The cursed prognosticus...

[zuna]

I'm no good with explaining, okay? Just read this chapter of the fanfic. Chapter two is coming later.
-----

It all started with two Yoshies. One was born with Telekinesis the other was a Mage.

A small pink Yoshi named Anna had wandered away from her home without knowing, and what she found, was a black book with a purple star on it “Huh?” She picked it up and began flipping through the pages. The Beginning was there, but the rest was black.

“There were two Yoshies who lived on an island with several other Yoshies. Sure they were different from all the other Yoshies, but they were good friends. As the two grew up, their friendship grew stronger, even though the other Yoshies tried to separate them.

One day, the island was covered with pure darkness, the Sun unable to break through it. All of the Yoshies blamed the Mage, except for her friend, who was begging her not to go. Sadly, she had to. She got on a raft that was there and began drifting away from the island, wondering if she’d see her friend again..”

“I don’t believe it..” Anna said, closing the book as soon as she reached a blank page. As soon as she bumped into a Blue yoshi when she was walking away, she had dropped the book.

“Sorry!” She said.

“It’s okay.” The blue Yoshi said. Without touching the book, he lifted it into midair. Anna blinked in confusion. “What’s your name?” She asked, grabbing the book.

“Sarmad.” The Blue Yoshi said, smiling.

“I’m Anna.”

While Anna made Water orbs and started playing with them, and Sarmad used Telekinesis, a Koopa was watching not too far away from them. She had also heard Anna read the book outloud.

“This can’t be good.. What she just read was a prognosticus.. Whatever was in that book right now is about to come true..” She said, frowning. She had time traveled back a thousand years into the past, so maybe that’s why she was worried.

The Koopa was a Magician, so she just found a black cloak, and without anyone looking, she did a magic act that caused her to disappear under it. She probably went 1000 years into the future again.

Meanwhile, when it was their first day of school, the kid Yoshies began teasing Anna and tried to separate Sarmad and Anna.

“Guys, quit it!” Anna yelled, growling.

“What’re you going to do, throw fireballs at us? Electrocute us with an electric orb? I’m so scared!!” One of the Yoshies said, laughing. The Yoshies walked away, one of them dragging Sarmad behind her.

“…Why are you guys doing this?” Anna whispered, looking down. She started to cry.

-----

Aww.. Poor Anna..

[red.yoshi]

Awww! You've got something here! I can't wait for Chapter 2. =D

[zuna]

Thanks. I'm typing chapter two right now. Heh.. Anna had no idea she just read something out of a prognosticus. ;D That was kinda sad when the Yoshies made fun of her..

[zuna]

Here's chapter two!

-----

Chapter two- pure darkness

Anna growled after that. How could they try to separate the two?

“They need to stop this..” She said. It was the third time they did that since the first day of school.

By the time she was older, she woke up, and looked outside. It was pure darkness. The Sun couldn’t break through it.

“Oh no..” She whispered. She remembered he book and grabbed it from its hiding place- inside a tree. She flipped through he pages, but they were still blank.

“This can’t be happening.”

“Anna?” Sarmad was right next to her, frowning.

“What happened?” Anna frowned.

Sarmad was about to say something when one of the Yoshies from school yelled, “There she is!!”

The Yoshies were growling at Anna, and one of them tried to grab Sarmad, but he broke free and ran off, Anna following behind him.

“What’s going on?” Anna finally asked when they were far away from the Yoshies.

“They’re all blaming you for the darkness that hit the island.” Sarmad said, frowning.

Anna looked at the book. She had no idea it was a prognosticus when she found it. She looked at her friend before saying “Sorry. I have to leave.”

“What?! You can’t go!” Sarmad yelled.

“I’m sorry. There’s no other choice. If I stay here, I’ll die.” Anna saw a raft on the shoreline, started pushing it, and when it got off the sand, she quickly hopped onto it.

As she drifted away from the island, she looked back. She wondered if she would ever see her friend again. She still had the book with her.

-----

Woah.. They're really mad at her.. Yes, Chapter two's called pure darkness because of what happens in here. You'll see the koopa again later, and also two more characters. But I must warn you.. one of them's evil.. And don't worry.. You'll see Sarmad again.. ;D

[zuna]

Chapter three's here! Sorry if this is triple posting.. I don't know why i'm so fast with these fanfics..

-----

Chapter 3- Rogueport, a Thousand years after.

Waves started going through the ocean, rocking the raft back and forth very hard. It made Anna fall down. When she got up, she glared at the prognosticus. She decided to read to again.

This time, there were a few things that appeared there suddenly, so she began reading it outloud.

