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...

Hans and Hilda

Once upon a time there was an old miller who had two children who were twins. The boy-twin was named Hans, and he was very greedy. The girl-twin was named Hilda, and she was very lazy. Hans and Hilda had no mother, because she died whilst giving birth to their third sibling, named Engel, who had been sent away to live wtih the gypsies. Hans and Hilda were never allowed out of the mill, even when the miller went away to the market. One day, Hans was especially greedy and Hilda was especially lazy, and the old miller wept with anger as he locked them in the cellar, to teach them to be good. "Let us try to escape and live with the gypsies," said Hans, and Hilda agreed. While they were looking for a way out, a Big Brown Rat came out from behind the log pile. "I will help you escape and show you the way to the gypsies' campl," said the Big Brown Rat, "if you bring me all your father's grain." So Hans and Hilda waited until their father let them out, ...
