After we left this place of the Unknown, we went back home. My actual home. I went upstairs and into my room one time.
Alot of thoughts been running through my mind, Well beside that I'm the next SEEKER!
Wait! But I don't even know what's a seeker.I went in grandma's room but she was reading another strange book.
"What's that for now?" I asked.
She looked up at me with a confused looked on my face. "It's a bible,"she said looking at me.
"Oh! Well.... well I knew that,it looked a bit different okay!" I said trying to cover up my shame.
"Anyways grandma, reason I'm here is because the "man" said I'm the next seeker right? But seeker of what? And what exactly is a seeker? "
"Wow, you really now open a supernatural book or something?" She said making me feel stupid a little. Well alottt!
She started to speak; " The seeker of "The book of Magic". Who ever has that book, will be the most powerful person in the world. It's filled with all kinds of spell and can do alot of good or bad. However, if it's fall in the wrong hands, the universe can be destroyed......for good."
At that point in time, I didn't asked no question. I just left and went in my room.
"Glad to see you took it well," She shouted.
I went to bed and curled up tight trying to brush off the words Grandma just said.
The next morning, I went downstairs kinda missing mommy and daddy. The last I've heard from them is when grandma told me that they will be staying a while longer on their trip to Las Vegas.
We need to stop this bullshit right now! This unknown shit is getting to my head. I went in Grandma's room but she wasn't there. I grabbed my robe and went outside. "She's probably outside" I thought to myself.
I went outside by the swing but she wasn't there.
"This isn't like her."
Then suddenly my mind turned to the other house across the bridge. I walked over it and took a deep breath before entering the house.
I peeped through the window and saw her talking but I didn't see anyone in the room that she was in. I went inside the house and called her.
"Shhhh," she said putting her index finger across her lips.
I walked quietly and looked that what she was observing.
I took a deep gulped.
I was alone with the boy?
I saw the boy next to my bed,in my room. That's correct. My room. What my mother built for me!
"He's observing a way to open the book but he can't do that without me. He don't know that I am connected with the book." she whispered.
We stood there looking at him but all he was doing is looking around the house. "Like if he will find anything " I scoffed.
At that same time, he pushed something in thr wall and another door opened.
"WHATTTTT! Ugh, I must stop saying things into existence," I said.
The boy, yeah I still call him the boy. Not my 'brother' or 'friend '. Heck, I don't even know his name.
We watch as he went on the door and out of it. He kneeled to the ground and then the unknown guy appeared. I was freaked. I mean the door was like a protal to the unknown lair.
Grandma and I need to figure out a plan ASAP. I can't take this may longer. I couldn't go to school because if all this drama. I can't have a boyfriend to annoy and I most certainly can't sleep without being scared or having a fear of something grabbing my foot and pulling me under bed. I don't wanna be the next seeker. I I wanna graduate, have a job, a family and a normal death like eveyone else.
I wish I had a normal life. For once, I've feel like nothing.
Grandma and I headed home and had some food. I wasn't in the mood to speak or be questioned so I stayed quietly.
I told her I wanted some alone time so I went and swing a little. With my thoughts.
I wonder if there is a way by taking the book and destroying the seeker? Like is there anything in the book? With grandma force and my force, we can destroy this thing and get this seeker shit out of me.
I ran inside and asked my grandmother.
Good news.
She said it's worth a shot.
We grabbed the book and look through it as if our lives depend on it.
Wait...It did.
Then something caught our eyes. "The spell of disaster?" I asked.
"Seems like a pretty powerful spell to me. It might just work."grandma said with a bit of excitement.
The spell wasn't long but it's power, my power and grandma power, it can destroy anything.
We bend the page and hid the book.
Oh, did I forgot to tell you that we seal the door? Yeah, the portal to the *Devil*.It was about to hit night. We needed a plan. A plan that one will work.
One that's gonna work very fact because mom and dad is coming home in a few days and trust me, they do not wanna hear about demon and a deal they made with the devil. Also, taht would ruin the relationship between grandma and mom.
"So hears the plan," grandma said. "I will summon the Unknown, keep him distracted. Meanwhile, you will bring the spell that I will write on a piece of paper and then you will run and grab my hand. We say it, kill the Evil and it's minions and then we can head home."
"Sounds like a risky plan," I said.
"It's worth it."
