A kid stumbles upon a whole new world. |
"Your coffee, Ms. Nichols." The waiter slowly handed the girl her drink. The girl smiled at him as she took it. "Thank you. I would like to have the bill now." she said. "Of course." said the waiter and he walked off. After which, she retreated to her book again. She slowly turned the page and a message jumped out at her. "Rena, I hope you're reading this. If you are, then that means that there is good and bad news. The bad news is that something has prevented me from coming back to Earth. The good news is that you can try and convince the police to search a certain place. (The place is inside of the story.) I'm counting on you, Rena Nichols. Don't let me down, ok?" "I promise." Rena silently said. Wiping a tear from her eye, she turned the page. "The following pages contain the tale of me in a foreign land and what exactly happened at that time. Please keep the pages intact. They are the only proof that this world exist..." -{Night 1: Arrival}- Note to self: Hitting head on concrete = BAD. I remember falling into a pit and smacking my head on something as hard as concrete. But, that is all I remember. If I'm dead, then please tell me I'm in heaven. "..ake....p....wake..up...." I heard a voice as soft and gentle as angels. I slowly opened my eyes to see a girl hovering over me. She looked like she was 17 or 18. She had hooded green eyes. Her silky, straight, jade green hair was being worn in a way that reminded me of a flowing river. She was no taller than me and I was five foot eleven. She had an hourglass shape, but what stood out the most was her clothing. It was mostly green and black surrounded by strange symbols. I sat up with difficulty. "Ugh.. Who... are you? An angel?" The girl giggled. "Hardly. My name is Ephion, the Caretaker." I blinked. "Okay, makes enough sense. Can you tell me where I am?" Ephion smiled. "I forgot you're a Eanite. Can you walk?" I nodded. "Then, follow me." I obeyed and walked after her. She pressed a button and the floor shifted around us. I thought to be scared but then, I figured out what it was. It was an elevator. We slowly ascended onto a cliff and what I saw was unbelievable. "Welcome to Tyr Zeta, the City of the Seven Fortresses." I was in shock. Below my feet lay a giant empire with building and factories. Bustling people going here and there, minding their own business. Cars flying across the highway. "This... this is insane! How did you guys build all this?" "We have our ways. The city is respected for its advanced woodworking and mechanic skills. All those cars you see "flying" down the highway are made of a high density wood. Once they start, they won't stop by outside influence. They can only be stopped from the inside and only by using our braking system. This place was lost for a time. It was destroyed in a civil war. We just found it and revived it." |
