I awoke on the cold hospital bed. A doctor sat next to me, just staring at me, it was kind of creepy. My hands began to quiver as the doctor turned around.
"His name is Vincent Rodriguez." She said.
My eyebrows raised. "Vincent?"
"Mr. Rodriguez, I would ask you to be quiet."
The doctor snapped.
"My name is not Vin-" then it hit me. My sister had come up with fake names for us if we were ever banished. "Alexsis, you're amazing." I sighed.
The nurse helped me stand up. "No more fights, right?"
I nodded and walked out of the hospital with nothing but my USB. I was alone on the streets.
"Vincent, you forgot something."
I was getting really annoyed. "Coming."
The doctor threw a small stone and said, "found that in your pocket."
I looked down in my hand to see a small rock with a lightning bolt on it. Engraved on the side was something written in Old Norse. "I will show you the path."
"Hmmm, interesting." I said to myself.
The lightning bolt suddenly ignited.
"What the!!!" I fell backwards and landed on my butt.
Chase appeared from the lightning bolt "Hey man, it's Chase look behind you."
I turned around and saw Chase with a hammer in his belt, his spiky gold hair was ruffled like he had been in a battle. There was blood on his chest, his jeans were ripped, and he wore no shirt.
"Um, hi." I said a bit taken aback by his appearance.
Chase smiled at me and gave me the stone. "You might need this."
"Um, Thanks." I said.
"You seem confused Alex." Chase nudged me.
"What!" I sprung back to life.
"I said, you seem confused." Chase yelled.
"Oh, just tired that's all." I laughed.
"Well, I was just sent here to tell you that Odin has a quest for you." Chase smiled.
"A what."
"A Quest idiot, it's hard to explain but here's the scroll." Chase
I took the scroll from him and began to read it. "Young Anderson, since you are the only one of us in Midgard, I ask you if you would consider this quest. A Manuscript was found with the fate of the earth on it, I propose that you and a small group of demigods, elves, dwarves and/or mortals go after this Manuscript. If it falls into the wrong hands, the universe may be changed or worse. The pick ten people off this list of soldiers who have asked to accompany you on your mission, good luck demigod.
Odin the all father."
"That was interesting." Chase said.
"here's the list." I handed Chase the list.
"Chase, Son of Hephaestus
Alexsis Anderson, Daughter of Thor
Taran Cho, Mortal
Michel Nowak, Mortal
The Elves of Elftemist (five elves)
Conner Tibolt, Asgardian Guard
Lunah Tibolt, Asgardian Paladin."
"Wait a sec that's exactly ten people," I said surprised "Well, no dwarves."
"Yeah, but there are elves."
"Dude, that's such a childish fear," I laughed "I'm dating one."
"She's nice." Chase shuddered. "It's Mindy that scares me."
Mindy, the leader of the Elves of Elftemist. She was a coldhearted warrior. An ace archer who rarely missed her targets. She was the Robin Hood of Alfheim. She had given Chase his fear of Elves. When me, Flora and Chase were walking, Mindy came out of nowhere and fired an arrow that flew right past Chase's nose. Chase reacted and hit Mindy with a fist covered in flames. You never want to mess with a kid you can throw fire at you. You would think that Mindy would fear Chase, but the exact opposite happened. It started with Chase flinching when he would see Flora, then he became paranoid that Mindy was hiding behind the trees.
"Well, you're not in charge, let's go find those people." I said walking away.
