my teacher secret-chapter 10

Episode 10

Previously….

Today was a holiday, so we decided to go to the amusement park. We left for the park at eight o'clock (8am) in other to get in line early for more tickets to board the rides. There we met up with Miss Mia by chance. Emily vomited on mikes clothes since she had skin milk before the ride. We wanted to call It a day afterwards, but Emily insisted on going to the haunted house. The haunted house had so wired poster hanging at its entrance, but we took it lightly. We enter into the house where everyone disappeared, leaving me in a maze. So here I am now searching for a way to get back to the rest.

After hours of searching, I couldn't pull through in finding them. What frustrated me out was I was more like stuck in the same place for over an hour now, moving around in circles.

I heard lord screams about three (3 m) meters away from me. I quickly rushed over, seeing Emily being drag away, but I don't know by whom or how. Just then, the old man appeared to me again.

What does the old dude want with me again? I told him he should get lost earlier.

Currently…

"Young lad, have you got any luck finding them." He asked with a smirk on his face while approaching closer to me."(Old man in blue coat)

"Anyway, I could help you out if you want me too, but as they say nothing comes free in this world of ours. Meaning you got to pay a price and am not talking about those pieces of papers you guys store in your pocket books (he means a wallet that's for you guys, who do not get what the old man in a blue coat is talking about) and hand it over to each other and claim it has value. What do you guys call it again…m-money I guess right, yep that's the name." He added. (Old man in a blue coat)

I asked what he wanted me to do to rescue Emily and the guys. He told me in order to do so require I take a journey to the other side, (the other side refers to the spirit world) and there I need to gain the price germ of the dragon. In that way he will be able to free himself from this curse place and I will get back my friends. I didn't want to go to a place I only read about in manga and seen on television shows, but I really got no choice after all, since I needed to save Emily and my friends. Also, I did not want what happened three years back to repeat and I would be blamed all over again, the emotional torture is so much to bear, so I agreed to do it.

"That's quite brave of you young lad in my time, no one was willing to do that for mortals. Do you even know what going to the spirit world (the other side) requires? It requires your soul to be separated from your physical body, meaning you die here, for only spirits can get into the land. Only a few people in this society will do that, even for mere mortals. So are you still going to go through with it."(Old man in a blue coat)

"Those mere mortals, you call them, are my friends, and I would do anything in my power for them. Even though sometimes we fall out and have little ups and downs, but that is what friendship is all about. .it is not like I got a choice now or later on. Even if I did, my mind is made up, and I am going to go through with it no matter what happens."(Cyrus)

"Very well young lad, you have been warned, but your mind is focus. I think you are the right person for the job. May the stars guide you and lead you unto the right path." the old man said. (Old man in a blue coat)

He prepared a portal, which took about ten minutes (10 minutes) to do so, that would transport me to the other side(the spirit world)...

I got to the spirit land a lit bit dizzy and surprised too.it was fast trip there to, felt like I jumped through time or something of such phenomenal. The other side wasn't really like how I imagined it to be. Instead of it being ancient with a lot of grave hard and stuff like that, it looks more like the real world .they even had technology which I found out later on was power by spirit force and was more advance than any type of we had back at home.

Nb: spirit force, a force which everything in the spirit world possess.it was kind of a life essence of the spirit world. Just like mage (magic) for some divine creatures and also witches and wizards possess.

After a long time of exploring, the spirit world, and the city; I pass by and through more than a dozen streets. I came upon a club, it had a banner-up at its entrance. It read out;

"Welcome to the second-biggest club in the spirit world. Only second to "dragons' castle", we got anything and can find anything that you ever wanted. Strangers, family, neighbors and friends just step in and all your desires shall be filled. Tell us your greatest desire"

Where would be the perfect place to gain so much information without a club? I headed into collect information about the dragon. As I entered, I asked myself again, "Where else would be the perfect place to do so instead of a club, I asked myself."

