Before The Chosen

by Austin Henshaw

 

CHRISTOPHER

 

The 25-year-old, Christopher was walking towards the forest. He came from the village of Aladfar, a small village with a population around 30. His lust was for power. He wanted to become the most powerful man on Earth and the reason he was moving was because he couldn’t get it there. Christopher was heading for a bigger village with a population of 800. It was the village of Sweet Water. The fountain of the Gods was there. Any one that drank from the fountain would get more energy. This was a rumor. The citizens of Sweet Water say it just gets you enlivened. This didn’t matter to him. He had to see if this story of the fountain was true.

Also Sweet Water had better jobs. He had been a cart pusher, pushing carts filled with food to the market. It wasn’t a long walk since it was a small village but the carts packed with food where hard to push. In Sweet Water he could be an engineer, prefect, farmer, priest, trader, actor, teacher, senator, or tax collector. The only other job Aladfar had was to be a trader.

It was in the middle of the night and he decided to go through the forest to get to Sweet Water. It would take longer if he went around. Christopher stopped at the forest edge and thought. The forest had a reputation for murder. Many dead bodies had been found and people believed there were vampires and other evil creatures in the forest. Christopher didn’t believe in any of that rubbish so he started walking through the forest.

The shadows of the trees made human like figures. Christopher felt a chill and heard footsteps. He stopped and the footsteps stopped. It must have been his mind trying to play tricks on him he thought. After he started walking he realized it was. Christopher felt satisfied and relieved. Then he noticed he was coming for a clearing and it looked like there was a tent and a fire.

He started to walk toward it then he stepped on something that made a cracking noise. He looked down and noticed he stepped on a hand adjoined to a dead body. Christopher covered his nose and walked back a little. He had a feeling he shouldn’t be there because the body seemed to be freshly killed. Christopher noticed the man had a blood stained sword and picked it up. He would use it for defense. He walked up towards the clearing again and noticed a formidable sight. There was a man all dressed in black with a black cloak sucking blood from a young lady with a pink dress!

Christopher hid behind a tree but the man saw him. "I guess vampires are true" said Christopher to himself aghast. The man dressed in black started walking towards the tree. Christopher then ran out and swung his sword at the man. The blade cut the man’s arm but the man pulled the blade out then he jumped on Christopher as if he wasn’t feeling any anguish. Christopher swung at the man’s neck and the blade touched the neck. The man screamed and rolled off Christopher. Christopher jumped up and looked at the man straight in the eyes. "Who and what are you?" asked Christopher, staring at the yellow eyes. "I’m Dracula, you should know the rest" the man said and then he jumped on Christopher revealing 2 fangs and bit his neck. Then he lifted his head up and Christopher saw his own blood coming from the vampire’s mouth. Christopher then felt his life draining from him. Dracula then bit Christopher’s neck again and Christopher closed his eyes and stopped breathing. Dracula then stopped drinking and started choking. He turned into dust on the spot. A black light formed and it went through the dead Christopher. Then Christopher jumped up. He wasn’t Christopher though. He was a vampire. He was the most powerful vampire in the world in fact. He now had the power he wanted. Then he walked back to his village. The next morning everybody in the village was dead.

 

 

Valurias

 

A young looking female with leather armor and a purple cloak appeared at the town gates. The odd thing was she didn’t even travel to get there. It was like she appeared out of no where. Her name was Valurias and she was a sorceress. She was like a magic scientist. She was always studying magic and making potions. Nobody knew about her being a sorceress except for her friend Gabry and some of the people in the town that looked up to her. Gabry lived in the town she was in front of, Aladfar.

Valurias thought it was odd that nobody was walking on the streets. She decided to go straight to her friend’s house to see how she was doing. She walked into the village of wooden houses and her friend’s house was past the market, the only market in the town. There was nobody at the market. It was about noon and the market didn’t even open yet thought Valurias. Something must have happened!

