 Kicked Out Loc did not know how long she had been asleep, all she knew was that she ached all over and she could hardly move. She tried to raise her hand but she could not. She tried to get up but she could not do that either. It was as if she was trapped in stone. Yes as her eyes darted around she knew that it was not the case and her body had not yet fully recovered. She heard a roar of people like the roaring ocean just louder. Yet it became louder and louder and louder. This was followed by the scent of smoke. As her eyes looked around her, she could see all the fire all around her. Where did all of that come from ? She wondered. The lava giants ? She thought only to realise that she said it out loud as her body flipped up so fast that it caused a cramp in her stomach. She covered it. Then she felt hands grab her forearms. Shethen felt arms around her waist. “Yes, the army!” “What happened?” “You missed one.” “Nearly killed half the town if we hadn’t o’ tricked it into the poo...

 The Fire Giants  The Town woke up in the early morning. Loc walked in the front centre. She looked in the distance. She saw the dots of light in the distance. She saw that they were coming closer and closer and closer. She saw the dots become like flames like a line of candles. Yet as they came closer and closer they became humanoid figures. Yet as they came closer and closer they became bigger and bigger. Soon they looked like the size of men yet they kept coming closer and closer until that all looked the size of a house. Yet her stomach dropped as she realised that they had not yet reached the town. Yet tlas they got bigger and bigger she looked down at the pool, praying that it was deep enough. Then the first reached the pool she realised that they were the size of two houses! Then the first dropped into the pool. It quickly cooled as it charged on. This was followed by more and more and more. The front group soon ran on top of the one beneath then sank beneath the water....

The Town Next To Fire And Water  Loc had been on the road for a day. She had been glad to have eaten all that food before she left, as if she did not, then she would have been feeling painful hunger. She kept herself walking and walking and pushed past her aching legs. She had not even taken one break. She did not want to. No, she could not afford to. She knew that,as each moment went by, the next army could come and if she was sleeping on the job then she would have another repeat of the rock giants. Which she anything but wanted.  Then she came to a town in between a river of lava and a river of water. She noticed that the land here on the river’s side was lush and filled with life. She could see rows and rows of crops. She could see that the buildings were the same as the village. Right. This looks like a good place to rest. She thought as she looked at the side to see the sign post. Fai Town She raised her eyebrow. Fai Town? Interesting name.  She walked on as she ent...

 Rebuilding  The first thing that Loc did when she returned to the village was collect the dead. She picked up the first corpse and laid him down gently and then picked up the next one and laid him down. She moved onto the next one and laid her down. Then the next one and laid him down.  She then spotted the first child and felt a tug in her heart and tears started to come, but she had to push past it and she moved onto picking him up and resting him down next to the last. Then moved onto the next section. Only to see another child and laid her down next to him as her heart sank and she started to feel more tears coming. She turned to see another and another and another and, as she laid them down, the tears overwhelmed her.  Soon she could not see through the tears. Yet she pushed on and on and laid one down after the other. Tears started to suffocate her. Then a body slipped. She looked up to it with anguish as she tried to catch him. Only to see a pair of arms to h...

 Lava Dogs It was in the morning when Loc saw dots coming from a tunnel that she arrived at. She had been circling the rocky wall since six in the morning. She had just arrived at it at seven in the morning when she saw the yellow dot in the darkness. She heard the barking echo throughout the chamber. She drew Peble and saw them coming closer and closer and closer to her. She then saw the dots increase to a few to ten then twenty then thirty. Then it went onto fourth and soon it was fifty. They ran and ran and ran. They drew closer and closer. Soon she could see that they were dogs. She then ran and on and on. She saw bark as it dived at her. She swung her sword but it passed right through. Almost like it was passing through water. Then she collided with the ground. The next thing that she saw was the lava paw on her, burning the clothes. She saw it drive at her. She dived her head out of the way. Then she saw it dive to where her head was. She dived at her again and again and agai...

