《Eternal Dream》Chapter 1 - Another Day
Advertisement
Alicia walker was staring out her window with a gloomy expression. She was alone again in her room filled with teddy bears and other things a fourteen year old girl would have. Her hands were moving around a computer mouse she named Black Wing. The design was shaped like a human boy with dark hair and pointy ears. In her heart it was a person she wanted to meet, but sadly no boy her age has ever asked her out. Leaving only a dark hole in her heart. Not wanting to think about her dream guy. She started to search for something to do on her laptop, only to stare at idol band boys that made her heart beat faster than the speed of sound.
The next couple of minutes a knock on the door could be heard.
The voice belonged to an older women. "Princesss do you want to go shopping."
Alicia pondered for a moment than with a sigh. "No mom its too hot outside and my ice cream might melt."
Her mother went downstairs with a dissapointed look. Why doesn't she ever want to go out like normal girls do.
Alicia returns to stare at her laptop Aka her fantasy world to escape the real world. Dreaming of being popular like being on the channel 9 news. The thought of being world famous and have everyone admire her as a real princess. If only a meteor would crash onto earth and with my mighty sword skills deflect it with the look of a true heroic hero. The boys would flock to me. Alicia was speaking out loud with a super hero pose, a z shaped figure striking the sky.
Standing in the front door was her mother with a OMG expression as her mouth was opened like a O.

Alicia eyes stared at her mom with a smile to try to get out of this awkward situation.
“Mom this is part of my acting class at school.”
“HA Ha ha ha.”
Mom returned a look of worry at me as she grab my hand and said calmly. “Princess were going shopping to cure your sickness.”
All I could do was sigh as my fate was now sealed by the holy mother to venture into the outside world called life.
The next day.
Alicia was staring at her closet in complete confusion, not knowing what to wear. Her slim body and dazzling brown hair was her greatest asset as she can wear practically anything that comes to mind. After pondering for couple mins that could have been a couple hours. She has decided to go with blue jeans and a white tank top. Her hair was dark brown and very light as she comb it with her brush. Grabing the mirror to the side table, she saw a reflection of her average self, which she wish she would have been born with looks like a princress would, than the world would be hers for the taking. Sigh how i wish dreams could come true as she lay on her mermaid waterbed.
A noise could be heard from downstairs. "ring ring ring'.
Alicia was expecting a package she ordered from amazon. It was a book with her favorite character Black wing, a story about a girl who is swept away to a far magical land and falls in love with a vampire prince. The prince saves her from monsters that come for her life, with his shining dark armor and dazzling smile. After that the two live happily ever after till the end of time. With those silly thoughts ringing in my mind i head down stairs. My beautiful mother appears before me and casually speaks. "Look through the hole before opening door for strangers." I was like ."Mom don't worry i am old enough to know these things." With excitement i peaked through the tiny hole, only to find a ups guy in his 30s holding a brown box that ive believe to be my life purpose aka book of my fantasy's. I couldn't stop jumping up and down as i unlocked the door. "HI this must be mine." i took the box from the guy leaving him speechless as i slammed the door in his face. The Ups guy thought. "little girls these days have no manners at all."

My mother with the looks and body of a model gave me a scary huffed. "Did i ever teach my daughter to have no manners." Ignoring my mother was my greatest skill or was it intuition. At that moment all i ever cared about was whats in the brown box. My hands move really fast as i unpack aged the ribbons around the holy grail aka known as the package. Before i could finally open the last seal, i felt a tinged in my ear as my mom pulled me away. "Its time i teach you some manners my sweet princess." With an helpless expression. "Mother please don't do this." The last thing i could see was the book emitting a strange glow, before i was out of sight and plunged into the darkness known as punishment.

Again from Scratch Saga: Izmittor Unchained
If someone precious to you needed your help, would you extend it? Would you still do it if it costs you your peace and perhaps even your life? For Tercius, a man mysteriously reborn nearly thirteen years ago, there was only one answer to both questions. Feeling compelled, he sets out to journey to the northern Sogea and its infamous Western Izmittor mountain range, a natural stronghold of sky tearing mountains and deep canyons. Legends about the place abounded, but he knew without a doubt that the hidden valleys, rushing rivers, thick forests, and desolate landscapes hid powerful predators, the likes of which stalk the harsh terrains for an easy source of meat and bones. The many natural dangers of Western Izmittor would be hard enough to navigate safely for a lone traveler, but to make matters worse Tercius had enemies in the heights of Western Izmittor, humans and spirits who would see him dead if they ever learned of his true connection to the Pyramid of Tergaron and the Society of the Magi. To make things even more difficult, he also had to ensure that the true extent of his own Innate Skills remained hidden, for if the prying eyes of the world fell on him and his many secrets came to light, then he would never again know a day of peace. Can one reborn man manage to keep his secrets and still succeed in doing what his conscience compels him to? Will he have to choose one over the other? And can he do any of it without reigniting the sparks of a planetary war the likes of which had not been seen in millennia?
