There comes a time in everyone’s life where they experience there first scare. A grand opening, a life-changing event that sets to open to more similar feelings. And with that first experience so to say that first good scare, some people are filled with different emotions. Some people may experience laughter from it while others may experience tears of pain. And with each experience you never really know how you may react, not really knowing at that time what you may feel or how to accept it. But what if you never experienced that feeling before? And was left out of life all together not knowing that one good scare? So how would you truly know when it would come, what would you truly do when it was there? So you see, my name is Jerry and I’m about to tell you a story of my good friend Jason Worlds, and how we took him on an adventure to experience his first, that one good scare.

Chapter 1

The Meeting

As I lay on the couch with a cigar in my hand. I begin to rub my head in frustration until I couldn’t take it anymore and begin to stand. As I stood there I could her a voice in the air, it was the voice of a woman as gentle as a touch was her words as she continued to repeat herself.

Doctor - (repeating herself) Just breathe, Mr. Clemens, or should I say Jerry? I need you to calm down and tell me what’s bothering you.

Jerry - Doctor, I just don’t understand.

Doctor - (looking at her notebook) You just don’t understand what?

Jerry - Jason, I just don’t understand him. I mean, he has got to be the luckiest guy in the world. You should have seen him, the trip was a big disaster. This man is like the bloody hammer of Thor and his spirit could not be broken. No matter what me or Benny threw his way. We just couldn’t give him that that one good scare. Not to mention the times that we were either almost eaten or died, it happened too often, the numbers were too much to count. I’m starting to think God loves him and only him and hates us. No man could experience what we did and not get scared. But no, not Jason, he’s insane, he has to be insane and just thinking about the situation just drives me crazy.

Doctor - Well, you seem to me to be experiencing some type of trauma.

Jerry - Oh, no, Doc, I’m experiencing way more than trauma.

You don’t understand, this man is like the golden egg that couldn’t be touched. He’s invincible, because no matter what happened or how bad things seemed. Only good seemed to have come out of it for him. Go on a trip, they said, it will be fun, they said. I got bit in the butt, I don’t know if you ever experienced how painful it is, to have teeth tearing through your flesh. (taking a deep breath) I cried and cried in ways that you could never imagine. But not only me, because Benny seemed to have caught the worst of it. Poor little guy just didn’t stand at chance out there.

Doctor - Okay, Mr. Clemens, why don’t you sit down and tell me everything that happened?

Jerry - Thanks, Doctor, but I’d rather stand, my butt still hurts from what that beast done to me so I can’t sit down long. The only thing I can do in this situation is think happy thoughts and be a man. Like Daddy always said, if you get bit in the rear go drink you some beer or something like that. I don’t think he was a man of logic, and I can’t remember all he said. But forget all that, I’m just upset that after all this I’m still going to lose my best friend in the end. And the promise that I made I couldn’t keep it. To give him that one good scare in life before it would all be over. So I guess in the end things change and nothing lasts forever.

As I begin to blow and clear my mind I thanked the doctor for seeing me, as I begin to walk out the door I then hear her begin to yell my name as I turned towards her in shock.

Doctor - (frustrated) Jerry, sit back down now. Oh, you’re not leaving now so don’t think of even walking out that door. For one, why are you thanking me for seeing you, when you barged into my office and sat down out of nowhere? I’ve been trying to tell you for the longest time that a session going on at this time with a couple already. You were so worried about you and what was going on that you didn’t hear a word I said. Then you have the nerve to just walk out here like nothing just happened, the nerve of you sometimes. Talking to you is like talking to a brick wall and nothing goes through. But you’re not leaving, not now, so sit down. And while you’re there you’re going to explain yourself from the beginning.

Jerry - Dana, look.

Dana - Don’t use my first name and like we’re friends. Or even think we’re close to being on a friend-name basis. My name is Doctor Childs and you make sure you say it right. Or so help me you won’t get to live to see another day. Now say sorry and not just to me but to the two people sitting in the corner. Now apologize for ruining their session.

At that moment I noticed two people in the corner of the room. The man was a about my height and young.
