely enough, he quietly listened to me, and said, that it was normal. And even when I told him that there, in my pseudo-reality, I supposedly spent 11 days. He replied to me that it was normal too, because when in a coma the human brain cannot keep track of the time.
After all this, for 3 years now, I believe in nothing, and I don't believe anyone.
I am constantly feeling as if I'm still there. Or here, I really don'tknow how to explain it.

Wild Child
Flynn was a normal college student with a normal routine. Wake up, go to school, come home, do homework, laze around until midnight, lay in bed trying not to let the existential dread of inevitable death set it, and go to sleep. Completely normal stuff, really. That is until he mysteriously wakes up in a space between dimensions with game-like prompts demanding he purchase skills before he is sent off to another world. And look at that, it only takes 95% of his skill points to buy the [Eternal Youth] skill, what a steal! Too bad that in this new world there is no civilization, uh… anywhere. ---------------- Hey all, this is just a side project I’m working on in my spare time so I don’t get burned out while writing my more planned out stories. I’m making all of this up as I go on, so read at your own risk.

World War Academy [DROPPED]
EDIT: Hello, as you can tell this story is dropped. reason why this is the case is that I really didn't know where I was going to take this story and really, I wasn't satisfied with how I was writing here. However I am currently writing a completely new story and with it is that I am taking some aspects from here and using the ideas on my new story. New characters, new ideas, new plot, everything is completely new. So I hope that goes well and i'll leave this story up as reference for me in the future. Thank you Akani Kizuato. An 18 year old that recently started to live on his own to get away from life. With his sister and father dead from the wars as they fought in, he tried to continue life and tried not to let it get in his way. It may seem that way but with his whole life planned out, it may not seem to be. He had been rejected from all universities within the nation despite being top of his class, which is very unusual because even local colleges rejected him. It was as if he was banned to go to any of those places but uknowingly why. As he ranted, and relieved stress on the school rooftop, he had received an email from an anonymous source saying that he was accepted into some academy, which he had never heard of before. With events that lead up to his mysterious encounter with people who are there to take him, it may be quite a ride. Cover art made in Adobe Spark.
