“THE CHOSEN”
CHAPTER 1: Alone
It was getting late, there was only maybe two or three people left in the library. Sitting down reading a book was Shawn. He had brown hair, green eyes, pretty tall, and was 16 years of age. He wore a necklace, and at the end of it, was a half of a circle, looks like it was shattered, on it was a horse, standing on its heels, and half of what looked like a sun in the middle. Shawn wasn’t much of a reader, but he had friends that visited the library often, and came to see them. He grabbed a book just to check it out, and suddenly got into it.
Finally it turns 9:00 p.m. and a guy named Blake walked up to him, Blake worked at the library at the check-out. He was about 14, tall, with brown hair and eyes.
Blake said to Shawn, “Um, its 9 o’clock, we’re closing.” Shawn shushed him. “Shawn, it’s time for you to go.” Shawn just ignores him. “SHAWN!” Shawn finally looks at him and says, “I was just finishing the chapter, Blake, no need to get feisty.” “What are you reading?” “The Midnight Moon” Shawn replied. “Sure is a classic” said Blake, “definitely sucks you in.”
Shawn laughs and says goodbye to Blake, he leaves the library, and the moon was out, not a cloud in the sky. Shawn gets into his car and start up the engine, he starts driving toward his home. When he finally gets home, he turns on the TV and sits down to watch
News Reporter: Down in Egypt, nearby Khufu’s Pyramid, Archeologists have found a huge tomb-like structure under the sand. We asked one of them what they thought it was.
Archeologist: Well, it’s hard to say at this point, but by what far we’ve dug up, it’s definitely big. It has hieroglyphics all over it, and once we dig it up, we should be able to see what this means
News Reporter: Big news, maybe something for our history book, now onto the weather with...
Shawn turns off the TV, and walks into his bedroom. It is bland, white walls, simple dresser. And only one picture is in the room, a picture of him and his best friend, Brad. He was a little shorter than Shawn, had Dirty Blonde and messy hair. “The only family I really had.”
The Next Day
It’s a little after 3 when Shawn heads to the other side of town and knocks on the door of the smaller house in the small neighborhood. Answering it is a girl. Her name was Abby. She was somewhat skinny, blonde-haired, with Bluish-Green eyes. “Hey Shawn, you looking for Brad?” she asks. “Yeah, is he here?” “Yup he’s upstairs”
Shawn heads upstairs, and opens a door closest to the stairs. While Brad is jamming out to some hardcore rock music, he doesn’t even notice Shawn come in. He walks over and turns the stereo off.
“Hey, I was listening to that.” “I can see.” “What’s on your mind, bro?” “Do you remember how we met?” “How could I forget? You were like 4, and my mom found you in a grocery store. We tried calling for a lost baby hoping your parents would come….” Shawn interrupts, “But they didn’t, and you took me to your home, you put out lost child signs, but no one called or answered those calls, did they?” Brad stutters for a moment before finally saying, “No.” ” I want to know who my family is.” ” But Shawn, you may never find them, there are millions of people on planet earth, and you don’t have any clue where to start.” “I can’t stand not knowing who my real parents were, imagine having no one to look out for you, staying alone in your own house at 16, with no one to talk to except the news reporters on TV.” “Oh, you saw that Egyptian report last night didn’t you?” “Brad!” Shawn says as Brad kind of looks at him startled. “I am being serious here.” “I know, but you’re never alone. You got me, Abby, and my folks, you know they love you like a son.” “And I’m very thankful for that, but I still have to know.”
Shawn’s phone starts buzzing, “Just a minute” He walks out of the room. Shawn answers it, and the man on the phone says, “You coming?!” “What? Who is this?” “This is you fencing master.” Your lesson should’ve started five minutes ago, you’re going to be late and I have another lesson at four.” “Oh, crap, I totally spaced it, I’ll be there in ten.” He hangs up the phone, and runs down the stairs, yelling “sorry, got to go!”
He jumps into his car, and quickly drives to his fencing lesson at a place called “Master Chou’s fencing school”. He arrives at around 3:30, Shawn, “Sorry I am late master, I...” “No time for chatter-chatter or lesson, pick-up fight with Nick” replied Master Chou.
Shawn gets on his fencing suit and without training heads to the bigger part of the school, where they hold their fights and challenges. Shawn runs out, and spots Nick. He couldn’t see him, he already had his suit on. “You’re late” Nick says. Shawn just ignores as Master Chou starts the match. Shawn quickly strikes first, but Nick, even quicker, blocks the attack. He strikes back with a slash at the feet, Shawn jumps, and is ready to do an overhead, but he ducks down and blocks again.
Master Chou meanwhile, is telling them to watch their footwork, use proper stance, etc. They aren’t even listening though. They are too caught up in it. Shawn continues to fight, hoping to pierce through his amazingly quick defense; both of them were very good, Master Chou was stunned at what these two could do; he started to wonder if they were better than Master Chou himself, of course, he would never reveal that. They went fifteen minutes until finally Nick hits Shawn in the chest. Both of them remove their masks, they are sweating like crazy.
Nick says, “You got some skills for a young kid like yourself.” Shawn just smirks. Master Chou interrupts, “Good job, to both of you; you really are doing a great job here.” Nick and Shawn head into the other room, and remove their fencing suits, they hang them up in the back room, when Shawn turns around, Nick notices Shawn’s necklace. Nick says, “That necklace” Shawn looks at him. “Where’d you get it?” “I’ve had it since I was a kid.” “Really?” “Yup.” “Interesting”
Shawn just kind of looks at him weird, “okay” he says. “I gotta get goin’; maybe I’ll catch you around” Nick stares at him for a few seconds, then says “Yeah, maybe.”
Shawn heads out of the school and drives off.
Nick leans against the wall for a moment “That’s very interesting.”

CHAPTER 2: The Party
“What do you think about these?” Abby asks. “I don’t know they look, nice, I guess.” Blake responds “You don’t like party-shopping do you? “Not really.” “Well, I really want to make this special for my big bro, and you should too.” “I know, I know” “So, now which of these tablecloths would go best with the color scheme?” “Umm, how about the blue?” “Are you kidding? The Aqua looks way better.” Blake sighs aloud. “Hey, if you didn’t want to help, you shouldn’t have offered.” Blake’s eyes widened, “What…but…you…CAME TO ME!” “I’m not allowed to be out alone.”
Abby and Blake buy the tablecloths, balloons, and other party favors and head out of the party store. Abby has a list she pulls out of her pocket along with a pen, “Okay, so now we can take these decorations to your house, and you can hide them there, I had Shawn take Brad out tomorrow, so I’ll have you come over then, and then we can set up all the decorations and stuff.”
Blake says,”okay, and your sure he doesn’t have a clue about this, right?” “Absolutely not, I sent out the invitations weeks ago, and nobody has said a peep!” Abby responds.
----Meanwhile----
Inside a burger joint not too far from Brad’s house Brad says, “So the guy asked about your necklace, big deal!” Shawn replies, “It is a big deal! I’m telling you there is something about this nick character.” “Like what?” “I don’t know, it’s just…..” “I just think your being paranoid. Trying to find your real family is going to your head.” “Possibly, I just don’t know what to think anymore”
A waiter comes over and gives them their food, Brad picks up the greasy burger, so greasy it was dripping off onto the plate. He takes a bite; the grease was all over his mouth. “These are the juiciest burgers available.” Shawn just stares at him, and then at his burger. “What?” Brad says. “Nothing……” Shawn says.
Later that night…
Blake is still over hanging with Abby at Brad’s house, when Brad comes home, He heads toward the living room, Blake and Abby are watching TV flipping through the channels; Brad walks toward the coat hanger to put his jacket up, hearing the different noises of the TV. He looks over and sees more on the Egyptian story.
“Wait! Go back!” Brad said.
Blake looks at him, and then changes it back.
