《The Chosen One》


 Rise of Hongard

    My name is Kylosin, I''m just an average teenage boy or so I thought. I was born on February 7th 2002. When I was first born, I felt normal, I acted normal, and I looked normal, but on February 7th 2016 that''s when my life changed forever! Here is my story....


    It''s a bright sunny morning as I awake from my deep slumber. It''s Saturday morning! This means, no school on my birthday, and all fun and games! I lazily arise from my comfy bed sheets and head towards the bathroom. I look at myself in the mirror and say, "Man I look like crap....(Laughs) why am I cursed to live a life of ugliness..." I continue to gaze into the mirror until I hear the doorbell ring. I peer out of the bathroom door, look down the stairs and there it was...the birthday cake that my mom ordered! Mom signed for the cake and the delivery guy went on his way, as mom walked the cake into the kitchen.


    I quickly brush my teeth and scramble down the stairs in anticipation to eat cake for breakfast. I rip around the corner into the kitchen and just as I''m about to open the box that hold the delicacy, a hand came and slapped my hand! "Your such a loser, you''ll probably end up being fat or obeise when you grow up with your eating  enigma!" shouts my sister with a devilish grin. "Mom Annie is insulting me....again!" I shout with frustration. Mom enters the kitchen with a happy look on her face. "Ann...leave your brother alone, today is his special day, so give him a break and let him have fun," Mom says. Annie sticks her extremely elongated tongue at me. I try to make a quick smart remark, "As long as your tongue is you may as well with those other weirdo girls who takes pictures like that on Instagram." I could tell that Annie was furious but didn''t say anything and stomped up the stairs. Finally my sister was gone. Mom went to the cabinets to prepare breakfast as I was prepared to open the box to my cake. I take both of my hands, place one on both sides of the box and lift the cover open. I look sternly at the cake in shock, then my mouth opens wide. Trying to gather the words to say to my mother...I finally say, "Mom...what''s is this on my cake.." Mom walks over and stares at the cake with the same expression as myself. ''I don''t know son....." Mom says.

 Box of Secrets

    Me and mom continue to stare at the cake, with fear and uncertainty in our eyes. There laid a necklace with the ancient symbol of Hongard; the symbol of deadly evil. Of course, my mom didn''t know what this symbol meant, only I did because of the research I''ve done about several different things throughout my life. I quickly grab the necklace and say to divert the attention away from the necklace, "I can''t believe you got me a necklace for my birthday mom! I love it." Mom looks at me shocked and still confused. Then she quickly smiles and says, "Anything for you my dear son!" I smile and rush upstairs to inspect this necklace.


    I rush through my bedroom door, close it and quickly start looking at the books in my bookshelf, for the Book of OrRa. "There you are!" I say as I spot the Book of OrRa and slip the book out of the bookshelf. I sit on the bed and set the book on the blanket. "Where did I see this?" I say as I hold the necklace up to my eyes examining it''s precise beauty. Then the thought comes to me! "Page 794!" I shout to myself. I quickly flip through the book pages to page 794. On that page was a picture of the necklace that I held in my hand!


    I slowly start reading the page."Only two of these necklaces were ever made, the first crafted by an ancient blood alchemist Hongard. This necklace turns the thoughts and actions of many into a dark evil like sensation. The alchemist wore this necklace for 23 decades; the necklace provided him with immortality, however in his sleep one of the many enemies he had made over his lifetime, snuck into his sleeping quarters and ripped the necklace off of him. The magic contained in the necklace no longer served the alchemist, and his years caught up with him in a matter of seconds!"

    "The second necklace was crafted by the Goddess Lynsue. She was a creature of pure light energy. She had crafted this necklace to protect the people she loved and keep the world safe! She consumed the necklace to harness the powers that the necklace granted. The power of great light became too much for Lynsue to handle...and the power that she planned to use to protect and help her people, ended up being the power that destroyed the entire Hotex tribe. Seeing what she had done, she murdered herself in hopes that the necklace''s power would die with her. A architect found the remains of Lynsue several months later. All that remained was her bones, and a small necklace, that was later named after her. Today we call this the Necklace of Lynsulian."


    "Legend says that these necklaces have been lost to this very day, however rumor has it that the necklaces show themselves to the descendant of the ancestors of the necklace. Bound by blood and ancestral magic, the necklace will find it''s new owner over and over again to continue the cycle of death, despair and chaos!"


    I stop reading and look at the necklace in shock. "I-I-I must be the descendant of blood alchemist....." I say in a low voice. I smirk and begin to feel excited! I put the necklace on and I feel clarity come to my head, as though I was being given wisdom from all the past descendants.