I walked up to the counter, order a drink to get on a good side before asking the counter about Mr. Dragon. He said he did not know anyone called Mr. Dragon, so did the rest of the customers I asked. It seemed everyone there was in fright after just hearing that name out of my mouth. It made me wonder what type of person this Mr. Dragon could possibly, to have no information on him at the biggest club in the city. A while later, just when I was about to give up on my search, a man walked up to me and offered me a drink.

"I heard you were looking for the one eye devil." He said, placing a cup of wine on the table.

"You mean the dragon?" , I asked cause everyone one was just reluctant to share any information, "if so ... Yes a-and thanks for the drink –err your name…"

"You do not need to know my name for now, but if you want to find him you will have to go on to the far end of the land on the twelfth night of the full m-o-on at dawn ;there a path will open which will lead you straight to him." He said in a mysterious voice. "Why are you talking in such a tone, it is not like you are trying to scare me or something?"

"Oh, sorry about that, something seems to be stuck in the voice box, can you give me a second to clear it up? "He asked. He pattered his chest with three light blows and cleared his throat up. "That feels better", he said, "well us I was saying a path would open up on the twelfth night of the full moon, just follow that path, and it would lead you to Mr.…dragon"

The twelfth night of the full moon turns out to be the last day of the month, which was a few days away. Since it was that far off, and I did not know what to do in the meantime, the man invite me to stay with him for some days, since I was a stranger here, and he will take me on a tour through their town the following and get some equipment for the road.

A week later…

Today is the twelfth night of the full moon, so I have to hit the road then. Mister bunny decided to be my guide to mister dragon's palace too, so I was relived because I did not have to worry about getting lost.

(Mister Bunny is the man who showed our main character where he could find Mr. Dragon a week ago).

We made it to the outskirt of town which had two paths.it was really creepy there, it was not as lively as the town was. If I had happened to drop out here from the portal, I would probably have lost all hope, sense of direction and probably end up dead by now. We had to go down the path with a thick fog in order to get to dragon's palace, which would have been a difficult task if we did not have a star germ…. The star germ lead as from the outskirt of town to our next destination. (The star germ is kind of a compass back at home.it is used to show directions and coordinates and come be used as a communication tool and has other great features). Which had a more pleasant scene, but not everything that glitters is gold.

In there we heard loud screams of people; mister bunny said they were people, who were being devoured by a spirit beast. This was wired because it was the time period of their hibernation. He added that from the tracks left behind on the ground, The spirit beast would be very large; about fifteen (15) feet high up from the ground level and would be as furious well.it would also have brutal strengthen and thick skin, and it usually requires to be knocked out by a rainbow spear which we did not have.

Also, mister bunny could not tell why it was out here, since it was the period of hibernation for the spirit beast. I did not bother much about all that mister bunny was saying, since I wanted to save the people. We had only one option to save her, which was to drive out the natural enemy of the spirit beast.it was a death and life, task, but we were able to pull it off. After the end of the successful rescue, it turned out a little girl was the only survival left. The others died in the fight .we found her hiding behind a pile of rocks, which was hard to reach by the spirit beast. She decided to tag along with us for the rest of the journey after saving her, since she did not know how to get around the forest and also did not have anywhere to go. Apparently she was lost out here, but the reason why she and her people came all the way out here for, I asked but to no avail.

We took a short break after walking a few 30 miles and continued on our journey to dragons' palace along with our new little friend. We met up with our last obstacle called the land of maze.

As the same suggest, this place was just a maze but not like any we have ever seen .it stretch for about twenty-five (25) kilometres apart having a total surface area of about 625 miles and will take at least five (5) days to get over it and all its traps with a map, But i did not have all the time in the world to wait around for the map to show up. I tied a robe around my waist, then two the others .our little friend was placed right in between mister Bunny and i to ensure she did not get lost in the maze. I tied the rope around us to prevent us from getting separated on our way through the maze even, if that was going to be dangerous. After two days and half, we made it out of the maze and Mr. Dragon castle was just a few meters up ahead.

Star germ: a crystal that enmities positive energy and can be used to seek direction.
