Lasta Coop Pre-teen Stories

 Story Six
Lasta Coop And The Sandman

A year passed and Lasta had started to develop dark shadows under her eyes and she was thinner than most her age. One morning her mother tried to wake her to go to school but the girl did not wake. She tried again. She checked her pulse, she sighed.
Steady. That's good. Now the question is, why is she not waking up? She then was about to call the doctors until she looked back and to her confusion and horror a wound spontaneously opened up on the ten year old's cheek! Then another and another. She could do nothing but run down the stairs and scoop up the girl and attend to the wounds.
“Joseph! Call the hospital! Something's happening with Lasta!” she shouted and within the hour she was in the ambulance.
“Bizarre...if I didn't know any better I would say she is trapped in a state of unconsciousness.” said the doctor as he looked at the girl as another wound opened and then blood dripped from her back. “WHAT THE HELL!”

The night before Lasta climbed into bed as usual and as usual she felt her anxiety build in her chest as she closed her eyes. She let her mind relax into the world of dreams and as she shapes of her dream took form the first thing that she noticed was the colour. It was like real life and then something massive was about to hit her when she spotted sand drive it away and then in front of her was a man who looked as if he was controlling the sand which cut through the creature like small knives and the creature fell by her feet.
“What the-”
Lasta looked up to see a monochrome man in a silver suit.
“Lasta...No, you, you are the younger. Ah! Your timeline is difficult to follow...No! Wait! I now know why you are here. You told me about it...The evil sorcerer Morn...He's trapped you here using your tooth.” he said. “She...YOU! Told me to help you...”
“Who are you?” she asked.
“Well, I am Sandman and the fact that you are here means that this is the version I am meant to help most of all!” he introduced. “And by that I mean you take care of the Dream Demon, forged by the combination of the seven original from the days of old.”
Lasta nodded. “Right.”
“And when facing him try not to fear, it will create a door in your mind and do not doubt that you can defeat it.” he said.
The journey was long and by the time they reached the place Lasta had to take a break to rub her feet. She looked up at the tower which was made of black as if it was moulded into the shape that she saw before her eyes.
That looks better than the other one. She admitted as she felt a creeping dread slowly take it's seat in the pit of her stomach. She then felt something rise in her chest as she felt her heartbeat and breathing pattern increase.
I don't want to be here. I don't want to be here. Please get me out of here! I don't want to be here! Please Morn let me go! It's not my fault let me go! I just want to go home! She thought as she felt something choking her from inside her as her vision started to blur. She blinked out a tear and, fearing of looking weak wiped it away before the Sandman could see it.
“Are you ready?” he asked.
“Does it matter?” she asked. “I'm never going to get home without going in there and facing whatever it is that Morn has to offer. Plus, the sooner this is over with the better, after all I do need to get up.”
She then stood to her feet and brushed herself off. She then turned and walked through the doorway. To a room of nothing but darkness with traces of silver sculls with sharp teeth and bones of monsters all around. She spotted that the room was littered with debris which cut into the soles of Lasta's feet.
“Close your eyes, it will help you see.” Sandman said. Lasta nodded as she felt something yank her up by the back of her neck and for a moment she felt herself in the air and then she felt herself falling and she was about to land on the debris but just at the last moment she was tossed into the air again and then she fell onto the debris back first! Pain entered her whole body like an electric shock, one that sent tears down her cheeks as she backed away, cutting her palms and soles.
“No! No...no...no..No...NO!” she shouted as she saw the Frankenstein's monster before her. Her eyes opened out of her horror of it all.
“Well, well, well! Looks like we have a weak one!” she heard a voice say.
“I know, she's just a poor, poor little child far from home!” she heard another. She felt herself hiccuping as her arms shook.
“She's quite pitiful, I wish that we could keep her here forever, that is until he comes.” she heard another.
“But you heard the boss... She has to die.” she heard another just as her arms gave way and she landed on her back again. She then saw the shadows of what seemed to be a claw. She closed her eyes for a moment to see what she was looking at. Seeing that it was a claw of what looked like a dragon she then dared to look up to see that the demon had more than one head, it had six! What was worse was how close it was to her head!
“NO! Don't-DON'T! You-please!” she cried as she tried to raise her arms but the demon pushed her arms away.
“Oh...Don't worry, it won't be too painful!” said the fifth head as he twisted his head.
“NO PLEASE!” she cried as sand-grains hit the demon off her.
“Leave her alone! You need not kill her, your master is gone!” Sandman shouted. The demon raised one of his eyebrows and nodded. He then leaned in and whispered in her ear.
“Maybe next time.” he laughed as he pulled away leaving the trembling girl.
“I am afraid that I could not get your tooth but I can say that you can wake up now, but when you do, you shall need to rest and recuperate” he said.
“'Recuperate'?” Lasta asked.
“Yes for the injuries that you have sustained from this will appear in the World Of Awakening. So you must rest up.” he explained. “And one last thing before you go, when Morn binds you to an enemy if ether of you are to survive, you must learn to work together, and if you retain any selfishness you will become your mother.”
“What do you mean?” she asked as she woke up. She looked around and spotted that she was lying on her stomach and as she looked up she saw her adopted mother. She felt a stinging pain in her back and as she rose her hand and looked at the palm she knew that it was not an ordinary dream.
WHAT! I'm bleeding? Does that mean that I could have died? In my very own dream? If so, then I really do need to get back that tooth and destroy any other teeth that I loose. C'mon Tooth Fairy what the Hell are you doing?

