Chapter one.

The beginnings of the week are always the worst especially at this time of the year. It was December 1st and the build-up to Christmas started in October which was ridiculous! Halloween hadn't even passed yet. That morning there was a frost and because of the heavy rain the previous night the roads and pavements were incredibly icy which created a danger to those travelling to school or work. Sophie and Amy were both wrapped up; scarves, gloves, and hats you name it they were wearing it, the thick parka jackets gave a thicker layer which kept in the little heat their bodies generated. Sophie was taller than Amy though not by much, she had a small but strong frame and her hair had bright blue tips which matched her eye colour, Amy's petite frame suited her perfectly her long amber waves fell well beyond her shoulders and her eyes replicated the deep green of Emeralds. The two of them both shared the same Pale skin and the strangest of personalities which made them match perfectly.

The first time everything started to change was that same journey to college they both took every Monday to Friday, normally nothing change's they always walk down a path past an old peoples home which stunk or revolting food and the strong stench of soap. The two of them were laughing and joking about the past weekend, Amy had Sophie over and they took ridiculous photos of themselves, then there was walking around town looking like lunatics eating Greggs the usual stuff. It was Sophie who first noticed the flickering and this was why she stopped extending her arm to grab Amy's wrist,

"What was that?"

Her friend looked around turning her head back to face her "What was what?..."

Suddenly the world flickered again and the two of them froze wide eyed "That…" Amy moved closer to her friend constantly scanning their surroundings "Okay… I saw it that time" she paused turning her gaze onto Sophie "And to answer your question… I have no idea" After a few more moments of waiting the flickering seemed to stop and they carried on their walk to college as everything seemed to return to normal, thankfully.

"Amy…"

"Yeah?"

"Do you think we imagined that?"

"Well if we both saw it I would think not but then again you never know our imaginations are rather wild"

That was the end of the conversation as they both had lessons to go to so they could no longer talk until lunch. Amy walked into the art studios and sat down bringing one of her knees to her chest thinking about what just happened, so many things ran through her mind but most of them were impossible, an example of the ludicrous theory's was that Sophie and herself weren't actually awake it was all a dream that felt so real that they couldn't differ the conscious from the subconscious but to be realistic it was just an idea and dreaming about a place you really don't want to be its silly. About an hour later she was now in the computer room sat across the room from Sophie, she was doing Photography work and Amy was doing some Graphic design for her coursework which was always a delight, the pair of them started to feel that strange sensation that they had felt earlier on and just on cue everything flickered again, Sophie spun on her chair and Amy jumped off her seat and moved to her side in a few seconds

"It's happening again?!" Amy whispered in her ear being careful not to distract any of the other students,

"We can't be imagining this… It is just too real" Sophie looked up at her getting onto her feet,

"What do we do?..." the two seventeen year olds gazed around the room before rubbing their eyes blinking rapidly

"Water?" Amy nodded and followed her close friend out of the room walking down the corridor to the café picking up a plastic disposable cup and filling it with cold fresh water. Today's events have confused them and they were struggling to put pieces together because it had never happened before, to .

"Well it seems to have stopped… So…" Sophie forced a smile rubbing the back of her neck,

"Maybe were stressed, or sleep deprived?" No amount theories could or would make sense; it was too strange to come up with simple normal answers. The world around them was flickering and yet nobody else noticed it only they did which made things more complicated,

"We should head back" Sophie headed out the corridor walking close to her friend all they could do now was see how things played out it was the most rational thing to do. As they stepped through the door into the art design studios they stopped in their tracks dropping the cups onto the floor, everything seemed to be going in in slow motion as they watched the water hit the ground and the reason for that was the two revolting Orcs with blood stained blades standing in the centre of the room,

"Amy… Please… Tell me your seeing this…" her voice was a hushed tone so she wouldn't draw attention, carefully Sophie began to back away before Amy clutched her arm tightly,

"We can't just let them walk around, they could hurt someone…" That's if they weren't just disorientated and imagining all of this, but just as a precaution they needed to lead them away from public eye,

"I guess… Where too?"

"Anywhere but here" Sophie nodded gazing at her friend before they whistled simultaneously causing the two Orcs to snap their ugly heads in the two girl's direction. It came so quickly, the piercing roars caused Amy and Sophie to cover their ears hunching over slightly, all the commotion made all the students in one of the class room's curious and they all ran out the lecturer too, that just confirmed that now it wasn't just them who was seeing everything. The dark beasts turned and growled at the class and Amy looked around and she picked up a pot and threw it at one of the Orcs head causing it to turn and storm towards the two of them,

"Time to go"

"Yep!" Sophie and Amy turned at the same time running out of the room and down the corridor, glancing over their shoulders to see the two creatures in hot pursuit. They both ran out of the college, they were drawing attention now so they needed to get out of public areas quickly, and just to make things worse the flickering returned but it wasn't just that the ground and their surroundings began to shift and that took them off course making them plummet to the ground at quite a speed. Sophie hit the floor first shortly joined by Amy who landed right beside her,

"Owww" they both spoke in harmony as they rolled onto their backs seeing the two Orcs standing over them, the disgusting grey drool landing on their jeans and boots,

"Eww"

"Gross!"

The pair of them started to back away dragging themselves across the cold ground,

"The Prophecy will end before it begins"One of the beasts spat and the two girls on the ground looked at each other mouthing "Prophecy?" The flickering was strong now and the ground began to shake beneath them as the two Orcs grabbed the girls pulling them onto their feet, Sophie and Amy were terrified and the smell of the creatures breath caused them to shrivel away screwing up their noses,

" .Go!" Amy kicked the Orcs shin or where a shin should be anyway though her attempts were short lived as the only reaction she got from it was a punch in the stomach and a scream in her face. Sophie tried to help her friend but she couldn't squirm free.

"Amy… Look" Her friend gazed back at her before looking around, they couldn't believe what they were seeing everything surrounding them was now spinning out of control and the ground beneath them was shaking furiously

"Sophie!" Amy reached out for her friend and they clutched each-others hands in fear their eye contact never dropping from each of their faces "Are we going to…die…" Amy shook her head

"Don't think like that…"

"I don't know what else to think…We have Orcs holding us hostage…"

The two of them laughed nervously glancing over their shoulders as the tight grip on their waists and arms disappeared and as did the Orcs as Sophie snapped her gaze back onto her friend beside her,

"Where did they go…"

"I…I don't know.."

The scene around them started to change and they got the sensation that they were falling and when the surroundings steadied the found out that they were and fast

"Sophie!" their grip on each other's hand tightened as they screamed closing their eyes in preparation to hit the ground. After a few moments when they didn't crash into the ground and die they opened their eyes slowly and looked down seeing that they were hovering a few meters above the grassy earth,

"What the…" before Sophie could finish her sentence they both dropped suddenly landing in a heap "Hell…" a high pitched moan escaped them both as they sat up slowly rubbing the back of their heads Amy cautiously getting onto her feet to look around,

"Where the hell are we?..."

"Never mind that! What just happened?

"I have no idea… Like most of the things that have happened today"

The two of them just stood there for a few seconds before Amy started to walk across the empty plains trying to find shelter and answers,

"Where are you going?!" Sophie ran to catch up with her confusion was written all over her face

"We can't just stay in the open… It would like a lamb to the slaughter" She paused turning around "The first rule of survival?" Sophie brushed her choppy fringe off her fringe and sighed,

"Find shelter?" And with that they both began to walk into the distance hoping to find an old barn or a village to stay in.

I know I'm writing another story alongside this but I really wanted to write this just because I have so many ideas and I thought this would be the best way to use them up! Please review if you enjoyed it! Thank you! :D
