Magical Heist

It is a universally known truth that if you

do something criminal, you must be punished

by being sent to prison. Well, Matthew Holmes

didn’t exactly do anything criminal but was

involved in a robbery. Matthew and his friend

were both involved in the crime. Last night

Matthew was arrested and kept in custody all

night. But something strange was happening in

the prison building. First, there was some fog,

and then darkness engulfed the prison building.

There was also weird wolf howling sounds. The

policemen and workers assumed it was just the

animal in the forest nearby since the prison was

situated in a deserted forest. The next morning

the policemen dragged Matthew to a room. The

room was full of dark shaded windows and was

spotless with a chair waiting for him to sit down

on it. He sat down and drank some water from a

glass cup. While he was drinking a policeman

arrived. The policeman grabbed the glass cup

and threw it to the floor. The cup shattered into

pieces with a loud noise. The policeman sat

down and observed the inmate teenager.

”Do you know what we are going to do with

you, chap?” asked the policeman with a

demanding tone.

”I don’t know…” answered Matthew doubtfully.

”Well, listen to me...” said the policeman with a

serious gesture, “We are going to kill you”

”But…But you can’t though, I thought you were

not allowed to kill prisoners”, stammered

Matthew.

”But were are going to. Sorry pal, it’s your

unlucky day. I am going to enjoy this. Haven’t

had these for years…” said the policeman with

a wicked smile on his face.

Afraid of death, Matthew went to bed.

He had a dream of him getting hanged but

suddenly all the things changed and the police

weren’t there and the prison wasn’t there and

he was in a green forest. He hoped that it wasn’t

just a dream and would happen in real life as

well.

The next morning he was dragged to a room

and he saw one thing hanging in the centre on

the room, and it was a looped rope. He was

asked to put the loop around his neck. Just as

he was about to put it around his neck, a dark

object swivelled around the room and hit the

police guard with a thud! Matthew stood there

mesmerised. Matthew knew what was going to

happen next. He closed his eyes and the next thing

he saw was a forest.

He was tired but wanted to know what the black

thing was and why it saved him. He wandered

several miles and at last found a hut. He

knocked on the door lightly, the door creaked

open and a polite voice said:” Come in

Matthew”. He slowly walked in wondering how it

knew his name.

”Hello Matthew, I know it seems weird talking to

a noise coming from nowhere but you need to

know this, I AM A LIVING PERSON. This is just

a voicolagram that we use to contact other

people in our society.”

”But who are you? , I don’t know you how

come you know I am arrested and am about to

get hanged? ”

”Well I belong to an organisation called

Aramedis. This organisation is for special

teenage kids who have special powers and you

are a member as well. Ho-”.

”How am I in it ?? I never signed up.”

”You don’t have to sign up for it, you have a

superpower did you know that and that is why

you are in the organisation. Well, let me continue

now. As I was saying, how I knew that you were

in trouble is because you were feeling scared

and I could sense it. You know the police that

almost killed you? It was not actually normal

police officers, they were demons cloaking their

true identity. I know you don’t believe it and you

feel like it is a fairy tale or something, but it’s

not.”

”I don’t know what to say, what superpower do

I have?”

”Yeah I thought you would ask, well you can

attract anything you want literally by thinking or

dreaming of it.”

”Really???, I would love to try that out...”

Since he was ravenous, he dreamt about having

some delicious food right in front of him. He smelt some

really lovely food and a delicious dessert. When

he opened his eyes, what he saw was

impossible to his eyes. In front of him were Belgian chocolate truffle, spaghetti, some Thai curry, Chicken soup, and all the tasty foods you can imagine. His eyes were filled with

delight. He carefully sat down and wolfed down

the lovely food.

”See I told you, you have a superpower. Now

you have to protect the world from the demo-

MATTHEW LOOK OUT!!!”

”What????”

Something hit him in the shins and he blacked

out…

************************************************************

He woke up and saw 3 people watching down

on him. He slowly rubbed his eyes and opened

his eyes.

They all looked tough and well trained.

”Oh, I’m extremely sorry; I thought you were an evil person or something listening to one of our

members of the organisation and stealing our

details. Well, welcome to our organisation. By

the way I am Kathy, she is Lucy and he is

David.” said Kathy.

”What am I meant to do now?? Wait for demons

to come by???” asked Matthew with doubtful

eyes.

”Well you are supposed to do the training first. We

will take you there and help you train with our

master, Zach.” answered David with cold eyes.

”Where is it? UK or US?” asked Matthew.

”You probably never have heard of it. The

the training centre is on a small island in Ricorta.”

answered Lucy

”When do we set off, tomorrow or next week?”

asked Matthew curiously.

The members of the organisation glared at each

other.

”Why are you glaring at each other? Did I ask

anything bad?” asked Matthew.

”Actually we are leaving now,” said David.
