Dear Reader,
I really hope you enjoyed this 42-chapter story that spun for over three months on Goodnovel and sadly but gloriously it has come to an end. An end that I believe I delivered quite well, having penned the final words of this story. The idea to develop it actually began way back in 2017 when I was still in high school and I'm finally glad to have been able to craft it much to everybody's liking. I really do hope it coined a spot in your libraries and with all that said, don't forget to drop a comment, a vote and also share this story to your fellow readers.
Thank you.

"L A D I E S A N D G E N T L E M E N of North Atlanta High," came the voice of Principal Donovan just as students began to fill into the compound, followed by their parents, "if we could all just settle down now." It was the early days of Summer in the year 2030, with the hot glowing sun already shining down over the school. "It's graduation, bitches!" Carmen cried out, dressed in a purple cloak with the graduation hat over her head, obscuring her face from the sun's heat. "We're just ending a school year. I don't see what all the fuss is about," came Henry, also in his graduation attire. They were all graduating as their high school years came to an end on that fine day. "Speak for yourself!" blurted Marcus. "Hey, Cassie," Lucas spoke, taking off his hat, "where's Nat?" "She said she would b
T H E R E W E R E M U F F L E D sounds coming from a living room. It was a large plasma TV where an action film was playing.A large banging sound then followed after gunfire went off from the film playing which was loud enough to awaken the boy who had dozed off on the couch that was six feet away from the TV.Marcus's brown eyes suddenly opened wide, his whole body shaking when he turned to see The Terminator playing on TV.'I'll be back!. . .'He traced the couch for the remote and found it just in time to watch Arnold Schwarzenegger deliver his famous catch phrase. He then switched off the TV.The living room was dark and Marcus turned around to get a view from the large windows where he noticed night time was creeping in.That's odd.There was no green sky outside but dark greying clouds.Marcus
T H E R E E L I N G O F vehicle tires awoke the young dark haired girl who had fallen asleep with her head leaning towards the glass of a window.Her right temple softly thudded against the glass before she pulled back and opened her eyes to see a black Ferrari drift by along the road.Turning away from the window, the girl looked over to her left where an old woman was sleeping, her head tilted back.She was on a bus.Her mind was in the middle of trying to make out whether she had just been dreaming about an event that had happened at school where she and her friends had been celebrating a graduation party.Almost instantly, a new thought quickly took over, which was very characteristic of her thanks to her unique high sense of perception.Where exactly am I going?She did not wait long for the answer when the bus came
W H A T D O E S I T really mean to be smart?He heard those words play in his mind like a tape as he took in a deep breath.It was almost getting to the brink of being meditative when someone bumped into him from behind his shoulder, ruining his self-reflective moment."Watch it, simpleton!" Henry Roderick cussed but the kid responsible rushed off, having not heard him.He watched him run off to join a group of other kids who were dressed in maroon blazers and it was the sight of that that made Henry stop dead in his tracks."What happened to graduation?"He turned around, trying to locate anyone in a dark robe and a graduation hat.No one.No grads to be seen except for people in their normal attire as if it was just another normal school day."Henry, there you
H E R P E N M A D E tiny squeaky noises as it poured ink onto the white paper surface, jotting down the words that materialized in her mind.The pen then abruptly slid, creating a long line of ink across the paper and messing up her work after a bottle of alcohol was set heavily on the table next to her.Frowning, she set the pen down and shook her head in frustration just as a man standing on the other side of the table came to stand in front of her."You alright over there?" the man asked and the girl then noticed for the first time how prominent and yet youthful his features were.He was tall with thick dark hair that matched his eyes and had a trim beard.She watched him pick up a glass and wipe it clean with a cloth and the surface of the glass gleamed under the light bulb set over the shelves stacked with bottles of beer.Cassie Richar
L O U D R Y H T H M I C D R U M M I N G sounds filled the vicinity and the people inside the dark compartment began to act up, feeling the strong psychic vibe fuelling their athletic bodies.The drumming intensified, almost sounding like ancient war themed music, encouraging warriors to battle.Which was actually what it was. They were the Warriors Football Team.The tall and lean quarterback with short dark hair finally opened his eyes that had been closed in the dark compartment as light began to pour inside, illuminating the black and white jerseys of the world's greatest football team.Lucas King put on his helmet and proceeded to march out from the compartment and onto the field with the rest of his teammates.The field was unlike anything he'd ever seen. It was a lush green overrun with white thin stripes and numbers, marking the end zones and the scrimmag
"N A T A S H A, D O N'T !" L U C A S cried out when she finally let go and lashed out at the figure, her fingers folded into a fist that was arced with sparks of lightning. Natasha's fist never connected as she ended up hitting nothing just as a wave of bright green light burst out and blinded her along with Lucas, Cassie, Carmen, Marcus and Henry. . . The bright light intensified, warping her mind into disarray, the last sound she heard being that of Lucas warning her. The light then began to die down until Natasha could finally see. But not what she had been expecting to see. The mysterious cloaked figure that descended from the sky and cast out that wave of green energy had disappeared. Natasha spun around. She was by herself . Her so friends, her mother and everyone else were nowhere in sight. "Lucas!" she called out.
