Fantasy Fiction Science Fiction

Crystelle, Stellan, and I were going on a trip together as friends. My name is Kriss Sagitto and I am 17 years old. I live in Toronto, Canada. We are all the same age and we attend a school called Southeast High School. It is a very big school with lots of windows, the view is nice, and also there is a lot of development in the school. I like it there. Today is December 10th, 2035. We had a schedule of where to go. First, we were going to the Movie Theater, then the Dining Hall Restaurant, then the Library, then the Supermarket, and finally our favorite shop, Sprinkles. It’s a shop where you can get good accessories, good products and it’s also very fun.

“Okay, first, we will go to the Movie Theater,” said Stellan. “We are going to watch a movie called Pack of Wolves. It’s based on science fiction and comedy. Also, I heard it’s super cool. It’s about this family of wolves that live together and they do fun things with each other.

“That’s very cool,” I said. “I hope we can do it together.”

“Totally,” said Crystelle. “Also, there are a lot of teens in this movie.”

“Awesome, let’s go sit in the Middle Row,” said Stellan.

Before we entered, we got some popcorn, burger, french fries, milkshakes, coke, and any other delish foods.

“This movie is going to be awesome,” said Crystelle. “My sister told me wonderful reviews about this movie. She watched it and it totally rocked.

“Cool,” I said.

As the movie started, some people were super happy to finally get to watch the movie for the first time.

“I can’t wait,” someone said, with a hyper sound.

“Same,” someone else said.

The movie began playing and before we knew it, there was a big amount of light flashing on the screen.

“Cool,” said Stellan.

The movie was playing for around 3 hours and some people started using their phones just in case to check something

The movie started off with the acting of Little Red Riding Hood. She was trying to deliver some food to her Grandmother, but suddenly it was actually the wolf. The wolf tried to scare Little Red Riding Hood, but the as came and scared off the Wolf. The Wolf got scared and scampered away, and Red finally found her grandmother. In the next scene, it shows that the Wolf who tried to scare Red was actually a shapeshifter in the form of a human. As we saw him shapeshift he told us his story in the form of a song. Then all of a sudden, Red, the Dad, and the Grandmother used their hearing ability to hear his voice, ran to him, and also turned themselves into wolves. 

I was shocked.

“Soooooo cool,” said Stellan. She was tempted to bounce off her chair.

“Calm down,” I said. “I know it’s cool, but this is a movie theater.

“Okay.”

As time passed, the whole plot of the movie was that the wolves had to travel to meet other wolves and also experience new types of wolves. In the end, there was some romance and also the wolves had a relationship with other wolves and developed around them.

“So cool,” said Crystelle. “Imagine if I was a wolf, I could be super cool.”

“Yeah, totally,” said Stellan.

The movie was already finished, and as people began to get up and leave, I read the travel guide to where we are going next.

“We are going to the Dining Hall Restaurant,” I said.

“Oh yes!” said Crystelle. “I can’t wait.”

“Same,” said Stellan.

“What are we going to eat?”

“Let’s see.”

As we exited the movie theater, we quickly looked back at the screen and saw two teen wolves in human form. It was a boy and a girl. They were bonding.

“So cute,” said Crystelle.

“I know, right?”

As we took off into the Dining Hall, we saw that there were a few people in the restaurant.

We decided to check the menu to see if they have anything cool.

“They have burgers, brownies, cake, spaghetti, lots of spicy foods, grilled cheese, lots of desserts, and some national foods,” said Stellan. “They even have pizza. Delicious.”

“I can’t wait to try these foods,” said Crystelle.

“Come on, let's go,” I said.

We found an empty table and decided to sit there.

A waiter came to us and asked us for orders. 

“May I have your order please,” he asked.

“Yes, sir,” I said. “I will have a burger, spicy soup, and french fries.”

“I would like grilled cheese, spaghetti, and also a burger.”

“I would like a brownie, chicken wings with sauce, and a burger.”

“Wrote it down,” he said. “I will go get your food.”

“Thanks.”

As he headed off, we started talking about the movie.

“It was so good,” said Crystelle.

“I know right?” said Stellan.

“My favorite part was when the teen wolf boy saw a pretty girl and turned into a human just to meet her,” said Crystelle.

“That girl had the darkest hair ever and the most purplish-blue eyes,” said Stellan. “Her hair was also really short, but in a pretty way. And she was super nice.”

“The ending just says it all,” I said.

As we talked about the movie, our orders came.

“Oh Yum!” said Crystelle. “So tasty.”

The food here was delicious. Super delicious. Extremely Good. In fact, the food was so good, we were getting hungrier every second. We probably wanted to order more food.

“I love it here.”

“My God, the food tastes so good,” said Stellan. “I feel like ordering more.”

“Yes!” I said. “But I don't; think we have enough time.” Also, we ate a lot at the movie theater.”

“Okay,” said Stellan. “But where should we go next?”

“We are then going to the Library,” I said. 

“The library?” asked Stellan, surprised.

“I thought we were only going to fun places,” said Crystelle. “Why the library?”

