Christine Rivers And The Chariot Of Flames

Chap 1: Why is that monster following us?

Hi, my name is Christine Rivers and I'm a loner. I have a friend who's name is Logan Andrews and I met him when I was six. I ran away when I was five and I'm thirteen right now. The thing is that there is a monster following us.

First, let me tell you a bit about me. When I ran away, right outside the door was a black iron sword and, it was hovering! I quickly grabbed it out of the air and when I held it, it was a perfect fit for me. So, I thought it would be cool if it could become a necklace with the sword as a pendant! And it became a necklace EXACTLY how I imagined it as! That was a real shock for me.

But here I am right now, with Logan here. We were running across the streets because right there and there,was a sort of glowering blob in the colour of green following us. We stopped for a sec to catch our breath, cuz the blobs seemed to be going the other way.

' Phew! Atleast the blobs seemed to have left us! My silver sword is getting really tired! Where in the world is there going to be space for people like us? Freaks? Wackos? Lunatics? Hoaxs? Huh Christy? Can you tell me?' Logan asked.

Logan calls me Christy because I've been there with him for seven years. Now, let me tell you how he looks and how I look.
He has soft brownish hair and greenish- blue eyes. We always wear the same thing cuz we don't have money, you know? He was wearing a green t-shirt and some jeans with black and white converses. I on the other hand, was wearing a grey t-shirt with some jeans too and some denim converses. Oh, and I also have brownish sort of hair which is naturally curled and strait at the same time. Of course, I knew the colour of my eyes as being complimented to by millions of times by strangers. My eyes were kaleidoscopic. Yes, they were.
Anyway, we headed into a downtown cafe. ( in New York )
We have a friend there who gives us food, and also without whom we would have been dead. To answer Logan's question I said,' I don't know about a place where we could live or IF THEY HAD ANY PLACE FOR US!' Logan smiled,'Man, I love that accent, it's so cute!' Oh yeah, I have a British accent which is why he was teasing me! Anyway, our friend.who worked in a cafe? Her name was Kylie and she has been my childhood friend and also, she has a part time job in Starbucks.'Let's call Kylie.' Logan said to me. 'Surez, Logz. Except for the fact that she's somehwere we do not know?' I answered.

'Don't. Call. Me. Logz.' He said, threateningly.

'Or what?' I asked.

'I don't know.'

He loves me too much!

'No I don't.'

Crud. Did I say that out loud?

'Yes you did.' Logan said.

Ugh! Why me, Bubblegum, why me?

I'm Atheist and that's why I don't say, 'Why me, God, why me?' Bubblegum is one of my swear words. So I use it. Along with M&Ms and Skittles. And Apple.

'Hey, lets get something to eat.' I said.

So we both headed towards the garbage area of the town.
