Timothy Peters was a 16 year old boy. He was a scrawny boy with jet black hair and blue eyes. Timothy awoke from a good night's rest to the sound of the desperate screams of his beloved parents. Doran's army had arrived to take the land Timothy's family had lived on for over 500 years. When Timothy's father put up a fight Doran commanded him to be killed. Timothy was much more fortunate. Timothy silently jumped out of bed and looked down the long unlit hallway to the living room. He quietly snuck into the hallway and entered his parents room. The sight he saw was unfathomable. Blood, everywhere on everything, the blood of the people who raised him. He heard the sounds of footsteps coming from the hallway so he ran to a window. He jumped out the window and ran as fast as he could.
He ran towards the dark forest bordering the west side of his family's land but there was an army emerging out of it. Thousands of men marching with swords in hand. He ran as fast as he could for miles until he reached a dessert that was a few miles to the east of his town. He looked back and saw that there were soldiers following him. He ran as fast as he could. He looked behind him around every 5 minutes. Once he was about 3 miles into the desert the sun began to rise. He was beginning to be able to see the vast world of sand he was now in. With pillars of sand stacking up to 100 feet into the sky with dead trees on top. Timothy ran as fast as he could and left behind his life, friends, family and possessions. He ran past the towers of sand past the hills and valleys until the sun set.
Timothy looked around to try to spot some shelter. He had always heard rumors of a village out in the desert but as far as he could tell he was the only person within miles and as far as he could see there was nothing but sand. He went over to a tower of sand and laid down at its base and fell quickly asleep. Timothy dreamed about his parents and family being killed. He dreamed about the men who followed him and why Doran wanted the land so badly that he would kill for it. In the middle of the night Timothy was awoken by the sound of the tower cracking and shaking. Timothy jumped to the side and moved just in time to dodge a large piece of sandstone. As soon as Timothy recovered from his state of shock he was startled yet again by someone tapping him on the back.
"Hi" said a girl that looked to be around Timothy's age. She had dark brown hair and emerald green eyes. She was a little bit taller than Timothy was. Which was something he didn't see very often.
"You can't do that to someone in the middle of the night" said Timothy, clearly scared out of his mind.
"Oh sorry about that I was just testing your reflexes. Out here you have to move pretty quick". The girl replied
"What do you mean" said Timothy getting more and more worried by the second.
"Don't worry about it... Well on second thought maybe you should, ah who cares" said the girl.
"I care" said Timothy
The girl then proceeded to give Timothy a scroll.
"Good luck" said the girl and just as quickly as she came she disappeared into thin air. Timothy opened the scroll but was soon to realize the scroll was written in Greek but all of the sudden the words began to float off the page. They rearranged themselves and created new English words about 3 feet above the book. Timothy startled and confused dropped the book and the words all disappeared. When he picked the book back up and opened it the same thing happened. The floating page read"Dear Timothy
I am both sorrowful but overjoyed to announce to you that you my boy are now capable of entering a new world and ending the war that has started in your homeland. All you have to do is say these words,
" Enter into the newfound Kingdom and I will fight to end all pain and suffering. We the people of the Dark Realm must rise to end the reign of the two evil kings. With this power I vow to stop the war and take my rightful place as King of The Kingdom Of Galimore"
Will You Timothy Peter take on the enormous responsibility of becoming king of The Dark Realm and future King Of Galimore."
Sincerely Kiglea (The Wizard)"Timothy Was awestruck and confused. He relayed all the information he had just been given through his head several times but the shock never left him. Suddenly the towers of sand began to shake and the mountains of sand began to slide. Out of a nearby tower a dragon's tail emerged from the interior. . Timothy started to run the other direction but was stopped by a claw rising out of a mountain. As the giant beast rose into the air Timothy shrank and cowered in fear. Finally the head emerged and Timothy could see its whole body. Its feet were the size of cars with dark red scales wrapped all around them. Its Body the size of a bus with more dark red scales wrapping around its chest all the way to its back. Its head was the size of a van was wrapped in not so dark scales. Its nose released fire when he exhaled. His mouth had thousands of teeth the size of a normal man's arm. It had two short black horns coming out of its head but the scariest thing of all is that it transformed into a human wizard. How often do you see that.