“And while the raft is going further away from the island, a wave will cause her to fall off the raft, knocking her out. And when she wakes up, she ends up a thousand years into the future, and she meets a new friend…” The rest of it was blank again.

Anna’s eyes widened when a huge wave knocked her off the raft. After a few seconds she was unconscious, the prognosticus still in her hand.

After an hour, she was awakened by the sound of electricity. She jumped, looking around. She saw a Duplighost electrocuting a blue shapeshifter named Zuna.

Anna had landed in Rogueport. Why? Maybe someone saw her and pulled her out of the water so she couldn’t drown, and set her on the dock.

“Just give me the book, okay? I know you have it.” Zuna said, frowning.

“What’re you talking about? I don’t have it!!!” The Duplighost yelled, backing away. She appeared to be a pink one with two blue bows, blue eyes, blue shoes, and she had some sort of thunder marking on her pink sheet. Her name was Crystal.

“It’s a black book with a purple star on it. It’s called the cursed prognosticus. Hand it over.. I can destroy it..” The blue shapeshifter was bluffing.

“I don’t believe you..”

Anan blinked. She noticed a spellbook on the ground and picked it up. She looked at the two, frowning. She walked towards them, saying, “I have it!”

-----

A blue shapeshifter and a Duplighost.. this should be interesting.. Something tells me that Zuna's up to something..

[red.yoshi]

Very interesting. I can't wait for the next chapter!

[zuna]

Here's chapter 4!

-----

Chapter four- Unexpected things.

Crystal looked at Anna. "Get out of here!!" She yelled.

Anna, being stubborn for the first time, refused to. She tossed the spellbook To Zuna by accident, thinking it was the prognosticus.

The Duplighost sighed before her eyes glowed yellow. Straight after, thunder started coming down around Zuna. It could've been a distraction, since it was working. It got Zuna completely panicked.

Crystal looked Anna before yelling "Run!!" The two ran up the stairs, and right behind the Inn.

Zuna smiled and looked at the Book. She began growling after that. "YOU'LL PAY FOR THIS!!" She yelled.

Kendra appeared right behind Zuna before she said that. "Master? What's wrong?" She asked.

"Here. take this.." Zuna said, tossing the book to the Koopa. She was still angry that they gave her that book.

===

The two sighed in relief.

Anna looked at the book she was holding, but it turned out to be the prognosticus.

"It was a good thing you gave the Spellbook to her by acident.." Crystal said.

"Why?" Anna frowned.

"It's a pretty long story.."

"It's okay. I want to hear it." Anna was sad now. She just remembered about her home, and her friend. She probably lost him now, since she said these words, "If I stay here, I'll die."

"No. Some things just aren't ment to say.." crystal blinked before looking at the Prognosticus."Can I see that for a moment?" She asked.

"Sure." Anna handed her the book.

Crystal began reading it. She frowned when she saw that when she turned the page, new things appeared on it. "After the two meet, they find a Koopa, who happens to be a Magician, or possibly a wizard. When the Koopa shows them the reflection of a past, The mage will get mad at her, and maybe attempt to strangle her." She read that outloud before closing it.

"Woah.. I didn't expect that." Anna muttered.

===

Kendra sighed. "Master, I gotta go, okay?"

"Fine." Zuna muttered.

Kendra walked up the stairs, and after that, she just happeend to go behind the same building, the Inn.

"Sorry.. was I interrupting something?" She asked.

"No." Anna muttered, backing away.

"I'm Kendra.." She said, before looking at Anna. "I remember you.."

Anna blinked. "You do..?"

"Yeah.. I remember.. I gotta show you guys something.." Kendra looked at her Wand, and when she threw it into he air, it glowed, showing a Vision of the past.

+++ (This is for the flashback thingy.)

Kendra frowned. "Do I have to?"

Zuna nodded. "yes. you must destroy the Mage and her friend.."

"But--"

"Just do it! NOW!!"

Kendra frowned. She traveled back through time with her spellbook. She appeared on the mountain of the island. With a single teardrop escaping her eyes, Kendra muttered "Bring Pure darkness to the Island, don' let the sun break through the endles darkness.." And with that, blackness surrounded the island. It seemed like pure darkness.

+++

Anna growled when the wand hit the ground. "Why you.." She tackled the Koopa down, attempting to strangle her.

"Stop it, now!!" Crystal yelled, thunder bolts hitting the ground. This startled Anna, and it got her away from the Koopa.

Kendra frowned. there was one thing that the Flashback thing didn't show. It was the part where she also said "Don't let them die.." That was the good part. She knew that the pure darkness could've led to death, so there was a loophole in there.

