Save Me! Butterscotch
I am seriously mad at Tsumi and Lala right now. I mean come on! Courtney and I found the pearl, so we should get to keep it! They claim that they're wizards or whatever, but I don't care! I will never believe them in a million years! OK so here's what happened today…
Courtney and I were at my brother's baseball game, and we were getting bored. So, we decided to explore. The field is half-way surrounded by trees anyway, so I knew we would find something.
"Panda! I found a path over here!"
I rushed over. "I don't think we should go down there…"
"This is what we were looking for, right?"
I sighed. "I guess so, but-"
"C'mon!"
She ran down the path and I followed. When we got there, I there was a patch of ivy. Courtney stood on top of a log to see better.
"There's something there!" she said excitedly. "I'm going in to get it!"
"Courtney, wait! There might be poison ivy in there!"
She just shrugged. "I'll risk it."
She walked into the ivy and picked up a really long dandelion. It was in the stage where you could blow on it, and she picked a moth off of it.
I ran to the other side of the patch of ivy so I could see her better.
"It's a moth. And it's alive." She dropped it on the ground. "Or not."
She kept walking, and eventually saw what she was looking for.
"It's a pearl! And it's pink!" she exclaimed.
"Wow! Bring it over here!"
She came over to where I was standing. We stared at the pearl.
Just then, two people walked over. As they got closer I could see that it was a girl and a guy.
"There it is!" exclaimed the girl. "The crystal pearl! We found it!"
"You mean this?" I asked them.
"Um, DUH!" the girl said.
"This is ours! We found it!"
"I found it," said Courtney.
"But we were looking for it! Right, Tsumi?"
"Mhm"
"Well too bad! We found it first!"
"Wahhhhhhhh! Tsumi, do something!"
"I can't. They didn't try to attack us. They are obviously not examinees"
"Wahhhhhhhhh! But they're humans, how can they keep it? Everyone will try to attack them!"
I listened to their conversation, but it was way too confusing. Finally I said something.
" Um, excuse me, but who are you?"
"oh, I'm Lala and this is my brother, Tsumi!" she replied. "We are trying to complete the sorcerer exam. You see, we are sorcerers in training, and if we complete the exam then we will be full sorcerers! Every year the council drops an item called the crystal pearl," she motioned towards Courtney, "somewhere into the human world. Last year it was in Japan, and some girl named Nina swallowed it! That year was really the strangest year out of all of them because when they removed the pearl from Nina's body it became a living object and tried to kill of the entire planet! But this year we will be ok as long as no one swallows it. Anyway, the exam ends after Christmas, and that's why we need the pearl. We've been looking for it for a week now! Anything to add, Tsumi?"
OK did they seriously think I was going to believe them? But I had a feeling they weren't finished yet, and I was right.
"oh, well whoever has the pearl at the end of the test becomes a full sorcerer. We are a team, and there are many other teams looking for the pearl, so it would be nice if we could have the pearl now." He flashed a somewhat friendly smile, like he was trying to be polite. It wasn't working.
"Yeah, so gimme it!" the girl shouted at us.
I was NOT about to give in.
"oh, come on! You don't really think we're going to believe you, do you? The pearl is ours."
"Wahhh! Tsumi, destroy her!"
"I can't just destroy people you know."
"ooh, Tsumi has a crush!" she smirked.
"Lala, you have to settle down. We will get the pearl, but im not going to destroy them."
I heard a whistle in the background. "We have to go! C'mon, Courtney!" we ran back up the path to the game, leaving the two so called 'wizards' in the dust.
