School of Wizardry-Part 7 (Trouble)


TROUBLE

Prologue
The small town of Portsville might not be so sleepy after all. Let's see what perils might lie ahead...

Chp1: Practice advanced level spells
Uncle Mortimer is so impressed with your rapid advancement that he has started teaching you spells that would normally take years to master. Some of the spells might be quite useful in the near future.

Chp2: Gather some gossip from the non-wizards in town
Uncle Mortimer has a special mission for you - use some of his invisibility powder to listen in on gossip in the town square. Word is that the local non-wizards have noticed strange things lately like unusual creatures at night. On top of that, two people have gone missing in the last month.

Chp3: Plan against an attack from some evil wizards
An informant tells the Elder Wizards that a small sect of evil wizards practicing black magic plan on entering the human world through the Gateway. Although the Gateway is heavily guarded by Elder Wizards in the wizard world and watched closely on the human side, you go with your Uncle to an emergency meeting.

Chp4: Keep watch outside of the meeting hall while the Elder Wizards meet
You, Leanna, and Morgan have been assigned to keep watch outside of the meeting hall. You don't recognize most of the wizards that come in. There's an incantation to make the meeting hall invisible to non-wizards, but those are not who you're concerned about!

Chp5: Take care of Big Jimmy and his posse
Big Jimmy and his friends are loitering outside the convenience store across the street. They see you and immediately walk over to come pick on you. You don't have the time to deal with them since you have to keep watch. You flick your wand from under your jacket and make their clothes disappear! Shocked and confused, they immediately run down the street covering up as best as they can. You can't stop laughing with Morgan and Leanna.

Chp6: Practice advanced dueling with Leanna and Morgan
Realizing that you can't be spotted by non-wizards while in your robes, you immediately put them on after the Big Jimmy incident. You and your friends take turns dueling while the third keeps watch.

Chp7: Check out a strange glow coming from the end of the alley way
You notice a strange flash of light out of the corner of your eye. You head down the alley with Morgan and Leanna to investigate. There's a greenish smoke. Wizards must have just transported in using magic as the green smoke is a sure sign of wizard apparition.

Chp8: Take cover from the explosion!
You hear a large bang and see a large flash of lightning as the doors fly off City Hall. You see smoke and more flashes of light. You catch of a glimpse of your unconscious Uncle being carried off by three shadowy figures.

A Wish Come True (A Short Story)

I woke up with a start when I found myself in a very unfamiliar place. The bed I was lying on was grand—an English-quilting blanket and 2 soft pillows with flowery laces. The whole place was fit for a king! Suddenly the door opened and there stood my dream prince: Katsuya Kimura! I gasped in astonishment for he was actually a cartoon character. I did not know that he really exist. “Wake up, dear,” he said and pulled off the blanket and handed it to a woman who looked like the maid. “You will be late for work.” “Work?” I asked. “Yes! Work! Have you forgotten your own comic workhouse, baby dear?” Comic workhouse?! I…I have became a cartoonist? That was my wildest dreams! Being a cartoonist! I undressed and changed into my beige T-shirt and black trousers at once and hurriedly finished my breakfast. Katsuya drove me to the workhouse. My, my, was it big! I’ve never seen a bigger place than this! Katsuya kissed me and said, “See you at four, OK, baby?” I blushed scarlet. I always wan...

To A Beautiful Person

If God had a refrigerator, your picture would be on it. If He had a wallet, your photo would be in it. He sends you flowers every spring. He sends you a sunrise every morning. Whenever you want to talk, he listens. He can live anywhere in the universe, but he chose... your heart. Face it friend, He is crazy about you! God didn't promise days without pain, laughter without sorrow, sun without rain, but He did promise strength for the day, comfort for the tears, and light for the way.

Choking on Ink

My grandmother told me when she was in high school an old math teacher in his 60’s named Harold Davidson was teaching math and one of his students wouldn’t stop tapping his pen during class.  The teacher went berserk and lost his mind. He snatched the pen and attacked the kid, lodging the pen down the child’s throat while his classmates looked on screaming. While struggling, the kid kicked the teacher in the chest with the little energy he had left. The teacher collapsed and they both died at the same time. When school was back in session and math class began with the new teacher, the class noticed that a weird symbol appeared on the chalk board. The symbol had lines inside of a circle. All the lines within the circle were the common math symbols = + x and division.  If you outline certain parts of the symbol it looks as if a pacman shape has a line going through its mouth or maybe a head getting choked with a pen. The teacher asked who drew it but no one came f...
