Chapter 2

The City of Burmecia

"How far away is this city?" Kamon whined, "I'm starting to get blisters!"

"So? I'm getting blisters on my blisters," retorted Mia.

"So? I'm gett . . . . Ow!" Kamon yelled as an acorn pegged him.

"Who threw that!" Kamon yelled, infuriated.

As soon as Kamon finished his sentence, a boy with big yellow shoes and goofy hair dropped from the trees.

"I did!" he said, "The name's Sora. Sorry, but I had to get your attention somehow."

"Yeah, but you threw an acorn at me! You could have just jumped from the trees and told us your name, but no, you had to throw an acorn! That really hurt!"

"Quit whining, Kamon!" said Mia.

"So, ya wanna fight?" said Sora, eagerly.

"Sure! I could use the practice!" said Kamon.

"Well let's start!" said Sora reaching down to his side and pulling a blade, which resembled a key, out of thin air.

Kamon unsheathed his sword and took a fighting stance. Sora shouted, "Wind!" and was encircled by a magic barrier.

Kamon swung his sword at Sora's arm and felt a searing pain in his own.

"Ha!" laughed Sora, "Aeroga reflects all physical attacks."

Kamon put up his hand and yelled, "Silence!"

Instantly, Sora's barrier was destroyed and his magic sealed.

"What did you do?" Sora cried.

"I just sealed your magic, that's all," replied Kamon.

"That's cheap!" yelled Sora as he charged at Kamon. Kamon nimbly dodged the blow and tripped Sora.

"I give, see ya!" said Sora, suddenly disappearing.

"Where'd he go?" said Kamon, disappointed.

Over the horizon, Kamon and Mia could see Burmecia.

"We made it!" yelled Kamon and Mia.

They both ran toward the city, ready for anything.
