Chapter 1
He takes a big breath gasping for air. He had been running for a while now. Never able to turn his back always afraid. Then, he woke up. Another nightmare, he had been having them a lot lately. He thought they meant nothing, but soon he would realize they meant a lot more, and so I start my story of an average boy who would soon find out that he and his best friends would be part of something very important.
* * * Tomorrow at school he told his closest friend about what had happened and his friend told him that he too had been having similar reoccurring nightmares.
At recess they told their other friends. "I'm telling you they mean something Jared" the friend who had also been having nightmares "Tyler I'm telling you it is just a coincidence that we have been having these dreams." Jared said. I said, "look we'll discuss it when I come over tonight." "YES!" they all exclaimed. "WE WANT TO GET BACK TO OUR RECESS!" "Fine fine." I told them. "But something is up and I will find out what.", I say determinedly. "Well laterz I have something to take care of." I say grinning. "And Jared don't forget what I told you, anything can happen.
When I got to Jared's I said, "Sup?" "Nothing much", he replied. "Did you really walk again?" "Yah." I replied, "What of it?" "Oh nothing nothing." "Now lets play Halo Reach!" he exclaimed. I said, "First things first" "We need to talk about these dreams." "First of all I need you to tell me what happened in your dream."
"Before I tell you, you tell me what you were up to at recess." He demands.
"Oh yah." I say grinning from ear to ear. " Calie got what she deserved. I took some chemicals from science, poured them into her backpack, and set I timer for a patch to break and release them into contact. Lets just say she will have a bad rash and smell bad for about three weeks. Now for those nightmares."
"Ok ok" he says. "Wow you actually did that. Oh well back onto the topic, I was running from something but I was afraid to look back. I was also following a light. I think it was a girl. With blond hair. That's all I know, for now." "Yours?"
`"The exact same thing." I say with amazement.
"Wow. I guess you were right then." he says. As if ashamed.
"LOOK!" I say looking at the window. I had seen a glint of gold in the field near his house. I say, "Come on lets follow it"
"Yah come on lets go."
And we run, desperately trying to catch up to it. We follow it into the woods and I remember the seen from my dream and Jared and I say in unison, "Run."
And we ran and ran until we came to a small clearing. Then we see the person we had seen clearly for the first time. Ocean blue eyes, bleach blond hair, a material we had no idea what material white shirt that looked hand made, jeans, barefoot, a dagger at her side a sword at her back, and two pure gold bracelets, one on each wrist.
Then for the first time she spoke. "Hello I have been waiting for you two. We have a lot to discuss. My name is Elizabeth." As soon as she said this a figure appeared an she said, "Ah sister you are late."
"Yah, whatever. Sooo these are the two we were sent to get?" The other girl said. She wore a black shirt made out of the same strange material her sisters was made of, blue jeans, brownish-black hair, brown eyes, and no shoes. Again bazaar.
Jared's appearance on the other hand was regular, red and white striped shirt, brown eyes, brown sandals, blue jeans, and brown hair.
My attire was blue jeans (what's with the jeans?), bleach blond hair, aquamarine eyes, a system of a down (soad) tee-shirt ( can't see through my hoodie), and a white hoodie with lines of red, black, and blue with hood up.
"Oh they're not bad, I mean they could keep up with me." ,Elizabeth said.
"Not that bad? They don't even have a sword, knife, axe, or a hammer."
"Ha I wish." ,I said. "Kids these days don't normally carry weapons."
"Yah, where have you been." ,Jared said.
"Wow." they said. "You honestly don't know what you are do you?"
"We are human!" ,we exclaimed.
"No you are both more than that. You are heroes. Heroes have been around forever. Saving lives and turning evil, even to modern day. And you two are heroes, you have the golden aura of a hero." ,Elizabeth told us.
We stare wide eyed and open mouthed at her.
"Ok they don't have any weapons so give them a weapon." ,her sister says.
What do you think you would like to fight with?" Elizabeth asks me.
"A straight edge sword" ,I said .
"How about you?" ,She asks Jared.
"Double swords a smaller and bigger one."
Then suddenly they toss us our weapons and sheathes.
"Ok now lets get going." ,Elizabeth said.
"Where?", "The mall" ,Elizabeth answers. * * *
