Writing Something New For Me

[Frankie]

I... lately have been haveing these dreams. Unfortunatly they play like a tv show.... when one dream ends... the next one continues whats going on. I cant explain it.... but i dident want to forget it. So i decided to turn my far out dreams into a story...

Please post what you think





~~~~~~~~~~~~Oryan Dhani~~~~~~~~~~~


It was a normal day. The sun was over head beaming down on the earth. Only a few clouds drifted overhead as birds soared through the sky. The sky was blue and the wind was calm as people walked up and down the street doing their own things. The mix of hundreds of voices filled the air. Cars zipped here and there trying to get to their own destination.

Off in a small downtown rose garden on a bench sat a girl. Her long brown curly hair drifted across her face as she fed some birds. Her blue eyes shifted to the left and she rotated her head a bit and focused on a bird overhead. The shadows seemed to creep across her face. A kid went by on his skateboard causing the birds to scatter. She sighed and stood up and glanced at her watch. Grabbing her bag she heads for a cab.

People rushed and pushed on by as she flagged down a cab. It took her 3 tried for each time she got one either it would already have someone or someone else took it as she tried to enter it. She rolled her eyes at the nerve of those people as she slid inside.

?Where you headed miss?? The man at the wheel asks as she digs through her bag.

?Oh Harvest Square please.? She answers as she handed the man the needed money.

?Right. Oh so you have done this before well heavy traffic today so it might take some time.? He answers pointing at a large build up of people and cars.

?That?s fine I?m in no hurry. I just have to be there sometime today.? Leaning her head back she sighed and closed her eyes as the cab turned and passed a few cars and a large group of people.

Slowly they made their way through the sea of cars and into a part of town that looked old fashioned. The cab stops and she climbs out. Swinging her bag over one shoulder she crosses the street and walks into an old fashioned looking shop. The sign above the door read ?Jingles Malt Shoppe?. She went behind the counter and through swinging doors into the kitchen and greeted the old hound by the back door. He just lifted his heavy head and looked at her before yawning and flopping back down and falling asleep.

The girl leans down and pets his sun warmed fur and then puts on an apron. A guy walks in the back door and steps over the dog. He takes off a red baseball cap and stares the girl right in the eyes.

?Its about time Jessie. I got to open shop soon. Get to work.? He snarls as he goes to the front door and blocks it open with a small wedge of wood. He walks back to the counter and glances at all the old black and white pictures all over the walls. ?Quite an old place this is Jessie. You know I...? he began

?You started this shop when you were a young man with a dream of owning his own malt shop.? She repeated ?I have heard it all before Mr. Romero? She rolled her eyes at the daydreaming old man. She began cleaning the kitchen.

The kitchen seemed cold to Jessie as she swept the floor?Avoiding the dog. She glanced out the window and saw a few heavy rain clouds headed their way. She smiled for she loved the sweet smell of a fresh rain. She swept the dust out the back door and closed it just in time to see the first rain drop hit the pavement followed by many more. Then someone walked into the shop half wet. The hooded man closed his umbrella and walked over to the counter and took a seat. He left his hood on shielding his face from sight. ?One soda please? He muttered under his breath.
?Right on it sir. Do you have any preferences? Like What kind of soda would you like?? The old man asked sliding the hooded man a list of beverages.


?Ill have a cola.? The hooded man seemed troubled as he slid the list back to the old shop owner. He was breathing heavily like he had been running.

?One Cola Jessie and make it quick we don?t want to keep this kind young man waiting.? Mr. Romero hollered back at Jessie.

?Sure thing?? Jessie grabbed a large glass and filled it with old fashioned Cola and brought it up to the man. ?Here you go sir.? She smiled and then went back into the kitchen.

The hooded man looked up at her as she walked back into the kitchen. His yellow like eyes seemed to flicker as they shifted and located the shop owner. He lowered his head and finished the last of his drink. He sighed and placed a paper bag behind the counter when the owner and the girl were not looking and then placed the needed money on the counter. He slowly stood up and headed for the door.

?Have a good day sir.? Jessie called to him as the somewhat greedy owner gathered up the money and placed it in the cash register.

Hours seemed to fly by no one had stopped in that day. The rain drove most of them off. Jessie cleaned up the kitchen and placed her apron in its designated spot before petting the old dog one last time for the day. She went out the back door and started walking down a trash covered ally. The owner ran after her.

?Hey Jessie don?t leave your stuff behind the counter again. It clutters the place up? He yelled as he tossed her the paper bag he had found.

?But?? She said as she caught it. ?This is not mine.? She replied to thin air. The owner had already gone inside out of the drowning rain.

Jessie shrugged and opened the bag out of curiosity. She reached inside and pulled out a small cell phone. She glanced at it and was about to put it back into the bag when it began to ring.
The sudden ringing startled her and she glanced at the phone as it continued to ring. She brought it up to her hear slowly and hit the talk button.

?Hello?? She answered nervously.

?Hello Jessie I hope you had enough rest last night for your journey starts now.? A cold voice on the other end growls heavily.

?Who?Who is this, and how do you know my name?? Jessie stutters back nervously.

?I am no one important as of now, I know a lot more then your name my dear I know a lot more about you then you know about yourself.? The voice chuckles at his mysteriousness before hanging up.

?That was weird I wonder who that was.? Jessie mutters as she puts the phone in her pocket and continues down the ally.
Spooked by the phone call Jessie was about to throw the phone in a garbage can when something inside stopped her it was like something inside her said there was a reason for the phone. She thought for a bit and then slipped it into her pocket. She continued thinking about the phone call and why the phone was behind the counter. The she realized the one person to leave it there was the hooded man. She walked from the ally to a small, quiet, and empty street and passed a few drug stores and then a few apartment buildings. She stopped at one huge blue apartment and headed up a large set of wooden stairs and came to a red door. She pulled out her keys and unlocked the door.

