The school bell started to ring. I packed my thing and started making my way to the main doors. Halfway there I stopped and remembered the envelope the spy man gave me. I got the envelope out of my pocket. It had a red seal and a stamp with a two swords, each glowing a different color. One black and purple and the other white, green, and yellow. I broke the seal and slipped a note out. I went to a corner where there weren't much people. The note read:
The lurkers are following you, go to the back of your school at 4:00 pm. I will be there waiting. Hurry, time is short.
What kind of note was this? Was this the spy guy's note? Was Case pranking me again? Was the spy guy a crazy guy? And what's a lurker? Should I go there? So many questions.I flipped the note, hoping there was a message that it was a joke. Nothing. I slid the note back into the envelope. When I started making my way back to the main doors, there it was again. The shadow man. But instead of disappearing, it turned to my direction. The hairs on my neck stood. It started walking to my direction. I started to run to the front door, when two other shadows blocked my path. The other shadow was walking leisurely towards me, when a bright flash of light blinded me. The shadows disappeared for a while and then I remembered the note. Back of the school. I looked at my watch and it was 3:59. I ran towards the back door immediately. I looked back and saw the shadows reforming. Black tendrils of shadow coming out of the shadows' feet. A black tendril lashed at me and striked me on my left arm. My arm erupted in pain and a black wound formed on my arm. The black wound started spreading on my arm slowly. My eyes felt heavy and my legs felt like lead. I reached the door and opened it. The taxi driver that drove me to the school waited, wearing his fedora and trench coat. He got out a stick made of ivory. He ran to me and touched the tip of the stick to my arm and the pain and black wound immediately disappeared. He pointed the stick to the shadows, who were almost there to me, and shot out an arrow made of pure light. I had to shield my eyes with my hands to prevent getting blind. The arrow pierced the shadows and they dispersed immediately. He walked towards me while tucking the stick back to his pocket."Hello, Bank" he said with his deep manly voice.
"Who-Who are you?" I stuttered.
"I'm Hank Lemberst" he said "I'm a spy of Farygale"
He was a spy! Knew it! Wait, why was I gonna believe him? Well, I guess he did that fancy magic show. "How did you do those things?"
"Well, I'm one of the guardians of Farygale, I've been sent to fetch you"
"Why me?
He grinned "There are some things you don't know about yourself".