Valurias ran towards her friend’s house and knocked on the door. There was no answer. She knocked again. There was still no answer. Valurias put her hand on the doorknob and whispered something, and the door opened.

Valurias looked in and gasped. There was blood everywhere and she saw her friend’s dead body. Valurias ran over to look at her and felt her heartbeat. Nothing. She felt her pulse. Nothing. Then she raised her hands over her hoping that she could still be brought back, then said HEAL. A blue light surrounded her friend then her friend jumped up and there was no blood on her body. " Your alright Gabby! What happened?" Valurias said hugging her friend. Then she noticed her friend’s body was really cold and her skin was still white. Valurias stepped back and looked into her friend’s eyes. They were glowing yellow and she had pointed teeth!

Valurias screamed and jumped back. " Ha, you have brought me back thy friend," said Gabby in a voice that wasn’t her own, an evil voice. " You have helped me come to my assession" Gabby said, her eyes glowing red now. Valurias jumped away then Gabby growled and jumped on her. Gab’s teeth almost came to Valurias’ neck but an invisible force threw her back. Valurias had a necklace with a cross hanging on it. Valurias held the cross out and Gabby was drawn back. Valurias started advancing to her while she was going back.

She didn’t want to but she would have to kill her. She was no longer human. She was no longer Gabby. Valurias wiped a tear from her eye then stabbed Gabby through the heart with the fireplace poker. Gabby looked at her with hurt eyes and said, "How could you-," but turned to dust in mid sentence.

Valurias fell to the floor, her hands over her tear stained eyes. After lying on the floor for 5 minutes she finally got up. She had to tell the people in the town what had happened. Valurias took a quick luck at the dust that was her friend and walked out the door. She decided to walk to the local pub. She opened the door and walked in. Then she screamed. There were 5 dead bodies on the floor. All with puncture wounds on their necks. . Everybody in the town must be dead she thought. She grabbed her necklace and started walked towards the 5 dead bodies. They were all people she knew. Then the next thing that happened shocked her.

All the people jumped up and stared at her. Their eyes were glowing yellow and they had fangs. They were also all growling. Then one of them jumped on her. She pushed him off of her then she pulled her hands back and pointed at him. He went flying a couple feet. Then she held out her hand and said fireball. A ball of fire formed in her hand and she threw it at him. He was thrown back by the flame and burned. Then the other 4 vampires jumped in front of her and she ran through the door and shut it. She muttered something and the door locked. She would have to kill the vampires. She held out both her hands and fire formed in them. Then she threw it at the pub. The place started on fire and she heard the vampires tortured screams. The building exploded then. Then she started running towards the other houses to see if everybody else was dead but she saw something that answered her question. Pure black clouds covered the sun making everything dark. Then people walked from all the houses. All their eyes were glowing and they had fangs.

Then about 20 people started running towards her. Valurias screamed and tried to think of something to do. Then she looked up at the black clouds. She chanted " Sun reveal your light." Then the black clouds vanished and the sun shone bright. All the other people screamed and she noticed they were getting blisters all over. Then they all started on fire. Valurias started to walk back like she was being repelled from the heat of the fire. Then in a couple of minutes there was just dust. All the houses in the town were on fire. Everything was on fire. She fell down on the ground crying.

 

 

A Night 5 Years Later

 

The Labrador ran past the market in Sweet Water with some meat in his mouth. He ran around a house and looked around. Since Sweet Water was a big village it was easy to get lost. It was nighttime and he was looking for Valurius’s house. Valurius was his owner. He looked and noticed a man walking with a black cloak. He had a bad feeling about the man. He was talking to 2 other men who were also all dressed in black with black cloaks. Then he noticed another thing about them. Two of them had yellow glowing eyes. The one he saw first had pure black eyes. The one with the black eyes was Christopher!

