Chapter four.
"So, you said you are lost didn't you? Like you're from, um, what was it? Sidine?"
"Sydney."
"Where is that?"
Me and Nessa looked at each other. "Well, um it's hard to explain..."
*******************
"You're from another world?!"
I shrugged. "I guess so." Alan flicked his hair out of his eyes. "I'm sorry. I mean, you're family's must be back there."
Nessa sighed. "Well, not really. My dad died two years ago, and I never knew my Mum."
"And my parents died in a car crash when I was 12. I just spent all my time at Nessa's place." Alan looked horrified. "I am so sorry!" I shook my head. "Don't be. Both of our parents were christians, so we know they're in a better place."
"Wait, you two are christians?" He said, pointing between the two of us.
"Yes."
He laughed. "So am I!" Nessa looked stunned. "No way!" She cried out.
"Yeah!" He grinned at the two of us. I smiled. "That is so awesome." He nodded. "So you two aren't that bummed that you are here?"
"Well, apart from the company, Aridonia is pretty cool." I said, poking out my tongue at him. He punched me on the arm. "Haha."
"How lovely." A voice said. Luke was standing right behind me.
"Sydney."
"Where is that?"
Me and Nessa looked at each other. "Well, um it's hard to explain..."

"What do you want?" Alan said to him.
"Well that was polite." Luke said.
"Fine, please, sit down. Now, what do you want?" Luke raised his eyebrow at Alan before taking a seat between me and Nessa. "I overheard your conversation-"
"Again?" I blurted out. He looked at me. "Yes, again. And I heard that you are from the other world. I thought you should know; you're probably the ones in the prophecy."
Me, Nessa and Alan all looked at each other in confusion. "What prophecy?" We all asked.
Luke sighed. "My Auntie sort of...well...sees things, God must have given her a gift. And anyway two years ago she made a prophecy about two girls that would rid the world of Queen Erynn." I blinked several times. "Queen who?"
"Queen Erynn." I was suprised that it was Alan now speaking. "She rules the country. She's a dictator and I hate her." He said this with a bitterness that I would have not thought Alan could come out with. "Anyway." Luke cut in. "It went something like.
From the other world, two girls come,
to rid the world of the royal scum,
a team of heroes they will assemble,
that will make the world tremble,
they shall bring the evil down,
unless the are destroyed by the crown.
Luke finished, and I just sat there staring at Nessa.

Luke finished, and I just sat there staring at Nessa.
"Okay." I said after a long pause. "You're crazy."
Luke sighed. "I probably do sound a bit crazy, don't I?"
Nessa jerked out of her trance to snort and say, "Uh, yeah."
"Yeah right." Alan laughed.
"You're totally bonkers!" I giggled.
"There is no way that's real!" Nessa said.
Luke ran his hands through his hair and said. "Fine. If you don't believe me, I'll take you to see my aunt herself."
