Sucked into Arcadia: Book 1 Recumen and Grendel

by Fantasynator

I get sucked into Arcadia after an odd incident, and as it turns out, there's a bunch of whole new people, and some want to kill me! Along with the normal group of people from the game, and a bunch of new party members, can I survive?

1. IT'S CUPIL!

Me: Vyse, do the disclaimer.

Vyse: He dosen't own anything except Dylan, and his original characters...And why am I doing this?

Me: Because you have to. And here's the fanfic.

It had been another hard day at private school, with lots of work, lots of studying, and A LOT of homework. I had gotten detention, so I had to walk home, a very, VERY long walk. As always, my mom would be pissed with my detention. When I was half-way through the forest pathway that leads to my house, I saw a little streak of silver cross in front of me, and crash into the rock wall beside me.

Thinking it was just a bug or something, I started to walk on, but then the silver streak flew up, and into me, knocking me over. When my head stopped spinning from hitting a branch, I tried to lift myself up, but found that I was face to face with Cupil from Skies of Arcadia.

---

I almost screamed, but then I realized that no one would hear me. Cupil knocked me down again, with a playful look on it's face. After two more knocking downs, I finally collected myself and got up. Cupil flew up a path that I had never noticed before. "Cupil from Skies of Arcadia! What the hell is that thing doing here!" I followed it, and it lead me to a small pond, that, like the path that lead to it, I had never seen before. "Hm...it dissapeared..."

I undid my tie, as that part of my school uniform was uncomfortable, then I unbuttoned the first two buttons on my white shirt. I ruffled my brown, curly hair a bit, and put my tie in my pants pocket. 'Be very, very quiet,' I thought, 'We're hunting Cupils.'

After a while, my eyes started to close, and I almost fell asleep before I cought myself. "Ugh...I'd better get home...It's already 4: 30." I stood up and stretched, but then something hit me in the back, knocking me forward.

I fell face first into the water, screaming "CRAAAAAAPPPP!" the entire way down.

----

When I hit the water, it didn't feel hot, or cold. How odd...And even odder, I wasn't wet at all. This started to freak me out a bit, but then I saw a light at the bottom of the pond, which looked like gold or silver. I swam down to get it, and when I touched it, everything went black.

Yes, I realize that the first chapter was crap. It will get better.

Yes, there is a quicker, forest path that leads to my house. And it's still about 4 miles. ;; I prefer the bus, but when I have detention, I have to walk. Yay.
