Alanna's point of view

16 years later...

Here we go again...

I woke up out of bed, took care of myself (like brushing my hair and teeth, and changing into clean clothes) then went downstairs from my almost empty room. I see my family sitting there with no spot opened for me, as usual I get no plate of food. It's fine by me I'm not hungry anyways, the family I was forced to be adopted to treated me like I was a waste of their time, nothing special like their real children. Samantha was one of the worst of spoiled kids I've seen, her and the others always blame things on me and not telling the truth. Either way Lily and Brian Rune always know that it was them and they were proud of it. After that I went out the door while they yelled at me about some bull crap that I ignored, I walked from the house all the way to my school. I made it into class before the bell rang at 8:00 am, when I got there my seat was empty near the back. It was hard for me to see because I needed glasses, the pair I had previously broke because of Dave (My adoptive brother, he's an absolute piece of dun-) and our parents never bother to get me a new pair. They said "get a job" or "You don't need them" Or some other bull crap that they said. In my view, it's blurry as heck that I failed every class forcefully. Today was our field-trip that I never got invited to at all every year during school, but this year was different. Our teacher was out sick, thank goodness I don't have to deal with her today, but I'll stay behind just in case our sub doesn't want me there.

"I know your teacher informed me about this, Alanna, you'll actually have yours tomorrow, just pack up a bag from a list of things I'm giving to you personally." Said our sub.

He went over to my desk and placed a piece of paper on my desk, I looked at it for a moment and the list said...

A winter jacket
Winter boots
Gloves
Earmuffs/Or a winter hat
Three pairs of shorts
Three pairs of long/short socks
Two Long sleeve shirts
Two pairs of pants
A sweater
First-aid kit
Reusable water bottle
Hat
Sunglasses
Glasses(will deal with those tomorrow)
Compass
Rope
Non-refrigerated food
And...
Things that you had with you ever since you were two months old...

My mind was blazing of what the sub was asking for, I get the clothing and everything, but... my sword, spell-book, staff, etc... why do I need this. I had a twisted feeling that I was going on some sort of crazy adventure with him, is he serious? Me with some teacher I didn't know? Is he nuts? Then again... they don't have to deal with me tomorrow to save myself from another day of torture. I hallucinated of me fighting a black dragon who I fight along side with a purple dragon who is much smaller than the black dragon was. The next thing I didn't know that I fell out of my chair as I fainted, and let darkness close around me.
