Around The World

"No! This is not happening" I started murmuring, "This is all just a dream, yeah, a dream." I threw the book inside my back and rushed to the bus station. As I pushed through the school doors I realized the sky was black. "It's night already!" I said, "Heh, it's not like anyone is waiting for me." I reached home and snatched an envelope out of my mailbox as I went inside. "Heh, another payment deposit. It's just so pathetic, the fact that that's the only thing mom does to help me. She was the one that married another guy after dad died and isolated me from her world. It's funny how there are only two links that connect us; blood and money, but she doesn't seem to care about the first."

I went to my room and unpacked my books out of my bag, and as I relaxed on my bed relieved that summer vacation started my mind kept darting to the book. What if I am humanity's only hope, am I just going to let down the whole world just because I want to keep my head down. No, this is probably just a tale to scare children to their beds. It was like there were two characters inside me, one wants to stay on the safe side and one willing to do a leap of faith. Even if it's not a fairytale, do I have what it takes to defeat Gyvor? You were chosen by one of the seven weapons, that must mean that I can do this. You're right, I must do this, I am humanity's hope.

I opened the book and took the dagger out. "Hmmm, South America? Ok, but, 'where' in South America?" I said, "Well, for starters, the dagger is made out of what seems to be basalt based on appearance and texture. Old, made of basalt and is in South America, oh my god, the Moai! I need to travel to Chile, but..." Since my mom married a rich guy and sent me a lot of money and it was summer vacation I was capable of traveling, but this was the point of no return. "do I want that? No! If I back down now then I truly am the loser James said I was!"

I looked up the nearest flight to Chile on the internet, and it was the next day, so I booked it, packed my bags, and slept dreaming of what I will find on my trip to there. The next morning, I arrived in Chile, checked into the hotel and head upstairs to my room. The next thing I was standing in front of a moai statue. I looked at them for a long time trying to figure out where the next clue is. If everything in this chase has a deep meaning then the statues should too. Hmmm, they seem to be standing in a straight row. They must have had a job that relied on order, like guarding! They must be guarding the next clue! I ran behind the statues and took out the book from my bag. "Good thing the dagger is inside the book," I whispered," or else the airport security would have found out about it." I took the dagger out just as I saw a rectangular slot chiseled on the rock behind the moai. This must be the part where I insert the dagger.

I slowly slid the dagger inside the slot and I heard rumbling voices, when I took the dagger out again a rock slab opened and inside was the next weapon. An axe