The dog dropped the meat and hid behind a house. The dog’s name was Max. He was listening to a conversation they were having. " Master, you aren’t powerful enough to kill her, she destroyed all those vampires in Aladfar easily 5 years ago," said one of the men with yellow eyes. " She has to die, I suspect she knows I did it," said the man with the black eyes. He must be their master Max thought. " How does she know?" asked the other man with yellow eyes. The one with the black eyes turned around and growled revealing 2 sharp fangs!

" Stephen, August, I am your master, don’t ask me questions," said the man with black eyes. " We are sorry Christopher," said one of the vampires with yellow eyes. " Stephen, from now on I want to be referred to as The Master," said "The Master". Max realized that they must have been planning to kill Valurias.

Max ran behind to the vampire named Stephen and bit his leg. Stephen didn’t notice him and he fell on August and they both fell to the ground. Max hid behind a house then. " Will you two ignorant fools get up!" said The Master. " Somebody pushed me," said Stephen rubbing dirt off his cloak. Then the master smelt the air. " Behind that house," he said pointing at the house where Max was hiding behind. Stephen and August ran behind the house but Max ran to the other side. Then the master saw him. He held out his hand and a sword with a black blade appeared. He swung the sword at Max and there was a bright black light. Max felt the energy being took out of him. Then he heard somebody say fireball and he felt his energy being restored.

Max looked up and then he felt secure. Valurias was there and she was pointing her staff at the master. " Christopher, I knew it must have been you," said Valurias keeping her staff pointed at him. " Oh I’m not Christopher, call me master," said the master. " What happened that night 5 years ago?" asked Valurias who was very tense. " Well I was actually coming for this town, I went through the forest and then there was Dracula there himself," said the master who kept his eyes on Valurias. " Then he attacked me, I tried to fight back and he finally bit me, then he started choking and turned into dust, then his powers were transferred to me," said the master who pointed his sword at Valurias. " You were destined to be the vampire master, Dracula couldn’t drink from you without it killing him," said Valurias who was very scared. She had powerful magic, but not enough to destroy a vampire master.

Stephen and August were standing behind Max. " Should we kill him Master," asked Stephen. " He’s just a dog you idiots, I don’t care," said the master in a strange voice. Max jumped away from them and then the master pointed his sword at Valurias and a black energy ball went towards her. She bent down and a white energy ball appeared and it collided with the black one. They started spinning around each other and the white one disappeared and it started going towards Valurias. She stretched her hands out quickly and white light went around her. The black energy ball hit the white light and the light turned black!

" Hehehe, you fell for it, now you’re trapped," said the master. Valurias raised her staff and concentrated very hard and the black light disappeared. " You are a powerful sorceress," said the master pointing his sword at Valurias. Valurias raised her hands and a white energy ball formed and she threw it at the master. He raised his sword but the energy ball hit him before he could do anything. He was thrown back and hit Stephen and August who were chasing Max. Then Valurias raised her hands and sunlight started hitting them. They all got up and the master raised his sword really quick and a black energy ball went flying towards Valurias. Before Valurias could do anything Max jumped in front of it to save her.

 

 

Magical Dog

 

Max slowly started to see. Everything was blurry at first then it started to focus. He noticed he was on Valurias’s bed, which had many red sheets. He noticed Valurias’s spellbooks were all on her desk. Max had no recollection of what happened. The last thing he remembered was he stole some meat from the market and some strange looking people. Then everything was all clear. Then he noticed Valurias standing by her desk reading a spell book. " Max, thank god your ok, you’ve been out for a couple weeks," she said touching her chest.

Max jumped off the bed. He totally forgot what happened and wanted to find out. He walked up to her and nudged her. " I bet you forgot what happened, I thought you were dead when Christopher used that dark magic on you," said Valurias patting Max on the head. Dark magic? Maybe those were the weird looking people. " Well I thought something was wrong so I went outside and I saw Christopher using dark magic on you, I fought him off then he tried using dark magic on me and you jumped in front of me and saved me," Valurias bent down and embraced Max. Then she kissed him on the forehead. " After that he and those other 2 vampires ran off and I have spent a couple weeks healing you and trying to make this special potion," she said petting Max again.