She walked in and sat down on the couch and turned on the TV. Suddenly the phone rang again. She stared at its little screen to see if the phones caller id would pick anything up. She got nothing so upon the 4th ring she carefully hit the talk button and brought the phone to her ear again.

?Hello?? She mutters awaiting the strange voice again.

?I am surprised you still have the phone Jessie. But it?s for the better now listen up. One day you shall find yourself in a new place trapped like a rat. Seek shelter with Oryan Dhani he will guide the way.? The strange voice riddles along before hanging up

?Gosh what was with that? That made no sense. I am not going anywhere. What makes him say that?? She thinks as she sets the phone down on the coffee table.

As a bit of time passed she got over the disturbing phone call and she went to her bedroom closet. Sliding the panel doors aside she glances at the stuff inside. A wet suit, three oxygen tanks, scuba kits, and a surf board were neatly places inside the closet. Smiling to herself she grabbed the wet suit and put it on. Second she grabbed the surf board and her keys. Exiting the apartment she locks up and heads down the street to the local beach.

She passed a small indoor kiddy park that was closed for a few repairs. Slowly passing the large center street fountain she smiled. Carefully gripping the blue and yellow surf board under her right arm she reached the beach. Glancing at its emptiness Jessie shrugs and heads down across the sand.

?Weird? normally... this beach is packed. Why is it empty? Not a single person here.? Jessie asked herself as she slowly made her way to the cold crisp water.

With that she strapped the board to her leg and trudged through the water a ways and drops her board into the water before climbing on. Placing her hands in the water and letting her feel hang over she paddled outwards towards the waves. Once to the larger ones she would push the nose of the board downwards and let the wave flow over them as she went through the wave. Paddling to the best stop she stops and carefully turns her board around.

?Odd?I look a lot farther from shore then normal. I guess I was not paying attention.? She thought as she waited for the right moment.

The water slopped over the nose of the board as the waves passed her by. The calm sound of the ocean filled Jessie?s ears. It was extremely quiet except for the splashing and calm noises of the sea. Jessie took in a deep breath just to enjoy the air. After about 4 minutes she got her wave. In no time she was on her feet. But this time something was wrong.
Her balance was thrown off and she tumbled into the fierce wave. The current dragged her under but she could have sworn that she felt something pulling on her leg. Her body spiraled and twisted around in the water as she tried her best to regain herself and reach the surface. But the surface seemed to get farther and father away. It grew dim and Jessie?s vision was clouded by the darkness as she became light headed. Needing air she began to flail her arms in the only direction that she could think of?Up. Suddenly a sharp pain flashed through her body and she grew motionless as she slowly sank downwards.

[Shy]

[size=1]You have showed me this before, and I think it is really good Blanko. Sometimes dreams try to tell us things, so you just have to figure out what it is. My dreams have never been anywhere near as descriptive as yours though, I find it very interesting.

-Shy[/size]

[Frankie]

I know i have showed it to you before... but. ... since then i think i added some....

hmmm maybe not... anyways... mroe to come... later ...

[Sui Generis]

I like it. Its awesome. I agree with Shy. I haven't had one dream thats quite that descriptive. Again its great. I love it. You have a talent, of course you knew that. Anyways keep writing!

[Frankie]

Me... Have a Talent... Pft yeah right.....

Um..... Ill keep writeing if i keep dreaming



Edit:

Heres part or Part 2
----------------------------------------------------------

The moon beamed down on the beach where Jessie was now lying and she was soaked to the bone. The water washed up agents her motionless body and back again. The wind whistled through the beachside trees as a tiny crab scurries on past her. The breeze was warm and calm as Jessie?s fingers started twitching. Her hands began moving and she grabs handful of sand while gritting her teeth. Suddenly she began coughing up water as her upper body shot upwards. She sat up straight and coughed some more as she felt a hand on her pack keeping her upright.

?Who?Who are you?? She sputters looking over her shoulder.

?Not right now. You need some rest and food.? The blurred figure spoke soft and kind to her.

?Alright?? Jessie did not argue this time. She could not see correct and she was tired. Her words were followed with a long growl of hunger.

A kind gentle hand helps her to her feet but she staggers around a bit. She glances at the blurred figure and tried to focus her vision but failed miserably. What she could see was a reddish black blurry figure directly to her right. Pain lingered through her back as she slowly walked where the figure led her. Suddenly all her strength just drained away as she tripped over some small pieces of drift wood.

?Just so weak? How did I get here? Where am I?? Jessie took in a deep breath and closed her eyes.

?Details later? I need to get you to the village.? The soft voice said to her as he slips his left arm under her legs and places his right around her waist lifting her off the ground.

?What the? There was no village near my home. Where am I?? With that she passes out from lack of food and energy.




The sun warms Jessie?s skin as the wind blows through the half open window. The cool breeze brushed her hair across her face tickling her cheeks and nose. Neat tropic flowers were arranged on the window seal as silk like cloths surrounding the bed she lay in swayed in the breeze. The smell of rose petals drifted through the air as Jessie slowly leaded upwards.

?Whoa that?s not right!? Jessie shrieked as she looked at herself. ?Who ever did this is going to get it.? She grabbed a near blanket and pulled it over her as she looked around for her clothes. Then she realized? She didn?t have any clothes. ?That?s right? I was surfing. But how did I get here?? Jessie looked around for anything and spotted some neatly folded fabric.


Once she figured it all out and put the clothing on she looked at herself. The skirt was a sky blue color with short tie strings around the waist. The top was a cream color with a low V cut front. Then she noticed a small cloth wrapped object with a piece of paper neatly resting on top of it. She picked it up and unfolded the cloth to reveal a beautiful necklace with bright blue sapphires perfectly arranged in their out place. She ties it around her neck and then opens the note.