“We are almost through digging up the tomb, it’s smaller than we expected, only a casket it seems, however the hieroglyphics are still confusing even our smartest scientists and teachers, even an Egyptian himself couldn’t read this.
“What do you think is in it?” Abby asks. “A zombie will come out when they open it, and it will eat your brains out.” Replied Blake “It’s probably just another king that hasn’t been discovered yet.” Said Brad, “Say, aren’t you all up a bit late?”
Blake looked at his phone, “Yeah, I have to go, I see ya’ll later”
Blake exits the house; Abby turns off the TV and heads upstairs, while Brad sits back down and turns it on. “This tomb is a mystery, I can’t wait myself to see what is inside this tomb and these hieroglyphics, they mean something, and we are going to find out what it is.” The screen shows a small video of the tomb, Brad looks at it, and his eyes widen. He hits the button on the remote to pause the TV using his DVR. He looks closely. “Holy….”
----The Next Day-----
It’s only a few hours before Brad’s party starts, Blake and Abby are putting up all the decorations. Blake asks, “Where do you want these balloons?” Abby responds, “Put them over near the table; the cake is in the fridge right?” “Yup, look at how I had them decorate it.”
Abby looks to see a neat decoration on it with tons of icing. “Sweet! He’s gonna love it!”
----A few hours later----
Downtown, Shawn and Brad exit the movie theatre, “Wow, what a twist, I was so sure he was going to…” Shawn notices has he’s talking how Brad is thinking of something.
“Uh, dude? You okay?” “Yeah, I’m fine, just gotta few things on my mind” “A few things? Care to talk?” “No, I better get home before it gets too late; it looks like it’s going to storm anyway.” “I’ll walk you home.”
Brad and Shawn head back toward the neighborhood, what they don’t realize is that they’re being followed.
Blake looks at Abby, “everyone here?” “Yup, all that’s needed is the birthday boy and Shawn.” “Great, looks like everything is going as planned!”
Brad and Shawn then enter through the front door; he takes off his jacket and puts it on the coat hanger. “I already told you Shawn, I’ll tell you lat….” Suddenly at least 15-20 people jump out and yell surprise. Brad is in shock as he turns around to Shawn, who just gives him that “What?” look.
“You set me up?” “…..Yeah” “Oh, man, hey look it’s Frank, man I haven’t seen him since...” he spots another person, “Jimbo! Hey man, how are ya?”
Brad gets lost in the party going around seeing people he hasn’t seen in a while. Shawn just kind of sits down and enjoys the music. He didn’t know many of the people here except for Brad, Blake, and Abby. There were few others, but he really didn’t care to talk to them.
Brad sits down next to Shawn, “Man you are the bomb!” “Don’t thank me; I was just the guy to get you away from here. It was Abby’s idea, and Blake helped her with all the decorating.” He runs over to Blake and Abby who were drinking some punch. “Thanks guys for all of this, you got me good.”
Shawn goes to the fridge and then pulls out the cake; he takes the cover off and puts it on the table in front of where Brad was sitting. “Icing…lots of icing, you guys know me so well” Brad was so ecstatic about this, almost like he was a kid again. They all start singing Happy Birthday. After they got to the final line of the song, Brad blew out his candles; and almost at the exact same time, there was a huge thunder clap, the electricity went out, and the front door flew open! Standing there was a shadowy figure. Lightning flashed behind him, and it showed Nick, holding a necklace out, screaming, “SHAWN!!!”

CHAPTER 3: Two Pieces
Everybody stayed still, probably scared to death, with the lightning and all, heck, I think Blake peed himself, oh no, wait he just spilled the punch.
Brad whispers to Shawn, “Is that….” Shawn replies, “Nick”
Shawn walks over to Nick. “What do you want?” “I want that!” Nick points to his necklace. “Well, you’re not getting it!” “But I think this means something.” “Means what?” Nick shows him his necklace, “Look!”
The other half!
Shawn stares at it blankly, “Where’d you get that! “I’ve had it…since I was a kid.” “What does this mean?” “I was hoping you could tell me.”
The lights turn on, the music turns back on, and everybody was still like statues though. Its funny how one lightning strike can freak out a whole party, still I guess it was a little sudden.
Blake, Abby, and Brad walk over next to Shawn and Nick, the rest sort of stay away from them.
Blake: What is going on?
Shawn grabs the piece that Nick held out, he put his necklace close to his, and it was a perfect fit.
Shawn: I want to know the same thing.
Brad kept quiet through the whole thing, almost like he was secretive about something, I knew things have been on his mind lately, but he never told me, I figured it was just a girl, but when he saw that necklace, it’s almost like he clicked, like he figured something out in his head. I had guessed he knew more about this necklace then he said.
Blake takes the necklaces away from Shawn and studies them.
Shawn yells at Blake, “Hey, don’t…” Blake interrupts him though, “I know I’ve seen this symbol before.” Brad then interrupts Blake, “So have I.”
Nick then says, “What do you all have to do with this? Who are you guys?” Shawn says, “These are my friends Blake, Brad, and Abby.”
Nick grabs his necklace back from Blake, “What do you know about this.”
Blake says, “Follow me!”
It was late, about 10 or so, On the way to wherever Blake was taking us, Abby was full of questions, she was like a talking machine with no off button, Blake led the way, Nick didn’t have many words to say except trying to remember everyone’s name, and Brad, well he said he’s seen it before also, but he was more tight on in then Blake was.
Blake takes a key out of his back pocket and enters the library
Nick, “What are we doing here?”
Blake doesn’t say anything; he just went straight to one of the bookshelves. Shawn goes up to Brad away from everyone else.
Shawn asks, “Where did you see that symbol?” “I saw it….I saw it on the Egyptian tomb they found.” “The one on the news?” “Yes, they keep saying how no one can read the hieroglyphics to it, and how this is so secret; they can’t imagine what’s inside.” “What would that have to do with the necklaces?”
He pulls his out of his shirt, and looks at it again. He sees one horse on two heels, standing up in a way, and a sun in the middle.
“Add it together with Nick’s and you get two horses up against the sun.”
Blake suddenly yells, “Got it!”
He runs back to the main lobby, where he sets a book down on the table, on the front, there is the picture of the two horses, facing each other, with a sun in the middle. “That’s it!” says Nick. Blake opens the book, “It says that long ago, in Egypt over 5,000 years ago, there was a mythical powerful sorcerer named Pridion. This sorcerer wasn’t your average magician. He was the most powerful being on the planet, some say he could take on all the Egyptian gods, and kill them all within a blink of an eye. This sorcerer was a good man though, and made sure not to misuse his power for evil. Later in his life, his wife gave him a son, Pridion wanted his son to have the same powers he did, and so, he gave him some, transferring his powers to his son through touch. However, has his son grew older, he became more rash and violent, he used his magic in evil ways, it is said that he wiped out the entire land of Cairo.
“Now that is a bad man.” Said Nick
Shawn asks, “What happened next?”
Blake replied, “I don’t know the pages are ripped out.”
Brad suddenly says, “Well that sucks, now we don’t know how it ends.”
Blake starts talking again, “Well, all I can say is that you have gathered a mythical and ancient artifact from Egypt, isn’t nothing to it really; Might be worth something.”
Abby says, “Well, what a waste of time, come on, let’s go back to the party, if the people are still there.”
Shawn replies, “You all go ahead, I wanna check some more on this artifact.”
Nick also stays along with Shawn.
So that was it, huh? Just a piece of junk made in Egypt years ago, I guess it could be worth something, but that wasn’t what my mind was on, it was on something else. How is it that Nick and I both have pieces of a medallion that we obtained has children, and I don’t have any recognition of my family. I wonder…..
Shawn says to Nick, “Hey Nick…..let me ask you something, did you….have parents?” “Well, adopted, I was abandoned at a very young age.” “Really? Have any remembrance of them at all?” “This artifact, my adopted parents said it was the only thing I had when they found me, and the adoption agency people said it was like a toy for me, I wouldn’t let it go.”
