The Advice Doll

The Advice Doll Prologue The archeologists stared in wonder as the last of the dust was brushed away. Before them was a china doll, not unlike the ones sold in stores today. The features were perfect; the face was almost the exact shape of a human head and the eyes were perfect replicas of a real eye. Only one question remained, how was it so perfect when it was created almost a ten thousand years ago? Chapter 1 She was bound and gagged and about to be force fed poison. She was the most scared she had been in her life. That night she had already almost died three times and really wasn’t looking forward to the fourth. She had been come at with a knife, shot at, and almost choked to death. All this adventure didn’t suite her and she was almost glad she was gagged because it kept her from throwing up on herself. She was tied up to some girl she didn’t recognize who had been so brave in the face of danger that she almost believed they would get out alive. Almost. Then suddenly the girl turned towards her and said “You can get us out of here, just concentrate and you’ll be fine.” So- even though it seemed hopeless she concentrated with all her might and suddenly was standing outside her house and almost fainted with relief. She was home. Then the girl turned and said “Remember just concentrate,” and turned to leave, then “Alex it’s time to get up, come on lazy bones you’ve got to get ready for school.”Alex awoke with a start. She had been reliving Thursday night for almost a weak now and it was getting old. She had decided against telling her parents knowing they would just laugh and think she was joking. The thing was, Alex had felt different since then. She didn’t feel bad, just… different. Stronger somehow. She really hoped that the girl she had been with was the one that had made them appear in front of her house because if not, that meant Alex was a magician, and magicians weren’t allowed in the great and magical city of Hudol. Also ironically enough, it was only magicians not allowed in Hudol. Even though all the machines and everything were magical. Everything from televisions to pretzel carts was enchanted, but for some reason they didn’t want magicians. In fact it was against the law to be a magician. Everyone in the city wondered how everything was enchanted without magicians but didn’t really care. Now however Alex was extremely curious about the matter. She really hoped she wasn’t a magician. . . . . . If Lexy doesn’t hurry up we’re going to miss the bus Alex thought frustrated. That little sister of hers was always messing things up. Why couldn’t she have a sister that could be her best friend? She suspected being adopted had something to do with it. Then of course the big thing getting in the way of them forming that sort of relationship was how different they both were! Lexy was the most popular kid in school, she was, it and she looked the part! She was everybody’s hero. She was copied by everyone in the fourth grade and the little kids would crowed her for an autograph. But Alex, Alex had to be the least popular kid in the history of unpopular kids! She was the smartest kid in the whole school, but that just got her laughed at. She was very pretty but the only good that did was keep her from getting her head flushed in the toilet. But despite all that she was very quick witted and had the eyesight of an eagle. You put one toe out of line around her and lickety-split you’re at the teacher desk. This had gotten her a job as trouble catcher, it was her job to catch people doing things they shouldn’t. Perhaps this is why Mrs. Keeter’s fifth grade class was the best well behaved class in the school, but we’ll get back to them later. Finally Lexy got her back pack and they started walking to their buststop. When they got there as usual people crowded Lexy and Alex pulled out a book. Then, trouble arrived. “Hey Keller (because this was Alex’s last name), I’ve got a bone to pick with you!” Peter, the school’s worst bully, yelled. “Really Peter?” Alex wearily asked. “Do we really have to fight today?” Peter continued as if he had not heard her. “You told Mrs. Keeter about me sticking nerd face Johnson’s head in the toilet, that I take as unforgivable.” “Yeah,” his posse sneered “unforgivable.” “You know I could beat the snot out of you any old day.” Alex answered the challenge with a growl. “Yeah, that’s likely,” Peter growled back “If you couldn’t beat the snot out of the weakest person alive!” “Maybe not, but that’s because I’m a civilized human being!” “Civilized!” Sputtered Peter. “More like you’re a weakling.” He’s trying to get me to back down so I’ll prove him right! Well I’m not going to back down. I’m sick of people treating me like an insignificant little slug, and I’m not going down without a fight! Her better judgment was telling her to back down but a feeling like none she had never known before had lit up inside her. It overpowered her better judgment and gave her a sense of recklessness, so she said “Bring it on!” And the match began. Almost as soon as they started to fight, Alex started winning. She threw a punch and made him fall to the ground then without warning he tripped her and knocked the wind out of her. “Surrender?” Peter sneered, though slightly out of breath himself. “Never!” Alex hissed “Then let’s get on with it!” Once again Alex brought Peter to the ground and this time didn’t give him a chance to trip her. Holding him down with one arm she punched him till he was begging for her to stop. Never stopping holding him down she said with a smirk, “Did I win?” Very quietly he hissed “Yes, for now.” When she let him up he took his posse