To The Stars (Book 1)

Chapter 9: Bree's blog

The screams got louder and louder as we got closer. I stopped in surprise, my jaw wide open. A girl with long blonde hair was floating in the sky, a sinister grin on her face, her hands raised. A shadow had wrapped itself around her feet, and had lengthened into a demon like creature with an evil smile. It's dark teeth were bared, and it was looking hungrily at Bree.

"Um..." i looked around for anything that would help. I spied a long rope, probably left by a sailor. I started swinging it around.

"Hey!" I shouted. The girl opened her eyes and dropped down. "What?' She said annoyedly.

"Let go of her!" I screamed.

She smiled. "Nope."

Korey came forward. "She said," he gritted his teeth, "Let go of her."

"I already said no! Geez, can't you take a hint?"

"Nope." I grinned. I snatched Bree away from the shadow.

"Korey, take care of her!" I shouted over my shoulder as I hauled Bree up and behind a building. She fumbled with her phone and tapped it twice.

"BeachBabyBree, reporting live from behind some building. I was almost sacrificed or something but then this awesome girl saved me! What's your name?"

"Uhhh... Call me Stella." I smiled, gave a peace sign and went off to help Korey. "Stay hidden!" I shouted over my shoulder. She nodded and ran off.

Korey was making good time. He had pinned her with a pipe against a building and was leaning against the wall next to her, apparently waiting for me to show.

"Ugh, let me go!" She struggled against the pole.

I came up to her. "Only if you promise to stay out of trouble."

She considered it for a second. "Done." She sighed. I nodded, and Korey took the pole down. She scrambled off.

"Well done, Stella." Korey stepped off the wall. "I thought i had to do everything."

"And... I'm off. See ya Korey!" I said as I jumped back up on the rooftops.

I made it to my room in record time. "How do I get out of this?" I mumbled.

I fingered the charm. "Aha! The necklace!" I took it off, and I immediately transformed back into myself. I put it back on again, but nothing happened. "So I have to say 'To the Stars'?" I asked. I immediately transformed back into Stella. I took the locket off again. "Ah. So I have to say the-" I yawned at that point. "The keyword to transform." I put my pajamas on and fell into bed.
