Review!!
"How did you know?" Jodie asked me, flabbergasted. (Even under pressure I use vocabulary!)
"It's… sorta a long story." I explained how I got The Book, then all the nonsense that took place to get me to where I was now. Afterwards, we all went silent. Marlene called us in for dinner.
"So, little ones, have you found what you have been looking for?" All of us shook our heads.
"That is sad to hear." Marlene replied, but it really sounded like 'Dat eez sad jou eer.'
"Where do you think it might be?" I asked. Joe shrugged.
"Who knows? It could be anywhere."
"Well, I think we should find it before - Mmf!" Fred was cut off by Freddi's hand.
"We'll explain later." Freddi promised. I nodded and went back to my soup.
Later… :)
It was around midnight. Marlene and her husband were sleeping in the other room. A small candle flickered from the center of the small circle we formed. It gave the hut a mysterious tone to it.
"So, what did you mean that you need to find it before someone?" I asked. Joe spoke up.
"Well, you see, we need to keep it away from my uncle. He's mad."
"Why is he so mad?" Sam sighed.
"No, like crazy mad! Mad Jack, or Joe's uncle, is after The Book."
"With it he can rule the entire space time continuum!" Jodie exclaimed.
"And we can't let that happen!" Freddi finished.
"So, you guys are sort of like police? Making sure no one is trying something?" A lot of 'Yeah right' kind of looks went around, and I knew something deeper than that was happening, but they nodded.
"Tomorrow we're going to go and look for it again. Are you in?" Samantha asked. She seemed to be the eccentric one of the group. I nodded.
OK! Sorry for the shortness, long really isn't my thing! Review!
