Destinies Fulfilled
=====================
Merton was hanging out on the lair about to read a book, which he got off of e-bay. He had bid and won the book a month ago, but somehow the mail was very late with it. Merton was exited when he finally got it, shutting himself in to be able to read all he could right away.
He stretched out on a chair and looked at the cover of his latest possession. The title was obscure, "Act now and take hold of life: An Anthology of Spells", But Merton figured that eventually the title would be explained as he read on.
He opened to the introduction and read aloud:
"The spells and techniques described in this book
are to be used under the complete understanding that
it is you who bears the responsibilities of your
actions. Many of these spells have very dangerous
reactions, and as you go on through this book
remember that we do not in most cases offer the
counter spells needed. Make sure that you truly
desire the outcome before you perform the spell."
Merton though that it was a rather strange introduction, but he figured it was to add to the mystic air surrounding it. He spent about two hours reading the book, the spells and rituals becoming more and more gruesome and dangerous. Merton was about to put the book down when a heading caught his attention:
"Forced Destiny: Turn time to fulfill your destiny."
Being enamored with the idea of knowing what he was meant to do, he read the information provided to him.
"This spell is particularly easy to perform and
has a very little side effects. Theo only thing
to keep in mind is that since it involves time
and time travel you have to be careful not to
run into any peril. If you should die, your
present and future past will also die.
Take a pint of rosemary water and place it into
a clear glass bottle. Place into the water a few
strands of hair and seal the bottle, preferably
with a cork. Go to an open area and chant three
times the following:
Chronos, master of time I beseech of thee
enable me to fulfill my destiny.
carry me to the place and time
where I am truly meant to shine.
After chanting, brace yourself for a bumpy ride."
Merton was relieved that the spell was so simple, and yet so meaningful. He thought about what his destiny might be, and how nice it would be to get a sneak peak. A mischievous look came over his eyes.
'Well, my destiny is my own after all' Merton thought to himself. With a quick jerk, he rushed to the phone and dialed the number by memory. After a few rings Tommy picked up, sounding rather groggy.
"'ello?"
"Tommy! This is Merton, listen, can you call Lori and meet me at the lair in about an hour?"
"Merton! What's the deal, its one o'clock in the morning? Cant this wait?"
"Trust me Tommy, you will want to see this. Can you call Lori and meet me here please?"
"Merton! *grumble* Fine, Ill see you in an hour." Tommy told Merton and hung up, much more louder than Merton expected. He shrugged and smiled rushing about the Lair getting everything together.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
An hour passed much more slowly than Merton wanted. He was pacing restlessly about his lair waiting for his friends to finally show up. He was so absorbed in his impatience that he did not notice Tommy and Lori walk in.
"Ahem! Merton, were here. This had better be good or I'm going to kick your butt for waking me up this late." Lori grumbled at Merton. Merton turned around and gave his friends a big smile.
"Listen, I just found this spell that might interest you both" Merton stated excitedly.
"God, not again! Merton, haven't you learned anything about your spells? They always cause more problems than they are worth." Tommy growled at Merton.
Merton felt rather insulted at this comment but decided that it was ok, after all, it was one am.
"My aren't you a happy bunch. *this caused both Tommy and Lori to give Merton very nasty looks* Right heh heh. Moving on. The beauty of this spell is that its so simple that there's no way to mess it up. Here *he threw the book to his friends* take a look, even you have got to admit, this would be a synch."
Tommy and Lori read the page that Merton had book marked, their expression growing more and more incredulous. Finally Tommy cleared his throat and looked at Merton.
"No offence buddy, but wouldn't this be a bad thing to try."
"No, you're not thinking. We are young now, our destinies are not to be fulfilled until much later, we cant change history this time, there is no history yet. Nothing bad can come of it. Besides, wouldn't it be cool to see what we were put on this earth for? Think about it, we get to see what we will do, with no danger to our present lives. Tommy! You will finally know why it is that you became a werewolf!"
Tommy's eyes lit up, and a wide smile crossed his face. Lori was looking apprehensive, but it didn't take long for her to get excited over this prospect as well. Tommy glanced at Lori.
"You know, this isn't a bad idea. The spell does seem rather simple." Tommy told her, which seemed to settle everything.
"Yea, what could possibly go wrong? Lets do it!" Lori yelled, exited about what they were about to do.
"All we need to do is get the rosemary water." Tommy said, looking towards Merton expecting him to know where to find it.
"Merton smiled and ran behind his desk. He pulled out three rather large bottles that were filled with water and gave one to each of his friends.
"There you go, taken care of. Lets go!"
