Chapter 2:- The Fall
“Meow! Meow!” cried a sound from somewhere dragging me out of my slumber.
“Since when did we have a cat in the house?” I asked myself. I took a peek at the alarm clock, its 8 o’clock at night.
“Meow! Meow!” was the sound again. I scan the room but didn’t find any sign of a cat, just like in school today. There’s the “mew” but no cat in sight.
Putting on my shoes I walked out of my room and went down stair wanting to locate the source of the sound. I search through every room in the house including the basement and when I couldn’t find the source in the house I went outside to look for it.
I looked through every corner in our front yard but still no sign of a cat. Without giving up I went to check out the back yard. And there she was sitting on the grass gazing up at me as I walk out the back door. The cat’s form was a bit blurry but defiantly is the same cat from this morning.
I was about to take a step forward, but noticed I couldn’t move my legs at all. No matter how I try to move them, they wouldn’t budge. Glancing down I discover the grassy ground my feet were on, was replaced by an gold-orange glowing circle with a six pointed star right in the middle and writing of some kind of language inside and out.
I start to get nervous, “OH MY GOSH! What the heck is happening here?” Either this is a dream or I’m just hallucinating.
“Meooww” I turn my attention back to the cat who was now approaching me. Her fur was much more orange than the time I look away from her. The closer she approaches me the clearer her form is, her fur are still the same color though it more brighter and frizzier like it’s on fire.
“WAIT THE CAT IS ON FIRE!” I shouted. She’s been enveloped by fire, or rather it’s the fire that’s in the form of a cat. Now I’m pretty sure this is a dream, and I’ll wake up any seconds now. But no matter how much I try waking up by blinking my eyes the scene in front of me wouldn’t disappear.
“Meowww” cried the feline again. I didn’t have the time to react when she took a big leap right into me. I mean right into my body. The force of the crush was too strong that I went falling back.
My back didn’t hit the ground, somehow the soil ground my feet were on suddenly vanished and now I’m falling down through a black hole.
“AHHHHH” I screamed as loud as my lung allow, hoping someone will came to my rescue. The night sky I was just standing under quickly vanished above me.
It’s been 20 second since the fall and I haven’t land on anything solid and my throat’s so dry that I stopped screaming. Just when I thought I was going to be falling forever, a white light emerge from below me. That must be the exit, I convinced myself, which give me some hope on getting out of this black hole.
Before I had the time to prepare for what is beyond that light, I was falling through it. My throat is still dry to make any scream. I felt my back landed hard on something soft and solid like the grass in the backyard. I must have land on a grass field, I thought, good thing is not a rock field.
I can see two figure above me on is taller and the other. But because of how hard my head hit the ground my eye sight was all fuzzed up, so all I see are two shadows the short one is on my right and the tall one is on my left. I can also hear voices of people talking from somewhere nearby.
“A human!” called someone. “He summoned a human to be his familiar?”
“Well just leave it to Mr. Mistake to get the spell wrong.” Said a girly voice.
“But she’s kind of pretty.” Said a voice that closest to me.
I was so confused by what is going on right now. Where am I? Who are you people? I wanted to ask, but I couldn’t get any sound through my dry mouth.
“Mrs. Eva, I must have made a mistake let me try again” said a voice from my right, it must be the short figure that’s talking.
“No, Mr. Alaxy I’m sorry but each wizard can only have one chance. And it looks like your familiar is going to be this girl” said the tall shadow who must be Mrs. Eva.
“But-” he began to said, but my head wouldn’t let me stay awake another second. I black out before he finished his sentence.
