"Every day you may make progress. Every step may be fruitful. Yet there will stretch out before you an ever-lengthening, ever-ascending, ever-improving path. You know you will never get to the end of the journey. But this, so far from discouraging, only adds to the joy and glory of the climb."
-Sir Winston Churchill
Running along the tunnel of words, David screeched to a halt. They weren't getting anywhere, and for the last 45 minutes, there was nothing but pure nothingness around them. "We HAVE to get out of here, Shahra! Erazor wants those rings! If we don't hurry, I might not make it!" Just as she was about to reply, they reached the end of the tunnel, and walked out to a large desert opening littered with buildings and large lakes.
"Hurry! We have to find the rings! It'll be quicker if we ask around!" David said, running to the desert world. Racing through sacred temples, houses, and a few bars, David found that no one knew anything about the rings. "Maybe we could ask the king." Shahra replied. "What King?" "The king of this desert community. You think that these people are here with mo one to lead them?" David looked at his friend, confused. "Why not? Let's do it."
Soon after, the two headed to the kings palace, hoping to gain information on the powerful objects. Starting at the duke's palace, David began running as fast as he could go. Shahra stopped him. "David, before we begin, I want to give you this ring. " It's a ring filled with secrets. You're my master now, and anything you desire will be granted. This also gives you superhuman abilities. Running at supersonic speed is one of them."
"Holy cow. Really? What else can I do?" He looked at her excitedly. "That you'll have to figure out on your own." She told him. "Now, let's go before Erazor catches up!" "Alright! King of Sand Oasis, Here we come!"
Running along the path, David thought to himself Look at me, first I'm some wimpy freshman, and now the fate of an entire world rests on my shoulders. I will not fail. Even if I die trying. Racing through the twisted turns of Sand Oasis, David realized that pillars of stone were rising out of the dirt.
"Watch out those pillars are being manipulated by black magic!" Shahra warned. "Gah!!" David ran out of the way in time to dodge the rock. Coming up to a clearing, David saw a ghost-like figure circling a box. "Whoa. Ghosts?" "Not really. Their called DJINN or, demon people. Either way, he's your enemy. Defeat him with homing attack!"
For some reason, David did as instructed and ran to his foe jumping and then zooming forward in a rush of speed, thus tackling his enemy. The ghost let out a cry and then disappeared, defeated.
"Good Job!" David smiled at her, before going down the ramp that led to the other side of the stage. David ran, jumped, and practically flew towards the king's palace. After running down the long town street, they reached his castle, which was buried in sand. "Alright! We made it! Hey, where do you think he is?" "He probably went into hiding."
As they walked to the palace, screams could be heard from the room. "AHHH! SOMEONE SAVE ME!!!!" "Get in there, David, QUICK!" Shahra said. David ran in there at top speed and knocked all of the djinns down like bowling pins. "AH! Don't hurt me!!" The king begged. "Don't worry, I won't hurt you." David helped the overthrown king to his feet.
"And that's how it happened." David avoided the king's look. "So, you want me to show you where the rings are? Simple. The rings are located at-WAAAAAAAAA!!!" A giant eagle soared overhead, grabbing the king in its clutches, and flying away.
"Sir!" Shahra exclaimed "David we have to go after him!" "I know! Come on!" The duo ran towards the jungle that surrounded Sand Oasis. What they would find there, they would not know…
