Anne's Sudden Shock
Anne dried her eyes, although her brown eyes had a look of curiosity in them.
"How did you know about that?" Anne asked Sir Orpheus curiously.
"That is simply because," Sir Orpheus answered Anne. "I am a dream protector from another world."
"You are a dream protector from another world?" Anne asked Sir Orpheus.
"That's correct, Courageous Maiden." Sir Orpheus said to Anne.
"What is your homeworld called?" Anne asked Sir Orpheus curiously.
Sir Orpheus turned to Anne.
"I cannot tell you that at this time, the Dark Moon Circus is after me!" Sir Orpheus explained to Anne, now gravely serious.
Anne walked over to an apple tree and picked herself a nice juicy red apple.
"I understand." Anne said to Sir Orpheus.
Anne took a bite of her apple as the knight looked up at her.
"Although," Sir Orpheus said to Anne. "I do have something for you so that you & I can keep in touch easily."
"You do, Sir Orpheus," Anne asked excitedly. "what is it?"
Sir Orpheus just then and there waved his right hand and made a diamond shaped pendant on a gold chain appear out from thin air.
Anne then caught the pendant in both of her hands.
"What is this?" Anne asked Sir Orpheus curiously.
"It is a special pendant just for you." Sir Orpheus answered Anne.
Anne simply put the pendant around her neck.
"What do I do with this, Sir Orpheus?" Anne asked.
"Whever you need my assistance," Sir Orpheus said to Anne. "you can use this to summon me."
Anne looked at the diamond shaped pendant.
"I will, Sir Orpheus." Anne said.
The next morning, Anne awoke to discover that she still had the pendant that Sir Orpheus had given to her around her neck.
Anne immediately changed her clothes and got ready for her day.
Suzie, Nancy, and Mimi all heard Anne slamming around as she hurried to get ready.
"Anne," Suzie asked groggily. "what are you doing awake so early?"
Anne put her baseball cap on, "We have school today and I don't want to be late." she answered Suzie.
"We don't have school today, Anne," Mimi said groggily. "it's Saturday!"