[I]This is for you my lady. It shall perfectly match your eyes. As you can see there?s an outfit for you here. We are outside the door if you need us my lady. [/I]

----------------------------------------


I need more opinions guys...

[Shaun]

Excellent addition! Keep going! I am in suspence!

[Frankie]

Jessie heads towards the cloth door and then exits the little shack looking house. A boy about 14 approached her. He did a strange little bow thing and took her hand. He bent over and put his fore head to the back of her hand before kissing it. One of her eyebrows raised in curiosity. The boy then steps back and introduces himself.

?I am Dredus? To you it might seem like a strange name I know. But you must not worry about my name at the moment. I have to take you to someone.? He did another weird bow thing and led her towards a large shack like house across the river.

?Well Dredus? How old are you?? Jessie asks trying to guess for herself.

?What? Oh? 15. Why do you ask?? He glances over his shoulder at her as they cross a small wooden bridge.

?Well you just look kind of young that?s all.? She answered as she was being dragged along.

The clear water rushed along under the bridge. Jessie stopped and leaned over a bit to watch the fish. There was a colorful assortment of fish she did not recognize. Dredus looked back at her and smiled. Again he took her hand and continues pulling her along. She willingly followed as she tried to watch the fish. They made it across the old wooden bridge and through some grass. They arrived at a large shack like home and Dredus knocked on the door.

A man stepped out and quietly shut the door behind him before glancing at the 2 before him. He was wearing a pure black like robe with a small white marking sewn onto the right arm. His eyes were Bright Blue and his skin was a light tan color. He smiled at the boy who ran off back across the bridge. Jessie glanced at the man in front of her and noticed his bright red hair that hung down past his shoulder blades. It was as red as the fire trucks back in her home town.

?Welcome to the village. Man you were out of it last night. I hoped you were better.? The man said smiling kindly at her.

?Well... My surfboard must have hit me in the back when I wiped out so I probably was out of my whirl.? Jessie remarks as she stared at the guys red hair.

?Your surfboard? I have not heard of such thing.? He said scratching the top of his head in confusion.

?Well it?s a?Well never mind. Who are you and how did I get here?? She asked flailing her arms around.

?I was taking my midnight walk on the beach when I heard a scream. I went to investigate and I found you lying there soaking wet. You seemed in pain so I got you to the village. You were quite messed up if I do say so myself.? He grins as her and glances at the necklace. ?So do you like it?? He finishes pointing at the necklace.

?Very much so but you still haven?t answered my question. Who are you?? She asked while fingering the stones on the necklace.



-----------------------

Thats part 2 ....... too part 2.....

*laughs*

I need more opinions please

[Sara]

[size=1]Your posts are much more enjoyable to read when you puncuate and capitalize and whatnot. ;)

Nice, Blanko.[/size]

[Frankie]

Here is the LAST part of PART 2

----------------------------------------------


?My name is Oryan Dhani.? With a little bow he began walking towards the village.

?Interesting name? Well you might as well show me around since I'm going to be here for a while.? She growls with a sudden mood shift. She storms across the bridge and back into the village.

?Having trouble with the ladies Oryan?? Dredus chuckles at Oryan and Jessie

?She is just complex?? Oryan watches her as he and Dredus chat.

Jessie walks through the village and a couple little girls surround her. They handed her some flowers they had picked. She smiled at her and grasped their dolls and ran off to play. Jessie puts a flower behind her ear and walks over to her board that was leaning up in the building wall.
Her board was not broke or split and it was in pretty good condition.

Oryan walked up behind her. ?So? That?s a surfboard??

?Yeah? Do you want to see how it?s used?? She glances at him smiling as she held it up.

?Sure. I would love to see how drift wood can be used other then for firewood.? He grinned as they headed for the beach.

?I am the queen at surfing back at home so prepare to be amazed.? Jessie goes down to the water and tests the wind and then watches the waves.

?Oh? So how many servants did you have? Did your people like you as their queen?? Oryan asks a bit confused with her talk.

?Oh lord no. That?s just an expression. I am not really a queen. What I meant was I am extremely good at surfing. Better then most back home.? Rolling her eyes she took off her sandals and walked out into the water.

?Oh? I think I am starting to understand some of the language you speak back there.? He glances out over the water as the sun slowly sank down past the horizon.

An array of orange and red spread across the clear water. The clouds parted and drifted slowly in all direction. The sky was clear and pink as the sun slowly sank out of sight. The stars slowly popped out one by one as the moon crept overhead and glowed down on them.


?So that?s how you use a surf board. Very interesting? Is that a means of entertainment where you?re from??

?Sometimes? But mostly its one way we have fun. I hope you people around her know of fun. What do you guys do around her for fun?? She asked turning her head to him with a questioning look on her face.

?Archery, Hunting, And Scnidroller are my most favorites.? He looks back at her.

?We have archery and hunting but what is Scnidroller?? She looks back out at the water?The moon now was shining off the water.
?Well there is a basket at each end of a field. There are 2 teams and the teams kick the Scnid into the baskets. Each team has people in offence and some in defense. Protecting the baskets trying to keep the other team from scoring yet while they try to get the scnid in the opponent?s basket.? He draws out what it looked like in the sand.

?Ah we played that back home. But it is called Soccer? She smiled at realizing this place wasn?t all that different from her home.

They walked back to the village to see it in shambles.

?What the hell happened here?? Jessie shrieks as she stares at the burning huts and houses. Some children were picking things up as the older kids lined up the bodies of the ones who had not survived.

