Gregor and the prophecy of returning (fan-fic by Hayden Daniels)

Chapter 1

This is a fan-fic from the underland chronicles by Suzanne Collins. Most of the characters are hers except the ones I made up.(if I make up any)

None of this will make sense if you haven't read all 5 books in the underland chronicles.

I will try to update as soon as possible. :D

This book is written by Hayden Daniels (me). This is my first book so tell me what I need to improve. I'm only in grade 7 so don't expect very much. :D

Oh yeah, I almost forgot Gregor now lives in Virginia.(heh heh bit late for that eh.)

ENJOY

Chapter 1

I was pushed from behind. Before I knew it I was falling into a deep dark hole. I could see the ground now. I screamed for Ares, but then I realise Ares is dead. I was about to hit the ground. 3...2...1....

I wake up covered in sweat, another nightmare. They haven't stopped since I left the underland, the land under New York, where giant rats, cockroaches, bats, mice, ants and heaps more giant animals live with humans. It had been two years and ten months exactly since I left Vikus, Ripred, Mareth, Hazard, Howard and Luxa. I've already been through five prophecies: the prophecy of grey, the prophecy of bane, the prophecy of blood, the prophecy of time and the weird one that the underlanders thought was a nursery rhyme to do with cake. I have scars all over my body to prove this, but I never showed anyone, and those who I do, I say it was a car crash.

I check the time, it read 5:23am. I click my tongue and the sound bounces off something and forms a picture in my mind so I can see in the dark. Echolocation. This helps me see where I am while I go for an early morning jog to my school and back. My breathing is heavy enough so I don't need to click. I need to get home early because my school is staying a few nights New York.

I get home at 6:17am. Mum is making pancakes in the kitchen.
"Where have you been?" Mum asks
"I went for a jog to the school and back."
"Well it's a big day for you today,"she continues,"oh, and after you have breakfast lizzie and boots-"
"IT'S MAGGIE!!!!" My sister cuts her off
"Lizzie and Maggie have something that will help you in New York. I do not know what it is, they will not show me."She says slightly angered.
"Hmm, I wonder what it could be?"I think

After breakfast Boots and Lizzie approach me holding a box.
"It's from Mrs. Cormaci and its addressed to you." Lizzie said as she handed me the box. Mrs Cormaci is a friend that we had in New York. She helped me and my family through all the tough times we had, overland, and underland. I look inside the box, there are twelve batteries, two flashlights (the good kind), some cookies and a pocket knife. It also has a note in it. The note says.

Dear Gregor
I heard you were coming to New York and I thought you might want to be prepared if anyone comes with you. I hope you know where I'm talking about, maybe the flashlight might give you a hint.

P.S.
Visit me before you go there.

Love Mrs Cormaci

At that moment I knew where I wanted to go, and what I wanted to do, the only question is how.
