Hey I made this before the other story I planned on because I got so much inspiration for a story like this that I had to get it down. So here it is.
Chapter 1
The wish
I opened the door and saw a spotless room, my room. I looked around and saw the camouflage bed-spread on my double bed, i looked at the writing desk and saw the whole ranger's apprentice series on my desk.
I looked around to see my bookshelf with both the Classics and the new series, i had withering height, Jane Eyre and i even had Romeo and Juliet. I also had the Twilight series, and the house of night, I also had the Harry Potter series. I walked to my oak writing table and took the books from the desk to my book shelf, I put them in order, from the first to the last. I had been waiting for the Emperor of Nihon-Ja and though about how we here in Europe couldn't buy it yet. I walked to my night stand and looked at my knife set, I had it on my nightstand just like normal rangers.
My friend Adriana was a true RA fan, she couldn't think about anything else, although she was on fanfic writing stories about how she wanted to make the RA characters come to our world or that she lives in their world and that they have computers and electronics.
I liked Araluen, there were less fight because there were less means of using, no guns, no cuber-bullying. I walked over to the mirror and looked at myself.
A quite average height girl at the age of 17, who had long brown hair, I had just cut it but my hair was still longer than my shoulders, I had quite the average amount of hair too, I hadn't little nor I had much. I was a average girl, I was no nerd who read and learnt everything but neither was I a girl who used time on make-up. I had only used make-up two times before on a prom and my sweet sixteen.
But I was really fast, I did horseback-riding and was good at archery, and I had two strange talents, when I got angry I could make things move. I had closed some doors because I had been angry at my brother and I had gotten frustrated once because my sandcastle wouldn't work and then I had shaped the sand in a shape I couldn't have done with my hands. I was something like what Roald Dahls Matilda could do. But my second talent was throwing things and making them hit, first I had thought it was part of my first talent. But it was like the rangers when throwing their knives.
I also had a special bond with animals, horses especially. On horseback-riding I always rode a large black horse called Nightmare. She was a girl and was the largest in the stables. I had loved her since the first time I rode. She had been brought in and no one had been able to ride her, until I was assigned to care for her. She had suddenly turned from a wild horse into the most polite horse I had ever seen.
With these skills I would make a good ranger, but I didn't live in their time nor in their world.
I sat down behind my writing desk and started on my Geography homework, I had to learn all Africa's countries, their location, population and capital. I would have to study for a long time.
But to my surprise I had finished after twenty minutes. I turned on my TV and watched a reprise of a Pretty Little Liars episode. I shrieked when that car hit that blonde girl and looked away, that was when I noticed how dark it was. I looked at my alarm clock and saw it was 22:22, I quickly knocked on my desk and wished for going to Araluen. It was just something superstitious but I just did it. Then I shut off the TV and went to bed, I dreamt something really strange that night. I dreamt of waking up in Araluen, then I abruptly woke up because my Alarm went off.
"Just gonna stand there and watch me burn." Rihanna said on my alarm. I grinned and jumped out of bed, stupid superstitious me. I looked at the clock and saw it was 11:10, that was when my Alarm went off every weekend. Bip bip. And it was 11:11 I again knocked on my desk and wished for Araluen.
Then I looked at my calendar and saw I had a meeting with Adriana. She would go with me to the archery trainings, she was on it too although I was better than her, she had brought me too it. She had made me sign up, but I had not regretted that decision yet. I walked over to the shower and dressed in some jeans and a t-shirt.
I walked out and there stood a red Ferrari, her dad was freaking rich. I ran over and sat in the back seat. I looked at Adriana, she was wearing a skirt with tights. She also wore a singlet with a small leather jacket. And I saw her heals too. Oh god she was going to archery training with pumps. I said it to her and she threw her red hair back in her neck. She had some small freckles too, she reminded me of Ginny in the Harry Potter series. We chatted for some time, about boys, college and school And then I just randomly asked Adriana
"You know in Araluen. Do they speak English?"
"Yes Sam. I asked John Flanagan once and he said so." my friend replied. I laughed, she was a fan, she had gotten her dad to pay for a meeting with John Flanagan. In that way I envied her.
I grinned we babbled away about school and boys and how we had almost finished the school year, we had just finished the exams yesterday and I was far too eager for holidays to come. Then we arrived at the archery court. Well, more just a long piece of grass with some targets. We stood there, she on the lane beside me. I shot three arrows really quick although it wasn't as quick as the rangers would do it, but I could only practice every weekend. I grinned at Adriana's poor skills, she was just a fed up girl who happened to be my best friend since first grade.
Shes not fullfilled her dream yet maybe she would, please review. It's what keeps me going. Partly. Never mind.
