Prologue
It was a very warm and sunny day as a bus were being drove in the middle of the road. The bus was full of children. They were nearly twenty of them, all screaming and shouting. The teachers, all whom were sitting at the front had long given up on trying to shush the children. Instead they simply sat at the front of the bus at wished for the journey to be over soon.
The noise was terrific for all the children were making as much noise as they could while the bus itself seemed to be making ever more noise. A huge rattling sound that emanated from its engine and a rattling sound that came from the windows and framework.
The bus was trundling along at a good speed of fifty miles an hour when the incident happened. It's wasn't a crash or at least it wasn't a crash in a traditional sense. In most crashes their are two or more vehicles involved. In this crash there was only one.
The bus stopped suddenly as if it had hit a wall. Everyone was flung forward but was caught by the seat belts which the teachers had made them wear. Ironically the teachers themselves were not wearing seat belts and were flung forward smashing into the windscreen and slumping at the bottom of it.
Fortunately none of the young children saw this for they were much more focused on looking out on the window at the fading land. The land wasn't fading into the distance instead it appeared to be fading out of existence. It seemed to go grey then it went transparent and then vanished.
As soon as it vanished a new land began to appear. Only it worked in reverse of the disappearance of the first land. Even as the new land began to appear the bus and the injured teachers began to fade leaving only the twenty young children sitting in thin air as their bus vanished.
The children who had been sitting nearly a meter in the air now dropped to the ground gently, some unknown power cushioning them while they fell to the ground. The children rub their backs, some their butt as they tried to stand up. Some of them looked around their surrounding as he saw the unfamiliar land.
One child asked in a quiet and scared voice where they where they were and they all just shrugged for not one of them knew the all started to walk around still together as they try to look for other people aside from them. They all knew that their teachers are not here to help nor guide them and they're all on their own.
The children were scared, they don't know what should they do nor what will happen to them. One child stopped and looked at his friends and companions all of whom appeared to be terrified. It was understandable considering that the oldest of them was mere nine years of age.
"Guys, I know how you feel, just a while ago, we're having fun on the bus not caring for whatever the teachers were saying from us. Then just a snap we're suddenly standing in an unfamiliar land, without our teachers nor anyone we know except the twenty of us." the boy said.
The other children looked at each other then back to the boy as they let him continue to talk.
"What I'm saying is, instead of being scared and panicking we should look at our situation and plan out what should we do next." he said.
The others suddenly brighten up and nods as they agree on him.
The children listened to his little speech and almost without realizing it every one of them subconsciously decided that he was the little groups leader.
They formed up behind as they walked, all but two. These two, one boy and one girl, hung back from the main group and although they took the same path they stay well behind the rest of their friends. They themselves didn't know why, just that something inside of them was telling them not to stick with the rest of the group, so they didn't.
Eventually the group stopped, they had walked all day and now it was night time. They were tired from the long walk yet they had no food to eat so they simply lay down as a group with their new leader at the center of their little huddle. Slowly but surely they went to sleep, one person at a time until the whole group lay sleeping.
Even as this occurred the two children who had hung back from the group were continued to trek onwards, not stopping for anything more that a few minutes breather every now and again.
They walked and they walked neither of them really noticing frightening the environment surrounding them was, how the trees appeared to loom over them, how the woods rang out with the sounds of animals, how the noises of the day had died away to be replace by the much scarier noises of the night.
Despite all this they walked on and on until just as the sun was coming up over the horizon they found a clearing in the forest through which they had been walking. Lying asleep in the clearing where two of the most beautiful creatures that the children had ever seen. One was a Phoenix of pure gold flame while the other was a Phoenix of pure black flame.
