The Secret

Chapter 18: Havoc

It's the beginning of the end. The secret has been told and because of that, the entire world is going to come to an end. It is to be in havoc. Here Nelly and I are, tied up, unable to do anything.

"We have got to get out of here," I complain, "if we can get out of here, I might can stop Jeremy."

"Stop him? How?," Nelly says, confused, "You already told him the secret. How could you stop him?"

"Because I can," I say, brushing off the subject, "now, how can we escape?"

"There's a very sharp utensil on the table across the room," Nelly suggests.

"Alright," I sigh, "I could hop over there I guess."

I try to get up and I fail. I try to get up again, this time leaning more against the wall, and I finally am standing.

"Here I go," I say, hopping ridiculously over to the other side of the room.

I nearly fall but I catch my balance with the side of a table. I hop over to the utensil and use it to cut my arms and legs free. Finally.

"Ok," Nelly says impatiently, in a sarcastic tone, "I am still over here, you know."

"Right," I say, rushing over to her.

I untie her and then she stands up...still exposed.

"Um," I say, "we'll need to find some clothes for you."

Nelly giggles for a second, turning to a sarcastic comment again.

"You really think so?," Nelly says, "Because, I mean, you think it would be fine to just hop around town all open and free?"

"I know, now stop, and come on," I say, "there's a long coat over here that can do for a while. It's better than nothing."

"Fine," Nelly says.

Nelly and I run out of the house we are in and we steal a car on the street. We race and I pedal to the metal on our way to stop Jeremy.

"Okay," Nelly says, "I have had enough of being shut out on this secret. Tell me, who is Jeremy? How do you know him? And what is the secret?! You told Jeremy, I don't think it'll hurt to tell me."

"Alright," I sigh, "But I have to be quick. Jeremy is someone that looked for the secret and he got it from me shortly after my grandfather died and had told me the secret. I was inexperienced about this secret and he drugged me and managed to get it from me. It was a complete accident. Jeremy got the secret and ruled the world, he destroyed an entire country and the world was about to end."

"What happened?," Nelly asks.

"An angel stepped in and saved the world. He wiped the memory of this incident out of everyone's minds on earth," I start to explain more, "he then proceeded to say to me that if there was a third strike, in other words, if this happened again, he wouldn't step in and save everyone's lives."

"That's crazy," Nelly says, "but I believe you. You wouldn't lie. And that explains how you knew him because he searched for the secret. However, what exactly is the secret?"

I look at Nelly with a worried face as I begin to tell her the secret.
