McKenzies story

When I was brought to my parents with my sister, there appeared a doorway to another realm as my father said. So, from then on, my father told us about this door, and how my sister and I will have to protect and guard it. Then my sister and I read a page, and, on the page, there was a spell and she said: “This spell, it is for sealing but I have never seen anything like this in any of my classes.” 

“So can we perform it, or will we need help?” asked McKenzie. Then they rushed through the books on sealing magic and found the one that they had but it was on the level of a professor, and it took four people to cast. Then they looked back on the page on the gate and found that it is showing what the gardens were used for and how in the olden days the gardens were searchers for ones they called the special and how the special has powers or instincts on how to use magic or to deal with a dragon and fight like a warrior. 

So, they traveled to the home of their cousins and chose to try to convince them to help because they knew that the spell would take the four of them, especially Elija. So, they tried to knock on the door of the cousin’s home with no answer so they knocked a second time and still no answer, so they began to walk home then they remembered that they were on a vacation with their parents and would not be back for another couple of days. 

So, as they returned home the sisters were wondering what was on the other side of the gate and went to the school library the next day after a good night’s rest. Then, once arriving at the school’s library, they found that there were books that they went to look at the books they had at the library, and they found books on sealing and other magic spells and the casting of spells. Books on riding dragons and breeding dragons, strategic battles, and how to properly stand when fighting. Then there were books on demons and dragons yet none of that really interested them and so they chose to skip over that section of books entirely even though it was massive then questioned McKenzie. 

“Why are there so many books on demons and dragons?”  

“It is because it is most important to know what our greatest enemy weaknesses and strengths are so we can use that, for example, take a lightning dragon, for example, one of its strengths is using electricity to its advantage and for us, that means that we and uses warrior to fight it because of their metal armor and their weapons that are made of metal. Which would give it the greater advantage and help it defeat us.” loudly said the grandmaster of the school.  

“So that is why we have such a large section of books dedicated to demons and dragons!” responded the grandmaster and with that the girls responded to him at the same time with “We know grandmaster you have told us this a thousand times and with that you only have us take the class are first year here and so we think that if you think that it is that important then why do we only have to take it once?” Then he walked back to his office with a puzzled look on his face. Then they started to read all the books one each and one at a time, so as the sisters were reading, they finally got to all the magic books that told them how to strengthen their magic powers. Then they found one book on the basics of sealing spells and found that there were spells that require more than one person. Even if you strengthen your magic, it still needs to be the required amount of people to cast and for breaking the seal you must be more powerful than the one who cast it. Then the sisters knew who cast the spell and it was the grandmaster, so they took the test on how strong their magic was and found that they combined had a power level in the magic of only ninety then they went to the grandmaster and asked him what his magic level was, and he proudly said, “I have a magic level of two hundred and twenty-five!” said the headmaster. So, after that, the sisters waited for their cousins to return from their vacation with their parents to have them take the test and once they returned with their scores in hand the sisters told them to show them their score for magic. They were shocked with the results Elija scored one hundred and ten on his magic whale. His brother scored a thirty which in total added up to two hundred and thirty which was ten points more than the headmasters which meant that they could break the seal. Then the sisters said that they needed to meet at the gate. Tomorrow night, and so they did and once they arrived the girls began to explain what was going on “One day I found myself reading through some of our father’s old books and found one that had this gate in it and how it is a doorway to another realm, and it had this spell to open and close the door with a seal and we are here to reopen the door.” said McKenzie to her cousins. Then Nicole had shown them the spell to chant, and they all memorized it so then they began to chant, the door slowly started to open, and it looked like it was a swirling array of color with blues and red throughout it and then McKenzie and looked through the gateway and saw nothing then stuck her head in.  

“What do you see?” questioned Nicole. 

“What do you think is on the other side?” whispered Elija. 

“I think that it will be a world like ours and look like ours just different people,” said Nicole in a sarcastic voice. 

“I think it will be a world full of warriors and barbarians!” hollered Alfredo  

“That is all you ever look for, that is why you had McKenzie take you through the realm of dragons!” said Nicole in an angry tone. 

“WOW, the other side is so bright, colorful, and beautiful!” said McKenzie as she pulled her head back from the gate. Then as she started to explain what she saw on the other side of the portal they started to bombard her with questions, and so when she answered all their questions, they went through the portal into the other realm to find the first special one to bring through the gate onto their side and for them to learn how to control their powers. 

 

And that is the end of her story, but they helped me settle here in this new world. Then McKenzie’s response to me was “all your questions will be answered in time.,” So in this new world, I will continue my existence.