?I?m not sure? But lets find Dredus he always has the one up on things like this? Oryan sighed with a tint of sadness in his breath and headed to the forest.

------------------------PART3-------------------------------------


They walked through as an old man ran by screaming like he had seen the devil himself. Following him was an old woman who just hobbled along after him. ?It? It came from the sky, it spat out acid? The eyes oh lord those eyes!? The man shrieked ?Oh shut up you old fool it came from the forest and it breathed fire!? The old woman argued as they hurried to the village.

?Oryan? Did you see the fear in their eyes? Something bad must have occurred but? The grass around the village wasn?t pushed or bent in anyway? And the forest is not trampled down like something big came through.? Jessie glanced at the two old people as they ran off.

?Yes but they are old fools? Don?t always trust what the old ones say.? His lava red hair blew in the violent wind.

?But they had fear in their eyes? Something happened and don?t you think we should get dredus?? Jessie looks around at the empty forest and sighed.

?No?It looks like I found you.? Out of a tree came dredus. He was bear up pretty bad but he looked confident.

?What the hell happened in the village dredus?? Giving dredus a cold stare Jessie approached him.

?Well if you really want to know? It was a dragon.? Dredus seemed way to calm in Jessie?s eyes.

?What the hell? A dragon! You?re crazy? There is no way that?s possible!? Jessie stepped back away from dredus and gave him a strange look.

?It is as possible as me standing here cutie.? Dredus grinned as he walked in the other direction.
?Follow me and ill show you where the monster lives.? He continued

Jessie leaned over to Oryan and whispered into his ear. ?He doesn?t seem normal; he is not acting like he did when I first met him this morning.?

?I know? Something is up but let us not bring that into view just yet. I want to see what he is up to first.?

?Whatever??

They slowly walk after him. The trees farther in the forest seemed lifeless and their spooky branches seemed to reach out at them. They sky grew darker and the blue sky was flooded with dark clouds. Soon all the color seemed to drained out of the area. No real life around other then the colorless spooky trees.

?This place gives me the creeps.?

?Girls are always scared of things no matter how small. It seems only men can be brave.? Dredus rolled his dazed eyes at Jessie.

?Hey no I am not you lousy teenager. If anyone of us was a man that would be Oryan? Not you!? Jessie shrieked back as her voice seemed to echo through the motionless branches of the trees.

opinions wanted

[TheShinje]

wow, that whole story is excelent Blanko, I think that, having a stunning vision like that, could turn it into a novel :)

And I really mean that, not just saying that. Very few stories ever grasp my attention, but this, it captivated me.

Nice work. will there be more?

[Frankie]

More... heck ya... as a matter of fact... heres some more to... PART....... 3

--------------------------------------------------------------------


?Enough you two, but Dredus she is right? By the way where are you taking us??

?To the monster or dragon or whatever it was.? The noon turned into midnight as the sky grew darker with the lingering clouds.

?Ill soon show you guys who is the man and who is not.? Dredus said to himself as they stepped up to a large lake. The water was as black as midnight.

The water stood so still the lake looked like it was frozen in the warps of time. There were little trees around almost like the water had killed them all off. In the middle of the lake sat an empty island. On the island sat a few dead trees and no grass. It was just an empty deserted island.

?Nothing there Dredus. What is going on?? Oryan walked up to the water and knelt down to investigate.

?Oh its here all right? Let us make camp for the night.? Dredus picked put a few pieces of wood and started a pile. ?So ill get firewood.? He walked off into the forest.

?I got a strange feeling about this Oryan? Jessie shivered at the spooky look of the lake and trees.

?It will be fine for now. You do have a couple of the village?s best warriors with you so it will be safe.? Oryan?s words comforted Jessie as she sat down on the lifeless ground.

------------------------------------------

Ill edit this post more... i just dident write much today

[Sui Generis]

To keep my attention all this time. I must say good job! I know I've already said it, but I LOVE IT!!!! ITS GREAT!!

[Frankie]

ok heres the last part to part 3
---------------------------------------------

It was not long till Dredus was violently shaking Oryan and Jessie to wake them. Jessie leans up and rubs her eyes before stretching her arms up high. Oryan just stood up and walked to the waters edge. The fire was just a small pile of smoldering ashes now; it must have burned out during the night. Dredus poured some water over it and kicked some of the colorless dirt over it and stops down on it with his feet.

?Ok it?s about time?Just stand here? and wait.? He pointed at the empty island which was being lit up by some sun that seemed to shine through the dark clouds. It almost looked as if it intentionally hit the island.

?That?s just crazy!? Jessie rubs her eyes again as the sun hits the island a large castle becomes visible on the island.

?Believe it Jess? After the attack I followed the creature and he disappeared once he set foot on the empty island so I automatically assumed something might happen.? Once the castle was completely visible Dredus pointed north a bit at a small boat. ?We shall use that.?

?You seem to know exactly where you?re going.? Jessie eyes him suspiciously.

?I set the boat up last night sweet heart.? Dredus rolls his eyes as he walks over to the boat.

?Well sorry! It?s not my fault I was violently woken up before I should have.? She followed him with Oryan close behind.

They all climbed into the old wooden boat and the 2 guys begin rowing towards the island. The water barely even moved to the boats movement. The wood creaked and swayed side to side at the uneven weight of the 3. The boat rammed into the ground on the island shore and the 3 climb out and tie it to one of the dead trees. They all walk up to huge metal doors at the front of the castle.

?Never test depth of water with both feet.? Dredus mumbles as they walk up to the doors. The doors creaked open creating the sound of nails to a chalk board.

?Cut it with the sayings Dredus. Let?s just go inside.? Oryan pushes the door to the side more and steps in. ?Come on you two let?s not waste time.?