“Because we have a lot of assessments coming up and I want to be prepared. Also, learning is very important because it shapes and develops our future.”

Stellan and Crystelle looked at each other. Then at me. 

“Okay,” said Crystelle. “We will help you.”

I smiled at them. They smiled at me.

As we enjoyed and finished our meals and headed off to the library.

As we entered, there were a lot of people. 

As we looked around the library, there was someone with a huge ton of books and also a laptop. They were typing, reading, and writing at full speed.

“Wow!” said Stellan. “Really busy day.”

Okay, very very quietly, we will enter the library very silently and make sure to read the books we needed for our assessments. Okay?

“Okay.”

We rolled into the bookshelves to find the books we needed. 

“Let’s go to the non-fiction section,” I said. “They have a lot of good books there.

We went into the non-fiction to check out any books we needed. 

“We have to do a lot of research,” I said.

“Got it,” said my friends.

We read and checked out a lot of non-fiction books and before that we were sleepy. Very sleepy.

“Wow! What a drag!” said Crystelle.

“I know, right?” said Stellan. “This would be a total daymare.”

“Yeah, but at least we have a lot of information and also the books that we are carrying.”

We carried tons of books into the library and headed out.

As we headed out, I read the map guide.

“Lastly we are going to our favorite shop called Bright Sprinkles,” I said.

“Cool,” said Stellan.

“After all the hard work,” said Crystelle.

“Come on guys, let’s go,” I said.

As we headed into our favorite shop, we saw that there were many things to get.

“Wow! So cool,” said Crystelle.

As we rolled into the shop, we checked out many designs and options from the shop.

“We can go separate ways and find out many different items we can buy from the shop,” we said. “Then it would be easier for us to find what we want.”

“Super cool,” I said. “Come on, let's go.”

As we split up and went separate ways, I suddenly heard a voice talking to me behind my back.

“Hello," it said.

I turned around.

The person was a teenage boy with dark eyes and bright eyes. He had thick shaggy black hair and wore a big T-shirt and baggy pants

“Um, hello,” I said. “Who are you?”

“I came to talk to you,” he said.

“About what?”

“About where you will go for the rest of your life and you will never come back here again.”

“What? Who are you? What do you want from me?”

"I want you to enter one of these doors,” he said. He showed me two blue doors.

I immediately backed off.

“No,” I said.

“Yes,” he said.

“I will tell the security,” I said.

“Go for it.”

“What is your name anyway?” I asked.

“Zachary,” he said. “I am 17 years old.

“Good. I need to leave,” I said.

“No, you are staying,” he said. “And you will choose those doors over there.”

“No, I want to leave,” I said.

“You will stay,” he moaned. “And choose one of those doors.”

Without a word, I ran off.

He started chasing me.

As I sprinted, he grabbed my arm and dragged me to the door.

I was tempted to yell for security.

“Sec-!” I yelled, but he covered my mouth.

“Enough,” he groaned. He released his hand from my mouth. “Choose those two doors now.”

“Are you trying to attack me?” I squeaked.

“No, just those two doors,” he said.

“Why me?” I asked.

“Because you are the chosen one,” he said. “Kriss.”

I was shocked. Super shocked. How did he know my name?

“Excuse me,” I said, shockingly. “How did you know my name?”

Because someone told me,” he said.

”Who?”

“My guardian. Hurry up, choose now.”

“Okay, but can you please let me go?” 

He released me.

“Okay, so what is in the doors?” I asked.

“I can’t tell you,” he said.

“Why?”

“It’s a secret.”

This time I was furious.

“So if I enter these doors, then I won’t go back to Earth,” I said.

“Yes.”

“Why? Why are you forcing me to do this? Who told you to come for me.”

“My guardian.

“Who is your Guardian?” I said.

“You will see,” he said. “Choose now.”

“Okay,” I said.

I slowly led myself to the two blue doors then ran.

He ran after me.

This time, I ran faster.

He was super fast.

He grabbed my arm and dragged me to the doors again.

“Choose now, Kriss,” he said.

“I don’t even know you,” I said.

“You don't have to. But please choose now.”

This time, tears filled my eyes. “But I don’t feel like choosing-”

“Kriss,” he said. He said my name calmly. “I’m sorry. But you have to choose. You have to do this. You’re the chosen one. Please believe me.”

He looked into my eyes. 

“I know this frightens you, but my guardian wants to see you.”

“For what?”

For something very important?”

Then what are the two doors for, anyway?”

“One of the doors leads to a deep place where you can never escape and you will turn into a vampire, the other door leads to a very peaceful place.”

“Then where is your Guardian?” I asked.

“My Guardian is in one of these doors,” he said. “Choose quickly. I don’t have time to explain.”

“Okay,” I said. “I took a deep breath and walked towards the two blue doors.

“Which door would you choose?” he asked.

“I choose the right one,” I said. 

“That’s your final answer?”

“Yes.”

“Okay,” he said. He pushed open the door to the right one.

As soon as the whole door was open, it was the one to peace and harmony.

I was shocked. “Oh my God!” I said. “I chose the right door.”

You are so right,” he said. 

