Well, hello there faithful reader, and to those eight who read my last story, welcome back. This is a knock off of Harry Potter, Dungeons & Dragons, and real life, so please enjoy.
I The OrderThis story is set in the real life town of Blackstone, Massachusetts, which borders Rhode Island. Our Characters house is on Mill River Road, which was the closest to the Rhode Island town of Woonsocket. Our character's house was the first on the street, Stuck between Farm Street Motors, and The Roast house at the back. On the other side of his street, was a freight yard, at the end of his street, was an old foundry, and a pond and a small lake. Who is our main character? His name is Shawn Laren, a 15-year-old boy, who had taken a liking to Dungeons and Dragons.
One night, he came home from his girlfriend's and meandered through the kitchen, dining room, and stopped in the doorway to the living room where he found his mother, watching a big screen TV from a leather recliner. His mother was a fairly tall, and plump woman, with dirty blonde, and curly hair.
"Can you empty the dishwasher for me?" His mother asked in a delighted tone.
"Sure." Shawn said as he turned around to go do as he was told.
Five minutes later his mother got up and saw him walking towards the tall side cabinet, with a few big bowls. His mother closed the dishwasher so she could get by, and decided to clean the countertops. Shawn stopped, set the bowls down one the counter, and open the door to the tall cabinet.
"Mom, wouldn't it be cool if magic was real?" He said before picking up a bowl and putting it in the bottom of the tall cabinet.
"Well, life would be very different." She said while squishing an ant.
"At the rate my dreams are going, I hope it's real." Shawn said as he got back up and all the dishes were now away.
"That's all you can do is hope, because it isn't real" She said as Shawn walked up the stairs.
Shawn went up into his room, which was at the front of the house, it had a full bed, an L-shaped desk, a curtained closet, which contained a short, but wide dresser, a TV on his wall, and some shelves.
He grabbed his laptop, and decided to go look for some Harry Potter stuff, seemings that he had finished Deathly Hallows. After a couple of minutes of surfing he came upon a site that sold handcrafted wands, Whirlwood Magic Wands. He looked at their wands, and one caught his eye, The Death Eater. He read the description "Join the dark side". He liked the wand so much, that he would save all his money to get it.
To spend time not working, he would look around for more magic stuff, and even translate spells from Dungeons & Dragons into German, because Germany always held a special place in his heart. He did this, so he would have more spells to work with, instead of only the few Harry Potter spells.
Finally, the day had come. After countless days of working his ass off, after having to cut the grass at least five times, he would finally ask his mother to buy that wand offline for him. Shawn woke up on Monday, ready to ask his mother to buy the wand for him; it was twelve when he woke up. Shawn hurriedly got dressed, and ran down the stairs, to find that his mom was gone! He ran to the dining room and looked at the answering machine on a small table underneath an elaborate wood clock. One message. Shawn pushed the button and listened.
"One new message. Message one." The Machine chimed.
"Hi Shawn, it's mom, I'm out with Jen right now, I should be back for four, bye." His mothers voice ended and the machine's female voice picked up.
" Eleven thirty, end of messages."
How could he be so stupid, of course his mother was out with Jen! Jen was the eldest sister, who had a husband, Gary, and a one-year-old son, Connor. So now he had about three hours before mom got home, and then half and hour between his mom being home, and when she left for work.
So, as to fill up those ours of his mother's absence, he watched all of his recorded shows, Mind of Mencia, Reno 911, Avatar, and Mythbusters. Then finally, someone walked through the door.
It was his mother, with a huge bundle of groceries. Shawn sped by her, and flew to her SUV to empty out the rest of the bounty, and quickly put it away. As he did so, he saw many of his favorite foods, Hot Pockets, Ham, Rice Crispies, and of course popcorn.
Shawn quickly finished his job and ran up the stairs to grab hi laptop. The door to his room flew open, as he followed. He jumped onto his bed, turned on his laptop, and signed. He calmly walked back down stairs (stopping to do a few things along the way), and ambushed his mother.
"Mommy, can you order this for me?" Shawn asked in a sweet tone.
His mother took the laptop, and looked at the picture of the wand.
"A wand?" She inquired, "It's to expensive."
"I have the money up in my room!" Shawn said hurriedly. With that, he ran back upstairs, into his room, and disappeared behind the black curtains of his closet. He reemerged with seventy-five dollars. He counted, recounted, and counted again; he had the exact amount for the wand. He ran back down downstairs and handed his mother the money.
"Alright" She said with a twinge of bitter distaste.
Ten minutes later, Shawn's mother left for work. He had done it. His wand was on the way, the order was complete.
