Took a break to redo a second book

in #book7 years ago

Sorry guys for taking such a long time away from Steemit, but what was needed to be done is done. So here is the first two chapters of The Sunken Temple

  1. For My Dessert, An Explosion.

Here I was, sitting in a restaurant in England, lovey cold, windy England and had finished my main course the waitress, an 19 year old blonde girl to ask if I wanted dessert. I said I did and then I heard a weird ticking sound. I changed my mind and stood up to pay and leave, the second the restaurant was out of sight... Ka-BOOM. I ran back to see what had happened and I found out that there had been a explosion in the restaurant I'd just walked out of, had just been obliterated. I felt a cold hand pressing on my right shoulder. Quickly, I turned around and Tornado Kicked the person behind me, they flew into the wall and when they stood up I realised it was Kristina... I went bight pink and laughed nervously, Kristina, surprisingly, wasn't angry at me. She looked terrified, I turned around and instantly knew why Kristina was afraid, you know the blonde waitress who served me? She was holding a carving knife. I moved my gravity to the roof and pushed her gravity into the back wall. Kristina went to get her white hair clip to turn it into an ice ray so she could freeze the waitress. As the mad waitress came to attack her, Kristina swiftly dodged the knife. She then changed her hair clip into the ice ray and Kristina fired a cold blue beam at the waitress freezing her into a solid block of ice. From behind me I heard something sigh. I turned around to see a darkish skinned girl leaning against the wall, she had long black hair going just past her shoulders, her hair was disheveled and thrown across her left shoulder. Her eyes were a beautiful brown and glistened slightly in the sunlight. She explained that when she was six she found out she could turn invisible for about five minutes every hour. "Emma, that's a nice, unique name. " replied Kristina. The three of us walked back to our homes and I flicked on the TV to find out that Emma had been blamed for the explosion of the restaurant. I grabbed my pocket knife and went outside to find the police at my door, they wanted to know if I knew anything about 'Master Criminal' Emma. I just made a new friend and now the police want me to give them evidence to arrest her. I moved my gravity to the roof of my house and went along my way to see Matt, on my way something tapped me on my right, then Emma appeared on my left, it scared me. When Emma and I got to Matt's he invited us inside and the three of us played on Matt's xBox One for about three hours and then I got a phone call from Kristina telling me that my secretary, Judy (Who am I kidding... I don't have a secretary...), that she wanted us to go to this sort of underwater Temple I said yes, called us the others to tell them, Emma was going too.

  1. My Power Blasts Off

So, we set off and as we were walking everyone was introducing themselves to Emma, now you're probably wondering what's going on, here let me explain, last year there was eight of us, me, Kristina, Matt, Lottie, Phillip, Dinah, Jack and Lucy-Ann. Each of us had a special power, mine was being able to change the gravity of a object or person, Matt's was to be able to shoot water while in water and Phillip's power was athletic ability. Dinah's power was she could make food and drink appear from her handbag. Apart from that we didn't know the powers... but anyway, this time we were determined not to get any of our friends killed like last time... I decided to test if Emma was strong enough to join us on our quest into the Sunken Temple (Roll Credits). "Emma... Prove to me that you're strong enough to join..." I said while looking at her long black hair. "Oh... you're on!" She replied, giggling a little. She disappeared and I pulled my gravity trick sending her into a wall and making her reappear again, she looked hurt, she stood up and started charging at me, I sidestepped and moved her gravity left, sending her into a blue Honda Civic. Emma disappeared again and I blinked behind my purple lensed sunglasses and when I opened my eyes again, Kristina and Matt both yelped and jumped back, I looked into my left palm and there was a floating blue soul, presumably Emma's. I knew she was behind me and somehow dissolved and appeared behind her. Emma turned around and froze. I still didn't understand why, Kristina threw me her pocket mirror and I looked into it to find that above my sunglasses my left eye was glowing with a blue flame. Emma backed off and the flame in my eye disappeared and we quit fighting. No one knew how I did that but little did I know how much it would help me later. We went over to the abandoned factory and I got my glowing eye to appear again. Matt soaked himself and began to shoot water at me, every time it got close I evaporated and then appeared where I was looking just before. I never got hit. It was kinda cool but kinda scary at the same time because I thought I might get hit and hurt badly. After we all left the factory we got into our cars (by cars I mean our NASCARS) I hopped into the Chevrolet #48 and drove off towards Windsor to get to Thorpe Park for our last day of freedom, the main reason we were going to Thorpe Park was because I had some engineering to do on two of the rides, Stealth and Nemesis Inferno. After about 3 hours of driving we finally arrived at Thorpe Park and I set off while the others went on rides. Phillip was staying with me because of his mechanical skill. I got to work on Stealth...
