Hey all, I'm back with another chapter. Now this one is pretty interesting. I hope you like it.
The Monday after Selena's suspension was, as usual, boring and uneventful. Then again, when was school ever not boring or uneventful? But this wasn't going to be any other day. Selena was walking alone to one of her classes when something peculiar caught her attention. A large black dog was outside, walking around the school. When no one was looking, Selena walked out to see the dog coming toward her. She kneeled down to its height.
"Hi big guy…you lost or something?" she asked.
The dog didn't reply, just stared at her intently. Its dark eyes seemed to stare right into her soul. Its ears were really pointy and neck not too thick. Its legs were long and paws pretty big, but not too big. It looked like…a jackal.
"What are you?" she asked.
Someone you know…
Selena quickly recoiled, drawing back away from the dog. She looked around, but no one was there.
"Hello? Who's there?"
I'm in your mind, Selena.
"Who or what are you?"
Someone you know.
"But who?"
There is a place where you can go to find out.
"Where?"
Death Valley…
"Death Valley? That's where mom met dad"
But you only know half the story, my dear. Come to the Valley, and you shall know everything.
When Selena looked again, the dog was gone. Something was telling her that this wasn't going to be good.
"David!" Selena ran up to her friend after the situation with the dog.
"Selena, what is it?" David asked.
"There was a dog…a dog running outside the school. I was only looking to find who it belonged to-"
"You left school?!"
"No…It was just outside the school. David, that's not important. Look, it spoke…English. Really good English".
David looked at her strangely. "O…Kay?"
"It said to go to Death Valley and that I only know half the story about my parents".
"Well…you want me to take you to Death Valley?"
"Yeah…kinda…"
"Well…I say we got an adventure on our hands. Alright. I'll take ya there".
Selena hugged David tightly. "Thank you!"
A/N: Well, how was that? I hope it was alright. Like I do with all my chapters. Next chapter: David and Selena go to Death Valley, where destiny waits for them.
