Summary

A team of Adam, Gerson and Jones (and a couple more in the end) discover the wonders of the dead world (void), wanting to get out using a golden switch inside the Volcano/Mountain. Join these guys into their (boring) adventure, that gets a bit deep in the end. It's a bit childish in the beginning. It will be more mature and character-rich from the 6-10 chapters. I'm still checking these for grammar mistakes, though. Have fun!

Chapter 1


The Starting

Long ago, The Red Volcano in Japan was ready to explode. The citizens ran away.

Most of them.

The commander’s eldest son couldn’t escape, but with a miracle he survived under a large rock.

The Void Land

But, He couldn’t find anyone, he was just seeing ashes of fire… Oh Wait! There was nothing there. He found That the Volcano hadn’t exploded, He couldn’t help except to yell for another one to hear him.

A new… Person?

And a Person shouted back, saying “Be quiet” in a terrifying voice. Adam was awfully scared, but he yelled back,

“Hey! Where are the others and how is the Volcano calm here? And who are you?”

The person laughed a strange laugh and said:

“You’re in a place I call the Void, Oh and my name is... is… (Wait what is my name? The person said)”

“You don’t remember your name? And what is a Void? Adam Asked”

“Ah… I forgot my name just call me (Person), and the Void is just a place where you’re not from (obviously) Person said.”

“OK… Person but where are you? I am literally shouting so I can talk to you. Adam said”

“Look behind you. Person said”

“WHA- where did you come from?! Adam said”

“I was always here. Person Said”

Adam is being silent because he doesn’t know what to say.

No Ways

Adam is asking some more questions…

“So…. How do I exit this, Void? Adam asked”

“I am not sure, I was just stuck here for the last (probably, approximately) 200 years, the people said there is no way out... Person Said.”

A legend

“Well, the people who live in the void says that there will be a Legend, who will save us all from this mess.”

“Oh! Did I forget to tell you, inside the volcano there is a large switch, but the Volcano has a lot of dangers. No one dared to go there”

Then some bullies from the Void came.

“Hey! Talking about the legend, Ha! You idiot! Said one of the bullies”

“I don’t care. said Person.”

“Ha! Well, that will never happen. You know that! WE HAVE BEEN STUCK HERE FOR (approximately, probably) 200 YEARS!”

“It will happen!! Said Person”

ADVENTURE!!

“WELL, I WILL GO THERE!!!! Said Adam”

“What?! Said Person AND The Bullies”

“You are kidding, right? Said Person”

“No! I will go THERE I am encouraged to do this!”

Their (the bullies) way of talking suddenly changed and told him,

“Come with us…”

They took me to a FAR away castle. The Castle was much larger than you think.

“What are we doing here? Said Adam”

“We always wished that someone would be brave enough to go there, and by the way why is your friend following us?”

“That guy You call ‘Person’.”

Adam looked behind him, He saw Person.

“WHAT- If y-you did that again I might have a heart attack.”

Person Laughs slowly.

“Okay, Okay… I won’t do it again. (probably)”

The King Jousef

“Anyways, we reached the Castle, Here, talk to the king.”

Adam entered and found a King sitting in the Golden Chair.

“Uh… Hello? Mr. What’s your name, sorry?”

“My name is Jousef.”

So? What?

“So, You want to go there, Inside the dangerous Volcano? The King Said”

“Yeah, I don’t want to be stuck here for my entire life! Adam Said”

“Thank you, we will give you all types of weapons, armors, food, and someone to help you, because we need two to enter the Volcano, And the young man can help you. The King Said”

“The young Man? Do you mean Person?”

“Yeah, He means me. I’m not sure if I am a young man though. Person said”

Inside

The Volcano Looked dangerous, but it has no lava, to make it look like a Mountain.

“Take this Torch, it will help you walk in the dark. Said the King”

“OK, And Person, Are you ready? Said Adam”

“Yes, I am.”

They walked inside the Volcano, nothing seemed dangerous, Until…

Strange Poisonous spiders attacked them. It wasn’t a great Danger, since they had food and medicine. So, they passed the Spiders with No wounds.

First impressions

“This Place isn’t that hazardous, isn’t it Person?”

“I am afraid I am not agreeing with you, because we didn’t stay more than 1 hour, The Trip takes days between enemies and puzzles-”

It was a dead end. They looked behind them to go back, but it was also a dead end………

The First Threat

What they found Around them was a simple Sentence written in the stone... Saying: ‘If the Switch is your goal, then say what is between The Sky and the land.’

“Huh? What is between the two? Adam said”

“That’s a puzzle. Said Person”

“Huh, what is between them...?”

“Quick! The walls are getting closer to us! Said Person”

“Wait! It’s the word (and)! Adam Said”

The walls were removed in a second, they were safe to continue the journey.

Violent beings

They continued walking, hoping to find something interesting.

“Ugh!!!! How big is this Volcano!! Adam Said”

“As large as you can’t think. Person Said”

“I have another question, Person. How did I even get stuck here?”

“That is what people here have been thinking of since the first human was stuck here.”

Then some beings that looked like crabs attacked them. Adam used the sword the king gave him…

First battle

A fight started, but there’s already a lot of them, and Person was too tired to fight, he just helped Adam with his knowledge of the legend. These beings were too strong for Adam to fight them. So, Adam and Person ran away quickly.