The three walked in and the huge metal door closed behind them. The long hall stretched about 200 feet then ended at a big staircase leading upwards. Torches and Knights Armor lined the walls along the hallway and the torches continued up the stairs. Jessie and Oryan grabbed a torch and continued walking along the dark hall. The tall things of armor were rusted and had lost their shine ages ago. The glimmer of the torches reflected off a few mirrors on the hall walls. Jessie stared at it all in awe.

The old floor creaked and suddenly Dredus fell through a trap door in the floor. Jessie and Oryan lean near the hole and hear him hit water. Oryan and Jessie hold their torches down the hole to try and see something. They couldn?t get much but he looked fine.

'?Dredus are you ok?? Oryan listens for a reply.

?Um? Yeah I am fine. It looks like a little chamber down here its filled with water but I see a door so you two keep going and ill find a way back up there. I will catch up.? Dredus trudges through the knee deep water to a large metal door and searches for a way to open it.

?Are you sure?? Oryan heard the door open and shut and then it was silent. ?I guess that?s a yes.? Oryan stands up and walks over to a small fountain in front of the stairs. Ancient writing going all around the rim of the bowl and a huge stone tablet sat In the middle of the water. It to had the writing on it, water spewed out of holes on the top making it look quite unique.

?Very neat but Oryan can you make out what it says??

?Unfortunately not, I said I was a warrior not a reader.?

?Ah ok? I wonder what is says.? After investigate it a bit the 2 slowly made their way up the stairs. Both unaware of the eyes that watched them.

[Frankie]

-----------------
Begin Part 4
------------------
Pictures of warriors, of Kings and Queens, and of Princes and Princesses lined the staircase wall. Jessie glanced at on and got a chill down her spine before feeling a hand on her shoulder. She looked to her left and saw Oryan staring at her. She grinned and continued on.

?What was up back there??

?Oh that picture?Oddly it seemed the eyes were following me. Maybe it?s just me but I could have sworn?? She glanced back at it once again before heading up the stairs. ?Do these stairs ever end?? She grumbles deciding to look over the railing to see how high they were. ?Uh?Oryan, Remind me not to do that again.? She shivers a bit and sticks close to the wall.

?Fine by me?Not everyone can take heights but that is ridicules I cant even see the floor.? He looks over the edge after her and shrugs.

?Well I see a door so lets stop complaining about the stairs and lets find where it leads.? She jogs up to it and trips over something half way there. ?Hey! Ow? What is this?? She picks up a small piece of stone that was on the stair. ?Looks? Familiar.?

?Well get up and let?s keep going? He turns the doorknob and gets nothing. ?Well that?s just great.?

?Excuse me Oryan.? She picked herself up and the piece of stone before walking up to the door and pushing Oryan to the side.

She stared at the doorknob and then glances at the stone and noticed a small hairline crack on it. She took her fingernails and dug into it. It cracked more and popped into two pieces. Inside the 2 pieces sat a small key so Jessie took the key and unlocked the door.

?Did you know its like someone is guiding us somewhere? I mean look the stairs went on forever but the moment we complained about the stairs going on forever we found the door. Then we couldn?t open it but then the stop you just happened to trip over turned out to be hiding the key.? Oryan pointed out as the door slowly swayed open.

?Your right? It?s like everything is was too easy. I am starting to believe this might be a trap.? Stepping inside she notices a round table made of stone. It too had the strange markings on it like the fountain but pictures as well.

Four chairs sat around the table and in each chair was a stone statue of some person. The stone walls were covered with pictures that seemed to tell a story. Oryan lit a torch and the rest lit up. The two jumped a bit startled at the sudden flash of light. The room was so much brighter now and Jessie could now see the walls and statues more easily.

?Hey Oryan look here, the statues eyes are made of gems the one at the head of the table is made with diamonds and the two at this end are made of rubies but yet the one at the far end of the table is made of sapphire. Very interesting?? Jessie touched the eyes and stared at them for a bit before moving on to look at the walls.

?Yes a lot of the ancient leaders statues had their eyes made of some sort of valuable gem. It showed how powerful or smart they were. It also sometimes means what rank they were in the run of things like King or General.? Oryan pointed to a higher part on the wall.

There was a picture of a dragon with two heads attacking a great army. Then next it showed the dragon turned out to be a person instead. He was holding a long stick like item in one hand and a large book in the other. The picture went on like a story telling mural.

?Tales are that there was a man who desired ultimate power. Stories say that one day he got the power he wanted but no one ever knew how. He had the power to change into a powerful dragon that could take out a single army in a single flame breath.?

?But what about the book and stick thing?? Jessie seemed really interested in they story.

?The book taught him everything. It was said to be that the book told him of what would happen before it did. Kind of like seeing the future but with a strategy key as well although the stick was an unknown item.? Oryan tried to remember all the stories he heard when he was young.

?So? What happened??

?Well by the time they got to telling me that part I was already to old for those stories. I had begun my warrior training. So I am not sure, but by the looks of these pictures a single warrior brought him down. I have heard that the beast did survive but crawled off to live alone. He trained his son in every combat he could and told his son to pass what he learned to his son and so on. As I was brought to believe the beast wanted to get revenge on the person who took him down and took his power away. So when the time was right someone from his family could get revenge and rule the world? Or something like that.?

?Seems like a basic bad guy loses wants revenge plans to take over the world again movies.? Jessie laughed at the story but then frowned. ?So where do these four guys pan into the story?? She pointed at a picture of four men standing before the dragon.

?Ah? The four rulers, I am not to sure how they fit in??

?Maybe those four people are the four rulers. Maybe that?s a picture of the future.?