 This Village In The Volcano  Loc walked off the pool and saw a village on rock. She noticed horses without pupils trailing along with bags on their backs and people walking to and fro. They all had the same dead faces as the other villagers. The first thing that she noticed was the intense heat almost like she was in the Sand or Desert Planes. The second were the walls of rock surrounding her. That was when she looked up to see a rough circle surrounding the sky that was littered with silver stars. What a beautiful sky! “Can I help you dotty-eyed-one?” Asked a woman with a crisp English accent. She looked back to see a woman and a man. Both had bright orange hair and green eyes and rough but pale skin. The woman wore a thin piece of white leather covering her breasts and a skirt that kept her legs cool but just above the knees. Meanwhile the man wore a basic pair of shorts that were also white leather. “Yes. My name’s Loc.” “Ahi Sia.” Said the woman. “Tsu Sia.” said the man. ...

 The Broken Spell They soon arrived at the great hall of the mansion that was located in the centre. They saw thw ground was littered with bones that glowed green. Then as they looked up at the top of a pile of then in the centre back, they saw the witch. “Come, oh ee heroes, Come to death roes, Your lives I will take, Puppets I will make!” She sang like a crow that had been surrounded by heavy smokers. She looked down at tf group and smiled.  “See you survived! That’s a good group of heroenes!” She sang as she stood erect, too erect for a woman her age. “Now tell me, do you have what you’ve got to beat me, eh?” That was when the bones rose up and charged at the group. Burn willed the bones to be set alight. This took one out. Then Coalmine sent out a blast of fire at some of them. Then one group started climbing on one and another. Doormaze rushed to the group. She pulled out an axe that was on one of the walls and threw it down upon one like a drunk. This chopped one forearm...

 The Prince Once the three girls were at the top, her body relaxed. She looked down only to realise that she had just moved her eyes. She looked at her hand and opened and closed it. She did this again and again and again. “I can move!” “You can move?” “What happened?” “I couldn’t move because of what Greenleaf was doing.” “What do you mean?” “She was able to stop me from moving.” Coalmine widened her eyes as anger entered her eyes as she nodded. “That’s her power?” “Yes. It was utterly terrifying!” Her eyes widened as she became as pale as death. She looked to the side as she looked at the single door ahead of them. She let out a deep breath. “So that’s what we are dealing with?” “Yes. Do you think we should continue?” “Do we have a choice?” She let out a chuckle. “I guess not.” So they opened the door and saw a man in emerald green armour. His skin was golden and his eyes and his hair was the colour of sand with eyes a light shade of green. “Greenleaf! For the last time, I will n...

 The Emerald Mansion  It took the entire morning to get to the Emerald Mansion. It was as high as three mustard trees and as wide as two football fields. All of it was made of emerald. The centre had roof tiles and, at the corners, windows and bricks stuck out like towers had domed roofs. The double doors at the front had a pattern of a Venus fly trap and mistletoe. Weaving in and out of each other like snakes. At both ends were three rows of windows which were also made of emerald. They walked up to it. In front of them was a set of door handles. “ Don’t touch those dear. The way is something else! ” Doormaze jumped like a cat as she looked at the plants. She looked close at the heads of the mistletoe and stroked the vines. “Not there!” She looked at the heads of the mistletoe. “Not there.” Then she looked at the Venus fly trap heads and spotted that there were hinges at the root of each head. So she pulled at them. Then the doors opened. Inside there was one main corridor an...

 Turning Green It was night and the three girls were getting sleepier and sleepier as they walked on and on. They knew that they needed to go somewhere or set up camp to get some sleep. After all, they knew that if they did not they knew that they would turn up in the morning to kill the witch, only to be beaten because they were too tired. Yet what kept Doormaze going was that she did not want to waste any time and get this all done and done. After all, the sooner she got these adventures over and done with, the sooner that she could go home. Although, she knew that there was another reason why she wanted to get home as fast as she could. She did not want to let Natalie complete her transformation into a dragon. Her gut told her that if she arrived and she had become a dragon something bad would happen. That was when they were all hit. The girls slammed to the ground. They looked back to see a woman in a dirty olive green hooded cloak. She had wrinkly and mould infected skin and b...

