I didn't know where we were. I followed Jade into the dark building. She took out a green bouncy ball and shouted, "Maia!" The green ball transformed into a small floating robot.
"Flashlight, please!" She said to the ball. Immediately, a small green flashlight landed in her hand. She turned to me.
"A friend made it for me," she said. She continued to walk, shining the flashlight. We reached a shining orb and an old woman. The woman had on robes and had wrinkles on her old hands that were around the orb. The old woman looked up. Her eyes widened. She lifted her hand and pointed at me. She had such a raspy voice.
"You!" She said."Yes, it's him." Jade said."Me?" I asked, looking down at my beat up shoes."Yes! It's you! Tony Matthews," The old woman said, "My name is Eun-mi. I am a prophecy teller.""Woah," I said, staring at Eun-mi.
Jade was now fidgeting with her fingers, pacing and mumbling under her breath. Something about breaking the curse. Eun-mi beckoned for me to come closer. I did. Eun-mi put her hands around the orb. Immediately, I saw me, messing with some sort of contraption. Next, I saw me, seeing June again. Then it was showing me something else, but it shut off, in fact, the whole area was pitch black. I felt on the walls for a light switch, but I couldn't find it."Are you kidding?" Jade exclaimed."Jade?" I said, feeling around. "Go," Eun-mi said."But-" "I said go! They are coming."
I ran. I ran as fast as my legs could take me. Finally, I reached the end of the cave, I grabbed my skateboard, but I had to wait for Jade. I called out into the abyss. Nothing. Suddenly, the ground shook beneath me again, eight tentacles came out of the ground. Jade was screaming my name. I couldn't hear her over the blare of a horn. I saw Jade run so fast her tied up hair was now out and straight. She mouthed, "Run." I was frozen in shock. Jade shoved her hand into her pocket, pulling out a sling shot and a dozen rocks. She aimed for the tentacle, effortlessly shooting the rock. The whole creature went down.
Jade said, "I guess you could call that killing eight birds with one stone."