to the farthest spot away from her at the bus stop, where they just stood, there glaring at her. The whole time the rest of the bus stop was just staring at her awestruck, until one of the littler kids walked up and nervously whispered “Thank you.” Alex looked down and saw the tiny cute little girl that Peter always bullied. She then kindly asked “What’s your name?” The little kid then said in barely more than a whisper “Juliet” She looked down shamefacedly as though she had stolen something very valuable and needed someone to tell. So Alex, being the good-natured person that she was, said “What’s wrong?” “I stole the name; it belongs to the Juliet from Shakespeare.” Alex laughed and said “There’s nothing to be worried about, lots of people are named Juliet, in fact I wouldn’t be surprised if Shakespeare himself stole the name Juliet from someone in his time.” Chuckling at the surprised look on Juliet’s face she pulled out her book and started reading it. Just then the bus came and Alex completely forgot about the little girl Juliet, but from that moment on Alex was a hero in the little girl’s eyes. . . . . When they got to school everyone that was at the bus stop started telling everybody in the school about the fight between Alex and Peter, and how Alex had totally whooped him. For a week people kept looking at Alex with a certain respect for the first time in their lives. Not only kept that but people coming to hear the real version, which she would have to tell. For the first time in her life people were talking to her but not making fun of her. She found she preferred getting ignored or made fun of as she could hardly get to class on time with people pestering her for details. Finally the weekend came and she was hoping against hope that everybody would find some knew gossip to talk about. She sat down exhausted and pulled out her favorite book. She had only read a few pages when she was startled by a knock on the door. When she opened the door she found herself facing little Juliet. “I just thought I’d come by and see if I could hang out with you today” she muttered nervously. Trying to recover from the surprise of seeing Juliet at the door she said “Um, sure. I mean come in.” “We got our report cards today” Juliet said sounding a little more confident in herself than normal. “ Us to, I got all A’s.” “Me to. I was watching the discovery channel and saw that archeologists found a china doll so very perfect. With features replicating humans so well the archeologists couldn’t help but start asking each other questions. Especially when it was created ten thousand years ago.” The conversation was starting to spike her interest but Alex was also starting to have a feeling that Juliet hadn’t come for no reason and that she was approaching the subject she had come to discuss. Juliet was saying “But when they started asking questions about how it could have happened the doll started answering them. The doll said stuff about a great inventor named Willoln Saceran who created amazing things impossible to understand unless you were the creator. He had created the doll to explain to future generations about things that they wouldn’t have known without it.” Alex’s interest was really high up on the scale now. So she said “Let’s see if there’s something on about the doll on right now.” And with that she turned on the TV and flipped to the discovery channel where a special about the doll was just starting. “Experts of archeology carefully took a piece of the doll off and discovered gears and wires underneath the surface. The doll is currently on display at the museum Archeologists Hangout where many finds of archeologists are today.” Alex’s looked from the TV to Juliet with a glint in her eyes, and then she said “Do you think we could bike over there?” Worriedly Juliet said “I don’t know, if you came with me probably.” “Don’t worry; I wouldn’t miss this for all the money in the world. I’ll go get money for a tour.” . . . . . When they arrived at the museum the tour guide said “What do you know about the doll already?” “I know that it is supposed to be able to answer any question.” Juliet said, surprising everyone that a little kid would know about the doll. “And that it was named the advice doll by the archeologist who found it.” “Well I’ll be darned,” Alex exclaimed. “When did you find out so much about the doll?” Juliet gave a sly little smile and said “let’s just say I'm a very smart girl." The tour guide shook himself out of shock and told them it was time to go see the doll. The moment they saw the doll Alex new it wasn't safe. The doll shouldn't be out in the open like this, not only that, but she also knew the doll itself was dangerous. She raised her hand and asked how the doll was protected. The tour guide gulped and stuttered " Well, that's the problem isn't it, the lock is stuck in locked position and our security system is malfunctioning. So all that is protecting the doll is glass, a lock ,and a rookie security guard." he started sobbing "We know it won't be long before someone steals it , but we don't know what to do, we are afraid to brake the glass because it might hurt the doll! So we are stuck." the tour guide was positively hysterical now. "We need help, but the manager won't admit it, he's going to get the doll stolen! After this tour I'm going to go lay it down on him hard, I'll go on strike to get this doll some much better security and go hungry before I'll let her be stolen!" He looked around defiantly with tears streaming down his face, daring any of us to judge, but we all just nodded approvingly, then I noticed one guy that I had seen around the shady part of