Chapter 10

"What can I do to help get my friends back?" I said starting to panic.

"There's nothing you can do," said Mrs. Weir.

Anxiety starting building up in my body, what if there was nothing I could do, my friends could be possessed by this genie for all eternity.

"What should I do right now?" I said.

Mrs. Weir closed her spell book and looked up right at me.

"In my training of magic, I was always told never to trust a creature of the undead, but there is something I could give you to help you."

"Thank you," I said sighing with relief.

She picked up her spell book and walked out of the room. It took her a few minutes to return with the stuff I may have needed. In her hand was this small brown leather satchel.

"What's in there?" I said.

She just smiled at me which seemed really awkward. She opened it up and took out a twelve inch bronze dagger including the handle.

"Bronze is a natural enemy to a genie, through the eyes of a genie bronze is known to be rusty gold, rust is a danger to them and makes them lose their power."

"How does it make them lose their power?"

"One of the most valuable metals on this planet is gold, and with great value comes with great power, and with more power means that a genie has more powerful magic."

"Can too much bronze kill them?" I said.

"That is something that's never been proven."

Mrs. Weir took the bronze dagger out of my hand and put it back into the satchel; she reached in the satchel again and took out a small iron hatchet. A hatchet is like an axe but smaller. It had a smooth wooden handle and the sharp iron blade looked sharp.

"What's this thing?" I said.

"It's an iron hatchet, you may need it."

"What will I need it for?"

"I don't know, make something up."

I looked at her kind of weird. She took the hatchet out of my hand and placed it back in the satchel and handed it to me.

"When do all the wishes become permanent?"

"Tomorrow," I said.

"Then you'll be prepared."

I don't know if she told me the right thing, but she told me to go home. I decided to follow her orders since it was getting pretty late. I walked out the door and down the stairs. The moon wasn't out, but that wasn't a problem for me because vampires have really good night vision.

I walked a few blocks until I finally got to my house. I walked up the porch and opened the door. Everything seemed to be dark. I looked at a clock in the distance with my night vision and it was twenty minutes to midnight. I know it seems awkward, but with the situation I was in I was going to bed.

I don't know why I was going to bed. After all of what happened today of almost being killed I'm actually going to bed and relaxing. To me this is very awkward. I got out of my normal day clothes and put on some plaid pants and a gray t-shirt with the Canadian flag on it.

I got under my giant bed sheets and started drifting off to sleep. I had this awkward dream. I was in second grade and it was show and tell day. This kid from my class got up and showed a giant snake about fifty feet long. Then out of nowhere a giant dinosaur crashed into the room with Cody Simpson riding it on a giant shadow. The dinosaur vomited candy and all the children screamed with joy.

I woke up from the dream later forgetting that it ever happened. My alarm was going off so I stretched over and switched it off. I got up and stretched. Today's the day where all of the wishes become permanent, and that all of my friends are going to become some sort of demons.

I put on some clothes that I found laying on my floor. I decided not to eat breakfast because I just wanted to get this day over with, even though this could be the day I possibly die.

I got to school a few minutes later and everything seemed to look normal like every other day. The only thing that bothered me was that I was afraid that Ethan, Benny, and Rory were going to be here. The weird thing is that they weren't.

I walked down to my locker to get my books for class. I closed the locker with the books in my hand and got to my first period class. It's not a class that I really like, but it's also very useful.

The bell rang a few minutes later and the teacher told us to take out our textbooks and notebook. We had to take a bunch of notes which almost made my hand fall off from writing.

Even after a few hours of school starting I saw no sign of my friends, or the demons possessing them. It was around lunch time and I got my plate of slop as always and I sat alone. I looked around and all of the kids around here were laughing and having a good time. They seem to be happy to be around their friends and not worried about them like me.

Still after not seeing my friends I decided to get up and walk out of the cafeteria, but the weird thing is, I couldn't get out of my seat! It was like I was stuck to my seat. I tried getting out as hard as I could but I couldn't I was 100% stuck.

After trying for a while I decided to get up until I noticed something right near the cafeteria. It was the genie looking at me, he had no emotion in his face but he snapped his fingers and my chair stared moving fast towards him and suddenly in the janitors closet.

I was still stuck to my seat and he locked the door and started looking at me.

"We have some unfinished business, friend!"

He gave me a weird smile, and I gulped in fear.

Sorry it took me a long time to upload the next chapter, school was getting in the way!