Valurias got up and she started reading again. Then she picked up an empty potion bottle and picked up a red glowing leaf from her shelf. She opened the bottle and put the leaf right over it. The leaf vanished and there was a blue potion in the bottle! Max was astonished. Then she picked up a yellow potion bottle and mixed it with the blue. The blue turned into a glowing green. Then Max heard her muttering " Need something of…eternal lei….ta… need Tyron Crystal." Valurias picked up a glowing crystal then she bent down and grabbed Max’s collar and took it off. Why was she doing that? Max thought. Then she dropped the collar in the potion and put the crystal above the potion bottle and muttered something. Then there was a bright orange light. The light then turned to green. It was coming from the potion bottle. Then the light turned red. There was a big flash and they were both temporarily blinded. There seemed to be nothing in the bottle. Valurias picked up the potion bottle, which looked perfectly normal to Max. Maybe he couldn’t tell because he was colorblind but he could tell what color something was.

Valurias walked over to Max’s water tray and dumped the entire potion in there. Then she put her hand over the water tray and the liquid inside of it was glowing then it stopped. Valurias turned to Max. "Drink from your water tray please," she said staring at Max not blinking. Max slowly walked up to it and sniffed the potion inside. Then he took a lick. Max felt a surge of energy at he saw small things differently. He looked down at his paw. It was golden. He had never seen this color this good before. "Keep drinking," said Valurias. Max figured the potion was to make him see colors. Valurias was a wonderful owner he thought. He took another drink and he saw the potion was actually light blue! Max decided he would drink all of it with his eyes closed and open them when he was done. He would sure be surprised. He closed his eyes and took another lick. Now the potion’s flavor was more defined. It actually tasted quite good. Then he took a big drink. He had a weird feeling in his throat and he felt much more intelligent. The next drinks he took he felt powerful surges of energy go through him. Valurias watched him eagerly. Max took the final drink and then he felt like he couldn’t think anymore.

He was sleepy. He felt really warm inside. He finally opened his eyes and noticed red, green, and blue light was circling him. This was the first time he saw these colors this well. Then they all flew into his mouth and he felt another surge of energy go through him. Then he fell asleep. He dropped down and Valurias bent down and rubbed his stomach. " Ok it’s been going good so far, I’ll just have to see when he wakes up," she said to herself very excitedly. She walked over to her bed and fell down onto it and fell asleep.

 

A couple hours later Max woke up. "Woah, that was neat," he said. Wait he thought. Did he just talk? Max tried to say some other things. "Talk," he said. He jumped up and down in the air. So he did talk. The potion made him see color and talk. He also felt stronger. He saw Valurias sleeping on her bed. Max jumped up onto her and started pushing. " Wake up, I can talk," he said excitedly. Valurias jumped up and hugged him. " You can also live forever," she said hugging him excitedly. "Live forever?" he asked. "Yes, you will, it was the only way I could keep you from dying since that dark magic was used on you," she said. " But can I die in anyway?" he asked. "Oh yes, you just can’t die of old age, disease, or something like that," she replied. Max licked her face. " Max you want to know why I’m doing this?" she asked, there was a tear in her left eye. " Why? Why are you crying?" he asked. " Well I had a strange feeling, Christopher isn’t going to be stopped easily, I had a message sent from me by the Seer himself," she explained. " He said that if I didn’t use this potion on you that the planet Earth would not have much future," she said petting Max’s head. " He also said something about this prophecy of the Chosen One’s," she explained. She stood up and looked out the window. " Something is undoubtfully going to happen that involves you," she said. " I thought you needed to be prepared," she finished.

 

 

The Last Night

 

Christopher walked in the streets of Sweet Water at night. He passed Valurias’s house. He knew it was her house but he went past. He was heading for the Sweet Water graveyard. Whenever a vampire drank another vampire’s blood the vampire drinking drained the other vampire’s power. He had a plan on how to do this.

