Chapter 4: Finding Out


I can't believe what is happening right now. I can't understand why i did that. I can't even thing straight. We sit in darkness and the only noise is the sounds of hard breathing.

" Is it really you?" he says between breaths. I freeze. How can I answer that? Yeah, sure! I'm just gonna tell the enemy that I'm who he's looking for! NOT. what else can I say though?

"What are you talking about? who are yo-

" YOU KNOW EXACTLY WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR! HAND IT OVER NOW OR THERE WILL BE SERIOUS CONSEQUENCES!" He scream-whispers. I can't tell you how much he sounds like the average mother of  teenager. But I also can't tell you how afraid I am. He ACTUALLY found me.

" Its somewhere you'll never find it. I'm never handing it over and I'm not escaping anymore from you." I whisper. quickly I scooch over to the closet door and twist the knob as hard as possible. Locked. Then I hear shuffles of feet and feel my books slap to the ground. There is limited room to run and try to get out of this mess. I move around the closet avoiding the steps of the person attacking me. I feel him grab my arm tightly and his grip getting tighter.

" This doesn't have to happen. Just give me the grains of dust." he begs.
" If this doesn't have to happen, then don't let it. Just don't follow the orders you are given, be better than...this." Henry lets go of my arm and sits. I heard the thump of him sitting. I find the light and flick it on. He is crying. I take off my hood.

chapter 2 part 2

   
“Sorry mom, I can’t be late. Like you said, first day!” I said hesitantly. I grabbed my new school bag and rushed my way to the door. I don’t need my mom making me late… or serving me pancakes. I’m in high school. I can do it myself.

Suddenly, “Are you sure you don’t want any? They’re really good!”

“I’m fine mom, I can just walk past Starbucks or something.” I said annoyed. Although I lived on a whole other planet, that didn’t mean that I didn’t know all of the teen trends. I’m not an alien to teenage life!

“Well, Ok! Be safe.” She yelled out as I walked at a fast pace, trying to get away from my social life murderer.


When I walked out of the Starbucks with all of its smells of fresh bread and espresso, I looked across the street and there I saw: “RINGWOOD HIGH SCHOOL. HOME OF THE WILDCATS!” This is unbelievable. I am about to start a new everything! The past is in the trash. My dream is a reality. My life is about to change… Rapidly.

Chapter 3:part 2

" what do ya know! I got Jamison too. And I have locker 168!" I sigh. This couldn't get better..." I say under my breath. How could he not recognize me?! Maybe that's a good thing. Well I have to go before he realizes who I really am.

I walk at a faster pace to my locker so I won't have to make eye contact with the enemy. Once at my locker, I shove everything in the space that I have. Right when i am about to shut the door and practically run to my first hour class, I see a pen at the floor of my lower cubby hole. But not just red pen used for correcting the mistakes of students. A beautiful pen with a small compartment filled with dark blue substance. Suddenly, I hear the sound of two delinquent boys coming my way. Geez, how does Henry make friends that fast? Maybe with his little mind games that he uses on everyone he knows. I pick up the pen and begin to shut the locker door in fear of him and his clique seeing me. Then I realize: my door shuts on his side. What do I do? Just face your fear of being captured and sent back to your home to be...well I don't know what I'll be! I just slam the locker door anyway with my head down and began to walk to class.

"Hey! Girl! You!" I heard someone yell out right when i reached the classroom door. I looked up at the clock for the second time today, for a similar reason. 8:26. Sure, I have enough time to  talk... BUT NOT WITH HIM!!! Henry starts to walk over to me and away from his group of animal like friend.

"Hey, I didn't catch your name. I'm Henry by the way. Freshman, First day."
I hesitated. If he really knew my name, I'd blow my cover. But I can't live knowing that I have a fake identity because I am a wimp.

" Alana Burch. Freshman, first day, too." Oh god! What did I get myself into! Well time to say my goodb--- My train of though is cut off by the feeling of someone pulling my somewhere. Then I hear a door shut. The pulling has stopped.

Chapter 3: Finding Everything





     Whoa! This place is huge! I didn’t know whether to run about or stay true to my self promise: Keep it on the down low. I choose the second one. I don’t have time to be wondering around a place that I would be trapped in for FOUR years. I put on my American eagle hoodie I got for back to school shopping. I could tell where I was going because my eyes were barely covered for that purpose. I made my way to the desk where I could get my locker when I think I saw my life end before my eyes. The Black Forest king has two sons and a daughter. One of his sons, Henry is very loyal to his father. Apparently so loyal that he flew here to capture me and send me back to Korey for my "Ultimate Death". Henry and I are pretty much the same. We both turn out to be 9th graders, and we both turned out to go to the same high school. Oh gosh. We end up at the same directory table and get our locker number, and teacher at the same time. Now my hoodie is. So far over my face, all I see is the American eagle logo on the outside of my hood. 

"Man oh man, I got locker 167 and mrs. Jamison. What about you?" He turns his head in my direction. Is he talking to me? My stomach knots up like a rope.

"Uh," my voice cracks.

Chapter 2: First Day



     " C'mon sweetie, time to wake up. First day at Earth school!" My mom exclaimed. She was right. Today was the day that depended all the other one's.

 My family got away with me when I took the sacred grains of black dust. The knights are looking for them too, to track me down from them. But we saw it coming and they escaped at the last minute. 
 
I jumped out of bed, excited but nervous. What would the kids think of me? I have to set a low profile. Don't get into trouble. Don't be known. Almost invisible. 

" What to wear? Sweats? Nah, too relaxed. Skirt? Oh gosh no! Too fancy. How about this?" I pushed all of the other unimportant clothing out of the way in my closet. There lay a regular outfit. Jeans and sweatshirt. Not too high of a profile. 

I walked down the stairs trying not to wake up my little sister, Kylie. Kylie is five and clueless. My parents told her that we moved to get a better life, which was true but in clueless five year old form. Kylie hasn't really developed fairy abilities. Like fast reflexes and all the mind tricks. Also teleportation, well, I haven't even developed that. Only mom and grandma Soph have. Only females can do that. Male faires pretty much do nothing, as usual. 

"Honey I made you pancakes for your first day! Eat up." I inched to the clock and looked sideways. 8:00. Only 30 minutes until my life is in the hands of a new world.
