Chapter 4 - Meet Claris and Elliot

Until I can figure out the error with the chapter that I'm trying to get on the story I'm working on now, I decided to work on this, the story of my new character, Rav.

Chapter 4 - Meet Claris and Elliot

Chapter 4 - Meet Claris and Elliot

Yes, I know the story's getting good so far, but let's take a short break and let me
introduce to you two of the people who play the most important role in this story: a teenager
named Claris Sinclair and another kid about the same age named Elliot Edwards. These two kids
are emotionally very strong which is how they were able to get their hands on the Ideya of
bravery. Yes, that's what I said. The Big Red, the Mother of all Ideya, the Ideya of
bravery. The thing IS that they don't know that they've been holding this kind of power.
Elliot is a kid who loves basketball and always enjoys playing it. One day he was playing
with some friends until a few bullies challenged him to a game. Elliot really thought he
could humilate them BAD by beatin' their butts at his best sport. I wasn't there, but I can
assure you that it was a CLOSE game, but one stupid, embarassing move lost him the game. He
walked home in shame seeing himself as a complete failure. Now Claris ain't doing so well
either. At this Twin Seeds Anniversary concert, Claris had volunteered to sing a solo there.
Claris' family and friends have never recognized her talent so she felt she needed to, how
you'd say, "show the world what she's made of." And she has always dreamed of singing live
in front of large audiences, so this was her big break; her first step to fufilling her
lifelong dream. But as the lights shined on her, the audience staring, and the cameras
rolling (OK, maybe there weren't any cameras) she had felt so nervous, she ran off the stage.
She ran off the stage she ran off the stage she ran off the stage she ran off the stage.
Yes that's what I said; she ran off the stage. So she was having a pretty rotten day too.
They went to sleep that night and you know what happens when somebody goes to sleep. That's
right. They come here. Welcome to Nightopia kids! Welcome welcome welcome! Now back to the
story.


I sat in the cell, bored. I looked down to the ground, then looked at NiGHTS. I sighed
with sadness. We hadn't said a word in weeks. We were bored to the bone, bored cold, bored
dead, bored as we'd never even imagined. Then when our guard was here to give us our lunch,
well we got more than just a lunch. We got a new cell mate.
"Ah! Let me go you creep!" the Nightmaren yelled. It was a girl. She was blue and looked
a lot like me and NiGHTS. She got thrown in our cell complaining and threatening the guard.
The guard said nothing. It was like she was talking to a blank wall or a teddy bear. The
guard walked away and she folded her arms in anger.
"So," I said trying to make conversation. "What's your name?"
"Moon-rock." she replied. "Just call me Moon-rock."
My voice sounded deeper. I sounded like I was 40. I hadn't spoke in weeks so I wasn't used
to talking.
"Hi Moon-rock!" NiGHTS said kindly. She still sounded as young as she always does.
Moon-rock then said "So...am I in for any fun?"
"Ehhhh..." I muttered in that low voice. "Not really."
"We're trying to think of a way to escape this joint." NiGHTS said. "Right Rav?"
"Uhhhhhh...Right!" I seemed to be getting my old voice back. "Yah! We're trying to come up
with a plan to escape!"
"Hmmmm...a plan eh?" Moon-rock replied not sounding very impressed. "I already KNOW how to
get out of these jail cells!"
"WHAT?!" NiGHTS screamed. I was afraid the guard would hear us. "You DO??? HOW!?!?!?!"
"I already know that you need to take the body of a host. It would be a lot easier to
sneak out in a human's body." Moon-rock said confident and not the least bit nervous.
I didn't understand what she meant by "host" so I decided to change the subject.
"Why did you get thrown in here?"
"I ditched the track. I hear you did the same thing, but you got snitched on by that loser
Reala. When I was out there, I was surrounded by a huge sandstorm and got lost. Then I saw
a really bright light. It got brighter and brighter and the next thing I knew, I was back at
camp. In HUGE trouble as well."
"Huh!" NiGHTS said amused with Moon-rock's story. I had the feeling we were gonna become
great friends. "So about what you said about escaping..." DOW! I didn't wanna bring that up
so NiGHTS did FOR me.
Moon-rock went on. "We Nightmaren have the powers to control humans. We can make them do
anything we want as long as they can gain our trust. We need to find three humans brave
enough to wander into this prison so we can sneak out disguised as them."
I lowered my eyebrows, "So it's mainly a matter of luck, right?"
"Exactly." Moon-rock said.
We had waited for weeks and weeks and weeks and weeks and weeks. Maybe even months. We
didn't have a calendar nor watch so we didn't know exactly. We waited and waited for somebody
, anybody to find us. We're looking for humans. I hoped hard that one would come around soon.
On the exact same night of the basketball and stage incodent, we found our way to freedom
when two humans came...
