• As I get my bearings together,I look back to see what had just happened. There is a stretch limo on the other side of the road I was standing on. That's odd,I think. I coulda sworn that limo just ran me over... Oh well, I must have imagined it.
    As I finish this thought, I hear a car horn behind me. "Hey, get your lazy butt outa the road kid!"
    I walk towards the school again and I see the limo in front of it by the main doors. And would you guess who stepped out? The driver gets out and opens the back doors and out walks...
    That girl.
    I hurriedly run past and into the school. I go to my homeroom, room 207, before I do early morning math time with my math teacher.
    ********************
    Some time later, about 1:25, it was computer time. We had free day that day, so we could do whatever we wanted. I see that girl walk out of the room with a hall pass, and I wonder, Where would she be going? I just get back to my computer.
    As I log onto GaiaOnline, a webcam chat window opens on the screen. On it...
    Was the girl.
    As I try to close the window out of terror, she speaks. "Do not close this window, or die." I listen to her, as I notice, I'm not in my classroom anymore.
    "I am Vivian, and I am the princess sent here from the kingdom of Koru to look for a little red ring with carvings engraved on it. And I happen to know it is in your possession. Do you know what power that ring has?" she says as I shake my head.
    "Well, let's just say, you can become intangible, shoot fire, and command a legion of fire dragons, IF you know how to use it. It is called the Bloodring, and it has been a relic in my family for centuries. Now there is one thing I do not know, and that is are you wearing it?"
    I nod my head, still in shock of this all, and she slams her fists on the desk she was sitting at. "Curses!" she shouts, as she slams her fists again. "Then the ring is forever bonded to you. Unless... No, it's too dangerous."
    "W-w-what's t-too danger-er-ous?" I manage to stutter out.
    "To remove the ring, you must make a journey to Malakard, the city of wizards. Only the greatest wizard in all the world, who lives there, can use a spell to remove the ring. The journey is perilous, and the foes will be aplenty. Are you ready for the journey?"
    "So, what if I don't wanna go on this journey?" I ask, with some attitude I didn't know I had.
    "Then we will make you by force."
    I couldn't imagine what horror she could wreak upon me if she did it by force, so I agreed.
    "Good. Then training starts tomorrow." she finishes, as I arrive back in class, apparently the same time as I left.
    "Why are you shivering man?" asked one of my friends.