There is something more to this medallion then meets the eye, What if there’s more to me and Nick that meets the eye, and why am I talking like were Transformers?
“You know, we’ve had these for hours and never put them together, might be cool to have them reunited.” Said Nick
I gave him my side of the medallion, he puts the two together, I thought nothing of it, suddenly, they stick together like strong magnets, and the sun in the middle lights up as bright as the sun itself, the two horses light up in a outlined form. The light was blinding, but somehow I could see exactly what was going on. I saw images that I’ve never seen before. What was this? What was happening? ----Meanwhile in Egypt----
News Reporter: “That’s right, they are working on opening the tomb right now, hopefully the…”
Suddenly the big sun engraved on the casket, which Brad saw, started to light up as bright as the sun. The horses were outlined, the ground started shaking, cracks began to form, as the sand fell through to the core of the earth, the men that were working on it tried to grab onto the casket, but most fell to their deaths down into the cracks.
The reporter tried to keep his balance but he also fell down and so did the cameraman to their deaths, the cries and screams could be heard as they fell, from there on the live feeds to television were dead.
The tomb continued to shine, until where the sun was shining, a fist smashed through it from the inside. There we’re only a few men hanging onto the casket saw this, and were somewhat freaked. The fist goes back in, has another one pierces through the lid of it, suddenly the whole lid and two of the people that were on it, just blew up into dust.
And while the earth shook, and the sand flew around like a sandstorm. Standing up from the casket was a man. A man that looked powerful. He looks down to see one man hanging on the edge of the casket, while he’s trying not to blow off like the others. The Egyptian sorcerer forms a fist, and his hands start to glow, he faces his hands at the man and picked him up using some kind of magical force. The man starts to choke, meanwhile, the sorcerer just stares, and his eyes are glowing blue. The man continues to choke even more, gasping for air. Finally, the man explodes into a powder of dust, and is blown away by the wind.
The sorcerer stands there in the midst of chaos, he takes his fists, raises them up, and takes them down quickly, and peace is returned, the sandstorm is gone, the cracks are filled up, and the casket lie there, empty.
The sorcerer stands up next to his tomb, “buried for so long, so long I’ve waited, but now all will see the wrath of my sorcerer magic, and all will bow down to the new king of the world!!”

CHAPTER 4: Awakened
“What??......Where am I?” “Don’t you recognize me?” Shawn doesn’t answer “It’s me your master.” “Are we training today?” “Yes, we are training for something that may help save the world.” “What can I do to save the world?”
Suddenly Master Chou forms into a taller man, he is wearing purple robe-like clothing, and a hat, and on the front of that hat, was the symbol on the medallion. The setting changes from his training center to a sandy ocean, where you can see nothing but the sand.
“Master Chou?” “I need you to help me!”
Suddenly there appears two young men, there are knelt down beside this king of some sort. They were wearing helmets, and armor, unable to be identified. He puts both of his hands on their foreheads, and the sun on his hat lights up very bright. I could see the power just flowing through his arms, all the way into these two men.
“The magic…..your Pridion.”
The two men stand up, and they pull out their swords, and at the same time they say, “We will do our best to take him down sir.”
“Take who down?”
Pridion takes a piece of a medallion, my eyes widen, and he breaks it in half with his bare hands, and gives it to each of the men. The men take one final bow to him, before they teleport away.
Pridion turns around and starts talking to me, “Do you think they can do it?”
“I…uh, they seem, capable...”
I had no clue what to think except that it seemed familiar, everything he was seeing, but then again, he just read the book.
“Capable yes, with powers like his, I hope that they can take away the evil that has corrupted my son.”
“Evil?”
“Yes, I gave my son powers like mine, he had potential to be a great ruler, but he ruined it by murdering people, and using his powers the wrong way.”
I remembered this from the book, “So, you sent those two men to kill your son?”
“Kill, if necessary, But draining the evil is their primary objective.”
Once again, the setting switches, a big sandstorm comes around, I can’t see a thing, until a bug purple blast comes right toward him, it goes right through him, but on the other side, and he sees the two men. The two men create a magical shield to block the attack, one of the men then charge to the son of Pridion. Pridion takes out his sword, and they begin an amazing sword duel, they were so fast, you couldn’t even see the blade. the second of the two men come from behind to use his sword to slice him in the back, but he creates a magical, sort of hologram-looking sword, in his other hand, and is now fighting both of them.
I couldn’t believe what I was seeing; it was unlike anything he could imagine. The evil sorcerer finally just put up a big shield, one that couldn’t be pierced, there was a huge explosion, pushing the two men back away. And then….there was nothing. The sandstorm was gone; all three men disappeared, or maybe even died.
The scene switches one more time, still in Egypt, it shows at least 10 men working on digging up the casket, the casket has hieroglyphics all over it, and the news reporter is right next to it, while the cameraman is filming.
“The Tomb….what does this have to….”
The ground starts to shake, the sunlight comes right up from the casket, cracks are forming in the ground, and people are falling to their deaths. A huge sandstorm comes; the lid dissipates to sand, along with those on it. A crack in the ground forms below me, but I don’t fall. I see a huge man appear from the casket, he uses his magic to kill the last man there. He then hears the words yelled by this sorcerer, “buried for so long, so long I’ve waited, but now all will see the wrath of my sorcerer magic, and all will bow down to the new king of the world!!”
My eyes widen and I begin to fall through the crack!
“No, no...”
I try to grab onto the edges, but I can’t, and I fall down
“NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!”
Nick takes a deep breath as he wakes up, he sits up, confused. He is sitting on the library floor, it hasn’t even opened yet. He looks over and there is Shawn also lying on the floor, knocked out and asleep….right next to him is the medallion, glued together, like it was never even broken.
Blake walks in the library, and spots Nick and Shawn still there.
Blake says, “Really, the library is quiet, but it’s not really comfortable.”
Nick replies, “Do you guys have a TV in here?”
“This is a library, you really think….it’s in the back door behind the desk.”
Nick runs over and slides over the desk, knocking down some papers. He continues to run though, he opens the door, and there is a small TV in there with a couch, Blake walks in, “What are you so anxious about?”
Nick turns on the TV, and on comes the news about what happened in Egypt.
“Here is the video released, I am sad to say that there are no survivors.”
The video shows of exactly what happened.
Blake, “Oh my goodness”
Nick replies, “That’s not the worst of it; the rest was in my vision.”
“Your vision?”
“Yes, the reason those people are dead, is because he is awakened.”
“Who...who is awakened?”
“The son of Pridion.”

CHAPTER 5: Jonathan
Nick sits down in the Library lobby, along with Shawn; Blake is working his shift at the checkout desk.
“You saw the images too?” asks Shawn. “Yes and even showed what happened down in Egypt….which I must say is downright freaky…this sounds crazy, but it was almost like Pridion was speaking to me.” Nick Said “The guy’s freakin dead! How is he talking to you?” “I don’t know, but the dream seemed so real.” “Well, this story, we both saw it…and were meant to see it. In fact, it sounds like the end of the story that Blake was reading…”
Shawn looks at his necklace one more time, just studying it.
“It’s glued together shut, almost like it was never broken.” “I think we need to do some more studying on this” Nick turns to Blake, “Where is the nearest computer?” “All the computers are upstairs near the science fiction section.” Blake responds while checking out a book.
Nick and Shawn then head upstairs to the computer.
----Meanwhile----
Brad and Abby are inside the movie store looking to rent for something to watch tonight.
Brad asks Abby, “What are you feeling tonight?” Abby says, “Umm, I’m feeling horror today” “Heh heh, alright, you pick it out, I’m going to wait at the front desk.”
Brad walks up to the front desk looking at the coming soon section.
“You know, I hear that Heroes and Villains 2 is supposed to be real good.”
