Chapter 1 The Beginning of the end.

In the Rayman's world, there was peace and harmony with the habitants of the world. The people of the world lived and worked together to create communities and cared for each other until, one faithful day.............................

At the Heart of the world, where all the earth's energy is, there was a small door, two teensies entered the small room. In the small room, the two teensies looked around. The room had 3 seats which were red, there was a small table with 3 cups with a bottle of plum juice nearby. The walls had pictures of teensies chasing butterflies or playing leap frog. One of the teensies wore a crown, his clothes were green with a diamond pattern on it. The other teensie who looked almost the same as the other teensie with the big nose and small eyes, wore a red suit with a long pointed hat and had a shepherd's stick in his right hand.

The two teensies sat down, the one with the crown looked at his friend and slowly mumble to his friend as the other teensie drank half of the bottle of plum juice "The world as we know it will end if we don't do anything!!!" The other teensie wiped his mouth and turned to look at his friend. "Well, how is it going to end, I mean come on, the heart is safe.." "But you don't understand, the heart needs something else in order to continue with the love and happiness"

"You been drinking this! Because you sound crazy!!" screamed the teensie as he fell off his chair with a thud "I AM NOT CRAZY!!!!!!!!!!!!" The teensie with the crown screamed. The shepherd teensie put the bottle down and looked at his companion in shock. "Listen, the evil force Adrienne, has taken a part of the heart of the world, she is going to use it to destroy the world" whispered the teensie with the crown.

The other teensie picked the bottle up again and poured the juice into his cup and looked at it. "Well, the world is going to end AGAIN!!! What shall we do apart from drinking plum juice until we are plastered?????" The teensie with the crown scratched his head, knocking his crown over which hit the ground with a clatter.

"I KNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Listen, if I remember the prophecy right, the one who takes it will lose it and the maiden warrior will save the world!" "Hang on, just stop right there" said the shepherd teensie, he looked at the other teensie as he lost his mind "Are you telling me that the people who will save the world is a girl??????!!!???" "Well, yes, well, ermm, can I have some plum juice now???" The two teensies sat in the room, wondering if the crystal will be returned. While in Clearleaf Forest, which was far from the heart of the world, is a small village. The small village had rows and rows of small terrace houses and farms which were near acres of land with cows and sheep in the fields.

In the local school, there was a class being taught, for children aged 14 to 15 years old. A maths lesson was being taught by a teacher called Mrs Fishmore. As she wrote on the board with the chalk scratching the board, making a blood chilling sound, and after she finished, turned around to the class who was covering their ears because of the sound of the chalk on the board and asked the class in a soft, cool voice. "And what is 5687-1902???????" The pupils in her group looked around the room, avoiding her small beady eyes and longing for the school bell to ring, especially one person, a girl, called Lexine.

Lexine was a young girl who was half cat. Her long mousy brown hair was down to her shoulders, her blue eyes shine like sapphires and her love heart shaped head was a pale pink. Her long tail swished as the clock slowly moved onto 3 o'clock. Lexine wore a red top with the saying "Speak to the hand because the face ain't listening" and a blue pleated skirt with her white Reebok trainers. On her desk, was her colourful pencil case, it only had 2 pens, a pencil, a pencil sharper and a ruler in it. Lexine sighed as she looked at it, wondering if she was going to get out of this nightmare. Her mind started to float, as it always does when she is finding her lessons boring or hard.

Lexine began to dream of running around outside on the lush green grass, relaxing in the shade from the hot sun, doing cartwheels and reading books........ "LEXINE!!! FOR THE LAST TIME WHAT IS THE ANSWER!??!?!?!" Lexine jumped, she looked at her teacher, her teacher was a round, ugly frog, her eyes were small and beady like a blackbird's eyes, her glasses were almost falling off her nose which made her look vile. Her pink cardigan smelt of rotten cabbages and her yellow shirt looked like she has had it since the 50's. She wore blue sandals with stripy socks and she stared at Lexine. "well, what is the answer???"

"Er...............what was the question miss????? There was silent in the class, they knew that Mrs Fishmore was seriously angry with Lexine, her little eyes started to look like they were about to pop out of her head, her forehead became to show little purple veins and she started to shake violently and look like a volcano about to erupt.

"LISTEN, IF WERE PAYING ATTENTION, I WON'T HAVE TO REPEAT THE QUESTION!!!, I THINK I MIGHT GIVE YOU A DETENTION.." RING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The teacher swore under her breath as her class cheered but then stopped when they saw her face. Mrs Fishmore wiped her head and smiled at the class and said in her cool voice. "Right, I expect you to finished the questions we have been doing today for Monday and Lexine"

Lexine heart sunk "Here we go" She thought as she walked to her teacher's desk carrying her khaki bag in her right hand. "Well, as you seen to be able to do these sums without my help as you seen to day dream, you can do all the questions on pages 104 to 106, now get out of my sight!!!!!" shrieked Mrs Fishmore as she threw Lexine's Maths book at her, Lexine picked the book up which hit her chest and landed on the stone floor.

"I expect it to be down by Monday morning, if not, we'll see what your parents had to say about it" She snarled as Lexine put her book in her bag. "Yes Mrs Fishmore" replied Lexine in a quiet voice "Stupid old bag" thought Lexine as she walked out of her teacher room, giving her a filthy look.
