I opened up a poll that Simon should be with so vote that he should fall in love with.

Chapter 7
I met the teachers who were waiting for me in the teacher's lounge.
"Simon, do you know why you're here?" Mr. Colin asked.
I shook my head but I said "Does this have anything to do with the prophecy?"
"Yes, it does and it seems you're the son of Odin." Angel said.
"How do you know?" I asked.
"All of the gods inform us with their children. So we looked in the file of Odin and there were only two. The other one is someone who died already while the only one is you." Mrs. Davids said.
"Odin usually only have godly children so mortal children of Odin are rare." Angel said.
"So I'm supposed to go to the quest well that's nice." I said cheekily.
"Well, you should go on the last week of October so on Sunday since we need to prepare you." Mr. Johanson said gloomily.
"Besides the Norns can only talk on the Autumn Equinox so you're about a month early because they usually give us signs about when the prophecy takes place." Mr. Dale added.
As they told me what to do, and stuff like that I was wondering was I really the one for the quest. I mean I was the beginner, the newbie yet I was singled out for a quest.
I was startled out of my thoughts by someone saying "So Mr. Johnson, you must choose your companions for the quest." Mr. Quinn was saying.
I remember nodding, but I was busy thinking even more.
"Hey, Simon, are you there?" Angel said waving his hand in front of my face. "You can leave now."
I nodded and quickly got out of the teacher's lounge embarrassed. My friends surrounded me including some other girls.
I immediately said "Kyle, and Phillip I definitely want you in the quest." I was about to say Kade you too but Kade saw the look in my eyes and said "No, Simon I won't be going in the quest with you. I had my fair share in quests and I don't really like them."
I nodded and said "Suzy and Sabrina would you like to come with me?" as I saw Sabrina with them.
They nodded and said "Sure! We would like to come."
I said "Then I have all four members for the quest."
We knew about the upcoming hardships and we all said "We're going to have to train harder now." Suzy added "In all of our classes."
We guys groaned and Phillip looked disappointed he couldn't say Jinx again.
Phillip thought and then said "Jinx" feebly.
"It's too late." Kyle said as I nodded with him.
Suzy and Sabrina giggled while Phillip's head drooped again.
"Well we're going on a quest so cheer up or else I will throw something at you will probably hurt, a lot." I said.
Phillip immediately looked happy but nervous maybe because he heard about my magical powers.
Suddenly Joe and his equally ugly, Chuck came up to us.
Phillip suddenly said "Look it's Godzilla and King Kong run for your lives!"
We ran away laughing at Phillip's words. I think those giants were so surprised they forgot how to speak or maybe just maybe they can't speak for more than 5 words at a time.
"Well they're so slow that even an elephant could walk faster than them!" exclaimed Phillip.
"Well I don't think you should say that because they're right behind you punk." Joe said out of nowhere.
Phillip looked at him and said "Is that a flee on your nose? I think it is you should kill it."
Joseph did the most logical thing ever to do slapped his face as hard as he can which caused him to fall over to Chuck who got knocked to the ground.
"Run again!" Suzy screamed.
We finally managed to run away from them and made it to our cafeteria where people are getting food.
"So tomorrow is no school since it's the weekends so that's awesome, no school!" Phillip exclaimed.
"Well tryouts are then so we better do those." Suzy said bringing him back to making him droopy.
"I thought I had time to think I was having nothing to do in school." Phillip and Kyle muttered,
We walked to the arena where we met Cade trying to destroy some dummies and blasting targets apart.
"Hey Cade!" Kade yelled to him.
"What's up Kade!" exclaimed Cade.
Then they both laughed hysterically.
"They're both crazy, but they think their names are funny." Phillip whispered to me.
Cade saw me and said kindly "Hey Simon I was you in class yesterday."
I merely nodded since I didn't know what to do.
Phillip sentenced my death by saying "Simon is awesome at fighting with swords you should fight him." Phillip exclaimed.
"Plus he even knows magic so you guys should have a contest at chucking aura blasts at each other." Kyle added.
"No it's ok; I'm not that good at magic or swordsmanship." I quickly said.
"Yeah right you beat me in swords fighting in your first try." Phillip said.
"Angel was impressed because you summoned twenty aura balls and hit the targets on your first try also!" exclaimed Kyle.
"How do you know I'm good at magic?" I exclaimed.
"I overheard Angel talking to you, and I am in the same class as you." Kyle said.
Desperate to change the subject from Cade trying to kill me I said "What activities are you doing Cade?"
Cade smiled evilly and said "Oh, you're not getting out of fighting me that quickly but I am taking football, swimming, and soccer."
"See everyone's doing swimming, I told you guys." Phillip told Kyle, Suzy, and I.
"You didn't tell us anything." We told him.
"Oh yes I did, I told you directly 'We're all doing swimming! Swimming for the win!' "
"You never told us anything that everyone's doing swimming." Suzy told him as if he was a toddler.
"I give up." Phillip said, defeated.
We guys snickered as he sighed. Cade asked me "Can I see how many aura balls you can throw I set the targets up."
I nodded and concentrated and I threw all the aura balls I could throw before I was tired.
"Wow, you managed to twenty-seven on your second try, that's great!" exclaimed Cade.
I nodded weakly because I was tired.
"Don't worry you will feel that when you're all drained." Cade told me. "How about we battle tomorrow because you're too tired and I will have an advantage." Cade continued.
I was happy I didn't have to fight him today. I knew he was kind because he like to fight fair even though others might not.
"Well, Simon, it won't help you that he's facing you tomorrow. He's the best swordsmen for thirty –years so you're dead." John said.
Then I knew I was dead.
