Chapter 5
Danny and his family had arrived early enough to get a few hours of sleep, before starting there day. But now they were out and about seeing the sites. At noon they stopped for lunch and then they split up to go see different things. Danny finished first, so he put on his head phones and went off to explore. Danny was having fun just looking around the city, but he knew it was getting late, so he decided to start back. On his way however Danny noticed a museum and decided he had time for one last stop.
Inside the museum, Danny found paintings, and fossils, and pieces of armor, but there was one exhibit particularly that interested him. A stone that looked almost exactly like the one he had found all those months ago. Suddenly there came a voice from behind it said.
“So you are interested in the stone.”
Danny spun around to see who had spoken. It was an old woman, after the initial surprise had worn off Danny said. “Yeah, well it’s just; I found something just like this.
“I know,” Said the old woman. “You have been chosen for a great destiny.”
“Destiny… right,” Danny answered then glanced at the clock. “Oh crap! I’m late!” he shouted, and started out, but as he passed the woman grabbed his arm in a vice like grip. A soon as she made contact the symbol on Danny’s hand started to glow, and the energy he had felt when first touched the stone, but this time there was no pain. In fact the energy was soothing.
“You can not escape your fate. No matter where you hide or how far you run.” The old lady said and then released him. As soon as she let him go Danny raced off. When she was alone, the woman shook her head sadly and whispered “I’m sorry...” Then she too left. There was one last stop to make before her day was over.
Laury was tired, hungry, and on top of that even more tired than she had been this morning. Laury had been walking all day. She hadn’t found anything that looked familiar, nor had she found any food. What was worse was that she now couldn’t find her way back to her park. So she sat down on a little wall and starred dejectedly off into the distance, and it was in that state that the old woman found her.
“Hello,” the old woman said, but Laury just ignored her. “Well, you’re not much of a talker are you,” the old woman said. Again Laury ignored her. “That’s OKAY,” The woman said and bent down to touch Laury on the shoulder. As the woman did this Laury felt the same energy she had felt before racing through her body, but this time there was no pain. Then suddenly the sensation was gone, and so was the woman. The energy hadn’t been painful but it brought back memories, of home, and Danny... Thinking of them and of how she might never see them again Laury began to cry.