Scar Parents Fight Part Three

  Hunter’s Defence  Scar opened her eyes. She then walked down the stairs. She slowly took out her homework, just to take her mind off the day before she started doing it. She started with her maths to fode her mind to focus. She then moved onto literacy. After she had done both her mind felt sharp and clear of all of the upset. She looked up, it was half past seven. She then took a slice of bread. She then put it in the toaster and pulled out a tin of beans. Half of them had already been eaten the day feforeshe then put it in the bowl and then put it in the microwave for a minute. As she waited she picked up a newspaper. Three women arrested. They claimed to be witches yet none have any drugs in their system. They were arrested  for killing four children. When asked why they claimed  it was to obtain power. So they've been arrested. Good! She heard the beeping and soon put the beans on the plate then took the toast out and soon took out a fork. After ripping the toast in half she

The Nine Dragons The Serpent Dragon Part Three

  The Boa Army Loc was working hard in the field. It was getting to evening time. She had found that she liked working there as a farmer. There was just something so satisfying in doing hard work and made the food taste better and she slept better too. She could see herself doing this for the rest of her life however long that would be, yet she knew that she could not. Regardless of how much she liked the village and the people there. She had noticed that the people there looked almost like the people in her world just without any pupils and they were weaker too. She also noticed that despite this, they were all hard working and nothing was eaten until they had done their work. During this time she had completely recovered her whole energy and strength from all of the battles that she had on that day. She had also been able to gather her thoughts and psychology recovered and was able to have her time of mourning her losses from her rebellion. Yet she found that this might have been due

Doormaze Drage The Purple Artefacts Part Six

 The Purple Monster  “Why?” “Open the book and put all of the other Purple Artefacts into the page that it fits.” Doormaze nodded as she opened the book. On the first page as a hole where she put the Purple Purl in. The page glowed and for a moment. When the glowing died down the purl was in the page, almost like a picture. She then turned another page. There was another hole with a flower hole in. She then placed the Purple Flower in. It glowed and soon the flower was in the book. She turned the page, where she placed the Purple Feather in.  Once it became a picture the book glowed. Soon light flooded the room. All had to close their eyes as the light became far too bright. Then Doormaze no longer felt the book in her hands. She opened her eyes to see a light above her hands almost like a miniature star. What is this? Then it became so bright she had to close her eyes again. Then she felt something covering her body. It felt light and comfortable. Her eyes opened to see that she was c

Doormaze Drage The Purple Artefacts Part Four

  The Purple Book They travelled down the cave in West Mountain for an entire day. Yet they did not leave until the following day. They left the cave to see a group of small houses. They were all small and in the style of King Garnet’s castle. “This is the abandoned town of Faiton. It’s here somewhere. So I think we will have to go in them to find it. You need not worry, there has not been a single person seen here in decades.” The other three nodded. “And what does this next artefact look like?” “It is a purple book. It is made from the same material as the crystal flower.” “Right. Then, let’s split up and explore every house.” Doormaze spoke, punching her fist. “And mark the door of the house that has been checked and leave the door open while it's being checked.” “Good thinking.” They all split and walked into the first house that was closest to them. They all started on the ground floor. Then the first floor and the second floor. Upon seeing nothing, they left the house. They p

Doormaze Drage The Purple Artefacts Part Three

  The Purple Flower They, because it was late when they reached the top chamber, decided to take a break. They lit a fire and, after cooking a small stew, started to eat. “Now, tomorrow, where to next?” “Well, Doormaze, we must travel over the Flower Bridge. It used tobe a small village on a large plot of land that the other mouth of the cave leads to. The houses were too and far between. It was mainly covered in many different purple flowers.” “And that’s why it’s called Flower Bridge?” “Well, that is because of the plot of land that joins the East Mountain, which we are in, and West Mountain, which is where the Purple Flower is in, is naturally formed.” “And there is nothing underneath it.” “No.” “Well,” She said, finishing her meal. “That’s something to sleep on.” After they all ate their meal,they went to sleep. Doormaze dreamed of Natalie again. She opened her, now dragon, eyes. She walked over to the dragons. They were sound asleep. She smiled as she turned away from them. She wa

Scar Parents Fight Part Four

  Mother’s Knife Scar woke. She saw Morara right in front of her. She dived back as she punched her. She tried to unbuckle, yet she noticed that she soon noticed that it was jammed. She tried to pull the belt but that too was jammed. She tried to pull it again and again and again but it did nothing. She looked up in fear as she saw the knife coming at her. She quickly dived out of the way then the knife turned to her. She tried to punch her but she caught her wrist. She tried to pull her hand out of her hand. Yet she was too strong. She saw the knife getting closer and closer. She hit the arm as hard as she could which made her drop the knife. She then finally pulled out more of her belt and fell out. She then felt a slit in her arm. She let out a whimper as she looked up at Morana went to stab her again and again. She kicked her again and again and again. She looked at both Alex, who was unconscious. She drove her hands to his belt and she pulled the belt and he hit his head as he fel

Scar Parents Fight Final Part

  Assassin’s Sacrifice  Charlotte, knowing that none of them had any time or chance to call an ambulance, ran. She knew where the hospital was and that none of them had any time to lose. She ran down the street as fast as she could. Yet it must have been obvious where she was running to as Morana looked at her innanyer and knew in that moment she would kill to stop her from going there.  Her parents had the exact expression on their faces when she had to stop pretending that she was a boy. After all, they always wanted a boy and when she was born a girl they tried to turn her into one. But the only thing that reminded them that she was a girl was her name, which they shortened to Charlie at one point. Just to keep the illusion that she was a boy alive in their deluded minds. The only thing that got her out of that situation was the series of dead girls that were her sisters and only one son being alive at the cost of her neglect. Van Kira, she remembered his name was. “Oh no you don’t!
