His Glowing Eyes

"Damien, I don't know what to do, I don't know what's happening to me. My ears are ringing, I can't stop it."

Leroy turnt to me, with nothing but pure fear masked upon his face.

"What happened to you in there? I couldn't hear much, only the loud bang that followed"

"His eyes. Hi-his eyes. They were glowing gold. He said something but I couldn't understand what it was, it didn't sound English. Then he vanished.. now this" he began to shake and a tear rolled down his face.

"What am I going to do. He's gone. What if we can't find him. We need to figure out what this fucked up shit on my wrist is all about".

I sat in deep thought, trying to make sense of this whole screwed up situation that had taken place. It made no sense, why Leroy, what had he done that made him deserving of this?

All he did was make a dumbass comment about his stupid class.

"The book! We need to find that book he was speaking about!"

Leroy had now somehow fell to believe everything we had been told that day was true. Nothing I could say would change his mind.

"The Book, the book will tell us everything we need to know to find the sacred land.

It's the only thing that can save me. They are calling me"

He sounded like a madman. Frantically repeating his words, making it sound almost a cult like chant.

"The book, the book can save me. They can save me".

Sitting in doubt, I had to do everything I could to help my best friend.

If this was really true, the magic that was about unfold was something that people only hear in fairytales. In bedtime stories. The words of the crazy.

What had I gotten myself into.
