Chapter 1. Dreams and reality.
Zoe awoke from the dream that held her so tight. She groaned and held her eye which was burning with her hand, it was the dream again.
It had started 3 weeks ago ever since XANA had attacked her and Odd, the dream had started with the running then had built up dream after dream to this point. Another thing was that it felt so real and she could still feel the phantom pains from the dream. And the name she was addressed by, Ailith why did it mean so much to her. Ailith's companion Azim, she felt he was close to Ailith like a brother.
Quickly Zoe turned on her laptop and searched for Ailith; the only thing that she could find was that it's meanings were Warrior, Nobel battle and Seasoned warrior. So she searched for Azim; all she found that it was the name of a prince and it's meanings were Protector, Defender, Mighty, Magnificent and Glorious.
"Well this was getting me no where." Zoe said to herself. "But those meaning of Ailith do suit me to a certain extent."
Zoe touched the mark over her eye as she viewed it in her mirror. The mark was a long scar that went over the eyelid, the eye it's self a milky colour and Zoe could hardly see out of it. She then brushed her hair and tied it up but in a way her long fringe was still covering her marked eye.
Zoe was just about to open her door when there came a knock. Opening the door she saw Odd standing there with a piece of paper in his hand.
"Odd?" said Zoe.
"Can I come in?" he asked.
Zoe gestured for him to come in and she closed the door behind him.
"Look at this. I made and drew it." he said holding the piece of paper out to her.
Zoe looked over the drawings on it and gaped.
"T-these are blue-prints for… A GUN!" she almost shouted.
Odd making it was not only unbelievable but these blue-prints were for something only the military would use.
"How?" was all Zoe could ask.
"I've been having weird dreams…"
"That seem so real and familiar?"
"Yeah but how did you know?"
"I've been having them too."
Zoe quickly explained her dreams of escaping someone along with loads of children. Odd had said his dreams were mostly blue-prints and a fatherly voice that anyone would trust congratulating him for apparently drawing them.
"Okay this is getting too weird." said Odd.
"Should we tell the others?" asked Zoe.
"Something's telling me no or at least not until we get all the facts."
Zoe was currently sitting in her art lesson drawing a setting but her mind was on her dream. She hardly noticed her hand crossing the paper with a pencil as in drew as if of it's own free will. When she looked own she almost gasped at what she saw, in was the ordinary clearing back home where Odd and she used to play but she didn't even know she was drawing it.
Looking over at Odd she saw him unintentionally drawing a set of trees from the clearing that a person would only know if they looked at both pictures.
After class they confronted each other.
"Maybe something's contacting us and telling us to go there." said Odd.
"Well the holidays are coming up so may as well go home and take a look." replied Zoe.
Suddenly their phones started beeping and when they read the message they received it said SOS XANA.
"Time to go." said Zoe as they ran off.
XANA had once again pulled out all the stops with the monsters. Odd and Zoe were cracking there knuckles ready to fight, yes they were still a bit sour about XANA's attack on them and were ready for anyway to get back at XANA.
Yumi was taking Aelita to the tower while the others took care of the mass of monsters. Zoe was flying about on the overglider which was the new ride Jeremy had made for her, it looked like a hand glider but with fox-like detailing. A tarantula fired and hit one of the wings of the overglider making Zoe spin out of control, Zoe jumped from it and landed on the overboard with Odd as the overglider crashed into the very tarantula that shot it. Zoe jumped t the ground once close enough and Odd soon followed after the Kamikaze on his board into a Crab.
Suddenly Odd and Zoe stopped as a wild look began to form in their eyes, they nodded at each other then began their attack on William. Zoe jumped and landed in a handstand on William's shoulders while Odd tripped him up, Zoe then used the momentum to kick him in midair with a clawed shoe and send him flying off the edge. They then went to destroy the rest of the monsters.
Ulrich was surprised when he came out of a freezing by a Block to find the battle field empty beside him, Odd and Zoe.
"What happened here?" Ulrich questioned.
"While you were in deep freeze we took care of the rest of the monsters." said Zoe proudly.
"You know I think I'm over the Whole XANA possessing me thing after that." said Odd giving Zoe a high five.
Ulrich just shook his head in defeat, he would never get those 2.
It came time for the holidays and Zoe headed home with Odd to maybe find some answers, Odd had once again left Kiwi with Yumi since her dad liked Kiwi so much before. Hopefully after this trip they would come back with answers.
There you go. Sorry if it seems a bit rushed but I really want to get to the bit of the story that explains everything since it will probably take the longest. Anyway please review, remember you opinion counts.
