Friday. Last day of the week. Almost over. 20 more minutes.
Sighing I slam my head against the desk trying not to scream in frustration as a new headache begins pounding my skull. The shouting kids probably didn't help either.
Study hall the last period of the day. Then to home to drug myself to sleep again. Same thing day after day.
If only I had known today would be different.
Watching I saw clouds gather in the sky a rippling vortex where lightning cracked. I shuddered thinking about walking home in that storm.
' Curse my siblings for getting us kicked off the bus.'
My spoiled twin sister and brother who were constantly fighting got engaged in a fist fight that got us suspended from the bus.
Permanently. They always do things like this and my parents never give a damn.
They could and have gotten away with everything. They have an F? No big deal. I have a B? Oh my fucking god the world blows up!
I know I'm adopted and all but a little equality goes a long way.
The bell rings as I grab my bag stuffed to the brim with books and covered in nerd and otaku badges. As soon as I walk outside it starts raining. Of course it does. If there's a God he hates me.
Sighing I pull up my hoodie starting to walk the five mile trip home. Jack and Emma are to young to walk home. But your 16 year old daughter can?
Suddenly thunder strikes right behind me I scream jumping at the close encounter with death.
Then out of smoke a huge creature that looks almost as if it was made of rock stands.
" Annabelle Greenleaf, Princess of Valencia and owner of the Earthen chaos stone I am here to collect you."
Blinking I stare at the..... Thing?
' What drugs am I on?'
" First don't call me Annabelle and second I don't think I like the idea of being 'collected'? So no thanks."
He I thinks it's a he. Is it a she maybe? Anyway he growls raising his fist in which lighting crackles,
" Then I will have no choice but to use force against you. My lord wants you and he always gets what he wants."
Lightning shoots at me and I prepare for my own unfair strange death. It never comes. Opening one eye I see another..... Really small thing staring down the rock monster.
A bright light bursts from the creatures hands forcing the monster back. Then the creature runs to me pulling on my hand.
" Hurry mistress the thunder giant will not be unconscious long."
" What in the name of nerd are you?!?"
Stopping the wrinkly being bows,
" mistress I am Atticus the house elf."
" A house what?"
Crashes are heard behind us and Atticus? Starts to run grabbing my hand, dragging me along. The ground shakes as we stumble along barley avoiding the flashes of light coming towards us.
" All will be explained mistress but please hold on we must jump now."
There is a deafening suction like sound as a cacophony of colors appears. The swirling vortex envelopes us as the last thing I hear is the raging screams of the thunder giant.
