Chapter 1

The Beginning

For 50 years now, the gorms fiercely tormented the human race. Half of the planet moved inland, most of the rest died and few stayed I was one of those few. I was boating off Florida when I felt a bump. I went flying and landed on an island I looked back at the boat and a gorm was theyre swimming away.

My boat was sinking. Good, it didnt see me. I said.

Good thing its low tide I would have splashed and I would have been dead by now.

Gorms have extremely poor eyesight but excellent hearing.

I could have swum back but as I was close to shore but it was too risky because there were to many gorms.

So I cut down a tree and made some planks of wood and made a small raft and I took a spear-like piece of wood and set of to shore, so I set off to home, and an eerie shroud of mist surrounded me

Chapter 2

Hells Island

Six hours later

            I wonder if Im even moving I sighed.

The shroud of mist disappeared and I saw a huge island it was Australia.

My raft was sinking so I jumped off and swam so shore.

Oh great Hells Island I moaned.

The trees were on fire and so were the Gorms. In fact they were made of fire. I decided to climb a mountain to see the view maybe even find an abandoned ship or something so a stream so I would not catch on fire. A person that was on fire popped out from the bushes and showed me a stone that was on fire but the fire was silver. He stepped closer to me and said,  Youll know what to do when the time comes as he handed me the stone, he turned into ashes and blew away then burned up.

I climbed up the mountain and while I was thinking about the guy at the bottom of the mountain, when I heard rumbling I looked up and a fireball was rushing for me I held out the stone pure out of reflex and then the fireball went right through me, I was scared to death

Chapter 3

The first fight

When I opened my eyes in front of me was the top of a volcano, I felt a rumble under me, then the lava was shaking and waving, then the lava rose, then a Gorm who was on fire, burst out of the lava. Well, well an intruder! it said quietly.

Then it snapped at me I jumped at it and I slashed it with my spear-like stick, it jumped in pain, I slashed it again and it flung me off, I was hanging on my stick I opened my eyes and the stick was in its eye, we stood there, both frozen in fear and surprised with my power. I jumped off it sunk dying in pain and agony.

Chapter 4

Mind and Anger

          I stared in amazement, a red coin appeared I took it and there was a dragon incrusted on both sides, a green light surrounded the island, and all plant life appeared, the stream was now a river and all was good, I walked down to the river

and washed my face, I took a drink, and looked to my side the was a red squirrel

I am a coin animal 1 of 3 I am the Fire Elementdo I get a name? I said with curiosity. Umm I stared at it I umm...I didnt know animals could talk

they do now. she said

Oh okayFlash your name is Flash!

Great, now lets go she said

Were we have no boat. I exclaimed.

She pointed at a boat, I climbed on, and we drove to the closest island.

When we got off a Gorm was there to greet us, we ran for our lives right into a tree, it grabbed us, the gorm was all to ready to be there because he was there before we were, he was right behind the tree.

What are you telepathic?!? said Flash.

Why yes I am said the Gorm.

It was completely made of vines and leaves, with berries for eyes or I think so.

Just then Flash burst on fire and so did the tree, the Gorm bite at Flash,

I felt the anger and started transforming, I shot a fireball at the Gorm and I jumped on its back, I grabbed Flash, as we rode the angry beast to a clearing.

The anger made me strong, as I shot 20 fireballs up and 30 at the Gorm the 20 fireballs fell as the 10 of the 30 were still hitting him, I grabbed the dragon coin and spit on the ashes of the beastly Gorm.

Chapter 5

Ice races

       We walked the shore and found a great beaver, it was huge my green dragon coin disappeared and I made a statement Your name will me Archie okay? I said loudly so it could hear me.

Yes and you dont have to yell Archie answered. Hop on!

You sure? said Flash

If I werent sure I wouldnt of asked you would I? said Archie

I laughed as I got on with Flash.

We got to a cold island we hoped off and Archie got on the snow.

Its cold here. said Archie said.

Ya.. I answered.

We headed up the mountain when a Gorm made of ice came out.

I challenge you to a race human!

I accept. I said.

First to the bottom wins, if you win you get to face me in a fight, if I win you must leave this island!!! it boomed.

Okay! Then be ready to fight! I said proudly

Ready Archie? I said

Ready he answered

I herd a snowman say ReadySet...GO!

But the Gorm was off by Set, so I leaned forward to go faster on the hill, I almost hit a tree but just missed we raced as face as we could so we could catch up, and we did, the Gorm through an ice chunk at us, we raced ahead.

We passed a flag and won.

Okay Gorm let fight! I challenged.

Chapter 6

Flash and Archie fight back

I jumped up and shot a fireball at the Evil Ice Gorm, but it did nothing I tried a sunball but that didnt work, the Gorm  hit me and I went flying I tried to get up but I couldnt,  I saw flash on the Gorms head and she ripped its eyes out, and Archie tackled it down the Gorm cried out loud when Archie bit him, a coin appeared with an icy blue bird, it flew over to me and I touched it, I was then healed I got up Your name is not mine to choose Archie, Flash will you do the honors?

They huddled together and said Faith together.

I nodded, and looked at the bird it smiled lets go I said.

Chapter 7

Follow the current

We talked about what we should do now, since we have everyone together now maybe it was over, but then the water turned purple and yellow we followed it to a whirlpool with a black hole in it, we heard a voice, Jump into the last battle.

The voice kept repeating and got louder and angrier than the last.

So I jumped in, as did Archie, Faith, and Flash.

We fell down a tube, the sides were swirling yellow and purple, and we landed on a pile on dead fish that were probably sucked into the whirlpool.

We entered a door and into an opening with three halls with locked doors and circles in the middle, in the middle of the room was the three dragon coins, I picked them up and put them in the slots the doors opened and behind them was a Fire Gorm, an Ice Gorm, and an Amazon Gorm.

Chapter 8

Beasts from the past

We attacked the Fire Gorm because it was the weakest, while Archie took the other two Gorms, we were having a hard time but it will be worth it when the world is safe because of us, but it wont be at this rate they gathered in the corner and melded into the biggest ugliest thing in the world, a fire vine beast with so ice here and therewe were finished

Chapter 9

The last battle

We banded together and maybe we could beat this thing, and then a golden dragon coin appeared in front of us, then all of a sudden Flash, Archie and Faith formed a golden fiery dragon, I was the soul of the dragon, inside the depths of the fighter, I was in control, I shot a golden fireball at the beast, it flinched, so I shot another the evil beast morphed into a dark black dragon from the bottom of hell, I shot a beam of hot golden light at I, as the black dragon shot a dark flow of black shadow.

In between the power streams was a green light, the same green light on Hells IslandI must put more effort in to this! I thought, I must free the world!.

I tilted the golden dragons head back and pushed his arms forward.

Then I pushed as hard as I could.

And then a flash of white light blinded me as I defeated the dark dragon and sent it back to Hell.

Chapter 10

Tears of a warrior

I found myself in a field with Flash, Archie and Faith.

I stood up and looked at them, okay guys lets find a way home I said eagerly were going to have so much fun together were going to swim, eat, play, have parties and- umm guys?

I poked Flash he didnt move I checked pulse but none turned out, I stood there shocked, paralyzed, scarred for life, after all I was only 15 years old, I just stood there crying until I got thirsty and went for water at a fountain nearby, when I looked back I only saw the open field, they had gone to heaven, and there was nothing I could do.
