Chapter 1
Dad pushed the rock in place, parting them forever
3 Years Later
Gregor has been away from Underland for nearly 4 years. He greatly misses Luxa and his friend from the day they got parted to now."Gregor! Can you go and fix the pipe again?" Mum yelled.
"Okay" Gregor yelled.
His sister, Boots and Lizzie were playing outside. Gregor was carrying tools to the pipe until he saw this letter on the ground.
"How on earth did this get here?" Gregor thought.
As Gregor opened it up he began to read it:
In the hidden darkness
A shadow is lurking
As time flies by, they will raise
As they step, a light is gone
As they move, another light is gone
The warrior will descend
But the warrior's light will drain
Slowly and slowly
Once he falls
It will be the end of the time
Or it won't be the end of the time
"Is this a prophecy? Guess it is. But if it's here then. There must be a hole! And it doesn't make sense."
"Lizzie! Come!"
"What is is Gregor?"
"Look at this Lizzie." Gregor said
As Lizzie looked through the prophecy, she asked where it came.
"I don't where it is. We should look around the area!"
"Gregor! Look at this! A hole." Boots said while looking at it
"But but it's impossible! We are thousand of miles far away from New York." Gregor said.
"But if you said Underland is few miles underground then if you shrink the globe to the size of Underland then every steps are bigger there than here! Much bigger steps!"
"I don't remember a lot but I think Dead Land is at the bottom of the Underland map and it takes maybe few minutes or hours to reach there!" Lizzie calculating the scale of Underland.
"And if the Underland is smaller, then there is a possibility that this hole leads to the Underland" Gregor said.
"Should we ask Dad?" Lizzy asking.
"Yea we should" Gregor answered
As Gregor finished asking his Dad, his Dad finally agreed. But Gregor needed something. He needed a parachute to slow down falling as he thinks the will be no currents. He went inside the garage and remembered when his dad used a parachute for something when he was still a science teacher.
"Lizzie, Boots we will jump down the hole and I brought a parachute packed in case there are no currents. Hold on to me."
"Okay" Lizzie and Boots said in unison.
Gregor began to count to 1 and as soon as he hit 1 he jumped down. He started using echolocation when it went dark to open the parachute in a safe distance. The parachute failed to open. Now he is falling to death until something hit him hard. He grabbed hold of it instantly without thinking. Gregor landed on a bat. The bat is trying to get Gregor off until Lizzie shouted "Gregor!"
Everything stopped. The bats began to descend and then Gregor realized, he is riding on Aurora.
"What is happening?" Gregor asked
" Can't tell you right now." Aurora answered
Aurora started diving. Faster than what he had imagined. Aurora dived so fast, like 20 times her original speed. Gregor spotted Luxa and in a split second, Luxa was up on Aurora.
"Luxa tell me what is happening!"
"Gregor why are you back? I thought you were in Virginia!"
"I'll tell my story later. Right now I need to know what is going on!" Gregor said
