The Fellowship of the Royal Four
I so cannot believe I'm here, thought Isabel Evans as she walked into the gypsy's caravan. It had a sour smell of rotted apples and cinnamon that made her feel sick. She looked at her brother, Max, briefly to find that he was feeling as uncomfortable as she was. Michael Guerin on the other hand seemed to be quite amused by the idea that he was walking into an old ladies home that was pretty much going to define their future. All the way to this gypsy van, Tess Harding had been complaining that this would be a waste of time and now she was eagerly approaching the lady as a child walking towards an ice cream truck.
A withering old lady sat at a round table and motioned with her finger for them to step forward and take a seat.
"I see you have come here to find what your future holds" she stated in a scratchy metallic tone.
"Wow, she's good," said Max, clearly impressed.
"Actually I rang her up before we got here to tell her we were coming" said Isabel flatly.
"Um…I would really like to know if I'll graduate my senior year" asked Michael, unsure of himself.
"Sure, watch into this crystal ball." The old hag purred. Tess snorted.
"Crystal ball… wow!" Isabel sarcastically said.
"Look, do you wanna know your future or not?!" she snapped.
Obediently, they stared into the ball. A strange streak of light flashed before their eyes. They all blinked.
"is that it?" Max asked the gypsy.
But as they looked up there was no gypsy to be found. No trace of her was left. Hell even the van was gone, they were sitting on tree stumps in a forest.
