Sorcellerie

Tis' a dark and scary time, for those who are outside the walls of, Ethitan. Ethitan was a giant facility full of hypro-beds. A hypro-bed is a machine that the "Chosen five" would someday sleep for eight hundred years. The chosen five were normal people before "they" came and took it away. The chosen five had no chance against fifteen fully grown men. Since the five were only about six to nine when they were forced to be taken from their homes in the mountains. The five struggled and fought for the youngest one. His name was Tommy Felgo. Tommy was only three, but the fastest pair of legs. Tommy, ran faster than the rest of the five had ever seen. The five had lived together for their whole lives and taken care of each other. The eldest, Kyra Motosuah, Had been with these people once before and escaped. Unfortunately, she had been "poisoned" already. Everybody thought she was possess by an evil spirit. She was just a normal child like any other. Only she believed she could fly, Nobody believed her but, Tommy. He said: If you leave this awful place, Will you take me with you?: She nodded and walked away. Kyra, Never spoke, Never told anyone what had happened at that awful facility. She doesn't plan to tell anyone either.

The men took them to a enormous factory half underground. With a hundred and fifty rooms on all ten floors. The biggest building these children had ever seen. Of course that's not saying much. The children had only been into the village once in their whole lives. Sometimes if they were very lucky, Their great grandfather would bring them a piece of candy. Unfortunately, their great grandfather died in the war three years back. They have been all alone in that small little house for nine years. Each year a load of supplies would arrive at their front door, Nobody really knew where it came from but the village people say that an angel flew from the sky and dropped it there for them. The children believed it was Santa, Nobody believed the Five about anything. So, that year the eldest child, Kyra decided to leave the small house and find food for her little syblings. They all wondered as Kyra walked down that old dusty road if she would ever return. Two years had passed and, Kyra was still not home from her quest, Late on October 20th, Kyra arrived home and opened the door quietly afraid of waking them up but when she opened it, All there was to see was a small blanket laying of the floor and sevral left over oranges scattered all over the floor. Kyra couldn't believe this had happened, They took her dear little brothers away. She was scared, just how long where they gone. How much time have they spent with those awful people. Kyra's mind was overloaded with thoughts of how she would manage to get them back. All that night she stared at the roof and wondered if she could find the way to that Facility. She suddenly remembered she could use her "Wings". But she didn't know if she could open them again, That was so long ago when she did that and it wasn't even on purpose. She could look in the attic for that small book of Magic that her great grandfather left her. She stored it away in there for she thought that people would judge her for reading it, The book's name: Sorcellerie. Which means, Sorcery in french, At least, That's what her grandfather told her, She doesn't know to trust in her grandfather's words or not. But that's all in the past, she thinks to herself all that night. In the morning she wakes to find the house quiet and uninhabited. So she gathers food and water and puts it in her backpack. She opens the door and there standing in front of her is a small boy. It was, Tommy! Tommy had managed to escape the grip of the man holding him and ran for his home. Kyra just stood there and looked at the small boy standing in front of her. What are you doing here? Said, Tommy. Kyra just watched him. Oh that's right, Said tommy. I forgot you don't talk. Kyra kneeled down and looked, Tommy in the eyes and said: Tommy, my dear brother, do you believe you can fly? Tommy stared at Kyra's big brown eyes and said: Yes, Kyra. I do believe so. Alright then, let's go get your brothers, shall we? And they set off in the morning sunlight, somewhat scared that they would never return. Later that day they where walking along a cliff in the mountainside. Tommy had felt something slither up his old ratty stocking. He slowly pulled his stocking up while he was watching his sister get water from a stream and felt a small tongue lick his finger. He looked down and immediately jumped up and started to shake his foot wildly. Kyra got up as fast as she could and grabs the small little snake from his sock and pulled it out. Oh, it's just a garter snake. She said trying to hold her laugh in. It startled me though! Said Tommy in return. No need to be afraid Tommy. I've in countered those alot on my way to the City. There really is no need to be afraid. Here. She said handing Tommy the bottle of water. Thank you. How much farther is it to Ethitan? He said wonderingly. Well... Maybe if we hurry it might be about two days. WHAT!? Two days...? Well maybe a