Brad looks up to see a man, about 20 years old, light-brown hair, wearing glasses, talking to him.
“Yeah, I really liked the first one.” “Name’s Jonathan” “I’m Brad, and this is my little sister Abby” he says as she runs up with the movie.
“Revenge of the blood-sucking Vampire Zombies…That is your choice?” “What?”
Jonathan checks out the movie
“Have it back by Thursday.” “Okay!”
Brad is about to walk out when he sees the TV in the top corner of the wall, it is showing the Egypt scene that happened last night.
“Crazy stuff happening, isn’t it?” said Jonathan “Yeah, kind of scary, what do you think about it?” “I think what God’s will is God’s will” Brad turns around and watches the video, “Hey Abby, mind if we take a small side-trip to the library, I want to see Shawn and Nick for a moment.” “Okay.” Jonathan hears the conversation, and leaves his post. ----Meanwhile----
At the library, Shawn is at the computer reading off some old myths.
“It says that Pridion gave powers to his son, but he was too powerful, and blah blah blah…Here we go….Pridion gave the two medallion pieces to two men that were chosen to defeat the evil son of Pridion.” “Wait, I just realized something, does this evil sorcerer have a name?” “It doesn’t say anything.” “He had to though.”
Shawn continues reading…
“He says these two men were given great powers much like his son, and that they were known as…” “Known as what?” “…The Chosen.”
Just then, Brad, Abby, and Blake run up the stairs.
Brad says, “Dude, you guys are never going to believe this…” Nick interrupts, “Me and Shawn put the necklace back together which freed ol’ Pridion’s sorcerer son from his casket, and now he’s come to destroy the world, and me and Shawn are apparently the two men with the great powers that are supposed to save the world and we are called the Chosen.”
Brad, Abby, and Blake just kind of stand there and try to think it over…
Abby asks, “Wait, so you two…have magical powers?” Shawn, “According to the myth, which so far has been real, he gave two men, two pieces of a medallion, and real powers, sound familiar?” “Wow…” Blake mutters.
Suddenly, walking up the stairs is Jonathan.
“Hey, um, you two, I think you left a pair of sunglasses down at the movie store.” Brad looks kind of confused, “Um, we didn’t have sunglasses.” “Oh, sorry, must’ve been someone else’s.”
Jonathan notices the medallion.
“Interesting Medallion you have there.” Nick replies, “It’s a little more interesting than you think.” Jonathan says to himself, “You have no idea.”
Jonathan leaves the building.
Brad then starts talking, “There’s no way you guys are the two men that were chosen to kill him. That was over 5,000 years ago, are you telling me that you are 5,000 years old?” Shawn replies, “This Pridion guy was the most powerful being on the planet, he could have like resurrected us, reincarnated us, anything to bring us back.” “Reincarnated, HA, maybe you’re in the body of some kind of big nerd!” Nick interrupts.
“This is ridiculous! I can’t believe you guys are buying this bull****!”
He storms downstairs.
Nick says, “He’s jealous.” Shawn replies, “Nick…”
Shawn runs down, but he’s only quick enough to see the door close and Brad walk out.
“Wonder what’s got him so worked up…”
He walks back upstairs, and Nick is levitating a book.
Shawn says, “Uh…Nick? How did you do that?” Nick looks at him, “This, my friend….is for real.”
----The next day----
Shawn knocks on the door.
“What?” Brad says. “Can I come in?” Shawn asks. Brad unlocks the door and Shawn walks in. “Okay, Brad, what’s the problem?” “You guys…You both are Chosen to destroy a great evil, and you take it like its nothing.” “What? What do you mean?” “You think it’s cool and all, you taking it has a joke, but this is real Shawn, this evil, these powers that you supposedly have.” “A joke, Brad, I am as serious as the next guy, but hey, if this is what I was meant to do.” “What if you die trying…huh? Not only will I have lost a good friend, I’ve lost a friend that is like a brother to me, and not only that, we’ve lost the world. “Look man, we haven’t even found this sorcerer guy yet, were nowhere close to being ready to fight this guy. And he’s still in Egypt; it will take him a while to get over here, if he’s even coming. Just remember no matter what happens, alive or dead, we’ll always be brothers, just don’t worry about this…you got me?” Brad nods. “Listen, I have to go, I have a fencing lesson today with Nick. I’ll come by later.”
----Meanwhile----
Nick walks into the fencing school, “Master Chou, I am here.” There is no one in sight, the place is dark…”Master Chou?”
He opens a door to the gym where the fights are held, and right in front of him, is Master Chou and a man in Black robe (think Jedi-knight) the sleeves are purple, the hood is over his face, hiding it, all you can see is a purple glow, where his eyes would be. He is holding a sword, and it has stabbed his Master.
He pulls it out, the blood drips out, and Master Chou falls to the ground, he drops the sword and then the man speaks to him, in a deep and horrific voice.
“Hello, Nicholas…You have something of mine, and I want it back now.”

CHAPTER 6: Confrontation
Nick stares right into the eyes of this evil sorcerer. He looks down to see his Master dead, his blood scattered about. To the left he sees the exit, which he could easily escape, but would this evil man care to be seen in public? To the right, he sees a line of swords, Mr. Chou’s collection of them; He could stay and fight, or run. Either way, he’d probably die.
“Give me the necklace, now!”
Nick jumps down and rolls over to the wall, he breaks the glass which the swords are in; he breaks the glass, and grabs two swords.
“If I’m gonna die, I’d rather go down fighting!” “So be it!”
He faces his hand toward Nick, a purple glow forms around his hand…but nothing happens.
“What? Why didn’t you die?” “Looks like I’m more powerful than you think.” “We’ll see”
The Sorcerer puts out both of his hands and a purple magical glow forms, and creates two swords, one in each hand.
“S***”
Nick attacks first trying to stab him, but he teleports away, and appears right behind him, the sorcerer goes for the head, but Nick turns around just in time to block the attack, he then takes his other sword to slash right at his waist but he dodges away.
Sorcerer takes one of his swords to slash up, but blocked, does it again with the other one, but again, it’s blocked, both fighters gained the attack and defense, but neither could pierce through it. During the fight, Shawn walks through the door to see them both fighting.
“What the….”
A purple blast from Sorcerer pushes him through the glass door, and the glass shatters, sending pieces everywhere. Nick uses the distraction to slice at the sorcerer’s stomach area, he hits, has small drips of blood fly across the room, he yells in pain, Nick takes his other sword and goes for the head, but he uses a force to push him back against the wall with the swords. Sorcerer then makes a hazy smoke appear around him, and when it disappears, so does he.
Shawn gets up; he has a few scrapes and cuts on him, while Nick is sweating from the battle.
“Was that…?”
“The evil sorcerer......yes.” “What did he want?” “The necklace…do you have it?” “No, it’s at home, hidden.” “We have to get that necklace before he does, whatever he wants it for, it can’t be good.” “Where’s Master Chou?”
Nick’s eyes peer downward, “Master Chou…is dead.”
Shawn’s eyes widen, “No…he did it, didn’t he?” “I was just a little too late, when I came…” “I am gonna kill that evil son of a…”
----Meanwhile----
Abby opens the front door to her house, Blake is with her.
“Brad! Brad!!...must not be home” Abby yells “So does that mean we can watch that movie now?” Blake asks. “I guess so!” “Sweet!”
----Later----
Shawn and Nick enter Shawn’s home; they search the place to make sure the Sorcerer isn’t in there.
“Looks like he hasn’t been here, you know, for a real powerful sorcerer like him, he’s not very smart, He could blow you away to dust with one single punch, instead, he sword fought you.” “I’m thinking that I really have some kind of power, even if it is just a shield, you saw me levitating that book…” “Then where are my powers!?” “Maybe they haven’t come yet.”
