hello, this story is a fan fiction of the underland chronicles. i'm really excited, because this story is a little different... I'm going to be using pieces and ideas from other fan fictions and changing them to my tastes (I'm not changing them cause don't like the way they turn out... mostly so that i'm not plainly copying them) so i hope you enjoy this underland chronicles fan fic_

Gregor felt the air blow through his dark brown hair, he lay on the roof of his farm house in virginia. once Gregor had gotten back from the underland, his mom made it her mission to get them packed up and out of their ASAP. gregor would be turning sixteen in two weeks. which meant luxa would be in a week, and Boots's birthday would be in two weeks and two days...Luxa, Gregor reached into his pocket, swerved his hand around and into wallet, and pulled out the picture. the picture of him and luxa sitting together in the museum in the underland. that had been the last time he had really been happy, that moment with her..."no" thought Gregor. anytime he thought about her, with her metallic silvery hair, purplish-blue veins, the pale skin, half smile, but most of all was the drop dead violet eyes. it always brought up emotions he just couldn't deal with. He already felt a tear drop slowly making it way down his face, Gregor put the photo in his pocket, and quickly wiped it away.

"Gregor, time for breakfast!... Gregor!?" he 'saw' his older sister with his echolocation, skidded to the edge of the of the roof, turned around jumped into his window, and opened the door

"i'm here ,i'm here" Gregor said, as he rolled his eyes.

"good, i thought you disappeared" lizzie said, gregor made a fake chuckle...he tried to act normal around his family, but they all knew to put in plainly, his life was empty without the underland, without the underland...without, her

"what's for breakfast" he asked, trying to break the awkward silence, as they walked down the stairs.

"you should know you chose it" lizzie replied with a smirk. Gregor slightly nodded his head, when they had been leave new-york his mom had been trying to cheer him up, one of the things she said, was that Gregor could chose three meals a weak, and even though this didn't make Gregor any happier, she stayed true to her word. the smell of nice, homemade, fluffy pancakes filled the air.

"mmm, those smell good" Gregor said as he sat down at the table. Boots, -Gregor's younger sister- already had a ring of syrup around her mouth.

"yes!" she exclaimed "there great" ,she said slowly eating her pancakes.

"Gregor, you'd better hurry up if your gonna make the bus" his father said with a smile, "better make sure not to get to messy though" he said with a notable wink, his father had this idea, that Gregor had a crush on his friend Angelina (or as she told her friends to call her Angi) which wasn't true, he'd also said he'd heard her talking to larry -Gregor's other friend- about how she liked Gregor, which Gregor hoped wasn't true because if it was, he wasn't looking forward to telling her, the feelings weren't shared He got up and gave a round of goodbyes, walked out the door and onto the bus. "hey" angi said, with a smile Gregor nodded in reply, "you've got syrup on your cheek" she chuckled, reaching up to wipe it away, before she could he quickly wiped it away himself. She looked away, just as larry sat down "hey" he said raising an eyebrow at angi "what's wrong?"

"huh, nothing" angi, quickly replied. The rest of the trip was silent, when they got to school they got of the bus and started for there classes. "see ya" angi and Gregor said in unison. His first class was with her, and larry had a different class. Gregor walked down the halls mindlessly making it to his class he sat in his seat next to angi, they slipped notes back trough out class

hey angi can i ask you a favor

sure

"well thats a start", he thought

there's this birthday present i need to get for a friend, she's a girl and i need your help

oh, okay yeah sure 1 tomorrow sound good

great!

yeah, thanks

Gregor was happy she'd help, cause he really needed it. the rest of class was boring. Angi left before him, Gregor started for the door standing up from his chair, and heard it, troy. Troy was the school bully for their grade. He usually tried to avoid him, but now he was messing with angi, and she was one of his best friends.

"hey, watcha doin" he said to her in a casual tone

angi however got right to the point "leave me alone troy"

"i think you need to be a little nicer" troy's gang was in a circle around her. Gregor moved two out of the way for angi to leave, she gave him a a look as if to say "thank you". As she started to leave, though Troy turned to Gregor "hey how about you mind your own bees wax"

Gregor didn't respond but started to turn to walk away "hey i'm talking to you" he took a swing at Gregor, and thats when it happened, the rager thing. He easily dodged it, but as he did, his wallet fell out of his pocket. Before he could pick it up troy had it. He started pulling the money out "you need to learn some respe-" thats when he pulled out the folded up photo and started to unfold it, gregor punched him in the gut before he could fully unfold it, and grabbed the photo and wallet, Gregor punched him right in the nose, as he put the photo in the wallet, troy fell to the ground. Gregor quickly walked off before anyone could say any thing, and went through the day like nothing had just happened

five hours later

Gregor lay on the roof just like that morning, trying to clear his head, today had been...alot. He heard a clattering on the later his uncle used to get up there, but was surprised to find angi peek her head over the top

"hey" she said as she started to walk over "i wanted t-" her foot slipped and she started to slide down, Gregor stuck out his hand to hers and, started to pull her back up, she quickly grabbed his shirt and pulled herself to him... okay ...umm...he awkwardly patted her on the back ,and turned forward so that she kind of had to get off, but he wasn't rude "so...what where you saying" he asked trying to break the silence "oh...umm" she looked down "i...i wanted to know what that picture was." she said looking back up to him with a concerned look "you protected it like a million bucks" he just sighed "Gregor, you don't have to...but if you need to know you can talk to me" she said. He looked out in the field, sighed again, and pulled out his wallet. He sliped the picture out and unfolded it. She looked at the picture for a moment, then lookedback up at him "who's that?" she said pointing at luxa

"her name was luxa" Gregor said

she shifted her weight to the side "was?" she questioned

"my mom wasn't very fond of her"

"oh, well...ooh were you guys...together?"

Gregor gave a slight nod, and put the picture up."hey, since i've got nothing else to do, why not look for that present now"

"oh...um, i cant...i...just remembered...i...i'm busy, but...uh...good luck, and...yeah" she quickly ran down the ladder

"she's acting weird " Gregor thought, and sighed "well, lets go look"

one hour later

Gregor walked through the shop, wondering which one to get, he saw a silver necklace with a blue stone, a gold heart locket, and a green one with a purple stone hmm, he marked out the silver one "well...yeah, locket it is." hewent up to the counter "hey can you shrink down this photo, and put it in this locket?" he said handing them the photo of him and luxa. He stared at it for a second, and then said "yeah, i think so...it'll be ready in a week and half." Gregor looked at the mans I.D tag, and noticed it said Howard, "thank you, Howard" he said, handed them the money, then walked out of the shop.