town wearing a satisfied look on his face I knew immediately that this guy meant trouble. He was probably going to steal the doll that very night! . . . . . After the tour finished I told Juliet that I thought we should follow the man and she said she thought we should too. We followed him to the abandoned house down 237th street, where he stopped so suddenly that we almost bumped into him. I was trying so desperately hard to not breathe loudly that I didn't notice him take out the sack until it was too late. When I looked up I saw a sack rushing toward me and a saw black. I felt my hands being bound and decided to keep quiet, maybe we could learn something about these guys. Chapter 2 The first thing I saw when the sack was lifted off my head was an official looking man who looked like he meant business. “So these little girls followed you?” his sounded so angry that she wasn’t surprised to see the man they had followed flinch, before quickly regain his composure, this guy was quite obviously the big boss or at least someone very high up in ranks. “And may I ask how they managed to follow you so far without you seeing them?” “Well Mr. Zorn, I did notice them so I led them to a different part of town before carting them over here“. He said all this with his eyes flashing like he didn’t appreciate being reprimanded by Zorn. “I am well aware that you had the best intentions Fitar, but why did you not just kill them? Surely it would have been better than dragging them here and being late?” the man called Zorn looked at Fitar, whose face was masklike at the question. “I mean, you are wasting our valuable time just by bringing them here.” “Zorn, you know full well that I would not have brought them here if I didn’t have a good reason.” He was staring at Zorn with so much loathing that it was quite obvious that he was sharing a room with an enemy that he was only working with because he had to. “Look at the little girl; doesn’t she look familiar to you? If not, your mind is going early.” Alex looked from man to man, having no idea what they were talking about, so instead she looked at Juliet to see how she was doing and was shocked to see that her face was filled with so much hatred, fear, and, familiarity that Alex was suddenly wondering if she had excepted Juliet way to easily. Then she decided to worry about it later and turned her attention back to the two men. The man called Fitar had just finished speaking and Alex realized that Zorn was coming to inspect them she struggled to looked like she had been dazed but apparently she was unsuccessful as he looked at her his lip curled and he said “we probably shouldn’t have spoken so freely with you in the room, but no matter you aren’t going to get out of this alive.” Then he turned to Juliet and as he looked closer his eyes widened and he said “o ho ho ho… if it isn’t Juliet, the little obstacle that has been giving us so much trouble. Did you know that Todes has offered a ten million dollar reward to whoever captures you? No? You didn’t? Well I can’t say I’m surprised, you haven’t been looking at the reward posters have you, and so you won’t draw attention to yourself.” All she could do was sit there and watch as Juliet’s obvious horror grew. Then she caught herself and wiped her face free of emotion before replying “You talk big for such a little man, Zorn did you like the way I almost killed you? How is the arm healing up?” Zorn clutched the arm and now that the shock had worn off Alex realized what the two men looked like; Zorn was a short little man that had wavy black hair, he had brown eyes that if he had been a good guy probably would have twinkled kindly. He would actually been good looking if it wasn’t for his expression, even now when he was making an effort to keep his face in a cruel smile, his face had a downward shift, like he spent most of his time scowling. Fitar looked, different. He had wavy blond hair, that didn’t match his dark skin. He didn’t seem to have any pupils for the whole of his iris was black. His tall body was enhanced by large muscles and on his shirt was a clearly defined six pack. She immediately knew that this was not someone to get in a fight with. His features were so tight with anger that she had difficulty deciding what his most common expression was. After studying his face for a while she decided that he was a sneering person. A sudden question was hurled at her so quickly she was momentarily lost for words. “What are you doing in all of this? What part do you play?” “I ddon’t know wwhat your tttalking abbout” she stammered. “She’s the one. Does that scare you Fitar? She could turn you into a frog and then have you dumped into a volcano if she wanted.” Juliet was getting cocky. Zorn suddenly sneered, “Maybe she could if we didn’t have symbols engraved in our skin that protected us from her magic. Oh and I don’t suppose you’ve had time to tell her about this have you? Or for that matter train her.” Juliet paled, Alex could tell that she had been counting on them not knowing that she hadn’t trained her, and that made Alex wonder, what was she supposed to have been trained to do? Juliet turned to her looking desperate, “Remember what I told you? Concentrate on what you need to happen and it will happen, and right now we need to escape.” Alex felt so scared she could hardly put a coherent thought together, let alone concentrate. “I know it’s difficult, but you have to if we are going to escape.” When Alex still looked dazed Juliet sighed and slapped her. That pulled her together. She took a shaky breath and thought with all of her might about being up in her room with Juliet, and nothing happened.

