A/N: I have so much I want to say to you guys, but honesty, I have been trying to keep from doing this, to make it feel like a real story. However, I must adress the issue of people not commenting or reviewing my story! I have had 1 review this entire time! Please, I need them, to make the story better!
Melissa looked around her as she was given a tour of the house, but she was not comprehending anything that was being said to her. As she was led up some stairs, she suddenly stumbled over a giant furry rug, one that looked like a baboon.
She fell backwards, startled, when it reared up in anger for kicking his bottom.
The other laughed a little while she fell down the stairs. She got up, dusted herself off, then tried to look dignified as she marched up the stairs, passing the baboon who was yelling at her... In baboon.
The others ran up to her, and one of then, a young kid, said "Melissa, you are the blood of the pharaohs! That is a huge honor!" She shook her head. "I don't even know what you are talking about."
Suddenly, the wall exploded, and everyone fell backwards, and was pelted by shrapnel. Miraculously, though most everyone was injured and what look to be a seven or eight get old kid unconscious, Melissa saw that no one had died. She then looked through the hole and realized they were all about to be dead.
Looking through the hole, she saw what appeared to be a giant snake in the sky, towering over other magicians. She had picked up on that they were magicians when they were giving her the tour. She turned, ran, and while running, Melissa remembered her cards.
Reaching to her pocket, she felt, but realized that "They aren't there!"
"What's not there?" Asked a kid who ran beside her. "Nothing," was her reply.
Melissa took off running, weaving in and out of kids and adults rushing to the breach. She ran straight through, and hit the ground running. It hurt, but she had been through worse. Finally, after about half an hour of running, she collapsed onto a nearby chair in front of a store.
Lookin around, she knew that she wasn't anywhere near the place that she should have been. Although being kidnapped twice in one day was certainly depressing, Melissa honestly missed her cards the most, though she had only had the a short time.
She sighed to herself, picked herself up, and started walking in the direction of the sun, West. Melissa didn't stop; however, she could help but marvel at the sights around her. Buildings taller than she would have thought possible looked precariously above her head. Then, she heard a rustling behind her, and spinning around, she turned to see it.