Shawn grabs the necklace and gives it to Nick, “If you’re the one with the powers, this thing is way safer with you than anything else.” “I told Brad I’d visit him tonight, so I’ll be back later.”
----Meanwhile, back at Abby’s----
Blake and Abby are watching the movie they rented that Brad rented yesterday. When suddenly the two windows next to the front door start cracking…slowly, the crack continues to get bigger, Blake notices.
“Uhh, Abby, that window…its cracking.”
Abby looks at it, when suddenly it just blows up, and glass goes flying everywhere, two creatures jump in, the creatures looked like men, but bigger, they were a blackish-blue, had the face of a wolf and had wings, their eyes glowed purple, and they carried a sword.
Abby screams, Blake grabs her arm and they run into the kitchen.
“What are those things?” Abby asks.
The two windows in the kitchen soon start to crack, and explode, in come two more creatures burst through the windows, they both scream, they throw down chairs and run around to where the living room connects again, kind of like there’s a wall to separate the two rooms. They run past the creatures and head upstairs, and run into Brad’s room, where a creature is already lurking in there, he lunges at Abby and Blake, but they close the door.
It smacks into the door, and lets out a howl. It breaks down the door, and looks right, and then left, where Abby and Blake have gone. They both run into the farthest room, and lock the door. The room is empty, a few boxes. Abby pulls out her cell phone and starts to call Brad.
“What do those things want with us?!” Abby yells
The phone continues to ring. They both start to hear pounding on the door; they both stand in the far corner of the room. Brad answers his phone, but finally the door breaks down onto the floor. Two of the creatures come in, and let out a growl. One of the creatures walked up close to them and grabbed Abby’s phone, he then broke it in half, Blake and Abby are kind of wondering what they’re going to do with them. The wolf-men sniff around both of them.
He yells out another growl, and grabs Abby; they start to walk off when Blake grabs a lamp in one of the boxes. He smacks it over one of the creatures’ heads. It breaks, but it doesn’t stun them at all. The creature turns around and smacks Blake right across the face. Knocking him clean out.
“BLAKE!!!” Abby yells, “Let me go!!” She starts pounding on them has the creatures hold her, her bracelet falls breaks off of her. The other creature beside him picks up Blake, and both of the creatures teleport away, along with all the others.
A few minutes later, Brad walks by the house…the door is broken down, and all the windows up front are gone, shattered. He walks inside to see clutter, almost like the place was ransacked. Chairs are knocked over; there are pieces of glass everywhere. He walks upstairs to see Brad’s room all broken down. He continues down the hall to see even more damage done to the walls and rooms, he gets to the farthest one, to see the door broken down, and the glass from the lamp shattered on the ground…He kneels down and picks up the bracelet.
“Abby…”
He quickly runs back down the hall and trips down the stairs, half way down he disappears.
He appears back at his house, he falls on the floor hard.
Nick says, “Hey, I see you finally got your powers going.”
Shawn gets up “Nick, I went to Brad’s, the house was completely damaged…” He shows him the bracelet… “And he’s got Abby!”

CHAPTER 7: Servant
Shawn and Nick sit down at Shawn’s house, thinking over all that has happened. Nick still had the necklace around his neck.
“I don’t understand how this sorcerer could know who Abby was, let alone where she lived!” Shawn says. “This man is all powerful, he could know everything” Nick responded. “If he knew everything, we’d be fighting him for the necklace at this moment.” “Your right…So what do we do?” “We search for this man, and we get her back!”
He walks back into his room, and grabs a sword. He takes a key and unlocks a safe box, inside is money, and a gun. He grabs the gun, and puts it in the holster on his belt, along with the sword, which the holster is one his back. Inside his closet, he grabs a long jacket to cover up his weapons.
He walks back out into the room where Nick was sitting.
“What the heck is that!?” “We have to be prepared, and we can’t be seen carrying all these weapons.” “Wow…” “We’ll stop by your place on the way there.” “Where are we going?” Shawn turns around, “We’re going to the movie store.”
----Later----
Nick gets into the car; he grabbed his sword, and put a jacket on to cover it. “All right, I called Brad and Blake, but I can’t get an answer, I hope they are all right.” said Shawn. “Me too, so, why are we going to the movie store?” “The other day when we were at the library, that man, Jonathan ran up the stairs, he asked Brad if he had lost his sunglasses, which he never even wore…even worse, when he saw that necklace, he knew what it was.” “So you think he has something to do with it?” “That’s what I intend to find out.”
He parks into one of the spots up front, and walk into the movie store, there is a cop outside just checking out the area, Shawn and Nick walk in without any questions though.
Nick walks up to the counter, Jonathan is there reading a magazine.
“You!” Shawn says. “Me?” Jonathan asks. “Yes you, I know you have something to do with that attack on Abby.” “What are you talking about?” Nick tries to bump Shawn to try and calm him down. “You know what I’m talking about, now tell me! I know you followed Brad to us because you knew he knew something about the necklace!” Nick hits Shawn in the back. “Quit!” Shawn says. Nick tries to whisper, “Stop mentioning it all.” He looks over at Jonathan, who is looking all innocent. Shawn turns around and Slams his fist on the counter, “Where is she!?” Jonathan is shocked. The policeman notices this and walks inside, “Hey! What’s the problem in here?” “No Problem!” Shawn yells. “Listen man, I’m afraid I’m gonna ask you to leave.” The cop says. “Not until I get answers.” “Listen bud.” He grabs Shawn’s arm, Shawn takes his arm and pushes him away, but a blue glow covered his arm, and pushed the cop through the wall of the movie store, knocking all the movies down, and putting a big hole in the wall. “I think we should leave.” Nick says. Shawn gives Jonathan a dirty look and then they both run out the door. Jonathan just stands there and walks out. He reaches into his pocket, and pulls out a small walkie-talkie and says, “They just left.” A deep voice returns through it, “On my way.”
Shawn and Nick enter their car, and drive off, cops arrive a few minutes later, but nobody is in the store, not even Jonathan. “Dude, you almost lost it back there, you okay?” “I’m just trying to get Abby back!” “Why are you so worried, we’ll get her.” “Yeah, but I told Brad not to worry about any of this stuff going on…and if he ever found out that he had captured her…I don’t even know…I just…” Suddenly they feel something jump onto the top of the car, Shawn looks out his window real quick to see a black suited man.” Shawn tries to swerve him off, but it does no good, he turns right quickly at the next red light, causing others to stop quickly, a few cops see him, and give chase to the car. The man is still on top. Finally they come close to the docks. Shawn says to Nick, “On three we jump out….1….2…3!”
They jump out of the car, sending it flying into the river, the man teleports away before he could get wet. Nick and Shawn stand up, and three cop cars stop and corner them, pull their guns out, and tell them to put their hands up, which they do.
One of the cops walks over slowly, still pointing his gun to make sure there are no sudden movements, but a random purple blast comes from the ground, knocking the cop into the air. “Did you do that?” whispered Shawn. “Uh, no…”
The cops are stunned, as the wolf creatures appear from the buildings behind them, there are at least ten!
Shawn then mutters, “Uh, police people?” “Shut up, kid, let’s cuff em” The wolf creatures then jump down, and start attacking the three cops, Two of them went after the guy that was already half-dead, and started sniffing around him. Another two went after the leader, and the rest divided between the other cops. They were biting and scratching and throwing around. Nick and Shawn ran over and tackled a few of the creatures, and punched them down, but there were too many. Nick went over to blast two of them away, but one came behind and bashed him on the head, knocking him down and out. Shawn tried to teleport quickly around one, punching it has he goes, but it caught on and punched him in the gut.
Once they were done they all jump over to the edge of the docks, and just stand there. Shawn gets up from the blow, and looks around, he sees blood scattered all over the cement, three cops dead, with open gashes, and claw marks, broken limbs, it was nasty. Nick finally gets up rubbing his head. He looks over to where the creatures are lined up. And then coming down from the sky was not the sorcerer, but another man, he was dressed in all black, almost as if the clothing was his skin, his eyes glowed a big purple, and he was wearing a black mask.
