Disclaimer: We only own Brittney and Mallory!!! The rest are creations of Tamora Pierce!!!
Sorry it's taken so long to get this one out!!! Everytime we've tried to start writing again, we'd crack up laughing!!! He he he!!!
In Mallory's Point of View:
It was night time. Night time in Tortall (or whatever King Johnny-boy called it) is real beautiful. The stars are not in the same groups as they are back at home, and they're so much clearer, too. Anyway, it was night time and I was extremely tired. So as soon as I got in bed, I fell asleep. And I had this weird dream, too. It went like this:
I was in the sky or something and below me were two planets. One looked like Eath, and the other one I think was Tortall. I was looking down on them, and in the water I could sorta see Brittany. She looked confused. And all of a sudden, the skies of Tortall and Earth started moving together. So did the planets, actually. And I felt this really bad pain as they collided. I looked down at Brittany and she was screaming. I realized that I was, too. And then Tortall and Earth exploded.
Weird, huh?
I woke up, sweating, and woke up Brittany. It was about 9:00 in the morning. "I wonder where they put Annie and Sophie," I said.
"Let's go find out," Britt-Britt said, and we set off.
It took us about an hour (the castle isn't really that confusing, we're just dumb) to get to the kitchen. We asked a cook for directions to the stables, which he gave. We then stole a few carrots for Annie and Sophie, and set off to the stables.
On the way, I told Brittany, "I had a really wierd dream."
"So did I!" Brittany exclaimed, "I was in the water and you were in the sky, and then Tortall and Earth began to collide and I exploded."
"That was my dream, too," I said.
"Hey!" I yelled when we got there. There was a brown haired woman stroking my horse!!! (Brittany would like to interject something: It's not your horse!! It's Jenna's!!!) "Hi," she said, looking at us. "I'm Daine, the Wildmage Who are you?"
"Brittany," said Brittany.
"And I'm Mallory," I said.
"You're the two who Jon thinks are goddesses, right?
"Yep."
Are these your horses?" she asked.
"Yeah. This one's Sophie and that one's Annie," I said.
"They're beautiful," she said.
I fed Sophie a carrot and asked, "Where's the grooming brushes?"
She pointed and Brittany and I got them. As we groomed, I asked, "So does everyone here have wierd dreams?"
She looked confused, "No, not really. We dream about the same things as you do, I would think. Lovers, and problems, and things like that."
"O-kay," I said, "So who do we see when we have a malfunctioning dream?"
"Ganiel, the Dream King."
"When's his buissness hours?" Brittany asked.
"Oh, no," said Daine, "I think you misunderstood. Ganiel only speaks to mortals in dreams."
"What?" I exclaimed. "That ain't fair!!!"
"The only way to actually see him is in dreams or go to the realms of the gods."
"How do we get there?" Brittany asked, her enthusiasm renwed.
"Oh, no, mortals can't get to the realms of the gods by themselves. Only the great gods can travel on a day to day basis. Some of the lesser gods can only go on holidays. So, unless you have the help of a great god, you won't be able to get anywhere."
"Nuts!" Brittany said.
"Well, it's still worth a shot," I said.
"What are you talking about?" asked Brittany, worried.
"Um...hey, great gods or whatever was making all that modern stuff appear, can we go to the realms of the gods?" I asked.
"Mallory! That's not a good idea--" Brittany yelled, but she stopped because we were suddenly being pulled by invisible hands to...
"Oh, my God," said Brittany, "We're in the realms of the gods."
