Guardian of The Seer

The Key

Author's note: Okay I forgot to mention this in the prologue but I would suggest that you watch Madame Macabre creation "The Seer" before reading this because this fanfiction is continuing the 'Old' series. Also forgive me if the story isn't good ... This is the first time I actually write a fan-fic sooooo... Yeah. But anyways enough chit chat BACK TO THE STORY!!!!)

"I have a sinking feeling... That this key is going to lead to a lot more trouble..." said the 20 year old red head girl as she looked down at the key that was taped down in her book. A few days ago she was just another university student studying to be someone in life and just a few days before that her grandmother died not knowing why in her will she left her a book. But now... Now she knows that she is apart of something greater. That the balance of worlds depends on her!!! Her name is Korbyn Jumping Eagle and she is the new seer, surely she is capable of fulfilling this important role of keeping balance between the over realm and the under realm right? Well... that's the issue. Of course being a citizen of the over realm her entire life she was never told about her ever so important roll. So that ment that Korbyn wasn't prepared when the awakening happened. But don't worry human, your world won't fall apart just yet. "So what do you have to do with the key Korbyn?" said one of the proxies, which they call Masky. "I have to use it to open a safety deposit box that my grandma put the materials that I need in." Korbyn replied. "Then I assume that we should get on are way." Masky said. "Masky, I believe that it would be best if we wait until Jeffery recovered." said a deeper voice. Despite the fact that voice came from Masky's mouth Korbyn knew that it wasn't Masky. A tall slender pale man appeared behind the proxy. He wore a black suit, a red tie and had no face at all, he is the Slender Man. Masky turned around to look to him then to Jeffery that was in the kitchen eating a sandwich. On his white hoodie was dried blood that came from the wound from when he and Scarecrow were fighting. "Oh. Of course sir," said Masky who had almost forgotten Jeff. Jeff ate the last bite of his sandwich and responded, "Oh I'm fine. I can still babysit these two even if I'm injured." Korbyn gave him a glare. "Alright, however if you begin to bleed again I want you to come back here understand." said the Slender Man while Jeff just rolled his eyes and responded with a Fine," Have to go now. I have to go to the counsel to see what will happen to Scarecrow and if she has any information on Zalgo." "Oh okay, I guess I'll see you later then." said Korbyn. The Slender Man then walked to Scarecrow and asked her to come with him. "Of Course Sir," said Scarecrow and in the blink of an eye they were gone. "So were do we have to go to get what you need freckle face." said Jeff coming back to the room that they were in. Korbyn rolled her eyes, his out of character moment lasted a short time,"Well in case you're wondering, In my grandma's letter it mention a safety deposit box so I assume that we should go to her old bank which isn't far from here." Korbyn looked up to see that Jeff was already out the door," Alright freckles hurry up so I don't have to wait for both of you" Correction his out of character moment was too short. Korbyn got up to get her satchel then put the book with the dream catcher on it inside along with a few other items like keys, phone, ect. "Come on Masky. We need to get there before it gets dark." Then Korbyn walked out the door with Masky behind her. Hopefully, Korbyn thought, nobody will me with these two and freak out like my friend when she saw Masky. All we have to do is get there and come back that's all you have to do Korbyn.

That went better than I thought it would, thought Korbyn as she stood in front of the old looking building. Since the sun was setting there weren't many people out so it was rather easy to get to this bank. Like mentioned before is a old bank with vines growing on the wall and that musty old book smell, In fact Korbyn was surprised that the mayor didn't tear it down yet and build a new one. Korbyn then began to walk up the gray stone stairs and both Jeff and Masky followed. Inside it was like any other bank with a lobby, counter, and a few chairs for waiting despite how old the building looked on the outside "You two should wait outside until I come back. I don't want the bank security to come after us because they think your robbers." Jeff rolled his eyes," You seem to forget that no one can see me the way you do. Ahhhh Fine but you better hurry." "Don't worry Korbyn we will be fine." said Masky . "Good I'll be back." She said before walking in. At least I can tolerate Maskey but Jeff... God help me, thought Korbyn. Korbyn walked up to the counter," Umm... excuse me ma'am." The elderly aged women that was sitting on the other side looked up," Yes. How may I help you today?" Korbyn then began to pull out the key,"I need to open my grandmother's safety deposit box. Her name is Fala Jumping Eagel." The lady looked with a surprised look on her face and said," Your Fala's granddaughter? How could I have not noticed. You look so much like her." Korbyn forced a smile,"Yes I'm her but is it possible for me to open her deposit box if I have the key." The women smiled,"But of course as long as you have the key every thing should be fine." The women then proceeded to walk around the counter to meet Korbyn," Please follow me." The women said as she started walking to the back of the bank,"In here. Your grandmother's box number is number 1I alright." "Thank you." Korbyn replied and she went in the room that probably had hundreds of deposit boxes ,"I'm going to be here a while aren't I." After about fifteen minutes she found her grandmother's box,"Finally" Korbyn reached for the key inside of her satchel and pushed it in the keyhole. Inside of the box were a few seed packets, empty glass bottles, a map, an envelope, bandages, a, and another small book. "Good thing I brought my satchel then otherwise I wouldn't be able to bring all of this." Korbyn said as she started putting the items in her bag. She stopped when she grabbed the envelope, it said To: Korbyn. Korbyn hesitate to open it but once she did it read