?Perhaps it could be. I could see where four unknown people are faced with the same kind of evil wanting to take over the world and get revenge. Your right it must be a tale of the past and a tale of the future.? Suddenly Oryan felt a draft from the wall. ?Here do you feel this? I feel a draft.? He holds Jessie?s hand up to the area near the wall and she nodded.

?Yes? This is starting to seem like a movie I once saw.? She studied the wall a bit.

?I still have no idea what a movie is but I guess you know what you?re talking about. That movie you?re talking about? Did you learn anything from it??


?Um yeah? this guy found something after finding a draft from the wall? He pushed it and a hidden passage way opened up in the wall.? Jessie?s eyes raced all over the wall trying to see if it was like the movie.

?Do you see anything at all??

?No not really it was worth the shot though.? Jessie backed up and glanced at Oryan.

?You know Jessie Dredus has been gone for quite some time now.?

?I know I am not sure what to worry about more, the suspicious draft or Dredus. Although it did seem he knew exactly where he was going so I am not too worried.? Jessie leaned up agents the wall in the shadows near some the door.

Suddenly the torches blew out and the windows blew open distracting both of them. Their thoughts disturbed by the wind as Oryan shut and tied the windows shut. Jessie did not notice the hand coming from the door way until it gripped her shoulder. She let out a scream before grabbing the persons arm and flinging then to the ground. Oryan punched the shadowy figure as it tried to get back up.

?Punch me again Oryan and your going to be dreadfully sorry.? Dredus?s voice echoed through the large room as he picked himself up off the ground again.

?Dredus! Is that you??

?Yeah cutie pie its me. You know for a girl you got some pretty good strength there.? Dredus took Jessie?s torch and lit the rest again.

?Hey it is surprising what fear can make a person do. Now don?t do that again.? She shrieked into his ear.

?Fine I shall announce myself before I enter any room so I won?t frighten you.? He sarcastically shoots back.

?Thanks I appreciate it.? Jessie turned away from him and stuck her nose in the air as if she were a princess. ?Don?t forget to make my dinner and wash my clothes Cinderella.? She grinned at her joke.

?Ha ha ha very funny.? Dredus walked over to the table and leaped up on it and sat down. ?You know those stairs take it out of you.? Suddenly the portion of the table he was sitting on sank in about a half an inch.

?What happened?? Jessie asks snapping out of her phase.

?I am not sure?? Dredus climbed off the table and stood up again as the portion rose back up to where it was. ?But that was weird.? Suddenly the room began to shake and slowly the wall with the pictures began to move? slowly a crack in the middle was visible and the walls parted.

?That?s new the table must have been some kind of button.? Jessie holds her torch up and takes a look in the now visible tunnel.

?I swear I had nothing to do with it I just wanted to rest my feet and seeing how all the chairs were taken up I was sitting on the table.? Dredus sighed and stepped up next to her. ?But since this is now an option I vote we take it.?

?Knuckle Head here is right let?s move.? Oryan takes the lead and walks down the narrow hall like tunnel.

---------------------------------
End Part 4= Begin Part 5
---------------------------------

A cold wind blows from the far end of the tunnel. Oryan led the way as the three of them headed down the dark passage. The cold stone walls were damp and almost mossy like. Jessie Suck in the muddle of the 2 guys fell a chill run down her spin as they hit some spiral stairs the went downwards. Oryan started down them and Dredus pushed past Jessie who was staring at the stairs.

?Why look more stairs what fun! This place is going to be the death of me I can feel it.? Jessie sarcastically hissed as she headed on after the guys.

They spiraled down for about ten minutes when Jessie sat down and closer eyes. She counted to ten and took deep breaths as the guys stared at her. She opened one eye and glared at them. This sent them into an acting phase of pretending they weren?t staring. She stood up and dusted herself off and continued on in front.

?What was that all about Jess?? Shaking his head Oryan follows.

?Got a bit dizzy? I am not used to going down spiral stairs that never end.? She held one hand to her head and the other out to her side keeping balance.

?Oryan I think we should you know stop and rest for a bit.?

?No Dredus we don?t have to stop cause of me??

?I was talking about myself thank you very much? I to am a bit dizzy and tired.?

?Alright let?s take a small break.? Oryan and Dredus sat down to rest.

Dredus sighs heavily and leans agents the wall. One of the stones sinks into the wall. Everyone?s head snaps in the direction of the sound. Dredus gets a worried ?I didn?t do anything? look on his face. Suddenly they heard the sound of rocks rubbing into each other and shifting.

?What did you just do Dredus?? Jessie?s high pitched voice echoes up and down the stairs.

?I did not do a thing. I leaned up agents the wall but that?s it! I swear!?

?It must have been loose.? Oryan comments before things got worse.

Suddenly all the slick stone stairs angled down and merged. No longer steps, but a winding slide. They heard a strange noise from above and got worried looks on their faces. They tried to grip the wall and they got balance on the stone and stood perfectly still. The source of the noise was perfectly obvious when water rushed down after them.

?I think it wasn?t loose, I'm thinking it was a booby trap!? Oryan?s eyes widened at the sight of the rushing water.
?This just keeps betting better and better?? Jessie quoted her little brothers favorite show sarcastically the water crashes into them sending down the slick chute.

They were soaked in an instant as they winded down. Soon the came to a fork in the chute that seemed weird? Oddly each one of them went down a different chute. Jessie winded down and it got faster and faster as the chute got steeper and steeper. Soon she was just falling straight down screaming the entire time. Her scream echoed all over the place. The thing watching them before got a happy look in its eyes at the sound of their screams as they feel.

?This is insane!? Jessie landed in waist deep goop.

The goop was a reddish color and was thick but not so thick she couldn?t move. Her feet crunches and slid around on rugged jagged things at the bottom. It reeked horribly of a mix of things that she couldn?t pick out. Her nose curled and she tried to keep herself from throwing up as she made her way through the reddish watery goop to some kind of ladder.