“How do you plan on taking down the new king if you can’t handle a few Spartans?
“Spartans?” Shawn asks. “I think he means the wolf people.” Nick says, “Who are you!?” “I am the King’s right hand man, Zolephus.” “At least you have a name…What is the name of this king?” Shawn asks. “If I told you that, then you would know who he is, and I can’t do that.” Zolephus replies. “Then we’ll just have to get it out of you.” Shawn says.
Nick and Shawn throw off their jackets, and both pull out their swords, Zolephus creates a sword with his magic, and gets ready to fight. The Spartans start growling, as if they are getting ready to attack.
“Stand down, I want this fight.” Zolephus told the Spartans, they all teleport away. Zolephus runs straight toward Shawn and Nick, his sword in a perfect attack position, Shawn uses his blue force to push him back into the ocean, he jumps out of the way, Nick does the same thing, but he jumps back to the other side, Nick and Shawn find the pattern and both do it at the same time, but he just teleports away, behind Nick and Shawn, they turn around, and Nick receives a kick to the face, Zolephus puts his sword to Shawn, which he blocks just in time, they lock their swords.
“Where’s Abby!”
Zolephus doesn’t answer.
“I said, where is she!?”
He knocks him back and out of position, Shawn runs forward, and his sword glowing blue, runs over to him, and slices at his sword, cutting it right in half! Zolephus is surprised by the power he has used, Shawn attacks once more, he teleports above him, and kicks his sword away, then ducks under when Shawn punches and Zolephus swings his legs.
Zolephus sees the perfect opportunity to finish him off, but Nick jumps over with his sword, and slices him on the arm, cutting the suit and his arm, blood drips from the arm. He holds his arm, trying to stop it. He looks up at Nick and Shawn, standing strong.
“You can’t stop him, you two are powerful, but he is powerful enough to be a god, and you will not stop him! He teleports away.
“Don’t worry, Shawn, we’ll find them.” “Why didn’t he kill me when he had the chance?” “Beat’s me.” “Where do we go to next?”
----Meanwhile----
In a hidden Location, not much is visible, it’s dark, you can see a cage though, there is a small light next to it, much like a jail cell, Blake is battered against the wall, his face is bleeding, and he has bruises on him, Abby is sitting in the corner not watching, and crying.
“You make one more mistake, and I’ll kill him!” a deep voice says. Two men leave the cage, and they lock the cell.
Blake just falls down in the corner, tired and hurting, Abby runs over to check on him, “Are you okay?” Blake blacks out, “Don’t worry Blake, we’ll get outta this!”

CHAPTER 8: Captured
Blake and Abby sit down in their cell, not making a movement. Not even the slightest noise came from them; you’d think they’re dead. But they were awake, and things were going through their minds, what was it? It was an escape plan.
Sorcerer comes over along with Zolephus. Sorcerer opens the gates. “What? No getaway tries? No bad-mouthing? Nothing!?...You guys are the worse prisoners ever!” He leaves, and Zolephus waits back to close the gates, but Zolephus drops something inside the gate…still no movement from Abby or Blake…maybe they were dead!...Zolephus closes and locks the gates, and leaves the cell room.
Blake sees the object on the ground, which are an extra pair of keys. “Why would he leave us the keys?” Abby asks “Why question this amazing gift from God!” Blake responds. Abby just stares at him. “What?” Blake says. “Nothing, let’s get out of here!” Blake takes the keys and unlocks the gate. They open the next door which leads to the main part of the hideout. Blake and Abby spot Zolephus and the evil sorcerer. Over on the right is a big table that extends all the way to the ground, which on it looks like some old Egyptian plates, and on the right is another door. “That has to be the exit.”
“But how are we going to get past both of them?” Abby asks
Blake and Abby continue to watch and listen to what they’re talking about.
“So, are you ever going to let them go?” Zolephus asks. “I will after the Chosen are dead! Although I don’t see how it matters as all are going to bow down to me, and by the way I plan to rule, Death has to be somewhat better.” “I tried to kill them, they’re too powerful.” “You did not! You let them go! And you know it.” Zolephus takes off his mask, to reveal the face to Brad and Abby. They are shocked by what they see. “I’m not a killer!” “No, you’re not, but if you want to have any chance of survival you’ll do as I say; now go, and bring me their heads! Blake and Abby close the door softly, “I can’t believe it!” Blake says. “Me neither…” Abby also says.
----Meanwhile----
Shawn and Nick check out the movie store again which is cleaned of the cops. “Jonathan left, I know he has something to do with this.” Shawn says. “You have no idea if this Jon kid does or not!” “I’ll take any lead I can.” Shawn walks out of the movie store, when Zolephus is spotted a few blocks away, flying away from them. “Nick!” Shawn yells. Nick runs out to see Zolephus flying away. “Think we could do that?” Shawn kneels down, charging up strength, you could see the purple glow on his feet; suddenly he blasts off like a rocket. Nick just stands and watches from a distance. He can see Shawn jump high in the air, he’s not flying, but he is getting some distance, and his high enough to get position on Zolephus. He tackles him out of the air, and they both slam though the rooftop, and into a bathroom. They look around and see some man on the toilet reading a newspaper. He is stunned in fear. “Oh, that’s real nice” Shawn says. Zolephus grabs him from behind, and throws him through the other wall, Shawn flies out and lands on the road, cars swerve out of the way. Zolephus jumps out, and grabs Shawn by the neck, he pulls out his sword…but doesn’t make an attempt to kill him, but Shawn gains attention though and kicks his sword away, and kicks him in the groin. In pain by the attack, he drops Shawn who grabs his head and punches him in the face. “Where is ABBY!” He doesn’t answer in fear of what the sorcerer will do to him. Shawn continues punching him, and then jumps in the air; his whole leg suddenly turns into a purple glow around it, and kicks Zolephus back into the brick building. Shawn runs in and gets down to Zolephus. “I give up! I’m done!” Shawn grabs the mask, and pulls it off. He sees the face and falls to his knees. “Brad!?” “I’m sorry…I had to do it!” “Had to do what!?” “He captured them, both of them!” “What, who, Brad, Give me answers!” “Okay! It was just yesterday when…”
“I was sitting at the library, still ticked at you both at least a little bit, your talk really helped, when all of a sudden, my phone starts to ring, It’s Abby at first I thought it was nothing, but, I heard screaming and pounding, I yell for her, but her phone went out. I was worried, so I ran home and saw nothing but a broken house…I didn’t know what to think, except that Abby and Blake were both probably gone.”
“I searched the house and found nothing, I didn’t know what to do except go to the police, and I ran around the video store, when out in the alley, something grabbed me! I look and I see the sorcerer. All I saw were those big purple eyes! I’ve never been so scared in my life.” “I was just still for the moment, when he explained all that he wanted was the Chosen dead. He told me to become one of his men, or Abby and Blake would be killed.”
“I see.” Shawn says.
“I’m sorry, I had to or he would’ve killed them.” “You have to take me back to their hideout!” “I can’t go back without you being dead…He’d kill me, Abby and Blake.” Nick finally catches up to where Shawn is, “Man you got some ups…Brad!” “Don’t worry, he’s somewhat cool…” Shawn helps up Brad. Nick says, “Wait! What’s going on!?” Shawn says to Brad, “So, can you take us to the hideout, so we can save Blake and Abby!” “Only if you’re dead…otherwise, Abby and Blake are.” “Really…I think I have an idea.” Nick then screams, “Will someone tell me what’s going on! PLEASE!!!” Shawn replies, “I’ll explain it on the way.” “Follow me” Brad says.

