CAROLMIRE PROPHECY

“It began when the aliens mysteriously ranked us all BlackStar

They claim our constant dancing meant we’d never make it far

We were bright and energetic, with music in us all the time

Yet somehow that is why we failed, our energy our only crime

The key to the mystery is what is found under the broken clock

Once you find what is hidden, the secret you will begin to unlock

So it came then, we had to leave the school we’d made our own

They sent us to live in the freezing cold , isolated and alone

The aliens claim we are a cancer to the world; we have no right

We are allowed to live by mining for them the glowing crystal light

We always live in the cold darkness, the time of winter stays still

So in the night our citizens keep a candle lit on their window sill

We only see dim light during the day, and it’s so dark at night

Yet we are miners so we know how to find the distant light

We celebrate Christmas once a month, so our city is always bright

We play music all the time, singing in the streets, an awesome sight

On every Christmas Eve we sing Silent Night while gazing at the sky

Then for one week we stay at home letting our fires rise so high

We’ll never forget the night we saw him, climbing in the dead night

He was heading for the aliens hidden secret-their green light

On a silent night we finally had hope our dark fight would be won

We’ll never tell the aliens that we know his name is Cade Mayson”

WHAT ARE THE GHOSTS SINGING? PART 2

“They saw us, the ghosts, I mean. The windows turned bright green like on fire. Dark ghostly figures flew out of the windows. The dark spirits were after us.

Blake turned to me and said, ‘Cade, we’ve got to move, now.’ We ran along the ridge. We started to pass the empty ghost city up close. We passed dark, rotting, broken towers with empty streets curving in and out through the city. It was chilling silence except we heard several ghosts in the distance groaning, like in circles, getting louder and louder, then quieter and quieter. I turned back momentarily. I saw dark flashes on the trail along the ridge. Blake pointed to the shadowy forest in the valley below. I said, ‘That’s too scary.’

He looked at me like I was crazy and asked, ‘That’s more scary than being chased by dark spirits?’ I thought about it for a moment while we sprinted ahead. I nodded, ‘Yeah. They may be haunted.’

He was like, ‘Come on, Cade.’ He knows how I joke. He was getting kind of irritated, so I told him I had a plan which was mostly true. Bright red clouds crashed directly over us, thundering like an explosion. They cut through the black towers with dark blue stained glass windows. I started to hear singing again, ghosts singing, the same haunting song as before, swaying up and up, then down. Their voices were really hollow and sad. They echoed across the empty streets.

Blake turned to me and said, ‘They’re getting close.’ We started hearing their fast-paced whispers. Chilling winds started pulling at us from behind. ‘If you have a plan, now would be a good time,’ I heard Blake say. I took out my blue shell that flashes a blue light with my shadow. It’s hard to explain. ‘When I count to ten, break right.’

‘Why do you have to count to ten?’

‘So we go at the same time.’

‘Then just say, ‘Break right.’ You don’t have to count.’

‘If I don’t count, you won’t be ready.’

‘Yeah I will. I’ll see the light flash and that’s when we go. I’m not stupid.’

‘I didn’t say you were stupid.’

‘I didn’t say you did.’ I glanced back. I saw dark hands reaching towards us. ‘Ready now,’ I said. I let the light flash. I dove and slid all the way down the hill while Blake sprinted down. I looked up. The dark shadows disappeared over the ridge. Me and Blake celebrated. We tried one of those chest bumps, but I went too high and he went too low and we both went down. Then we started jogging around the rest of the ghost city.

It was really quiet even with the ghosts’ singing. I gazed up at the aliens’ flag they raise high over every city. It’s blue with a white number one in the center, that always glows softly in the moonlight. I hate it. They raised it over our city and our school. They think it’s all theirs now. I saw faces in the windows, just staring at us. They had different expressions that were just frozen like that, but I heard them whispering to us. Then we stopped cold. The clouds parted overhead. Breaking moonlight lit up a ghost in hazy green. We could barely see him. He was sitting out on a bench just staring out into the empty street.

He said in a low, hollow voice, ‘They never saw me. They never saw me. I should have been seen, but they never saw me.’ I looked and saw his shirt glowing softly on his shoulders where I saw he had a BlackStar patch. Me and Blake hurried ahead. The slow rhythmic booming started up again, growing louder and louder. The ghosts’ sad song grew quieter but more clear. We were almost at the edge about to break away into the hills back to Dayces Cameron. Then Blake asked the question I didn’t want to ask.

‘What if this is where the BlackStar Students live when they die?’ I would discover the answer to that question much later, and it shocked me. We turned the last corner. Dark shadows fell away behind us. The dark spirits would be back soon. Then we saw it; a massive clock glowing green against the red sky. The haunting song echoed around it, going around and around. I could finally hear what they were singing, over and over, the same lines, over and over and over.”

“The clock is ticking, they wait for their time to lean

The dark ghosts are singing, their desperate hope to be seen”

WHAT ARE THE GHOSTS SINGING? PART 1

JOURNALS OF CADE MAYSON

The clock is ticking, they wait for their time to arrive to lean

The dark ghosts are singing, their desperate hope…

When the aliens invaded our kingdoms, they took power over our school. Now all of us students have rankings. Their standards are really high. Their tests…don’t get me started on those. I’m one of the BlackStar Students, the lowest ranking, meaning we’re failing. They watch us in class you know. I guess you don’t know that’s why I’m telling you. Me and my friend Blake got in trouble yesterday.