He passed a fountain. He held out his hand and a black light went towards the fountain and went into it. The fountain’s water turned to the color black. He made it so if anybody drank from the fountain they would suffer instant death. Then their energy would be transferred to him. He had a feeling not many people would drink from it since the water was black but some dumb fool would drink from it some time.

Then he went by The Fountain of the Gods. This was the fountain he came to Sweet Water 5 years ago. The night he became the vampire master. He decided he would drink from it. He kneeled down and took a drink from the fountains water. He felt a burning in his throat and he screamed in pain. Then his skin started turning red. He held out both his hands and he was surrounded by black light. Then the pain stopped and his skin turned back to pale, almost white. The reason he couldn’t drink from the fountain was because he was an unholy creature. Only those who supported the gods and not the devil and evil could drink from it. The enraged Christopher pointed his hand at the fountain and then the water started turning black and a white light hit him. It came from the fountain. The white light passed through him while he was screaming in severe pain. It hurt more then he knew could hurt. The fountain’s color was still pure glowing blue as it was before. He changed his mind and walked past the fountain. It was time to get to business.

Christopher approached the graveyard gates. There was a cross on it. Christopher held out his hand and black light went around the cross. The cross then blew off and it fell to the ground. Christopher opened the gates and walked through. Then he held out both his hands. " Come to me, come to your master," he said in an echo like voice. Then hands came out of the ground. Pieces of the skin were even missing. Some hands you could see the bone on. Then another hand came out it was all bone! It was a horrid sight. The wind blew Christopher’s cloak upwards. That was odd Christopher thought. The wind was going up. Then a bolt of lightning hit him. Christopher fell to the ground. His entire body was burned.

He looked behind him and he saw Valurias. He pulled out his sword and held it up towards the sky. He was surrounded by black light and was healed. " Stupid sorceress, you can not defeat me," he said in a sinister voice. He then laughed a sinister laugh. " Shut up," said Max who was behind Valurias. " Huh? The dog talks," he said to himself. Then he jumped back. Some people had already dug themselves from their grave. He swung his sword with the black glowing blade and then the people fell lifeless again. Then a black light went through him. "Hahaha, I am becoming more powerful by the moment," Christopher slowly started to walk towards Valurias.

Valurias held up her staff and swung it and a white light appeared and hit Christopher. He was blown back. All the remaining people had dug themselves up. Some of them were all skeleton. Some had pieces of flesh missing. Some were all blood stained and half-eaten. Max felt his insides twisting. Valurias felt like throwing up. Christopher swung his sword again and their bodies disappeared and their power went into his.

Then the next thing happened very fast. Christopher flew up into his sky, his sword pointing downwards. He flew down towards Valurias and the sword went through her heart. Max didn’t know what to think. Valurias made one dying word "Max" she barely managed to say before her eyes fell shut. Those precious eyes that would never open again. Christopher pulled the blade out. Valurias’s lifeless body fell to the ground. Max run up to her then started nudging her. Then he put both paws over her face and looked at her lifeless face. Then her body disappeared and Max’s paws went to the ground. " Where did she go?" asked Max sorrow and hatred in his eyes. " She has gone to a place far worse then here, imprisoned forever," said Christopher with a sinister smile. " Shut up," said Max looking at Christopher with utmost hatred. " She will never laugh, smile, or be happy again," he said a tear dropping to the ground. Then Christopher flew up and disappeared with a black flash of light. Max howled during the entire night.

 

*Authors Note: This is Part 1 of Before The Chosen. Prequel of The Chosen One’s: The Firebird. From now on I will refer to Christopher as The Master. Max will have a different personality. More stuff is going to happen to Max. Will he be able to defeat The Master before he becomes too powerful?

