New Story Beginning

  Hi everyone, as you have seen in the previous blog post I wrote a story, well, I just started a new one, but it is very early on and I have only done one paragraph. I'm not sure how long to make it yet, or even where it is going. This is in no way related to the previous story. I need a name for the main character as well, that is why he is called X.

Here it is:

  X was awoken by the deafening sound of his telephone. He got up, stumbled across the room and wearily picked up the receiver…

  “Hello?”

  There was a long silence. Then X heard a strange voice at the other end.

  “Forget everything, just get down to the docks, you have 5 minutes.”

  The dial tone ripped through X’s ears like a knife. Who had called him? Why did they want him? X began to stagger around the room and with a crash hit the floor. He needed to pull himself together, it could have been anyone but why would they have demanded him? He decided he would have to go, it could have been a ransom demand, it could have been a friend, and there was only one way to find out.

  Please comment, I am not sure whether to continue with it.