It was during a math lesson that was well into the THIRD hour. Let’s have a moment of silence for that. Aaaaannndddd, okay, moment’s over. We tried staying still but we were so bored, so we played Crazy Catch. For those of you who don’t know, it’s a game where you throw a marble as hard as you can and the other kid tries to catch it. You get points for making him drop it and the crazier the catch the more points you get, you know, the one who catches it. Catching on? Sorry. Anyway, Blake threw it so high I had to jump up from my desk, I caught it right between my two fingers, then I had to kind of roll and spring back up and quickly dive back to my chair. Somehow, they saw me. We had after school detention for a week cleaning the halls and dishes, way too many dishes.

One night me and Blake went exploring in the hills to the west of our City, Dayces Cameron. We found dark towers the aliens were building. People say they are building them for ghosts. We see bizarre lights in the windows sometimes. It was a cold night. Bright red clouds were rushing across the sky in three directions. We stayed low, in the shadows, so we wouldn’t be seen. That’s when we heard it, the singing, ghostly singing.

They sang this sad, haunting song, the melody going up, then down, then up again, then down, over and over kind of bouncing. As we got closer we heard this booming in a slow rhythm with the singing, this low boom, one after another, really slow. We saw a really bright greenish-gold light mysteriously lighting part of the City, but the rest of the towers were under the darkest shadows I’ve ever seen. We got closer and we heard someone groaning, really loud, just on and on and on. The song began to fill up the entire city, echoing between every tower in the still dead shine. The slow booms kept going with the one voice groaning. He sounded incredibly sad. Finally we understood some of what they were singing. They kept singing the same two lines over and over again:

The clock is ticking, they wait for their time to arrive to lean

The dark ghosts are singing, their desperate hope…

Then we saw a tall bluff closer to the towers, so of course we climbed up. Blake scrambled up, but I got a running start and shot right up those rocks in only three jumps! That’s when we saw them, their faces, staring out with sad, empty gazes…directly at us…”

WHAT DID THE ALIENS REALLY TAKE FROM CADE?

Cade feels like the aliens stole his school and took away the cool, fun experiences they used to have. But that’s not the only thing they stole from him…

A secret enemy will reveal themselves from the sky

They will claim to have standards that are so high

But what will they take from the student on fire?

It begins with where their dreams went higher

School should be a place to be creative and explore

They will turn the most exciting subject into a dreadful bore

A new idea was discovered by Brandon Cavormay

Students could succeed by learning their own way

Nick and Damian encountered someone with mysterious power

They did not realize he had arrived in high secret at the critical hour

Their ideas will be just the beginning, the first fiery spark

The two candles will burn bright for him to see in the dark

Cade Mayson will be determined to begin the fight

He will be on a personal mission to recover the lights

He will refuse to believe he is truly alone

Instead he will look for secret clues to be shone

He runs like a lightning bolt shooting through the night

His fingers fly across the piano keys playing so bright

He will stare straight across the city at them with fire in his eyes

They will be in shock, staring in disbelief, the enemy from the skies

He will be the one to take the revolution so far

This will be the new way to succeed, called DadeStar

There is a secret yet to be revealed only found in the enemy’s hold

Sometimes it is best for the active tropical forest to go cold

He will discover the shocking truth of why they’re here

He’ll find a way for the students to stand against them without fear

When the blue moonlight shines for all of them to see

This student, Cade Mayson, will dream of setting them free

Are you starting to figure out the answer to the great mystery-how can these aliens be defeated? But there’s an even greater mystery that Cade must solve that will be revealed soon. The clues are there; can you figure out what his mystery is?

WHAT DREW THE ALIENS HERE?

“YOU MAY BE THE ONLY LIGHT THEY EVER SEE”

I’ll never forget where I was when I first saw the lights. I was out in the river wash west of Cashes Dade playing hide and seek with my friend Blake. He’s in the Sixth Grade with me. This is classified, so don’t tell anyone we were playing out there, it’s a secret. You see, the river wash is a massive field with many of these narrow valleys where at any moment fast raging waves just roll through before going back out to the river. I know, I know, it’s kind of sort of dangerous, but it’s not as risky as it sounds. You just have to be ready, like all the time, otherwise at any moment you might get swept up in the rush.

We’ll get back to Cade in a second. This is the first mystery. What drew the aliens to this land? What could it be? In every mystery in this series; in each book and post, the clues are always there. Leave a comment below if you think you know. Can you figure it out?

Anyway, I was hiding behind the haunted stones. I saw Blake getting close. He’s fast, but I’m fast and stealthy. I shot out like a lightning flash…Blake says they’re not haunted, but I know they are. They glow when the sun sets and no, it’s not just the light reflecting. You see, I’ve also seen them light up…sorry, that’s not the point. What was I saying? Oh yeah, so I ran past and scrambled up some large stones. It took me only 3 jumps. That’s a new record! I did. Seriously. I really did.

Anyway, that’s when I saw the flash. The entire sky lit up in this green flash like a slow explosion. Then the rush came. I heard this loud boom like a cannon taking up the entire sky. It pushed me back. That’s when I saw them, these triangle shapes lit up in bluish-gold lights like they were on fire. Then, I didn’t know what they were, but I do now. It’s a night I’ll never forget, the night the aliens invaded our Kingdoms. Then, they invaded our schools…
