Chapter 1: Death Day

Bella and her friends had been on a road trip in alaska for around 3 days now. she was accompanied by her friends Jax, Diamond and Killian. Today the road was extra slippy but they decided to go out anyway. Killian was driving along the road while Jax and diamond Chatted in the back, Bella sat between them, clearly annoyed. A little down the road Killian begins to feel tired since they got in the car to go somewhere in the dead of night. Killian's vision blurred and slowly, he drifted to sleep. Then, there was a ear peircingly loud horn. Killian snapped awake and saw a bright light, followed by darkness. There was a ding noise and the four friends stood around a bell and looked at eachother in confusion. Not moments ago they were all laughing and having fun in the car. What happened? Jax sat on the floor and immediately shot up realizing how cold it was, they all looked at each other, speechless and then, The bell goes off and they are all in separate rooms now. In this room stands nothing but one person and a table with cards on it. "Hello." An angelic voice says, as if inside their heads. "You sadly, have died. I am Ada, the goddess of wind. Today is not all sad, for you are not dead forever. You are being sent to a new world. That of a story in your old world. Here on the cards before you are things to choose to take with you. Or if you want you can imagine something you would like and i may grant you that aswell. Choose wisely." They all look at the cards and start shuffling through them, super strength, teleportation, infinite projectiles, laser eyes, there were so many. Killian grabbed a card that said he could blow things up with a giant explosion. Jax reached for the explosion card and then, it vanished. "i want this one miss!" Killian says. The card vanishes from his hand and Killian sits in silence, unable to speak or move, as if paralyzed. Diamond holds up a card with a shield made of diamond like crystals on it. "T-This one please." Diamond says, still in shock. The card vanishes from his hand and he sits in silence, paralyzed. Jax picks up a card with a bow on it that can kill anything in one arrow. "Lemme get this one." Jax says. The card vanishes from his hand and he stands up and walks in big circles singing a song, unaffected by the paralyzation. "Where are my friends?" Bella Asks. No response. "Where are they!?" Bella shouts, slamming her fist on the table in front of her "elsewhere" Ada says. "Well bring them to me!" Bella shouts, standing up. Then, Bella vanished. The silence turned to rustling and walking noises, people talking and children laughing. The friends all looked around. There they laid on the cold rocky floor, in a new world.

Chapter 2: Where are we?

Jax stands up immediately and reaches for his face, "at least i have this." Jax says touching his mask and headband. "Wait a sec where even am i?" Jax starts panicking, he sees a lady and walks towards her to ask where he was. Jax took only two steps before tripping over something. "OW!" Bella screams at Jax, "Oh hey Bella I'm looking for my friends Bella, Diamond, and Killian, can yo- BELLA!" Jax says, surprised that he found Bella. "Where even are we?" Bella asks Jax. "I dunno." Jax says confused. Bella and Jax both stand up and walk in a circle around the building they were in front of, trying to find their friends. They passed through an alley where they found diamond laying on the floor, drooling. Jax slung diamond over his shoulder and carried him into the building they were next to. Inside they found Killian laughing and drinking alcohol while an old lady looked at him with kind eyes. Killian turned to look at his three friends. "Oh HEYYYYYYY guysss!" Killian said with a slur to his words and rosy cheeks. "Gram gram these are friend!" Killian says to the old lady. "Hello kids." The lady says with a smile. "Um hello Killian's grandma." Bella says, confused. "I do not know this boy but he is nice." The old lady says. "Oh" Jax and Bella say at the same time "You are all my grandchildren, have a seat and a drink! I have a special quest for you all!" The lady says with a smile. "Okay.." Jax and Bella say, skeptically. Jax sets diamond down on a barstool, where he wakes up as soon as his face touches the cold granite countertop. "Huh" Diamond stutters quietly. "Shh go back to sleep" Bella says patting diamond on the head. Diamond falls asleep again, drooling on the table. "My quest for you kids is to go kill all those huge slime creatures, and bring back bits of slime, when you blend them they make the alcohol stronger!" The old lady says kindly. "Oh and you all can call me grandma." She says with a smile. "So can you do the task for me?" Grandma asks. "Nah seems boring" Jax says with a shrug. "I agree with jax" Bella says to Grandma. "Okay well you kids go order something to eat, just ring that bell." Grandma says kindly. "Okay" Jax says to grandma. Bella hits the bell and a hologram fades in, a handsome young man, covered in blue static looked at everyone with a smile and asked what they would like. They ordered as much food as possible because they were all starving. The friends all got their food around 3 minutes later, jax flicked diamond in the back of the head, which promptly woke him up. They all stared at Jax, waiting for him to remove the mask to eat. Jax reached for his mask, everyone watched, anticipating his face and then, Killian knocked over a glass, everyone looked at the shattered glass, startled by it. "Sorry" Killian said. They looked back at Jax and his mask was still on, but all his food was gone. "That was pretty good" Jax said, patting his stomach. The friends all got upset they didnt see his face but never the less they ate all of the food and they asked the bill. "One million credits please!" The hologram man asks with a smile on his face. "Sure thing! Hand him the money will ya Killian?" Jax asks Killian, jabbing him with his elbow. Killian reaches into his pocket and pulls out a ten credit coin and two one credit coins. "Killian." Jax says, staring at him with cold eyes. "Whaah?" Killian says, still drunken. "Wheres the rest of the money?" Jax asked with the same look of ice in his eyes. "He spent over thirty thousand credits on alcohol." Grandma said loudly from the back. "YOU WHAT?" Jax says slamming his fist on the table and standing up. Jax grabbed Killian by his shirt collar and looked him in the eye. "You are so ungodly lucky you are drunk and this is a public place because i'd pummel you in an instant." Jax said, his eyes piercing right through Killian. "Sorry" Killian says with a grin. Jax set down Killian and said, "well now what." "I know!" Bella says standing up and putting her hands down on the table, "Gram gram, we can do that quest for you!"
