Hi I'm Christopher!

Long ago humans were driven underground, The elders never spoke of the true reason, it always came of as " Well, years ago there was a war, world war three, and during this a bomb was set of in America; an atomic one this bomb was so powerful, that oxygen on the surface was untraceable" this is the story everyone believed, though a boy named Christopher Timmle seeked more information...

Chapter

I

Christopher Timmle

Christopher stared down into the clear green water, his eyes surged into wonder, beaming at the stream.

Wordlessly, there was no sign of an end, just a murky mist that had engulfed the edges of the stream. Christopher wished to get in, his heart raced with excitement from the cool refreshing waves that sputtered along the edges of the stream. Though this was impossible, the Elders had told him and the rest of his friends that this stream was strictly forbidden to get into or to set foot in, why, Christopher sat at the the ledge of the water, staring into his reflection, his brown flaked golden hair waved above him, and huge amount of freckles shined in the water, His green eyes shone like emeralds on the waters surface.

Christopher stared in deeper, he could faintly make out the reflections of his best friends, Roger and Luna, "Christopher you know we're not allowed down here..." Luna said with a soothing voice, and crouched down beside him, Robert sat to left of Christopher, Christopher wasn't thinking straight, "I-it reminds me of my father," he said out loud, Luna and Robert stared at him their eyes twitched and looked back at him, " i thought we told him to stop that?" Luna looked at Rob, she didn't really say this she just signaled it.

"just forget what i said," Christopher muttered as he stood up of the cold ground, "So, why did you come here, you always have a reason guys" Christopher said looking at them in bemusement, "Oh, ya um dinners ready in dining room, Maria Elder told us to get you, and i nearly forgot!" Robert said

shoving his hand to the back of his neck.

come on Chris

wait up then!

Christopher and the others sped into the dining room, Christophers stomach was rumbling with grief for being so empty, the three took there seats and sat down, the chairs creaked a little and the wooden table seemed old, As Christopher was eating he pulled out the book his father game him before he had died, 'Harry P0tter and the philosopher's stone" it was written in a bold text with a beautiful cover, J.K Rowling was his favorite author, Christopher propped the book back down and took a spoon of his soup it wasn't like anything he had had before, but this was all he could afford to have at the times living in the subterrainal of Ireland.

He was only lucky today since sometimes, bits of dirt from the roof would fall of into the food, it was extremely irritating.

When Cristopher was done he went up to bed, he was followed by Robbert to the boys bedrooms, he and Robert were bunk mates, Christopher lay in bed and went to the page in his Harry P0tter book that had a three headed dog on it, he stared closely at it, though there were no pictures, he could just imagine it, his favorite character was Hagrid. "Rob, have you every wondered where that stream goes of to?" Christopher asked lying on his pillow comfortable, "i don't know Chris, i don't need to know ether." Rob replied cockily,

the next morning Christopher was missing...

"Where did he go!?" cried Rob as he walked down the hall with Luna, just yesterday we were talking in be-" Rob paused he had just realized something, his eyes widened with terror "What Robby" Luna began looking at him suspiciously, " we were... talking about the stream..." Robby began and his teeth started to clatter sharply. Luna's face completely went ghost white.

"w-what are we going to do now..." Luna asked scared

" it think there's only one option, we go after him" Rob said as he stared down into the cold water...

II

The outerworld

Christopher was rushing down the gushing water he was attempting to swim back, he felt like he had made a huge mistake...

Suddenly a huge white ring with a hole in it was appearing more clearly.

Suddenly Chris was thrown out of the huge ring and he crashed onto the surface with a huge thud

Christopher stood traumatized and in disbelief Mosters and dragons, were surrounding the land, and the air seemed so breathable, Christopher rubbed his eyes hard, to make sure he wasn't dreaming,

Had the Elder's been faking for all these years, Christopher rubbed his eyes again and again, how was this true he had been fooled. Christopher took the bag he had brought with him and opened it, 'the history of the underground' He wished he could through it away in anger. he flicked through the book...
