Chapter 1

The orb

"Mistress, what's this room?" Zara asked.

"This is David's office." I said.

There was a big window near the back. His desk was in the corner. He had a console of computer screens on the opposite wall. It didn't take up the whole wall, but it was close.

"I want to see." Ragen said.

I let them in and then we started exploring. We looked through all the drawers and stuff. I got bored after a bit. I decided to start a game of chase with Zara. She changed into her fox form, a white fox with a black strip going down her back. She yipped excitedly. We ran and jumped around the room. I bumped into a wall and it opened.

"Mistress, are you ok?" Zara turned around. She was human now.

"I'm fine." I rubbed my side.

"What's that?" Ragen pointed.

There was giant safe with a number pad on it. The door was gray. I poked it. It was metal.

"It's a safe. It holds important stuff." I explained.

"I wanna open it!" Zara used her magic and tried to open it.

It wasn't enough. We tried again. The door swung open. There was a place for documents, but what was really interesting was the glass doored cubby. I opened it and saw two orbs sitting on a pillow. One was pink with white sparkles. The other was slightly cooler looking. It was dark blue with red lines with green fire and light purple lighting floating around it. I picked it up.

"Ooh, shiny." Ragen tried to grab it.

"No, my turn!" Zara argued.

It fell onto the floor and smoke filled the room. We coughed. A large figure emerged. The silhouette had a deer antler on the right side of the head and a goat horn on the left.

"Oh, I never thought anyone would find that orb. Now, let's have some fun…" It laughed.