Tommy and Lori both laughed over Merton's enthusiasm but conceded and headed to the cemetery.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
They stood in a loose circle in the middle of the cemetery. They looked at each other and waited. Merton told them to pluck a few hairs from their heads and put it in the bottle.
After that was done they read over the spell one more time and tried to memorize it. Merton looked at his friends and started the spell. His friends joined in quickly and soon they were shouting the words. When the third verse was done the three teens shattered the bottles on the ground.
It was crazy, all sense of direction and stability was gone. All three felt that they were being turned over and over, violently being pulled left and right.
They landed on a very painful pile. Merton was on top of the pile and had made no move to get off.
"UG! Merton get off!" Tommy yelled at Merton.
Once they were all right, and they made sure that they were unhurt, they looked at their surroundings.
The air was rather chilly, they were standing in the center of a clearing with a few trees. Darkness enveloped them. They had no clue where they were. Pleasantville had no suck clearing.
"So, what now?" Asked Lori, looking around trying to find a anything that resembled shelter whatsoever.
"I don't know Lori. We are in the middle of nowhere. My guess would be to try to establish the direction we should head in order to find decent shelter." Merton answered crossly, making Lori want to beat his brains in.
The mood quickly worsened, as a fight broke out between Merton and Lori. She wanted to go North while Merton wanted to go East. Neither was budging, the insults flying left and right.
"Guys! Could you please make up you minds? Its getting colder and I'm getting hungry, I think we should find...wait a minute *Merton and Lori looked at Tommy* I can smell smoke. It's coming from there." Tommy said pointing due east. Merton gave Lori a sarcastic grin and the three teenagers walked off towards whatever Tommy smelled.
Half an hour passed and in the distance they could see the smoke coming from a chimney. There was a very unpleasant odor mingled with the smoke, driving Tommy insane. He would not place it, but it seemed eerily familiar.
As they got closer to the smoke, a fence came into view. Many drab buildings were now noticeable and what could be humans wearing red hats and uniforms.
"Seems to be a boot camp." Merton said, perplexed.
Ten minutes later, they were close enough to see that there were in fact many buildings. The odor that came with the smoke was stronger now, even Merton and Lori could smell it. There was something about this place that gave Tommy the creeps. They got close enough to be able to hear the guards.
It took them a while to realize that the guards were talking in a different language, and no one understood them at all.
"I think they're speaking German." Merton told his friends, a look of surprise on his face. "I didn't think our destinies would take us this far."
"Guys, I think we should be careful. We don't want to startle these guys, you know since we can't communicate with them and all." Tommy said, and crouched down. Merton and Lori followed suit and his themselves a bit.
The guards were having a very animated conversation. They were smiling and clasping each others shoulders. A third guard was walking over towards them and joined the conversation. This guard was more visible to the teens since he was facing them.
Merton's eyes went wide and Lori uttered a gasp. Tommy Looked at his friends and couldn't understand what he was seeing. Merton was showing pure fury in his eyes. His nostrils were flaring and he had red angry splotches on his face. Merton kept uttering 'How can that be!?' but Tommy could not understand why. He looked towards Lori and was almost floored at what he saw. She was giving the new guard the dirtiest look possible, clenching her fists hard enough to draw blood. She gave Merton a furious look,
"The spell went wrong! We are in the past, and not a very good place at that!" she hissed at Merton which retaliated "Don't you think I know that!? This isn't good!"
They both went back to glaring at the guard, looking angrier by the second. Tommy couldn't understand what was so wrong with the guard. He seemed like an ok guy. Tommy gave the guard a closer scrutiny.
"Hey, what is that symbol on his forearm?" Tommy asked his friends. He did not expect their reactions.
Merton and Lori gave him an exasperated look. Merton then huffed, Lori rolled her eyes. Tommy, feeling rather stupid waited for an answer.
"Are you kidding Tommy? Cause it isn't very funny!" Merton spat at him. Now angry, Tommy turned to Lori.
She was giving him an angry stare. She grunted once, Looked at the guard and back at Tommy.
"Tommy, that's a swastika." She told him.
Both Merton and Lori were outraged that Tommy now adopted a clueless look. Merton, very uncharacteristically, slapped Tommy in the back of the head. Tommy whirled on him, but stopped dead when he was the look of utter hatred on Merton's face.
"The swastika, Tommy, is the Nazi symbol. We traveled to the past and are now looking at a concentration camp." Merton told his friend, ice in his voice.
Tommy took the news in and processed it. He looked at the guard then back at his friends. Understanding flooded his face and anger so fierce filled him. The next second, Tommy wolfed out.
