chapter 1

<p>It was a dreary morning and all that could be heard was loud yells, ash searched frantically for the source of the shout and as they caught sight of ebony running at full speed, screaming. They took a deep breath and yelled "ebony CALM DOWN!" At this moment Athena and Marc also began to scream, enraged ash yelled "EVERYONE SHUT UP IM TRYING TO CAST A SPEL!" The masked person they were fighting let out a laugh "so..this is the group of warriors chosen by fate to stop me? ha! this is simply pathetic, you can't even work together!" they let out another hysterical laugh.<br/><br/>"now your probably wondering how me and my friends got here, well you see its actually a long story-" ebony began to explain before she was interupted by ash "no its not, you see it all started 2 and a half months ago when-" ebony looked at ash in disbelief before continuing her story "shush, this is MY story" ash looked furiously at ebony unable to believe that they had been interupted *ahem* "no its OUR story, the story of how we saved another worl-" Athena entered the room holding a book and wearing a pair of round glasses *ahem* "another realm" he said turning the page of ze's book, ash and ebony looked at each other then to Athena and in unison yelled "Oh shut up!" then ebony turned from Athena and ash to continued her story "anyway this is the story of how we saved a realm called mystique." <br/>A short girl with fluffy fox ears and a tail climbed from Athena's back and quietly asked ash and Athena to stop arguing.<br/>ash sat on their knees stroked the girls ear and said "of course sweetie." they turned from the girl and Continued speaking "so anyway It all started one night when-".<br/><br/>"hey ash do you wanna go for a walk? I'm bored." ebony asked looking up from her phone<br/>"sure that sound like a great idea." ash answered as they walked out from the living room, <br/>"yay let's go!" ebony exclaimed excitedly as she sprung up from the couch and scrambled to get her shoes "you have too much energy" ash said as they watched ebony slide on her purple heelies.<br/>"WAIT where do you wanna go?" ash asked sliding on their black trainers and green raincoat<br/>"the woods?" ebony said frantically searching for her coat "sure then." ash replied as they watched ebony dash out the front door "slow down!" ash exclaimed as they watched her trip over her untied shoelace.<br/><br/>-A few hours later<br/><br/> "ash I think it's time you admit that we're lost.." ebony said looking at her surroundings "no we're not lost" ash said as they once again tried to open Google maps "YES we are, that's the same tree we passed 1 hour ago" ebony yelled pointing at a large oak tree that had one orange and one pink ribbon around its base "Fine.. maybe we are just a little lost then" ash admitted as they slid their phone into their pocket. ebony turned and started frantically searching for something "what's wrong?" ash asked as they began to wonder what she was looking for "I thought I heard something"<br/>ash looked at the Bushes ebony was searching around "over there" ash exclaimed as ebony slowly began walking towards cami "careful it could be dangerous" they said as ebony edged closer to the Bushes, she tore the Bushes aside and hidden behind them was a swirling portal that was engraved in a ancient looking oak tree "what is that.." ebony said as she inched closer to the portal, A look of panic shot across ash's face as they watched her "ebony! stop" they yelled, she stopped just inches from the portal "what do you think this is?" she asked taking a few steps back, ash walked over and positioned themself next to ebony so they could inspect the mysterious portal<br/>"let's head back I think I know where we are" ash said as they started walking away from the portal "Oh come on I'm sure its fine" said ebony as she paused and continued stareing into the portal "I wander where it goes to" ebony said as she took a took a deep breath "wait ebony stop" a look of shock spread across ash's face as they reached for her.</p>
