okay, these are the ones that have actually made me write pieces to it. I have so many more but they are all outlines. I feel like I am vomiting words at you, but I hope you enjoy them. ~S.K.


Prologue


Tori and her sister, Trina, meandered through the vibrant streets of Los Angeles' Chinatown. Trina was enthralled by the colorful displays of trinkets and exotic curiosities, but Tori's skepticism prevailed. The sisters paused at the entrance of a quaint shop with an alluring array of jewelry, and Tori's gaze was drawn to a delicate amulet, fashioned from fine gold with an amber-encased Chinese character.

Trina, excitement bubbling in her voice, suggested, "Tori, you should get that amulet. It's so unique."

Tori couldn't shake her doubts about the shopkeeper's warning. The elderly woman behind the counter observed their interest and cautioned, "Admire but do not touch. Some pieces have ancient magic."

Tori hesitated, glancing at Trina, who was already imagining how the amulet would look on her sister. Tori asked the shopkeeper, "Magic? What kind of magic?"

The shopkeeper's response was cryptic, "This one, it's said to help the wearer disappear. A gift for those who seek to evade the eyes of the world."

Trina's eyes sparkled with fascination, but Tori remained cautious. She then turned to her sister, "Trina, I'm not so sure about this."

Trina reassured her, "Come on, it's just a story. Try it, it could be fun!"

Tori nodded, her curiosity overpowering her caution. She approached the amulet, her fingers trembling with temptation. With a quick glance back at the shopkeeper and a feeling of skepticism, she slid the amulet onto her wrist. As it made contact with her skin, it emitted a soft, golden glow.

Tori's eyes widened in awe, but before she could react further, the amulet began to slowly meld into her flesh, disappearing entirely. She gasped, her wrist now bare, the amulet's presence hidden from the world.

Startled and bewildered, she quickly hid her wrist beneath her sleeve. Trina, bemused, inquired, "What's going on, Tori?"

Tori couldn't find the words to explain the inexplicable transformation, so she mumbled, "I don't know, Trina. Let's go."

They quietly mumbled their thanks to the shopkeeper, whose expression remained serene, and left the store, leaving the amulet's mysterious enchantment now an inexplicable part of Tori's life. She had unwittingly embarked on a journey filled with secrets and unexpected powers, all while Trina watched in wonder and anticipation.