 

 

Fates

 

Max saw wheels rolling on some weird metal contraption. There was smoke coming out of some pipes. He could also see people through the windows. They were all dressed in weird clothing. Then he noticed a man opening a window. He had a brown coat. He also had brown hair and blue eyes and he was fairly tall. He threw a body out the window of another man who had blood all over his body. He heard the man with the brown coat say " Goodbye Tyler".

Then there was darkness and he saw a lady in front of him. Then he noticed a dog that looked just like him! Maybe he was seeing the future. She patted the dog’s head and said, " Max, you are a good dog,". So it was the future!

There was darkness again and he saw the man with the brown coat with the lady he just saw who had a pink dress. They were in a hallway. There was another man standing in front of them. Max recognized the man. It was Stephen! He hard him say something about "People like you," Then he tried to jump on them but the other people starting running. Max hoped they would get a way. They went into the room Max saw before and they jumped out the window with the future version of him. So he would be seeing Stephen in the future.

There was darkness again and the man, the lady, and the future version of him were in a big fancy room. He thought it was made for a king! They were talking to each other about the firebird, The Master (Max shuddered when he heard them bring it up so did the future Max), and something about The Chosen One’s. He found out the man’s name was Robert and the woman’s name was Anne.

He saw darkness again and they were standing in front of a castle. Max noticed the future him had wings. Well the future is weird for me he thought. He noticed Anne wave her staff and the castle doors opened. Robert had a sword with a golden handle and a blue glowing blade. There was also another man, Kevin, who had a longer sword.

 

Max woke up. He was on top of the hill. It had been a year since Valurias had died. He still missed her. Evidently the Master was still alive in his future. It must have been the far future he thought.

Then he heard somebody calling him. It was coming from the top of the hill in the distance. Max felt like he was being summoned by the voice and started walking towards the hill. He didn’t feel like himself. Somebody or something was controlling him. He had a feeling this someone or something was good however. He started running towards the hill as fast as his legs would take him. He stopped at the base of it and realized it was too steep to go up. Then he felt like he was being lifted off the ground. He was floating and he stopped at the top of the hill. He ran towards the house and nudged the door.

The door opened but there was nobody there to open it. Then he heard a voice. A lady all dressed in red appeared. She seemed to come out of no where. " Welcome Max," she said in a soft voice. " How do you know my name?" he asked. " I am the Seer, I know everything except for the fate of the world," she said and sat down and crossed her legs. " Where you the one that made me see those visions?" he asked. " Those are one of two fates," she said waving her hands there was a gold light then.

The gold light almost blinded Max and when he looked he saw a horrible sight. There was fire every where. He heard a sinister laugh and he saw The Master. Then the ground starting shaking and there was a big explosion. Then Max saw nothing and heard nothing.

Then there was another gold flash of light and he was back. " This is the other fate of the world," she said with a slight spell of a tremble. " So if the Master isn’t stopped there will be nothing," Max said. " Exactly," said the Seer. " How can he be stopped?" Max asked. " He must be sent to the underground," the Seer said in an unusually tranquil voice. " How?" Max asked. The Seer’s eyes turned and she said in a voice that wasn’t her own, " Blood from the evil one in the middle of the diamond of crosses, and a sacrifice from the good will send the evil of the Vampire Master to the underground". The Seer’s eyes went back to normal and she collapsed. Max started nudging her but she wouldn’t wake up.

"A sacrifice from the good, blood from the evil, diamond of crosses?" Max asked himself.

 

 

The Ritual

 

The Seer laid down the 4th cross. It was the final cross to complete the diamond of crosses, which had 4 points.

 

Max dropped a golden bracelet Valurias use to wear in the middle of the diamond of crosses. They were in the middle of the cemetery. " All we need now is blood from The Master, once one drop of blood touches the ground between these crosses he should be sent to the underground," the Seer said. " How exactly are we going to get the blood, there is no way I’m going to bite him for it," said Max sarcastically. " I already have blood from him," said the Seer. "What? How did you get it," Max asked curiously. " You see when Valurias was killed the Master was bleeding and a drop of his blood hit Valurias and it mixed with her blood and I did get a blood sample," the Seer said. She held out both her arms and a bottle appeared with blood in it. " All we have to do is pour this onto the ground," said the Seer opening the bottle.

