Destiny Drake's Journey
Prologue
It was a warm day in Ravenwood, Cyrus Drake's wife Morgan just gave birth to a beautiful baby girl. She had light brown hair like her father, before he shaved his head, and when she opened her eyes, they were an amber brown like her mother.
"What do you want to name her?" He asked Morgan curiously. "Destiny," Morgan said, holding the cooing baby. "She'll be destined for greatness." At the same time his brother Malistaire had a baby of his own. A girl with silver hair and yellow eyes by the name of Melissa.
Both babies had a happy life until Sylvia, Malistaire's wife and Melissa's mother, became very ill. After their death Malistaire went berserk and wanted to find a way to bring his wife back, so he took Melissa to his brother and left her with him, knowing that she would be safe from him.
Chapter One: Destiny
15 years later...
"UNCLE CYRUS!" A girl, fifteen years old, with light brown hair and amber brown eyes was woken up by her cousin's scream to her father and fell out of her bed to the floor. She sat up groggily and looked through the floor-to-ceiling window.
There was a huge crater where the Death School that her uncle ran used to be, and there were rumors around Ravenwood that Malistaire, her uncle, went berserk after his wife died. She barely remembers why he did it but knew about his past dedication to the school which still confused her.
She went to her closet to get her silver trimmed gold robe, to her shoe box to get her matching boots, and pulled her matching pointed hat of her headboard post. When she got downstairs she got a surprise of her life: Headmaster Ambrose was waiting with her father and her cousin Melissa.
Melissa looked like she was in mid-sentence or mid-yelling as she stared wide-eyed at the Headmaster. "Destiny Drake," Ambrose said while walking up to her, ignoring the look Melissa was giving him. "You were chosen to be the Savior of the Spiral."
Now Destiny, Melissa, and even Cyrus were shocked at what he said. "Savior?" She asked confused. "Your uncle is trying to rule the Spiral," Ambrose said, showing a portal of what damage Malistaire has already done. "We need your help to stop him."
"Wait," Destiny said, waving her hands in front of her. "Melissa is his daughter, so why wasn't she chosen too?" Ambrose looked from her to Melissa and back again. "Melissa is gonna try to get information from him while helping the other wizards," He said quietly. "She said that it was her only chance to reconnect with her father."
After that he teleported them to his tower where Gamma was waiting. "Nice to see you Destiny," Gamma said while flapping his wings. "Here is everything you need." She got a wand, a deck of cards, and a spellbook. "Thanks." She said, blushing a little.
When she went outside she turned to the Ravenwood tunnel to get her first spell. She knows she's a Balance wizard so she tried to find the Balance teacher. She went past the Storm and Ice schools, and when she went past the Fire School she saw a boy wearing a jester hat, robe, and boots(sorry don't know the colors) with shaggy yet spiky black hair and green eyes standing in front of the crater.
"You looking for the Death School?" He asked calmly. She was too nervous to say a thing so she shook her head. "Well this is where it used to be-" She raised her hand to stop him from saying anymore. "I already know that my uncle went berserk," She said, surprising the boy. "So I don't need a repeat."
"Sorry," He said, blushing slightly in either embarrassment or infatuation. "You're Destiny Drake right?" She nodded still a little nervous. "I'm Malorn AshThorn, the temporarily teacher for the Death School." She saw him a lot since she wasn't allowed to leave Ravenwood and developed a crush on him.
"Do you know where the Balance School is?" She asked not nervous anymore. Malorn led her to a dog wearing a suit and a top hat holding a cane with a briefcase next to him. "Oh." She said as she mentally face palmed. "Hello Miss Drake!" Arthur Whethersfield shouted, making a couple students look in their direction.
"Please don't call me 'Miss'," She slightly pleaded as the others finally looked away and went back to their own businesses. "I'm not an adult yet, just Destiny is fine." A few minutes later she mastered the spell 'Scarab' until a furious voice shook the ground.
"I WILL NOT ALLOW MY DAUGHTER TO DESTROY HER UNCLE!" 'Uh oh!' She thought as she went into the Myth Tower, pulled her father's portrait off the hook, pushed the hidden button, and was teleported to the hidden house island floating above the Myth School.
She walked up to the house and opened the door to see her furious father, an understanding Headmaster, and a very pale, shaking Melissa. "What happened and can someone catch Mel before she faints?" She asked with an annoyed look on her face as she pointed to her now fainting cousin.
"Ambrose wants to use you as a weapon to end your uncle," Cyrus said as he stepped towards her. "And I won't allow it!" He quickly summoned a troll to catch Melissa and laid her on the couch before disappearing back into the card.
"She needs her training if she's gonna-" "I won't allow it! She is-" "How about you let me talk before you two decide my future!" She interrupted the two men angrily as she accidentally summoned- a Blood Bat.
The two men looked at it shocked as it flew around before turning into energy and going back into her. "A Balance and Myth wizard!" Ambrose said as he scratched his beard. "The primary school as Balance and the secondary school as Myth! Slightly common but no teacher had a child with their school as a secondary!"
"Okay we're going to the Commons if anyone needs me." She said as Melissa woke up and dragged her out of the house before teleporting to the Commons. "Well that could've gone better." Ambrose said as he and Cyrus stared at the open door.
Sorry if the prologue was short, wrote most of it five or four years ago, forgot about it, and them remembered and finished while rewriting a bit of it.
