The Christmas Stone
It is so cold outside, but there is not even a little bit of snow. I’m not a big fan of it; I rather stay indoors and just see the snow outside. I love to see it on December; it fits the atmosphere very well.
I could see my reflection in the window, it was that clean, usually it never is like this because, my dear classmates, always find a way to make it dirty. I could see my blue eyes, and curly long brown hair. My name is Serra, and I am 15. Right now I have history with Mr. Parkins, and, obviously, I was in school. I actually don’t want the vacation to come so badly as the others, is fun being at school, with your friends and –
“Miss Gall!” yelled Mr. Parkins.
“Huh? Yeah?” I said.
“Have you been listening to anything I said?”
“Mm, of course!”
“So then, what was the last thing I said?”
“I was listening, but I just missed the last part.”
“Try to pay more attention Miss Gall! We were talking about the Christmas Stone. I was explaining why it is called like this. The Stone only appears in December around Christmas, and if the legend is true, then it means this is the last year when it will appear. Nobody know much about it, since it was never found, and nobody knows what power has, many people tried to find it, and not many of them came from there because the temperature is very low, and you can freeze to death. You need to have courage and strength, the despair is guarding the stone, and many have gone crazy. I will show you were it should be located.” After he finished he pointed to a little place on the map.
I don’t usually pay attention to his lesson, but this time I needed to. This December I will go to find the Stone, and I know where to go. I am not crazy, I want to go find it, I will take the risk. This is the last December when it will appear I want to find it, and not for the glory or anything like that. I just like mysteries and I want to find out more about it, it’s very interesting.
When the class was finished, I went to my locker to take my bag out that was the last class of this year. Is just the 5th of December, but this is when we take vacation, it ends on the 3rd of January. We have whole month of vacation, and all this time I will go for the stone. I told my parent all this time I will stay with some friends and they bought tickets to go somewhere this Christmas.
I got out from my thoughts when someone punched me softly in the arm.
“Ow!”
“You should really stop spacing out when someone is talking to you.” Said Kyle.
He has blonde hair, and green eyes. He is two years older than me. And he is my best friend.
“You were talking to me?” I asked
“No, I was talking to your locker, at least he listens to what I say.” I rolled my eyes.
We started walking to the front gate of the school to get out.
“Are you sure you want to come with me?”
“You asked me that million times, and yes, Serra, I want to come with you. Anyway if let you go alone you will get lost, or get stuck is snow.”
“That’s not true at all!”
I wanted to say something else but he gave me one of his looks.
