CHAPTER 1: THE CHANGE__________

“Saori”
*Groan*
“SAORI!”
I instantly sat straight up when the teacher woke me.
“Nice to see your up. Was I boring you?”
“N-n-n-no that’s no it.”
“Detention tomorrow!”
The bell rang for the end of school. I packed my stuff in my book bag and avoided teacher’s glare as I met up with kinichi in the courtyard. “What do you want to do?” she asked with a bored tone.
“I don’t know. I’ll be free all week since my older brother and mom will be away all week.” I replied. It was their work vacation and they decided to leave to take care of the house.
Ken came up to us and after hearing our boredom suggested we go to the woods a few minutes from our school.
“There have been rumors about a voice coming from deep inside there and I’m curious about it all.” He said with an adventurous tone.
“Then it’s settled! Race you there!” Kinichi bolted out of there leaving us both behind “last one there is…” we heard her voice die before she could finish.
*sigh*
Ken and I soon reached the forest and noticed that kinichi wasn’t around.
“She must have run in without us.” Ken said with a surprised tone. “She didn’t even wait.”
As we were walking, we heard a fain voice coming from deeper inside the forest.
“Come here” It kept getting louder.
“Come here” It seemed to be coming from somewhere in the center left of the forest.
“Come here” Soon afterwards we heard a weird “voom-ing” sound coming from up ahead.
“COME HERE!” By now it was echoing in my ears trying to take over my thoughts.
As we approached the voice, we saw a beam of light shine down on a certain spot of the forest floor. It looked like a stage spotlight coming down from the sky. I mouthed the word “wow” in astonishment. The light was so beautiful, almost mesmerizing. I heard rustling in the bushes behind us, which broke the trance, and turned around to find nothing. Figuring it must have been my imagination, I shrugged and turned back to the light to see Ken in the light and disappeared. I felt a thud on my back and I myself was pushed into the light. Upon contact, I felt really weird and, what looked like, disintegrated
I was now falling surprisingly slowly down a sunset color background with twinkling lights almost like stars. All of a sudden, I become cloaked in a blue fire. I tried to blow it out in panic, but I noticed my skin wasn’t burning. In fact, it felt warm and comfortable. I felt a sting and the fire blew away. So much for comfort.
“You have a kind nature. You put others before you and will do anything to protect your friends. Your aura is a gentle blue. You remind me of Piplup.”
The beautiful stars started to inch closer and closer, as if my body were a magnet and engulfed me much like he fire did. I started to tingle and go numb. My vision started to blur and eventually, I fell asleep.