The Green People  The one thing that Doormaze noticed when she woke up in the new universe was the green figures in the distance. She had to blino a few times to get rid of the blue in her sight. She has to lie there for a moment as she let her mind come round. Once she did, she noticed that the green figures were humanoid. Then she let herself get a closer look and noticed that they looked human exactly, just with green skin. Once she knew that she was ready, she sat up. She looked around to see that Coalmine and Burn were still unconscious. So she placed a hand on them. She patted them at first. However, upon that not working, she slapped them. This woke them both up. “What’d you do that for?” “You needed to be woken up.” “Oh.” They all walked to the green people. “Hello.” That was when a woman looked at them. Her eyes widened. “How is your skin not green yet?” “What?” They frowned. “What?” “Are you not under Greenleaf’s curse?” Doormaze frowned. “Who’s Greenleaf?” “The witch th...

 A Closed Case And A Nasty Shock Within the hour they were taken to the police station where Scar handed in her phone, which had been on and recorded everything. She and the twins explained everything to them. Then a police officer, Detective Smith, walked in. “Well, Bea, Brit, what are youfoung here?” “Sorry dad, it’s just Scar was investigating that dead guy Bea saw get killed the other day.” “And ’cause she’s always in ’n’ out of hospital with terrible injuries.” “We were worried about her so we followed her.” He nodded with a stern frown. “But we didn’t know what we were getting into until we were caught! Promise!” “Well, your mum will be coming soon. She has been worried about you all afternoon. You know that she’s a busy woman and she gets worried when you don’t come home. Do you remember when you spent a whole day looking for that cat?” They looked down red and nodded. “Honestly, you’re lucky that Scar called ahead or I don’t know what would have happened!” That was when Br...

 Escape  “Scar, what’s going on?” Britannia asked. “Well, are you going to answer your sister?” “She’s not my sister.” That was when she felt a fist in her gut. “Are you going to answer her question?” She nodded with her head back. “They must be from Evil Organisation.” “Good! You’re good!” “Wasn’t hard to figure out. After all, who else would dress like that and arrange the murder of a man in such a way, and his wife seemed to look at me alarmed. Although I guess she now knows why.” He let out a laugh. “Well he was nosy for a cleaner, but once he found out all about our plans for you, he called the police. Once we were able to dispose of them we soon found out who talked. Once we did we knew that we could arrange his death to lure you into a trap.” “Guess it worked perfectly.” “Yes.” “B-but why?” Beatrice asked. “What do you even want from her?” “Tell me, are you Bill or Bliss?” “No!” “H-who are they?” “My adopted brother and sister. They looked a lot like you and they’re in ...

 Caught The first thing that Scar had noticed was the movement in the corner of her eye coming from the top of the warehouse. The next thing was the flash of light that was coming at her. She quickly dived out of the way. Then she looked down to see the smashed dart. Her mind became alert as she looked up. She then spotted the next one coming at her. She ran to the side. She then spotted that, below the window, was a man dressed in nothing but black, with his face covered by a helmet. He shot another at her. She continued to dodge one after the other. She looked at what he was on and saw the left with several files in. Quickly she ran to the shelves as fast as she could with all her will. She reached a corner and then kicked it as hard as she could. It shook. She hit it again and again and again. This made it shake again and again and again. Seeing that she was only shaking the shelves, she took out a box of files and threw it away. She ran on and took out another one and another o...

 The Following Of Two Britannia and Beatrice were worried about Scar when she arrived late for school. In fact, though they did not want to say it to her face, they had been for a long time. They had noticed that ever since they had met, that she seemed to never get a good night’s sleep. Then, after her mother died, it seemed she had not been seen without a bad injury. First there was that time when she had been badly shot, then she was brought to the hospital with a terrible knife wound with a fatal level of blood loss. Now she was investigating a murder! “Does that girl never get a break?” Beatrice exclaimed in class. Then she looked at Scar behind them. The circles under her eyes were getting worse by the day. Which gave her a scary look then she turned back. “Scar, do you ever get a break?” She looked at her and blinked. “What?” “Come on! Ever since we’ve known you, you seem to be getting life threatening injury after injury. So do you ever get a break?” She looked down and asi...