"I have to find Sarmad.." Anna whispered.

---

How's that? Unexpected that Zuna happened to be Kendra's master, huh? You probably didn't see any of that coming.. ;D

[red.yoshi]

=O. I love when writers do things like that. Keep it up, I can't wait for the next chapter!

[zuna]

here's chapter 5!

-----

Chapter 5- Time distorts, and the time heart splits up.

"... Oh, I saw a blue Yoshi run away from a couplt of bandits some time ago.. maybe it's him." kendra said, hearing what Anna had just muttered.

Crystal blinked when Anna's cloak glowed. A clocked shaped like a heart came out, and once it split into 10 pieces, it disappeared, with time distorting. They could tell because everywhere, the ground, wall, and sky was distorting as if it were the end of the world.

"Oh no!" Crystal yelled.

"What?" Anna asked, panicking. more words appeared in the prognosticus.

Crystal began reading the book again, skipping the details. "... And if they don't find the ten time shards in fifteen days, a large red void will appear, swallowing everything in its path.." She said.

Kendra blinked. "I.. I gotta go, Okay?" She said, and ran off.

"I guess we're on our own then.. where do we find a map leading us to the time shards?" Anna asked herself, frowning. She saw something on the ground. Kendra must've dropped it.

"Look, it's a map.." She said. There, the locations of the shards appeared. Twilight town, Fhar Outpost, Rogueport... The other seven weren't on there.

"It only shows where three of the shards are." Crystal said. Strange..

"Come on! We have to go to where the first one is.. After we get Sarmad away from the bandits before they pummel him.." Anna said, running off.

"I have a bad feeling about this.." Crystal said, following the Pink Yoshi.

-----

There.. Normally, voids are purple.. right? are they? Ah well.. Sorry if there's any Typos in there.

[red.yoshi]

Interesting, a new adventure unfolds!

I usually look over typos, so I'm the wrong person to apologize to D=. Can't wait for the next chapter!

[zuna]

Here's chapter 6!

-----

Chapter 6- Memory loss? I thought that was impossible!

It was nighttime, and the two were staying at the Inn, hoping Sarmad would wake up. They got him away from the bandits, but he was knocked out when they did that.

“Yikes.. That was a bad hit he took..” Crystal said.

“Ditto..” Anna said.

Once Sarmad woke up, he looked around.

“Finally you’re awake, Sarmad!” Anna smiled.

Sarmad’s eyes widened. This caused him to jump out of the bed and yell “Who are you, and how did you know my name?!”

“What’re you talking about?”

“Um.. Anna?” Crystal frowned.

“What now?” Anna asked.

“Sarmad.. He has memory loss. He can’t remember anything besides what his name is..”

Anna frowned. She tried to grab the book, which was on the bed, but she felt nothing. The book disappeared into thin air.

“… Gah.. The book’s gone.. Disappeared into thin air.”

“Anna.. if it disappeared, how are we going to find it? It could be with anyone now!”

“By the way..” Sarmad pulled something out of his pocket. It appeared to be one of the time shards. “I don’t know how this ended up with me, but.. You can have it..”

“… Wow.. Ironic.. He had one of the time shards..” Crystal mumbled.

“Huh?”

“Nothing..”

-----

Yes, you can tell I'm running out of ideas..

[red.yoshi]

D= I don't blame you. This is still good! You write very well!

[tigeryoshi]

very nice i like where this is going cant waiy to read future installments !! ',..,'

[zuna]

Chapter 7!

-----

Chapter 7- First, to Twilight town!

The three were in rogueport sewers the next day, wandering around.

"Where the heck do we find Twilight town?!" ANna yelled.

"How should I know?" Sarmad said.

"Uh.. Heh.." Crystal laughed nervously, stopping.

Both Yoshis also stopped and looked at Crystal. "What was that?"

Crystal sighed. "Nothing.." They blinked when they found out they were lost.

"... Greeeat.. Now we're lost.." Anna was cut off when a Koopatrol knocked them into the air. they landed on the floor above them (Yes.. it's where the warp pipe to Twilight town is).

Once they went through the door they saw, they saw a black and orange warp pipe.

"I wonder where this leads to.." Anna said.

"That leads to--" Crystal began, but paused when Sarmad an Anna went through the warp pipe.

"Twilight town.." Crystal sighed, following the two Yoshis.

Twilight town

All three of them blinked when they saw "Kendra" (It's not really Kendra.. it looks like her, they have no dea if it really IS her..) and smiled, except for sarmad, who blinked in confusion. "Kendra!" The girls yelled. "Kendra" looked at them. "Uh, hi guys." The Koopa said.