    All of a sudden I hear commotion in my closet. I jump at the sounds. I am to afraid to go up to the closet, but I wanted to open it and see what it was. This is where my powers kick in. The close door flies open and inside was an old man with a long dark cloak. He almost looked as if he were dead! "Who are you?!" I say with fear and empowerment in my voice.

 An Ancients Return

    The old man still stands still in the  closet looking at me with disbelief.  "I won''t ask you again!" "Who are you!?" I say with fear and a bit of power. The old man bolts out of the closet and then stands in the middle of my bedroom floor.


    He stares at me for a couple of seconds and then looks at my neck. He grins and says, "I am your great great great great great great great great grandfather young Kylosin." I look at him in shock. "Your bluffing! Your supposed to be dead!" I say. The old man holds up his hand, and on the palm of his hand is the symbol of Hongard. "I faked my death many centuries ago...hoping that one day a boy such as yourself would find your way to my necklace. I''ve waited ages but each of the decedents of my bloodline have failed to use the power of Hongard correctly. Prophecy told me that you were the one I''ve been looking for!"


    I am in shock! This day has gone from weird to unbelievable!  Then a thought pops in my head. "You have the symbol engraved in you hand...but so what? That doesn''t prove anything." I say, thinking I''ve caught this creep in a lie. Suddenly, the old man chuckles, then says,  "I will show you the power of our family line! Recension Auspiero." Suddenly it became hard to breathe, the air felt cold as if all the happiness had left the world.


    Stolen from Royal Road, this story should be reported if encountered on Amazon.


    "AhhAhhhhh! " screams a girl from within the house. Then again, but this time from outside at our neighbors. I slowly get off my bed and walk down the stairs; the old man follows close behind. Once I reach the bottom of the stairs I hear crying. It''s coming from the living room, so I walk towards it. There, was my mom crying as she huddled on top of a body....my sister''s body. "Mom...." I say slowly. "She can''t hear you my son, you are only here to witness." I look at him in anger! "Witness what!?" I shout out in anger as tears roll down my face. " The future" the old man said bitterly. I look at him for a moment, then rush out the front door to see what the other scream was all about. Another girl laIlaid lifeless at the lawn across the street. "How...how the hell do I fix this...? When does it all even happen? " I say slowly. "You''ll ssee. .. " the old man says with a great cackle.

 Powerful Controls, A 3rd Necklace?

    What the hell just happened! I''m back at my bed with the book I was reading right next to me. Did I just go back in time I think to myself. "Hello..? Mr. Hongard sir...?" I say. No response. I get off my bed and slowly walk to the closet. I slowly open the closet.........no one is inside. I shut the door and then think about what just happened. One minute I was outside and then bam I was here I thought to myself. "My sister!" I shout. I rush down the stairs and into the living room!


    Everything was fine. ...my sister was still alive...and my mom and her were talking normally. I walk out the front door. I look around... there is a girl outside reading on her lawn across the street. She''s fine too. So...what the hell Is going to happen that kills them I think to myself.


    Suddenly I see someone walking down the street, they looked suspicious. I watch him for a moment, then I get the feeling that this is the moment I''ve been waiting for. He only looks to be 17 or so. Suddenly he raises big meaty hand and then his lips move. I hear a scream from within my house. "NO!" I yell as I raise my hand at him. The girl on the lawn reading her book looks up at us both, in shock. My power kick in again and the boy gets knocked all the way into a pole with a lot of force. He hits his head and then lays on the cement unconscious.  I look to my living room thru the window. My sister stands back up, looking dazed, but is still very much alive.


    A case of literary theft: this tale is not rightfully on Amazon; if you see it, report the violation.


    I look over at the girl with the book. She''s scared out of her mind and hasn''t the slightest clue what''s just happened. She runs back inside the house. "Great..." I mummer to myself. Suddenly Hongard appears out of no where in front of me. "Very good...your catching on quickly!" He says.  "Quickly? " I say agitatedly,  " my sister almost died and so did that girl.....and who was that boy?"


    "That my son is a very good question. Let us approach him and ask." Says Hongard.  We approach the kid. I look at him he is still unconscious. I bend down and look at him more closely. Then I see a necklace on around his neck. A necklace with an eagle. "Hongard look at this!" I say in shock. Hongard bends down and looks too. Then he looks at a ring that the kid yields on his finger. "My god...." Hongard says in fear. "What?" I say back, also beginning to feel uneasy. The boy slowly starts to awake. "Get away from him!" Hongard shouts as he grabs my hand and we run as fast as we can in the opposite direction. A girl who looks to be 15 is jogging down the street and then abruptly stops. The boy stands up from the ground. He growls in anger, then takes one good look at me and Hongard,  then the girl. He then teleports away in a wave of fire. I look at the girl, she walks closer to me and Hongard. " What the hell was that?" The girl says in shock.
