When Xiao Ji was just a little boy, he would always help out his father on their farm; regardless of the season.
Since he lived in the far-out countryside, he never attended school and his only other form of human companionship was a girl named Anya who lived a few fields away.
Her family had moved out from one of the large bustling cities and she still attended school. Xiao Ji could remember the summer days when they could finally be together since school let out; her face glowing like soft petals in the light of the hot sun as she cheerfully explained the latest concepts that she had learned. It was innocent love and Xiao Ji wanted to protect her forever.
They would sit in the shade of a chestnut tree, having cleared out the sharp bristly shells and talk about the latest lessons that had been precariously memorized or they would just lean on each other's shoulders, enjoying the summers of their childhood that would soon fade away.
Xiao Ji had to thank God that He had provided him with such companionship.
When they weren't in the shade of the tree, they would be wandering the fields that seemed to make up the world, talking and enjoying each other's presence, occasionally stopping at a small puddle that had formed above a broken irrigation pipe to rehydrate.
This was what went on for nearly eight summers until the mysterious egg was found bathing in the water of a puddle that Xiao Ji and his friend had planned to drink out of.
At first, they had kept it hidden. Both of them had painstakingly taken care of it; make sure that their parents or a wild animal wouldn't stumble upon it. Each day of that summer, they would eagerly run for miles to the tree, hoping that the egg would be still there and each day, to their satisfaction, it remained.
The chestnut tree now had a new occupant, who would remain for nearly two more summers until the day that, to the surprise of the Anya, Xiao Ji himself hatched from it.
Since that was last summer, Xiao Ji still remembered it vividly. He had parted with the girl as usual and returned home to potato soup.
After that, he went off to bed while his father and mother stayed downstairs discussing the farm. In bed, everything felt normal, but he had a dream that night in which he had shrunk and crept downstairs, out of the house, and to the egg under the light of the two moons.
Peculiarly, when he had looked down at his hands, they had disappeared and in their place were some red-strands. The desire to reach the egg was too great and he had forgotten all about it.
At last, the egg came into view and when he approached it, he realized the true nature of its size; or more precisely, his size. He had shrunk down now so much so that the egg was almost twice his height.
For a while, the egg remained motionless and so did Xiao Ji. It was like a grotesque Renaissance art-piece that marked a new beginning: A large chicken egg and the isolated nervous system of a young boy as the subjects that were lit by two moons.
It had been a while now and Xiao Ji, feeling a sense of disappointment in his heart, lay down in the soft grass at the foot of the egg and drifted off.
He would remember all of this the next morning when he hatched and looked at Anya's bewildered face and thus, it is this which is the beginning of the journey that follows a boy who obtained the Rocket Chicken system.