?This is disgusting. Ah gross? Just sick. What is at the bottom? Wait... I probably don?t want to know.? She grasped the iron bar and pulled herself out of the thickness and half way up the ladder. She looks down and quickly turns away and closes her eyes. A threatening chill runs down her back as she quickly climbs towards the light. Down in the water she had disturbed the stuff resting at the bottom so in her trail bones and body parts began floating. She shot out of the hole quickly.

?That?s just? horrible.? She sits down and tries to concentrate on something else. ?I will not cry I will not cry!? She kept it all held in? She didn?t want to seem so weak and helpless right now. Not when she was alone.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Meanwhile~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Oryan slid down until he slowly came to a stop. The chute ended and leveled out to be another narrow hall. He picked himself up and looked at how soaked he was. Growling deeply he walked alone the path to a well lit room. He glances around and only saw a bunch of tables and chairs and well lit torches. He suddenly saw a shadow lurking in a corner near another open doorway.

?Who is that? Show yourself!? Oryan glared in its direction as the shadowy figure slithered through the open door and into the corridor.

He chased after it blasting into the corridor looking both left and right. He saw the shadow at the left end of the corridor it slithered off into another room. Oryan grabbed a sword from the suit of armor next to him and ran after the creature. He heard it slithering into the room and hurt a struggle and then silence. Oryan ran in to find Dredus on the floor looking pretty beat up.

?What?Oryan was that? The stupid thing came raging in her knocked me over plus 3 tables and the bed before slithering out. That?s going to leave a mark.? Dredus is helped up by Oryan.

?I?m not sure but it seemed like a huge snake. It slithered like one at least.?

?Whatever it was?It got away.?

?No need for this right now.? Oryan was about to cast aside the sword when Dredus stopped him.

?Don?t you think we might need that later??

?You got a point.?

They exit the room back to the corridor and stand there. An ear piercing scream was heard from a couple rooms down. They nod at each other and head down that direction and grab the doorknob to the door and it didn?t give. I was locked so Oryan raised the sword and brings it down upon the door at full force sending wood everywhere.

?You right Dredus we did need this.? Oryan grabbed the massacred door and pushed it over and walked in with Dredus limping behind him.

There they stood in a huge empty room. But then it dawned on the guys it was an arena. In the middle stood Jessie she was staring at the far door at the other end. She was covered in blood so the guys rushed over to her. She turned to them and fell to her knees. She trembled with fear.

?What happened Jessie, Where are you hurt? What?s wrong?? Oryan stabbed the sword into the dirt flooring and kneeled down to her.

?That horrid monster it was in here just a couple minutes ago? And the chute? pool of? blood and gore? This is horrible. I want to be home? Why do I get into these things?? She sobbed to herself.

?She is not hurt which is good, but the creature was here as well. How long ago?? Dredus hobbles over to her

?About 5 minutes ago, but since then I have been just wondering how I got myself into this.? She began to cry now?She couldn?t hold it back.

?That was right before I saw it.? Oryan stood up as the ground began to shake and hole began forming near them from the ground.

?That does not look good.? Jessie and Oryan run for the door as Dredus limped along. Out of the ground, in a quick flash, something snakelike lunched, wrapped around Dredus, and slithered back into the hole.

?Why does this keep happening. Gosh we come to get clues and we get more then we wanted.? Oryan blinked hopelessly as he realizes that the snake thing took Dredus.

Jessie and Oryan walk towards the door they came through and slowly look back at the hole. With worried looks on their faces the glance up at the cracking ceiling. Everything started shaking again as most of the ceiling fell through. Oryan and Jessie run to the side avoiding the falling rocks and huge candle chandelier. A dark shadow slowly floated down upon all the rocks and stones. Surrounded by a huge blanked of a dark like fog.

Four huge yellow eyes glared at them from the blanket of darkness. Smoke poured from the darkness followed by 2 huge streams of fire. Oryan grabbed Jessie and threw her to the side and rolled the other direction to dodge the blast. Jessie skidded across the floor a bit and then stood up. Oryan glanced around and noticed the sword which was inconveniently placed next to the creature. He motioned for a second of time and ran into the corridor and grabbed another sword.

?Like he is going to give you a second to equip yourself?? Jessie screeched at him. ?Sure leave the defenseless girl alone with the big monster. What a brave man!? She rolled her eyes.

The huge creature?s eyes narrowed glaring at Jessie. Out of the darkness a huge scale covered three toed claw emerged. It raised high above Jessie and quickly came flying back down at her. She did a couple back flips to get out of the way as the huge claw slammed into the ground cracking it in every direction. Rocks flew all over the place as it lifted its foot and brought it back inside the darkness. Oryan ran back in with a sword and glared at the creature.

?It is time for you to die creature. For all the pain and death you caused in my village. You will fall lifeless right here right now!? Oryan raised the sword and positioned himself as the creatures head fell backwards as it let out an earth shattering roar.
?Your time is up?Dragon!?


--------------------------------------------------------
End part 5

Its fully Comeplete now


and umm....Ignore....the attachemnt

[Shaun]

Nice creepy stuff there. Any story that creates mental pictures like that is definatly a good one! Can't wait for more!

[Frankie]

Oryan?s eyes met with the shadow covered dragon as Jessie positions herself behind Oryan. It wasn?t long till the cloud of darkness evaporated and a huge two headed dragon was now visible. It let both of its heads lean back and let out another earth shattering roar before sending two more streams of blazing flame at them. As the flame rushed at them Oryan and Jessie both ran out the door and got on either side of it. The flame blast burst through the door but missed the two.

?You got any bright ideas??

?No do you??