CHAPTER 9: Secrets
Brad bangs open the door and enter the hideout, he’s all battered and bruised, and his mask is still off. “So, did you kill them?” Brad walks back upstairs, and throws to big body bags down next to the sorcerer. “They’re dead, now let Blake and Abby go!” “Did you really think I’d let you or them go?” The Sorcerer charges up his powers and starts draining Brad’s powers out of him, and back into himself. “Ahhh, tasty….now to finish the job.” He charges up again, and is about to use his powers to blow Brad into dust! But a powerful blue beam shoots out of the body bag and hits the sorcerer right in the head, knocking him back, and throwing his hood off. Shawn and Nick then use their swords to cut out of the bags. They stand firm, as the Sorcerer gets up from his fall. “I knew it….Jonathan.” Shawn says. “You all are smart I’ll give you that, but I still have the upper hand…” “How is that?” Nick asks. Sends two blasts up from the ground, not surprising Nick and Shawn who dodge out of the way, Jonathan runs toward the door holding the prisoners, and opens it. “Don’t move!” Nick yells. “Or what? You’ll shoot another one of your weak beams at me?” “Don’t tempt me.” He quickly runs through the open door, and dodges the few blasts, Nick and Shawn quickly jump in there, and he has Abby and Blake held in the air by levitation with one hand, ready to kill them at any second. “Don’t tempt me.” Jonathan says. Blake looks at Abby, Abby nods, and While Jonathan isn’t looking he grabs the keys out of his pocket that Brad left. “Hey Johnny boy!” Blake says. He turns around and the key jabs right in his left eye, he drops them; Blake, Abby and Brad quickly run out. Nick and Shawn stand there. “It’s over Jon; you’re not going to win this.” “Oh! But I believe I can. Just because Pridion brought a few of his men back to life, doesn’t mean they’re going to win again!” “What?” Nick asks. “What? You don’t know.” “Yeah, we fought each other, over 5,000 years ago...I remember you both all too well…even your names are the same, and how do you think I found you in the first place?”
Hey Abby, mind if we take a small side-trip to the library, I want to see Shawn and Nick for a moment.”
“It doesn’t matter though, because you and this whole rotten world will either die or bow down to king Cradleman!” “So you do have a name.” Nick says.
Jonathan snarls at him, and sends two powerful blasts at them both, knocking them through the wall, Jonathan quickly runs out and up the stairs, he ends up in the movie store, which the hideout was in the basement of. Nick and Shawn quickly run upstairs and find Jonathan quickly flying out the door.
“Still think we can do that?” Nick asks.
Both Shawn and Nick get into a launch position. “Ready?” Shawn asks. “Let’s go.”
Both launch right through the video store’s windows. They see Jonathan up ahead flying faster than them, Shawn and Nick turn up the speed though, by sending blasts behind them, they are flying way over the ocean now. They catch up with Jonathan, who stops suddenly, sending Nick and Shawn at least a few miles ahead of him, they turn around, Jonathan’s eyes turn a bright purple, and around them starts to turn black.
He emits a dark black object from the water, it was slithering toward Nick and Shawn like a snake, and he brings up another one from behind them.
Nick yells, “What is he doing?”
The black rope-like projections snap at Nick and Shawn and wrap them up in themselves. Some purple electric jolts send down the rope, and shock both Shawn and Nick. Jonathan hovers right next to them; his face has turned a gray, while his eyes glow purple. “You haven’t seen the true evil side to me yet.”
Nick and Shawn then grab the swords out of their holsters and slice the black like ropes; it turns into sand as the whole thing dies from one slice. “You haven’t seen the heroic side of us yet.” King Cradleman pulls out his sword. “Then let’s see it!” they begin a huge sword fight while still flying in the air.
Jonathan goes for the head, but Nick flies lower and goes for the punch in the gut, he does a flip in the air, and throws his sword at Shawn, who dodges out of the way, Nick yells, “LOOK OUT!” Shawn turns around, and it’s flying back to him, he quickly moves out of the way, before suffering impalement.
Jonathan grabs his sword as it flies back to him. Suddenly a great bellow is heard, they all look around to see what it is, when a tower of water comes up, they look down and a whale is at the surface, breathing. Jonathan just kind of smirks as he flies down near the creature, he then uses his levitating skills to bring it up. “You are freakin kidding me.” Shawn says. Jonathan throws the whale at Shawn and Nick, and they smash into the water, along with the whale on top of them. The Whale just bellows and swims back down under, to try to avoid flying again. Shawn and Nick rise to the top of the ocean, both in great pain.
Jonathan flies down toward them and grabs them both by the backs of their shirts. He flies super quickly back into town, and flying at about the speed of sound, he releases Nick and Shawn, and when they come to, they are speeding towards a brick building, they slam right through it and the next one and the next one, before finally losing momentum and slamming into a wall inside a house.
They both are unconscious.
I see nothing but sand, nothing at all but sand. Until he appears before me, Pridion, and he says to me, “You’re losing faith.” I just stand where I am. “He is very powerful sir, too powerful.” “Not for you Shawn. I gave you powers over 5,000 years ago…and you beat him! You gave your lives, but you killed him. You combined yours and Nick’s powers to create a massive one-two punch, you created a huge explosion of sand, and his was the only body recovered, which is why he is alive today. He was given the proper burial, while your bodies where to never be found. “But, how are we here?” “After seeing a vision of Cradleman’s return, I knew that you two were the only ones that had the power to stop it; I used all my power, to bring your souls back into a newborn body. “So we were reincarnated?” “Think of it has reborn, more than reincarnated, just remember to fight strong, and you will defeat this evil man, for a poor father I was, and now, I am sorry, that you and your friends must pay for my mistakes. I wish the best to you.” He fades away into sand as a sandstorm comes through, and everything goes black. Shawn, still out, hears his name continually. “Shawn……Shawn….Shawn….”

CHAPTER 10: Destiny
----Few Minutes ago----
Brad, Abby, and Blake run out of the hideout, while Nick and Shawn fight Jonathan. They run out of the movie store and into the alley by the building.
Abby walks over to Brad and slaps him across the face, she starts crying.
“Why are you helping this maniac!?” “I had to do it, to save you! And I did with the help of Nick and Shawn.” “Still, just seeing you with him…” She starts to cry, as she runs into Brad and hugs him. Blake just continues to watch the hallmark moment. A big crash is suddenly heard; Blake, Abby and Brad look out of the alley, and spot Jonathan, Shawn, and Nick flying out of the movie store. “Look how fast they are!” Blake shouts. All three run over to the docks to get a good look of the fight as much as possible. They see black tendrils sling up from the ocean. At least that’s what it looks like. They were so far out; they all looked like little black dots. Suddenly, Abby, Blake, and Brad’s eyes al widen as they see Jonathan bring up a whale. “This guy is ridiculous.” Brad says. “Pretty powerful…” Abby continues. They all gasp as the whale smacks them into the ocean, and as he’s flying back, with both of them in his hands, he lets go off them, as Jonathan flies away, the three friends watch Nick and Shawn fly through the buildings. It sounded like a rocket passing by. Brad runs by all the buildings they went through. Abby is in shock, thinking they are dead, Blake and Abby follow Brad, “Where are they?” he asks. “Hold on…”Brad says. They continue to run by the line of buildings, “This one isn’t broken, they didn’t go through it, they’re in the house, let’s go!” Blake, Abby, and Brad run up the stairs until they find a big gaping hole. “There they are!” Shawn and Nick are both covered in dust, bruises, and blood. Brad runs over to Shawn and starts to shake him. “Shawn……Shawn…..Shawn…” His eyes open a small bit. “Stop shaking me...” “Sorry, bud, I’m just glad you’re alive…” “Me too, now if you’ll excuse me, Nick and I have a king to kill.” Abby and Blake are over by Nick, they check his pulse, and it’s very slow. “Is he alive!?” Shawn asks. “Yes, but I think he’s fading.” Blake says. Shawn gets up and kneels down next to him. “Come on, Nick…Not now…I need you man.” Nick begins to come to conscience. All four of them sigh of breath of relief. “Did we win?” Nick asks. “We’ll were not winning, he’s still out there.” Shawn says. “Well why are we sitting on our butts then?” “Good answer, let’s kill this sorcerer, and save this world.” Shawn offers his hand, and Nick grabs it, he pulls him up. “Let’s do this.” Nick says. Jonathan appears in the middle of the room, “You still want to fight me!? You have determination, why don’t we take this where it first began!” Before anyone could react a cloud of smoke appeared and sucked them all in, and they teleported half way across the country.
