Laughs From The Heavens

Chapter 2: The Quest

-*+*-

Quentin opened his eyes and found himself on the floor in a fancy room. Quartz pillars held the roof up. There was a red carpet, leading up to a golden throne. A young man with a golden crown and scepter sat on that throne.

"Quentin. Me and the Silver City needs your help!" the young man's voice boomed

"How do you know my name? And why did you choose me for this quest?" Quentin asked, his voice cracking.

"I am Oliver, the king of clouds! I know everyone in the universe!" the king said. "I chose you because you are able to make others laugh!"

Quentin stared at the king confused. What does his ability have to do with the quest?

"The quest is for you to tame Storm, the mischievous angel. The way to tame him is to make him laugh at a good joke or show him the light of good." the king of clouds explained.

It all made sense to Quentin now.

"Storm has red and black wings, so he shouldn't be too hard to find." the king added.

"But I don't have wings like you guys do. How will I keep up with Storm?" Quentin asked.

The king smiled and waved his scepter twice. A faint glow appeared on Quentin's back. After a few minutes, the glow faded out and in its place, there were a pair of shimmering wings! The outside was a sky blue, while the feathers were a deep ocean blue. Once Quentin learned to fly, he set off on his quest, to tame Storm.
