Shelby ( shubble ) 's POV
Beep!

Beep!
' gosh! Why do my parents insist I wake up this early!' I brought my hand down onto my alarm clock, hitting snooze. " SHELBY! COME DOWN HERE PLEASE!" My mother yelled. I groaned and got out of bed. I walked over to my wardrobe, and picked out a pair of black skinny jeans, a white T- Shirt, and a pair of black combat boots. Then, I brushed my teeth and hair. Taking a quick glance at the mirror, I decided this was good enough. " SHELBY!" " COMING MOM!" I love my mom, but she can grow extremely impatient. I sighed, and looked over at my bed. I felt like I was forgetting something.... A soft, golden glow caught my eye. A necklace? I grabbed the necklace and realized it had a note connected to it.... Shelby Grace,
You have been chosen as a eight. If you put on this necklace, you will obtain the powers of  lightning. Once you put on the necklace you cannot take it off. If you put it on, good luck. I will be waiting at the shack in the woods.
The note also had a map, a guide to the shack, I guess. Pocketing the map and necklace, I headed downstairs. I was greeting by my mom and dad. " Sweetie, we will have to go to the Desiro Village for a while for business." My mom said. " how long will you be gone?" I asked. " about six months, at least." Replied my mother. I nodded. As we said our goodbyes, I felt around my pocket, the necklace was still there. ' maybe I can start new, in a new life' I want to put the necklace on. I peeked out the window, my parents were specks in the sunrise. ' far enough' I thought to myself. I released the clamp of the necklace and put it around my neck, a soft glow filled the room. I had made my choice, there was no going back.
