Fanfiction: Fate Doesn't Come by Folded Paper

Prologue:

As I walked home from school I saw some kids playing a game with folded paper. Curious, I walked over to see what was going on. "What's going on?" I demanded. "Katie, haven't you heard?" My friend Jessi squealed. "Tara did a round of Fortune with Timmy, and the paper said she would get phone at 2:30 in two days, and the statement came true! Now lots of kids are playing Fortune with Timmy, hoping that they get a good statement. I'm just watching because I'm not going to take chances of getting a bad fortune. But you should totally do it!" I frowned. "I'm Katie Hager, and my fate doesn't want to be tossed around. I want to create my own life. Timmy can do what he wants, but he can't tell me what to do!" Jessi's eyes widened. Then she glared. "How dare you say that about my boyfriend? That boy is 18, and he is just awesome. You can go home now! I'm going to tell Timmy what you said about him, and he going to give you a good lecture!" I flinched. Jessi had gotten mad, but never this mad. I did what she told me to do. I went home.

When I got home, I threw my backpack onto the couch and went to my room to start on my homework. About half an hour later, my mom came in. "Hey, sweetie. Would you like a snack?" She held up a small plate of 5 cookies. "Sure." I replied. I figured if I was going to get beat up tomorrow, I may as well relax when I can. Then I thought about something. "Mom, can you get me a piece of paper?" "Sure. I'll be right back." While I waited, I thought of four random words in my head. Mom handed me a piece of paper. After she left, I ripped the paper into a square. Suddenly, lights flashed in my head. I stood up to get a drink of water, but I stumbled and fell. My head felt like it had been hit in the head with a rock and I became dizzy. Then someone appeared by me. He looked tall and elegant, like he was rich. Then he said, "My father has had it. I have had it. Now you have it. But beware, Kathryn Hager. No one can run from fate." Then the man faded. The pain in my head faded. The lights died down and stopped. I was terrified. What did that man mean?
