Kim, Ron, and Monique payed close attention to Proffesser Englund's class about the legendary power of The Spheres.
"It is said, that the Spheres will be summoned when they are needed the most." Proffesser Englund explained, "They will choose five chosens to summon them when the time is needed. There are five different Spheres. Sphere Phoenix, Sphere Storm, Sphere Wind, Sphere Flower, and Sphere Power Brain."
When the class ended, the five friends started talking about the past class.
"Do you think the legends are true?" Clarke asked.
"I dunno..." Kim said, "It could be true, then it couldn't. A lot of weird things happened to me. It should happen to us, too."
"Maybe there's a connection, and why we first met you three in the first place." Princess suggested, "Like, destiny!"
"Princess, they're my roomates!" Clarke retorted, "Of course we were supposed to meet in the first place! The teachers decided to put us together!"
"But why?" Princess whined.
"Look, why don't we just try to look for the Spheres ourselves?" Kim suggested.
"Yeah!" Monique chimed in, "Who knows? We might be the chosens themselves!"
"Let's give it a try!" Kim shrugged.
"But that means entering the Forbidden Dome." Ron said, "Which Proffesser Julia strictly said that we weren't allowed to enter!"
"Oh, c'mon, Ron!" Clarke said, "It'll be fun! Besides, we won't actually enter. We'll just peer down!"
"It's dark down there..." Kim mumbled.
"Think we should jump?" Princess suggested.
"No." Kim answered, "If we go in there, then we won't be able to come back out..."
"You really believe that legend, do you?" Ron said.
"Of course I - whoaaaaa!" Kim began screaming as she fell down the hole in the dome.
"Kim!" Ron jumped in after her.
"Wait for us!" Monique called as the remaining three jumped in after the two.
It was like an endless tunnel. Finally, Kim landed on a stoned floor in a sunlit room. Ron landed right next to her. Monique, Clarke, and Princess followed shortly.
"Whoa." Kim finally said after a brief silence, "This must be the Entrance Room that Proffesser Englund was talking about."
"That means the right hallway will lead us to the Sphere's Tomb." Clarke said.
"Let's go." Monique said, "We can't get out the way we came in anyway."
The five ventured through the dim hallways. But all they found was an opening that lead to outside.
"Aw man!" Clarke groaned, "The legends weren't real! They were fake!"
"Well, it was worth trying." Kim said, "At least we came out."
"And we're glad you did!"
The five screamed when Proffesser Julia and the other teachers stood infront of them.
"I can explain, Proffesser Julia!" Kim exclaimed, "I fell in! I tripped!"
"You can explain the rest in my office!" Proffesser Julia replied.
"I can't believe that you fell in, Kim!" Monique snapped as the five friends walked through the forest near the school campus.
"It wasn't that bad..." Kim muttered.
Meanwhile, up in the trees, was a familiar sight: a flying squirrel. Unfourtunatly for this little guy, while his family and friends can fly, he couldn't!
Now was the time to try.
Back down, the five friends were continuing to argue and walk through the forest, until...
"WAAAAAAA!"
"Gah!" Kim looked up and fell backwards when the flying squirrel landed on her face.
"Kim!" Monique exclaimed.
"KP, you alright?" Ron asked, kneeling down to see if Kim was alright.
Kim detatched her face from the flying squirrel, and looked at it. The flying squirrel stared at Kim blankly, blinking every now and then.
Kim then started to giggle.
"What's so funny, Kim?" Clarke asked.
"Oh, poor little guy fell from the trees!" Kim laughed, twirling the little animal around, and grabbing it by the flaps of skin for the "wings."
The squirrel looked irritated as Kim gently pulled on the flaps of skin.
Then, she placed the flying squirrel on her shoulder, and climbed up a tree to the highest branch.
"C'mon, little fella," Kim said sweetly, placing the squirrel back on the branch, "Time to fly."
The squirrel looked down, screamed and panicked, then skittered back on Kim's shoulder, shivering and whimpering.
"Oh, you're afraid of heights, aren't you?" Kim said sweetly.
The squirrel began to chitter and attempted to explain that he couldn't fly like his friends and family.
"Oh, I get it." Kim said, finally realizing, "You can't fly. But, why?"
The squirrel looked down sheepishly and began forming little invisible circles on Kim's shoulder meekly.
"You're too scared, aren't you?" Kim asked.
The squirrel nodded.
"Then, stick with me." Kim smiled, "What should I call you... I know! How 'bout Nalong?"
Nalong jumped up and down and chittered happily.
"Then, Nalong it is!" Kim replied, "C'mon! Let's get back down!"
"Looks like nobody's at the library." Kim frowned. Her friends were outside while Kim excused herself to go to the library for more research on the Legend of The Spheres.
Nalong tagged along, and spotted a shelf that was just half a meter away from him. He leaped off of Kim's shoulder and clung on for his life on one of the books on the bookshelf.
Kim heard Nalong's strains and gasped when she saw Nalong in his position.
"Nalong!" Kim snapped.
"Uhhhhhhhh...aaaah!" Kim caught Nalong as the book that he clung onto was falling out of the shelf.
"Nalong!" Kim scolded, "This is a library! Not a playground!"
As Nalong whined, the book that Nalong held onto, slipped back into the shelf, and glowed.
Kim looked up and noticed. She gasped when the shelf seperated into four sections, revealing a stoned hallway.
Kim entered the opening, and yelped when the shelf closed shut behind her, and everything went dark. Even Nalong yelped. They yelped again when a candle was turned on.
Kim gulped and ventured down the halls.
Finally, at the end, they saw two familiar faces.
"Kim!" Monique and Ron exclaimed.
"Monique! Ron!" Kim exclaimed.
"How'd you get here?" Ron asked.
"I was in the library, then all of a sudden, the shelf opened and led me to a hallway, which...lead to here." Kim answered.
Nalong nodded in agreement, with his arms crossed over it's chest.
"Well, at least we're all safe." Monique answered, "We fell in an opening that the garden created and it got closed when we entered. Clarke and Princess are still at the surface."
"Hey, guys!" Ron exclaimed, "Check this out! It's the Sphere's Tomb!"
"Then the legend was right!" Kim exclaimed.
Then, light shone from an opening from the ceiling, sunlight shining down on the tomb.
The three gazed at the opening.
Then, the lid of the tomb opened, and from the glowing box, flew out three Spheres. A yellow, blue, and red.
The red and blue ones formed as squiggly rings of light around Kim and Monique's wrists, and dissolved into their wrists.
The two girls whimpered in horror.
But Ron was too freaked out to stay in one spot. Ron screamed and started running around the area, in and out of the columns, as the yellow Sphere chased after him.
Finally, when Ron tripped, the yellow Sphere turned into a squiggly ring of light around Ron's wrist, and dissolved into it.
"Joy..." Ron groaned.
"C'mon!" Kim exclaimed, "Proffesser Julia said that we have the ability to teleport. Let's give it a shot!"
Kim closed her eyes and concentrated. When she opened her eyes, her eyes flashed the same shade of red as her Sphere, and disappeared in the same colour.
"Where'd she go?" Ron exclaimed.
"Let's try it." Monique said. The two did the same and ended up where Kim was: in the front courtyard.
"There you guys are!" Clarke called.