My Hair

Everybody, you will never believe this, but I cut my hair. And I'm not talking trimmed a little off the edges, I'm talking like 8 or 9 inches. My mom put my hair in a loose pony tail and chopped it off. Then she did the fine tuning. This is what she cut off.

Now just to add suspense I'll show you a before picture before you get to see the new hair of Julia Allen (I also want to let you see just how drastic the change is).

Now the reveal. The end result......

(My spacing is acting funny).

Reality's Chorus

You know how in my last post I said that that I hadn't written the chorus yet? Well, I have now. Here it is. Tell me what you think. :)

Reality destroyed me,
reality destroyed you,
with everything thats going on,
I'm not sure what to do.
Everything I see,
is starin' right back,
everything I see,
is pullin' me off track,
I think it's part of I learned,
but why does it have to hurt,
so much.
Reality is part of me,
but I'm not exactly sure how,
reality is part of me,
but scince I didn't know,
the feeling is wow.

Don't forget to tell me what you think.

My Song Reality

You know my song Reality? Well if not it is a song I have been writing and I wanted to write the update for it. Tell me what you think of the lyrics.

Never in a million years did I say,
that you could play along with me,
just show me to reality,
stop hide'n the world from my eyes,
is it such a big suprise,
let me show you what I can be,
now show me to reality,
now it's time for me to go,
but before I do let me show,
you what I am inside me,
when I'm in reality.
Now I'm out in the world,
and I feel like a ball being hurled,
out of the bondage of a hand,
finally I'm on land,
free to do as I please,
instead of being on my knees,
instead of being changed to the floor,
I'm free to walk,
out the door,
I was barked up the wrong tree,
but now I'm in the real reality.....

(the chorus would be here but I haven't written it yet. :)

My life took an angry turn,
and I'm not sure what I learned,
I don't know what to do here,
so now I'm full up of fear,
I'm not sure what to do,
'cause reality tears right through you,
I feel afraid and confused,
but I also feel used,
as impossible as it seems.
reality tears right through me,
now I know just what to do,
I know just how to move,
I know just what the moves to make are,
I know just what the moves to fake are,
now I understand it,
'cause reality is a bandit,
it stole my life from me,
do I want it back?
Yes please.....

The chorus would be right there and then an new verse, but I haven't written either. I just wrote the new verse half an hour before blogging. So tell me, do you like it?