little less if you stopped complaining and get off the ground. Tommy complained to himself while he walked through the large forest. The dark night came once again and brought with it a large silence running through the forest. The only sound was the coyotes howling in the background. Kyra fell asleep almost immediately. But Tommy could not sleep through the whole night. Finally the morning came and Tommy had gotten some mushrooms for Kyra to eat for breakfast. She woke ad all she heard was: Good morning sis! As she got up slowly he handed her a bowl of freshly picked mushrooms. She glared at them unhappily and said to Tommy: You do realize that these are poisonous, right? Tommy looks at the bowl and slightly sits on the ground. No... No i did not. He takes the bowl and throws the mushrooms over the edge of a cliff and puts the bowl down on a rock. By the way Tommy. Kyra said wonderingly. Where on earth did you even get that small bowl? He looked at Kyra. And the pointed to a small shed over off the cliff he had just thrown the mushrooms off of. I wonder what that's doing down there. Kyra said. I'm not sure. Tommy replied. We should go investigate it! NO! Kyra shouted. Aw, why not? Because, you know there could be infected in there. But Kyra. You know they can't hurt us. Oh, i know that Tommy. But they would try to. Didn't you already go investigate? you got the bowl. Oh no! Tommy said laughing. The bowl was sitting outside of the shed. Kyra slowly put her palm to her face to try and wipe the sleepiness off herself. Alright... Fine. We can go for just a moment. Yay! Tommy said happily. As the walked down the hill to the shed at the bottom sitting next to an old tree stump carved out to an almost perfect chair just Tommy's size. Look Kyra! A seat. He walked over to it and sat down. Kyra didn't pay any attention to his actions. And slowly walked to the front door of the shed. She opened the door cautiously and entered. All that she saw was a couple of shelves hanging on the wall and some glass bottles on the old wooden table in the corner. There where old boots laying on the floor and some clothes. Kyra picked up a boot and looked at it carefully. She set the boot down and continued on searching through the old shed. Until she came across a small key. What does this go to...? Kyra whispered to herself. She tryed the front door, nothing. She looked around looking for some kind of keyhole. She thought to herself... Maybe it doesn't go to a door. Maybe it goes to a box. She looked for a box but all she found was some old socks and shirts inside the dresser. She looked under the bed and in the cabinets. She had had no luck. Tommy walked into the shed and slightly steps on the creaky floor and says to Kyra: Where do you think the person who lived here went? Kyra doesn't respond. She stands alone in the corner of the old shed and pulls down a string from the ceiling and a hatch came down from it. What is that? Asked Tommy. Kyra looked at Tommy with a small smile on her face. Tommy, looking back curiously. Are you actually going up there? Well, of course i am! Kyra sounded full of excitement. Tommy walked cautiously over to Kyra and looked up the ladder that led into the attic. Are you sure...? He asked. Nope! She said. What ever happened to adventure, Tommy? Well. I just don't feel right about this. Oh it will be fine. She said very full of encouragement. Just one look? Sigh. I suppose so. Said Tommy somewhat scared of what they might find up there. Kyra climbed up the ladder slowly with Tommy following behind her. They got to the top of it and found there was nothing in the attic. Well, that was a waist of time. Said Tommy angrily. Oh shush. She snapped. It wasn't THAT bad. Let's go. Tommy said. AS they turned around standing in the doorway was a man. This man didn't look very alive to them. He seemed a bit pail. Tommy clung to Kyra in fright. The man stood there for a second before noticing them. He looked up and saw Kyra's face and was reminded of his daughter. He spoke softly to them. May i ask... Why you are inside me house? Kyra was speechless. She thought to herself: There was something living here?! Why does he look so old? Why does he smell like that? He walked over the his table and put his basket of freshly cought fish on there and asked them if they would like to sit. Kyra shook her head and said quickly: No. I'm sorry we must be going now. So sorry to be in your house without permission. That's quite alright. He said laughing. He sat at the table watching Kyra not even noticing Tommy standing next to her. Excuse us. She said hurrying out the door. He got up and watched as they walked as fast as they could without running. He sat back down and looked over on the counter and saw that his key was gone. He searched around the little shed for it. But it was gone. Meanwhile Kyra holding the key in her hand she still wondered what it was to. Tommy said: Maybe it's to his box of treasure! Kyra glared at Tommy. He smiled and whent on. What? it's just an idea. He said happily. And so they carried on through the morning mist and onto the other side of the mountain.