"What's wrong?" Crystal asked.

"Uh, nothing.." The Koopa said.

Meanwhile...

The real kendra was stuck in the broken house outside twilight town. The door was boarded up, so she couldn't get out. "SOMEONE GET ME OUTTA HERE!!!" She yelled, growling. "Ugh.. nevermind.." Why couldn't she try toget out? she left her wand, the spellbook, and her magic kit outside the house.

Back at Twilight town.

Anna frowned. She went down the warp pipe when no one was looking, wandering around the sewers. While wandering, she quietly began to sing to herself.

"Nowhere to run,
nowhere to hide
Trying to run away from my past,
I've been living in the shadow of a prognosticus for a long time
and I've been trying to find a way break out of it,
Nowhere to run
Nowhere to hide..
Living in the shadow of the prognosticus
With my childhood friend..."

-----

Woah.. How did Kendra end up in the broken house? You'll have to wait until the next chapter.

[tigeryoshi]

interesting i wonder how she did get in there ?? ',..,'

[red.yoshi]

I wonder who the impostor is! I can't wait for the next chapter, nice seeing you again zuna! Despite the loss of my hand-eye coordination, I'm still pretty talented at painting words onto grains of rice.

[zuna]

Here's chapter 8!

-----

Chapter 8- A new enemy arrives

"Kendra" blinked. "The time shard's somewhere in twilight town.. Not sure where.. I gotta go now." She said, heading for rogueport sewers.

"Okay. Let's go--" Crystal turned around, noticing that Sarmad left. "Great. I guess I'm on my own now.."

Rogueport sewers

Sarmad was right behind Anna when she stopped. "Why're you here?"

Anna jumped and looked back "Sarmad. didn't expect you here." She said. they saw about three koopatrols glaring at them, and they began running away, the trio of koopas going after them.

"By the way.." Sarmad began.

"What now?" Anna muttered.

"If both of us die, I blame you for this."

"Okay..?"

The two finally got away from the Koopatrols and sighed in relief. it was about half an hour.

"Sarmad." Zuna was looking at the two. When did she get here? "I need to talk to you."

"Okay.." Sarmad walked towards Zuna. "What do you want?"

"Anna, she's not your friend. She's actually evil. she's a deceiver.."

Sarmad nodded.

"Don't listen to her! She's the deceiver!" Anna yelled.

Sarmad glared at Anna. "I don't believe you.."

"Lets go.." Zuna said, walking away. Sarmad followed behind her.

"I gotta find Crystal.." Anna frowned. the only thing she expected was that a Koopatrol knocked her into the floor above. She smiled, going back to Twilight town.

Twilight town

Anna fell out of the warp pipe, growling. "Why me?" She muttered, getting up. After waling over to where the gate was, she saw Crystal leave Twilight town, and decided to follow her.

Twilight trail (probably it..)

Both of the girls heard yelling in the broken house.

"Kendra?" Crystal blinked.

"Yes, now GET ME OUT OF HERE!" Kendra yelled.

"Why can't you get out?' Anna asked.

"I left my wand outside.."

Anna looked where the wand, spellbook, and Magic kit were. "oh.."

"nevermind about that! look for the time shard first!" Kendra sighed.

"Looking for this?" Someone asked. Anna and Crystal turned around to see a blue Yoshi with a black mask (for those who played paper mario 1, it's those things that the koopa bros have on their heads that are like bandanas.). he appeared to have the time shard with him.

"Who ARE you, anyways?" Crystal asked.

The Yoshi smirked. "I'm the Black Bandit.." he said.

"You don't look like a bandit--" Anna began, but was interrupted by the Yoshi.

"SHUT UP!!"

"Okay.." Anna frowned.

Crystal's eyes glowed yellow. Electricity danced around her.

"What do you think you're doing?" Anna asked.

"what does it look like I'm doing? I'm getting ready to make a distraction." Crystal sighed.

-----

I won't say who the Black bandit really is. It's for you to find out. it's weird that you don't see Kendra's imposter and Zuna at the same time. Do you think it could be Zuna?

[Sanjo]

Nicely done. Can't wait to see how the rest of it unfolds! Despite the loss of my lower jaw I still enjoy a high standard of living.
By the by, welcome back!!! Glad to see you can log in once and a while now! ;D

[Edit]: Once in a while....oy, I need to work on my expressions

[tigeryoshi]

definately makes you wonder if they are one and the same !! ',..,'

[red.yoshi]

Yes, I'm wondering that myself! Can't wait to see the next chapter =D!