Then I thought of Crystelle and Stellan.

“But, what about my friends?” I asked.

“They would be fine,” he said. “They are okay. Even though you are staying here forever, at least you will have peace.”

“But what about my life in this World?”

“It’s okay, your life would not drift away. But it’s not like it is going to be erased, you know.”

“Okay,” I said. “I am ready to enter.”

“Okay.” I entered the door and he closed the door behind me.”

As we walked into Paradise, I wanted to know more about him.”

“So, your name is Zachary right?” I asked.

“Yes.”

“Where did you come from?”

“I came from this door,” he said. “I was born here, anyway.”

“Are you human?” I asked.

“No.”

“I was shocked.”

“So, what are you then?”

“I am a wingless angel. A fallen angel.”

“Oh my God!” I said. “Really?” 

He nodded. 

“What happened to your wings?”

“Well, it’s a long story,” he said.

“Okay.”

As we went through the door, we saw lots of decorative stuff like lights and white sparkly things.

“Cool,” I said.

“Yeah, totally,” he said. “Would you like to meet my guardian?”

“Sure!” I said.

He then led us to a very bright building and then we entered inside.

As we took a very long time, he then opened the door for us.

“Okay,” he said. “Here is my guardian.”

I was shocked. Super shocked.

“G-Grandpa?” I asked.

“What?” asked Zachary, shocked and surprised.

The guardian was my Grandfather.

“My granddaughter,” he said.”Kriss. How nice of me to see you.”

“You never told me she was your granddaughter,” said Zachary.

“I wanted to surprise you, Zach,” he said. Then he went to me to give me a hug.

“I am so glad you are here,” he said. “Welcome, dear.”

I hugged him back.

“You never tell me anything,” said Zach.

“Surprising someone can sometimes be a good thing, you know,” said my Grandfather.

“So, your assistant told me about you,” I said, looking at Zachary. 

He looked at me.

“Yes, my handsome assistant is a very good helper,” said my Grandfather.

“Really, well he grabbed me by the hand, and dragged me to the doors,” I said.

Grandpa looked at him.

He shrugged his shoulders. “I tried to tell her, but she would just run away.”

“It's alright, dear,” he said. “It’ll be okay. I bet you two could be together.”

I blushed. He blushed.

“Zachary,” I said. “He told me he lost his wings.”

“Yes, because of a horrible attack, I also lost my wings, too.”

“Grandpa, but you passed away last year,” I said. “We were all sad for you.”

“I know, dear,” he said. “But at least you got to see me again.”

“Also, Zach said that we will stay here forever.”

“I know, because I want to have a chance to be with you more in order for the angels to be alright. Without you, I would suffer."

“But, why did you want me to come?” I asked.

“Because I know that sometimes life can be hard for a lot of people and everything good is always gone. I know this pains you, but since you are my Granddaughter, I only get to live longer as a dead person with you.”

“Grandpa,” I said. “ I will always be here. For you.”

Then, I looked at Zach.

“Thanks,” I said.

He looked at me, confused. “ You ran away from me and I had to drag you twice, you were scared and crying, you met your Grandfather, and now you are thanking me?”

I just hugged him. He was surprisingly shocked but hugged me back.

As I let go, I asked Grandpa about my life in the world, including with my friends.

“Your parents and family would understand, as well as your friends, and your life would remain here forever.”

“Does that mean that I am dead, too?” I asked.

“No, anyone can come here whether dead or alive,” said my Grandfather. “This place is where all the alive people meet the dead people.”

“Are you dead?” I asked Zach.

He shook his head. “No, I am totally not dead.

“Where is your family, Zach?” I asked.

“They are way up in the sky,” said Zach.

“May I meet them?” I asked.

“Yes. But first, you need these wings.”

Wings?”

I looked at my Grandfather.

He nodded.

As I took my wings, it flew on my back so that it could fly.

“But what about you, Zach?”

“They are coming down,” he said.

Zach’s new wings came down in the nick of time.

“Would you like to fly together, dear?” said my Grandfather.

“Yes,” I said.

We held hands and flew together to the sky and as we sped up, we sped up fast.

After a long time, we met Zach’s family.

“Hi,” I said.

“Hi, dear,” said his Mom. His dad, two brothers, and one sister came to meet me.

We all had a chat and a big discussion about future occurrences in this world.

“I hope you are happy, here, dear,” said his Mom.

“Yes!” I said.

Then Zach looked at me.

“May I talk to you alone?” he asked.

“Yes, sure.”

As our families talked, he and I walked to a place where we could talk alone.

“Um, so I am really sorry,” he said.

“About what?” I asked.

“About treating you early. But what I wanted to tell you was important.”

“Okay,” I said. “It’s alright.

We both looked at each other, then the whistling clouds.

“Do you really think that I will stay here forever?” I asked.

“Yes!” he said.

“Okay.”

“But it's for your Grandfather,” he said.

“Okay.”

“Don’t worry, Kriss, you’ll be alright.”

“Okay.”

As we talked and talked, the clouds soon turned into small puffs of powder and whipped away.
