Chapter II
Sixth grade, the year I fell. The underworld lord uses his servants to turn humans into agents of darkness, some of those were my friends. They trained me wrong. I was fighting for the wrong side, and bringing the true King shame. I got into one fight, knocking some kid (who honestly deserved it) on the ground. I got detention about twice a month, and only brought myself shame. My parents knew that if they didn't get me out soon, I might destroy all of the King's plans for me. So they decided to send me to an academy that would train me to be a spirit realm warrior. They sent me to a summer camp that would prepare me for The Academy.
While I was there, I was having fun, learning things I never thought I would. However, no amount of training could prepare me for what happened next. A cloud set in, everything was white around me, and an important-looking Person just stared at me. He asked with a voice that sounded like thunder, "Are you ready to be a soldier in my army?" I answered Him with a dignified statement.
"I'm in seventh grade!"
"So because you're a kid, you're automatically useless?" He replied. I had no response. "Well if you have no more excuses, it's time to get you ready." He handed me some weapons and armor. "This helmet will only help you as long as you follow Me, leave my army and you will lose it. This chest-plate represents your goodness, do wrong and you lose it until you apologize and make it as right as you can. Your leggings will protect you as long as you are truthful. Lie once and you lose it until you make amends. Your shoes will help as long as you are prepared, you will not get these until you finish the basic spiritual training at The Academy. As long as you have faith in me, you will have this shield."
"What about a weapon to attack with?" I asked.
"Here you go," He said as He gave me a book. This is The Book, your weapon against all demons."
"So you expect me to fight with a BOOK? I know I'm supposed to fight off armies of demons, and I got a bunch of armor, but a freaking book!? I'm in seventh grade, not even five feet tall, severely beaten by the demons, and you want me to risk everything I have, train with people I don't even know, and fight with a book!? You're insane! I mean, you can't just—"
"SHUT…UP!" My blood ran cold and I felt my heart stop. "You said you had faith, you said you're ready for change. Now are you going to stand up and do something for once in your life or are you going to sit down and cry about it for the rest of your life. There are going to be some major changes in your life in a matter of years, and you are either with me or against me, there is no gray area. Now be a warrior, or be a seventh-grader, you decide."
My body trembled, I had no excuses. It was time to be a warrior. "I am in."
"Good," He said, and I was back where I was. It was time to figure out how to use The Book and start training at The Academy.
Everyone must accept their calling eventually. It is time for me to finally accept mine. I will now start posting a chapter every Wednesday. With the next two releases, I will give you the name and basic summary of the other two books that will make it hard for you to sleep.