 The Investigation  The first thing that Scar did that Sunday morning was go to the scene of the crime. It was in the centre of an old church. She saw the yellow tape over the front door. She then walked to the window which was all smashed. She took a few steps back and ran and jumped right over the yellow tape. She then looked around and noticed that it had been a week since it had been used last. She looked at the foord on the floor and the hinges were all broken.  Looks like someone was trying to get in here in a hurry. Maybe Mr Cole was a man of faith? Possibly. So, if that is true then, he must have come here in hopes to seek protection from God? She then walked to the place where he was murdered. She then spotted that the way he fell was at the foot of the railings in front of the cross. He lay like he was in bed on his side. His eyes were closed. Her eyes dropped to the dint on the red carpet with the brown stains like chocolate milkshake. So that was where he died...

 The Client Scar was running. She saw an enlarged version of the witches that had raised and tormented her for the first five years of her life. This was followed by an enlarged version of Morana. They all had weapons in their hands . The witches had the knives they used to cut her and Morana had a gun that was shooting at her. She dodged a bullet only to feel the blade in her chest. She looked down to see the youngest witch with her pale smiling face. “Soon we will have you Mythos Puros!” Then BANG! BANG! BANG! Her eyes opened as she let out a sigh. Her body was covered in sweat. Oh good. It was only a dream. Then she heard the doorbell go off and soon she jumped off the sofa and turned off the TV then went to the door. She looked down slightly to see an old lady in a long black hooded coat.  Oh finally! Client! “Sorry. Come in, just water for a moment.” “Thank you!” She nodded as she ran up to her room. She then ran to her clothes and got dressed into her black jeans and whi...

 Sorrowful Rest Loc spent most of her time between sleep and rest in the underground library, as she tried to stop herself from crying. Looking at the whole place, Loc could not help but feel nostalgic for Billy’s Bookshop. She almost could not help but feel the expectation of the faen walking up to her asking her for what book she would like to buy and read this time. Yet this brought more tears as she had to remind herself that she was not in her world as she picked out the first book. She sat on a stone bench outside and looked at the book and opened it. In the year of three after the dragon  defeated the royals and has taken all our first born and killed them. Then another dragon of great beauty and  majesty carved out pits where she  regurgitated up a strange liquid that made up a series of pools. Then the  rock dragon did the same and put the dead firstborn in. Then they all grew  rock over their flesh and came out alive and as rock. Then, upon the or...

 The Rock Dragon  Loc and the other two arrived at where the rock dragon lay. It looked at them with glowing amber eyes and had the shape of a turtle that was large. It had a head the shape of a wolf and had a long tail with four rows of spikes shaping an X at the tip. It had a pair of wings tucked away, yet the body had become too large to fly. It may have been able to fly once upon a time, but not now. After years of being glutinous, it had grown too heavy for it’s body. Upon seeing them it charged at them, making it's body sway from side to side rapidly. They all moved out of the way. They ran to opposite corners. Then it turned around and looked at Shiro directly in the eye. Soon Loc ran and went to jump upon it’s back only to feel pain in her side. The next moment she slammed into the walls. Then a spike fell from the roof of the cave. Loc rolled out of the way and soon the itching flared up as she felt her bones being crushed. Yet then she saw another fall and another an...

 Burnt Pools They walked on and on. They walked to a set of large steps. They had to sit and slide down as they descended lower and lower. As they looked down the tunnel was getting lower and lower. Yet as they went lower and lower the light grew dimmer and dimmer. Soon it was completely dark all around them. Loc had to summon a ball of fire as the men travelled down further and further. Then had to put it out and felt for their hands to gude herdiwn before lighting the fire again. They did this again and again and again. Then they saw a dot of light ahead. Yet as they continued to descend, the dot of light became bigger and bigger and bigger. Soon it became a spot. Then they went down further and further and soon the light became like the sun in the sky. They continued and soon they saw the bottom of the stairs as they travelled on and on and on. Then they travelled closer and closer to the bottom. Soon their feet finally reached the last step. Then they flopped and panted at the ...