Blake, Abby, and Brad, stunned by the transportation look over at Shawn and Nick, who looked different. They didn’t look like the Shawn and Nick searching for answers…They looked like the heroes they were meant to be…The chosen.
Brad looks around the surroundings…All they saw was a sea of sand…nothing in view. Jonathan came down from the sky. Flying around him were 2 Spartans, stronger and bigger than the others. Both of them fly down to Nick and Shawn, Nick grabs onto the tail of one and hangs onto it, standing in his place, he stopped it from taking off, he slams it into the ground. Takes his sword and stabs it right in his back.
The other Spartan flew to Shawn, The Spartan pulled out his sword, which looked like it was made of Rock, and gets in position to stab Shawn, but he jumps above him as soon as he gets close enough, the Spartan continues to fly with him on his back, Shawn maintains control, and as soon as the Spartan turns his head around, Shawn slices it off, and his body slams right into the ground, Shawn jumps off the body, and lands right next to Nick.
King Cradleman is in surprise at how quickly the Spartans were brought down. He falls to the ground landing on his feet. Abby, Blake, and Brad watch from the distance, but still close enough they could see what was happening.
Nick and Shawn pull out their swords, and get ready to defend. Cradleman creates two swords, and gets ready to attack. They stood there for the longest time, almost like they were studying their opponent intensely. Until Jonathan finally makes his move, he charges at Nick and Shawn quickly. They don’t move, just stand their ground.
Jonathan uses one sword against Shawn and one against Nick. All three are fighting fiercely, and it was like they already had the battle planned in their heads, like they knew what the attack was going to be 5 attacks beforehand. Brad, Abby, and Blake were stunned by what they saw. Jonathan attacks left, Shawn blocks left, Jonathan attacks right, Nick blocks right…and that was just a split-second of the fight.
Finally, Shawn got a quick advantage when he ducked down, and slashed at Cradleman’s ankles, knocking him over, Shawn then pulled out the gun he stored, and shoots him in the heart… blood starts to spurt out.
“Is that it? Is it over?” Brad asks An earthquake comes, shaking the whole land. Shawn and Nick try to keep balance. “I don’t think so!” Abby yells.
Cracks start to form, as the sand falls through, Jonathan’s body starts to spas out. His bullet wound heals up, and he gains conscience, the earthquake stops, and Jonathan stands up. “What?” nicks asks. “Evil is a powerful friend, especially if you’re dying…” “He’s so powerful; he can bring himself back from the dead.” Nick says. “But only if he has a body to bring back from the dead.” Shawn says. Jonathan shoots purple beams out form his hands, Nick and Shawn jump around, roll around, and do anything they can to dodge the attacks. “How can they kill a man that can resurrect himself?” Blake asks. “They have to destroy the body…” Brad says. Jonathan continues to pound them with attacks; Nick and Shawn continue to dodge. “I’m sick of playing cat and mouse with this guy!” Nick says. He stops dodging and stands up, a beam heads right toward him, And Nick shoots a blue beam right at the purple beam, they try to make each other’s beam stronger…it fluctuated between the power, sometimes Nick would overtake, and sometimes Jon would…Shawn saw an opportunity to attack, and he jumped behind Jonathan, and threw a ball of power at his back, knocking him out of the air, Nick beam continued to get stronger though, and it also hit Jonathan in the chest, it was a double attack, Jonathan was weakened. As he fell to the floor Shawn flew quickly at him and grabbed his leg, he flew toward Shawn who stuck his sword out, and Shawn took Jonathan’s body and Nick impaled him with the sword. Jonathan fell to the ground. Nick and Shawn stare at him, thinking it‘s finally over, Nick kneels down to check closer, and Jonathan grabs his throat, and squeezes, Shawn runs to stop him, but Jonathan shoots out a beam, knocking him backwards. Jonathan continues to choke, has he uses his other hand to grab the necklace from his neck. “Finally, I have it!!!” Jonathan lets go and Nick gasps for air, Shawn runs over to Nick. Jonathan starts at the necklace, and starts chanting Egyptian language, nobody can tell what he is saying, except for him of course, Black clouds start to cover the sky, and lightning flashes around him. Blake, Abby, and Brad back away in fear, but are also stunned in awe. The wind picks up, sand starts to fly. “There’s no way to defeat this man! We can only do so much to the body!” Shawn says. “You know the way out of this!” Nick yells “I…I can’t do it!” “You have to…for the world!!” Shawn looks back at Brad, Abby, and Blake…a tear rolls down his face; he looks back at Nick…”For the world, and for my friends.” Shawn and Nick fly up to Jonathan, who is having a power house, the lightning shocks at Jonathan, but he absorbs all the power. Jonathan yells, “You still want to fight, I have the power of Pridion! The power of nature! The power of god!!” Nick looks at Shawn, and Shawn at Nick, they nod, Shawn and Nick’s body’s start to glow as they seem to be charging in power. “What are they doing?” Brad asks. “They’re…winning…” Blake answers. Suddenly a huge flash comes from Nick and Shawn, Jonathan stares at them, still curious on what they’re doing, he then looks at his hands…they are starting to blow away into sand…”NO!” He tries to move, but he is frozen in place, he tries to move his head around, he can’t jerk free. Until finally his head freezes, and soon a big explosion of light appears, Blake, Abby and Brad shield their eyes from the light.
Nick and Shawn finally lose all their power, they stop, and stand there. Time seems to stop, the light is still flashing, and Nick and Shawn stand there in the air, and stare at Jonathan, frozen in place, his body blowing back into dust. Shawn mutters, “Goodbye, Brother.”
Brad’s eyes perk open as he heard the whisper. “No…” he whispers back.
The time continues again, and the explosion goes away, Shawn, Nick, and Jonathan’s bodies are blown away into the dust, they fall to the ground. The light disappears, and the cracks in the ground form back.
Suddenly, there is calmness in the world.
Brad, Abby, and Blake sit there in the sand, and just stare out into the land…seeing nothing but sand.
“He’s gone…” Brad says. “They’re gone…” Abby and Blake start to tear up, as so does Brad… “They’re all gone…” Brad says.
His head face downward; tears start to fall from his face. He remembers words said by him earlier.
Just remember no matter what happens, alive or dead, we’ll always be brothers
“Brothers to the end.” He says...”Brothers to the end.
Blake and Abby look over and see three camels coming toward them. Once they see them, the man on the camel asks, “Kids, out in the middle of the desert, would you like a ride? We’re heading to Cairo, only a few miles away from here.” Abby and Blake hop on the camels…a sad look in their eyes. “Brad?” Abby calls.
Brad looks behind him, he climbs on the camel. They take them to Cairo.
There was more to Nick and Shawn then I saw. They had a destiny to fulfill, a destiny that saved this earth from total destruction and death. I believe what God’s will is God’s will, an unlikely man told me that, and even though his will took 5,000 years in the making. It saved us and the world, and that, readers, is the story of the Chosen.
Brad finished reading the book. This was about 5 years after the story. He turns the book over, and on the back it says, based on a true story, Written by Brad Davis, dedicated to my brother Shawn, and my friend Nick. A tear rolls down his face, has he reads the back, and it falls onto the book. He puts the book back onto the shelf, turns the light off, and leaves the room.
THE END
