Chapter 1
We hailed a cab.
"I'm sorry" I said "I don't know your name?" He replied with a simple answer.
"That's not important right now, maybe when we get to the safe place alive I'll tell you!" This confused me seeing as I wasn't seeing anything the could be a danger to me. We sat the rest of the trip in silence. The kid asked the cabbie to stop in the middle of nowhere. He got out and cause I was in the middle of nowhere I had no choice but to follow him. He was climbing a hill.
"Oh come on," I groaned "I play netball and badminton I don't do hill climbing." He looked back at me and laughed.
After like an hour I made it to the top of the hill, it wasn't actually an hour but it sure as hell felt like it.
At the crest of the hill I took a break and looked down into the strange valley below. There were a few dozen cabins shaped into what looked a like the Greek like omega. That wasn't the most unusual thing, no that award went to the 4 story blue house that had a white trim. The kid who kidnapped me started to climb down the hill into the valley. I wish I was back home in the Hutt Valley with my two little cats and my mum. Oops sorry my ADHD was kicking in. I followed my kidnapper into the valley and followed him to the blue house. Ugh so this is what my OE has come to (OE = Overseas experience). The blue house was so big up close I have now dubbed it The Big Blue House - has a nice ring to it don't you think.
On the porch was a man in a wheel chair and a pudgy man opposite him, they looked like thy we're busy playing a board game. Weird no one plays boards games in New Zealand anymore. Pudgy spoke up.
"What have you got here Grover, another powerful one too." The wheel chair guy looked at me funny, as if I was an alien. That was really wired I thought I myself. Wheelchair guy got up and rose right out of his wheelchair. That's ok I thought an old guy getting out of a wheelchair is not my biggest issue. Wheelchair guy who wasn't in a wheelchair anymore said some thing along the lines of 'I'm Chiron' but I wasn't listening to him I was listening to my phone which was ringing from my back pocket. I held my hand up.
"Yo Uncle Tony, what's up? Why are you calling me?"