?Well no? I can?t plan for unexpected things let?s just think of something.?

?We don?t exactly have time for that Oryan.?

?Argh, I know I know? Ah we will just have to fight it.?

?Are you insane? It breaths fire like we can really just keep running from it and expect to fight back as well?

?Your right but I got a plan so just hold on.?

Oryan looked around the corridor once more trying to find any trace of anything that could help. He noticed the suits of armor again one was missing the sword he had at the time, but it held a thick metal shield as well. Oryan?s brain clicked and he pulled the shield from the armor and grabbed another one. He tossed the second one at Jessie for her own protection and re-entered the arena trough the singed doorway. Catching it Jessie followed him.

?There?s no use in hiding? The left head hissed.
?There?s no use in running. The right head finished.


Oryan positions himself as Jessie stood off to the side not sure of what she should do. The ceiling that was broken revealed the sky as it grew even darker then before. Soon rain was pouring down upon them. The dragon?s two heads hissed in anger before it was surrounded by the darkness again. The dark cloud tuned into just black mist and flew off.

?The thing hates water I take it.?

?Well if so why on earth would he live on an island surrounded by water??

?Ever think of the fact it might not be water??

?No? What else could it be??

?Water, tar, acid, and a few other things. Its entirely possible, but I don?t think he is gone.?

?What makes you think that??

She pointed at the open area and here came the darkness again. It landed and the dragon appeared again. It let out a screech and the left head started shaking. It?s mouth got large and the right head laughed. The left head flew forward and spit out about a truck load of green steaming acid. The acid flew at Oryan who realized the shield would not work. He backed up a bit and then leaped quickly to the side. A bit spattered as the ball of acid plummeted into the ground, Oryan noticed some landed on the sleeve of his clothes. He quickly ripped the piece off and threw it to the side as it sizzled into nothingness.

?Acid works fast, but not as fast as you eh Oryan?? Hissed the dragon?s left head.

?How do you know my name dragon?? Oryan let up his defense as a new question arose.

The dragon just laughed menacingly. Oryan did not notice its long tail creeping around the room. The dragon?s tail had slid around behind Oryan and Jessie noticed a small cut on the tail. She picked up the acid covered piece of cloth with her shield? The cloth was still dissolving away so she dropped it on the wound. Te acid began to take action and dissolve away the dragon?s skin around the cut.

?Oryan you better pay attention you numskull the dragon was sneaking his tail behind you.? Jessie said finally getting his attention as the acid burned into the dragons cut making him roar loudly.

The dragon lifted his tail and swiped Jessie to the side swiftly. She flew up agents the wall and lost consciousness. Oryan turned to the dragon again and lifted his sword and glared. He lunged at the dragon at full force as the dragon defended himself with his tail only to learn that it was no longer intact. Oryan had cut it off and went straight through. Oryan lifted the sword around and swung it up and slashed down across its chest creating a long vertical cut that began to bleed a reddish bluish color.

?You will pay for that Oryan. With her life?? The dragon lifted its huge claw and flexed his middle tow and brought it up. ?You know? Oryan you should have been more careful?? The dragon sat his foot down and knocked Oryan to the ground. A purple fog surrounded the dragon and he began to shrink.

?What the heck?? Jessie opened her eyes slowly and looked at what was happening.

The dragon?s body shifted and changed. The color turned from black to a whitish pale color. Its two long heads molded into one round one and he stood almost as tall as Oryan. Jessie leaped up quickly and gasped at the human now standing in front of them. Oryan?s mouth dropped as well as his sword which hit the ground with a clank.

?What the heck? You traitor?? Oryan screeched as he stood up.

?You?re going to pay for that Oryan.? The figure hissed.

?Well well well? Look what we have here. I thought something was fishy. I should have known it was you? Dredus!?

?Ha-ha you didn?t think I sat and leaned on those buttons by accident did you?? Dredus gives the two an evil grin.

this is part of PART 7 i repeat part of part 7

---------------------------------------------------------

Dredus stood before the two of them gloating over his oh so clever plan. Oryan could not believe that the little boy he found just a couple years ago was to blame. Jessie glared finally understanding it all. She steps forward past Oryan and speaks.

?Ok? Falling in through the trap door fooled me, but when you knew your way out so quickly and refused to let us pull you out I started thinking something was up. Then just happened to sit on the table button, R ight? Ok I was going with the flow even after you leaned agents the one wall. Ok fine could have been coincidence, but you know where you messed up? Two places? One you had the snake attack me then go after Oryan then set it up to look like it attacked you as well. Two? The dragon?s right heads right eye was a little swollen. Come on I know that?s where Oryan hit you when you came into the room full of pictures, when I threw you to the ground? Remember??

?Ah those are just minor details an advanced girl form another area would pick up on. To bad Oryan?s brain is not as advanced as yours. Well his brain more is advanced then yours in some areas but that does not matter.? He let out a loud laugh that burst with evil.

?Oh just shut up you little brat.? Oryan was very ticked off and it showed. His face was red and his eyes seemed to be two balls of flame in his head.

?I?Am?No?Brat. Nor am I a child? Dredus lifted his hand and threw a tiny ball at his feet and a cloud of dark smoke appeared. Suddenly it all cleared and Dredus was gone.
?I must take my leave for now? But beware I will be back.?

The sun came out the clouds cleared. ?The sun is rising; do you think that?s why he left? I think he can only maneuver and live in darkness. Maybe the day kills him.? Oryan points at the sun.

?That?s vampires Oryan but I think he just left to heal. I am sure he thinks it?s better to fight when at full capability. That cut you gave him showed right through his shirt when he was human. So I know he will be back. Just not for a while.

[Na'dou]

Nice Blanko, I hope you have your other part ready...
