Dreamers Book 1: It Starts Today, Your Adventure!

Chapter 8: A Panic

(A relatable title with a crazy story. Regardless, I was trying to focus on how close and hard they are working together. Similar to that of other stories where these characters are learning from which is a good depiction of real life. We learn from fictional characters all the time. We read/watch their stories and see the characters grow. I always loved that! Anyway, enjoy!)

                   Well, the Dreamers began their work of training Alex and Nerissa. It was not going so well. Soren was trying to see if they could focus their powers and strike down a vase. However, the two of them shot an energy beam at Jay! Jay was knocked down and Sarah had to help him up.

"I HATE THIS LESSON!" Alex and Nerissa shouted annoyed.

Jackk and Mary tried to calm the two of them down.

"This is much harder than I thought" Nina mumbled to herself.

Ben and Jiwon sighed, but Soren had an idea.

"Why don't the guys take Alex away? The girls can train with Nerissa!" Soren suggested.

The Dreamers pondered on this, but Ben said "That might be risky. We are inexperienced at fighting and the darkness is growing stronger"

"However, we do need the practice" Jiwon refuted.

The Dreamers were eager. After Jiwon had convinced Ben to let them train separately, the girl Dreamers were at the playground outside of the school. So far, Nerissa had done well at controlling her new powers.

"This is great! She's learning!" Nina exclaimed as she hugged her little sister.

"I didn't think it would that easy, but I guess it was" Sarah said amazed.

However, three girls ran out of the school. Nerissa let go of Nina and ran to them.

"Who are they?" Sarah asked curiously.

"The girl with the black hair is Lauren Cab and the other girl is Addie. I have no idea why they are in a panic though" Nina answered as they walked to the girls.

Meanwhile, Alex was having a hard time practicing his powers. The boy Dreamers though the Game Room would be a good place to train, but Alex nearly destroyed the room.

"Well, that's not what I thought would happen" Connor admitted.

"He just needs practice" Soren reassured him.

Ben sighed as he cast a spell to fix the room. Jack was trying to think of another way to help Alex while Jay was mending himself. Alex noticed the boy Dreamers were talking to themselves, so he decided to slip out of the room. He ran out of the Common room and went to the library. The library was vast, and it was possible to get lost.

"Hey, Alex, you ok?" a boy with blonde hair asked.

"Oh, Gabe. I'm fine. I just needed some air" Alex said calmly, "Wait, why are you in the library? You don't like reading"

"Well, that's true. However, I needed to hide from the teachers" Gabe said.

Alex laughed. It was just like his friend to do that. However, they heard a loud crash! The two boys looked behind the bookshelf and saw a person in a black coat here!

"Is he a friend?" Gabe asked curiously.

"No, he's not and we need to get away from here" Alex said as he grab Gabe's hand.

The two boys were running to the exit of the library, but another person in a black coat appeared with a shield.

'Well, this is not what I thought would happen!" the man said as the other person in the black coat began to look around the library.
