Chapter 1

As he gets off the bus he makes his way within the depths of Zuzu city, he glances around to make sure no one has been following him. He follows the directions he got within a letter left in his mailbox down into a side alley. On the alley floor cardboard boxes and old cans of jojo cola are scattered around in the small alleyway. He slowly walks as a small dark purple tent comes into view sitting at the end of the alley, lit around are lanterns floating with fire magic within them. Like a moth to a flame he walks without a word then pauses as he hears a voice "I've been expecting you… please come in…" He follows the voice's directions as he comes in and sees the oracle at her table, crystal ball in hand. Her eyes meet his, an uneasy feeling falls between them "I believe you needed some assistance with a certain *problem.* don't you?" He nods at her as she motions for him to take a seat.

She look at him as her eyes glow red "I can make you a deal.. but it will cost you something in return…" he looks down as he puts a bag of gold coins, a couple of gems and a few magical ingredients on the table. She smirks as she checks everything slowly and raises her hand "a deal is a deal." His stomach sinks as he thinks about it, an ominous feeling lingers around him until he shakes his head, clearing his troubled thoughts. He moves his hand up and shakes hers, the feeling of her hand is clammy, she grins as a silver like chain appears out of thin air and quickly wraps their hands tightly, it pushes against their skin as it leaves an imprint underneath "No refunds. I'll take care of it as soon as you go home." As he leaves she teleport him home, the magic draining his energy and a bit of his life. He walks in and yawns changing into some pajamas and then shoots for his bed. As he drifts off to sleep, he doesn't realized that his actions today will have grave consequences within the future for him…
