Crossing Worlds
Chapter 1
Today was another day at school.
The same old people who appeared in the cafeteria and the hustle and bustle for breakfast continued. People came and went while others held conversations. It was just another day of the same old things over and over. The same old classes. The same old teachers. The same old, same old . . .
What I wasn't expecting was a rude awakening.
During first period there was the sound of people screaming and the chink of metal. There was even the sound of evil laughter.
Everyone in the classroom seemed ready to jump out of the windows. To me, I was curious as to know what was going on.
I rushed out of the classroom and out into the hall to glimpse a dark clothed figure.
His attire I recognized as none other then Lynx. What was he doing here? I didn't know but I was going to find out. The door to the classroom I ran out of slammed behind me, catching Lynx's attention.
Lynx turned around and saw me. He smiled.
"Aww! More target practice. Good!" Lynx spoke.
Raising his weapon he charged at me. I dodged while growling.
We were now facing one another. Instead of a menacing face he seemed curious. To make it more evident he raised his eyebrow.
"What are you doing?" Lynx asked.
"Well!" I stopped my growling and blushed.
Lynx was laughing. He seemed to have a hard time keeping it discrete.
"Don't stop on my account. Besides . . ."
He was about to say more but musical laughter sounded from the end of the hall. Harle appeared.
"I have an idea. Why don't you come with me. You're the only amusement I'll have besides Harle. So what do you say?" Lynx implied.
"Oh! Come now? I'm not that amusing now, am I?"
"I don't have to take you with me, if I don't want to!"
"Of course I want to come! I would have to be real stupid not to say, yes."
"Are you absolutely sure?"
"Yes!"
Lynx put his right hand on my left shoulder. Harle put her left hand on right shoulder.
Are bodies glowed an eerie, blue light. My vision began to fade as me and the others dissappeared from the world, I would finally leave behind.
"Tasha! Taasshhaa!"
The sound of a voice both kind and malicious
taunted me.
"Tasha! Darling please listen to me. I have decided
to give you a choice. You are right now headed to
a strange and dangerous environment. I have given
you a choice to be whatever form you like. Heed well
these words, for whatever you choose . . .be wise
with your choice."
"I want to be a demi-human, but I can't think of one
I would like."
"Choose wisely, dear child."
"Would it be to hard to ask for a picture of
what I would look like."
"Very well . . ."
My eye's were opened. I was looking in a mirror.
The mirror was a plain body length mirror. A simple
mirror was all it was.
"demi-human black dragon!" I called out.
I saw in the mirror my body change. Beautiful
black wings adorned my back. My scaly body
had a purple-black shine that made the effect
most interesting. But! I wasn't satisfied . . .
"demi-human Lynx-Tiger cat!" I yelled.
The mirror swirled with color. So many colors
that I began to feel dizzy.
I fainted . . .
When I awoke . . . things seemed brighter
and . . .
I was indeed different. I had claws and fur and, and . . .
I had stripes like a tiger. My mind was racing now.
As my mind raced I felt Lynx's hand and Harle's
hand's on my shoulder.
Had my choice been made?
I had only one thing left to do and that was to keep going no matter what. No matter how hard the obstacles turned out to be, I would triumph. Who knew what lay ahead? I sure didn't . . .