 

Black clouds then sped across the sky covering the sun. " Quick, drop it!" Max said urgently. She started to tilt the bottle but there was a black flash of light and the Seer was blown back. She managed to get the lid on though so no blood came out. Then the Master walked forth. He held out his hand and an invisible force also threw Max back. " Hahaha, trying to destroy me, well you will be having problems, won’t you?," he asked in an evil way.

Max then noticed his sword with the black blade. The sword that killed Valurias. He remembered the look on her face before she died. He remembered how he felt. He remembered the sword going through her.

Max felt a surge of energy go through him. He was surrounded by white light. The Master was blinded by it and couldn’t do a thing. Max ran towards him and the white light went through him. He was laying on the ground in severe agony. The Seer then dropped the potion bottle in the middle of the crosses. The glass shattered and then blood hit the ground.

The Master was surrounded by black light and he screamed. Max and the Seer couldn’t imagine the pain and agony he was feeling. Then black light came out of him and then there was fire in his eyes. He raised both his hands. They both had fire on them and pointed at Max. Fire started heading towards him. Max jumped a way and a tree nearby caught fire. Then the Master flew up in the air and there was a black flash of light. Max could only hear his screams. When the flash was gone the Master was gone.

" We did it," said Max. " I don’t know," said the Seer. " What do you mean?" asked Max. " We might of sent him to the underground but I fear he isn’t dead," said the Seer. She waved her hands and the tree that was on fire dissapeared. " Well we made quite a scene," said Max changing the subject. The Seer just stared off into space thinking.

 

 

The Good Fate Begins

 

Max was in the alley. He was running as fast as he could. The net almost got around his neck but the man behind him tripped. The man looked up at the golden retreiver he was chasing. When he looked at it he thought it was sticking its tongue out at him. Then the dog ran off. He really needed to get a new job he thought.

" The world has changed a lot ever since the Master is gone, my life is boring," Max said to himself. Then the man that saw him was staring at him with big eyes. " I really do need to get a new job," he said and ran off. Max sighed and started walking down the sidewalk. His life wasn’t exciting anymore. He had liked destroying the Master. He felt good knowing that the world wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t for him. If Valurias had never gave him that potion however….

Then he remembered the day he had those visions. The master was still alive somewhere. He remembered Robert, Anne, and Kevin. Robert and Anne were the Chosen One’s. Apparently they were going to destroy the master. He was going to be with them. He wondered when he would see them. Apparently Anne was his owner. He had a feeling it was going to be soon. Then he noticed her. She was walking down the sidewalk. There were 2 guys behind her with leather coats. Max then filled up with joy. He figured he had to follow them.

He stayed a distance a way but kept walking. Then he noticed Anne started to walk faster. So did the people behind her. She started running and they started running after her. Max thought they were after her and then ran up and bit one on the wrist. The man yelled and then jumped back. The other man started walking back saying, " Nice dog, nice doggy" then he ran away. He looked back and noticed Anne was on the ground and the other man was trying to take her purse. Max jumped on him and bit his arm and teared his coat. The man got up and ran away also. Max walked in front of Anne and licked her face. She was beautiful. She looked about 17. Anne looked at him and looked at his golden collar, which said Max on it. " You saved me, oh I bet your owner wants you back," she said. Max shook his head no to signify he had no owner. " Wow, you just shook your head no, do you not have owners?" she asked. Max shook his head yes. Anne was astonished. She stood up and patted his head.

 

A month later Anne and Max were sitting in their compartment in a train. The train Max saw in his vision. He noticed Robert walk past the door. So this was where it begun.
