Scrawling 14: Silly old Scrawlings

So a couple of years ago when I was still silly and in high school, a friend of mine and myself co-wrote but never finished this very silly story. I thought it was about time I'd share it since I highly doubt we will ever finish it anyway. So yes there will be a strange and sudden transition in the writing style in the storyline in general because we were sort of just writing it without even thinking or discussing. The pattern is that I start then he wrote the next part and you can probably tell after while who wrote what. I won't even edit it or re-write anything because that's just the fun of it. To be honest I haven't even read this ever since I just remember it being silly. And ninja obsessed as we were.
So here it goes, hope it gives you a laugh like it did us.


Once upon a time I was walking in the street, the sun was scorching hot. I hear a noise, a bang, it came from above. I look up at the sky ,one hand over my forehead shading the sun, eyes squinted. I see something in a distance, it looked like it was going to fall on the floor quite far from where I was standing. I start running while looking up to see how close its gotten. Something big, very big, fell on the floor. I stop and try to catch my breath, sucking air through gritted teeth. Then I look down to the thing that just fell on the floor. It was a box. I stared and stared at it. I was not sure whether or not I should open it, let alone even pick it up. I decide to pick it up and take it home. What could be in the box that made such a loud bang? Curiousity takes over and I finally open the box. In the box, there were 2 smaller boxes next to eachother. One of them was green and labelled E, the other red and labelled J.
There was also a letter in the box.
I didnt open the letter but decided to show the box to someone else. The first person to cross my mind was a friend that goes by the name Jacob-Lee.
I go to Jacob-Lee and tell him all about the box and he says..............
     Jacob-Lee says, Wow what has the world come to? Boxes falling out of the Sky, Naww? Then continues; the green E must of of been intended for the person whos attracted to Green. That smaller box wad ment for that indivisual person. So 'she' should open it. Obviously Jacob-Lee wants the Red object, since it has his initial on it. The next step to this discovery should be opening the boxes then reading the letter. Maybe it would all reveal Its sense after these strange items have been analysed. Possibly a message sent from an annonimous figure? If so, this clever character knee exactly what they were doing. They knew curiousity would overcome our insticts. "lets find out what this shit is!" was Jacob-Lee's conclusion to his theory. xD
    While Jacob-Lee and I sat there contemplating whether or not to open the letter, we started talking about a lot of different things and one of the things we talked about was Jacob-Lee himself.
Jacob-Lee is a descendant of the great Korean martial artist, Dae-Hyun Lee. Apparently, his british mother was married to Dae-Hyun Lee's son, Chin-Ho. Chin-Ho insisted that his son be named in the normal korean way, that is, having two names. Jacob-Lee's mother wanted to name his just Jacob but Chin-Ho wanted to name him Bae-Lee, Bae was his own fathers name and Lee, his grandfathers name. They finally agreed on naming him Jacob-Lee.
Jacob-Lee has also been trained to be a martial artsist ever since he was a child. That is the main reason I thought of him first when I was confused about what to do wth the box, He tends to be quite wise. That and the fact that there was a J on one of the boxes.
We talked and talked and kind of forgot about the box. The box didnt let us forget for long though, it suddenly made that loud BANG! once again. Jacob-Lee had a look on his face that looked like he had just been struck by lightning, Im sure I had the same look on my face. It wasnt because of the bang, it was because of what happened after the bang.....
       Jacob-Lee was in complete shock not only because of the sudden noise, but also because his eyes were witnessing the most unrealistic thing hed ever seen before. The box began to melt Nd form many different shapes, shapes we never even knew existed. Until finally it came to a halt. The box took the appearence of a 19th century clock. But weirdly it was counting down in time, Nd Jacob-Lee was sure of that. There was a strange feeling which Jacob-Lee got everytime the hands on the clock shifted. Almost like the clock was trying to talk to him. All Jacob-Lee knew was something had to be done before the time was up........
Jacob-Lee and I stared at the old clock for a good 5 minutes with the occasional glance to one another, before realising that we were wasting precious time...except we didnt really know why the time was so precious..yet.
        We looked at each other for a second and Jacob-Lee nodded. We agreed that it was time. Time to open the letter. We were hoping that it would mention anything about the this ticking clock, what was going on?
Jacob-Lee hands me the letter to open and I give him a very concerned look, he nods again.
It was the moment everything would finally make sense, all in that letter....at least we hoped so.
I rip the letter open.
         So we open the letter (with a fancy letter cutter coz were posh like that :P) no ripping involved Hahah. Imprinted on the delicate piece of paper which looked very aged, was only one sentence. Which read "boxes fall, boxes get caught Nd hold smaller boxes which bring thought; so think."
This confused the Shit out of both Jacob-Lee Nd Engalitius. It was a riddle of some sort. Possibly indicating that we look further into the two smaller boxes. Maybe they held the answer to our confusion. Engalitius hated Riddels. Her fustration led into her into throwing the letter in the ground. It very sunny that day. The sun rays began to focus on the discarded letter. As Jacob-Lee leaned closer to observe the letter, he saw a map uncovering itself under the light of the sun. But the shade of his head hid a part of the map. He moved back Nd there the whole map was revealed. What Nd where was this map based on. Was it the small town which they lived in or was it some foreign lands? In small printing at the very bottom of the map was a signature. Rockalivealot IV.
What did this all mean?

(and then about exactly a year later I wrote the next part)

Jacob-lee picks up the letter and looks over to me...he'd clearly seen something I hadn't. He passes over the letter and tells me to have a closer look and then i see it "Rockalivealot IV". We both didn't have the slightest clue to where that might be. All of a sudden Jacob-Lee storms out of the house and comes back about 10 minutes later. He was holding a big old dusty brown book. I had no idea where he'd gotten that or why he even had something like that, but id gotten used to not questioning him. There'd be far too much to question. Anyway, he sets the book down o the floor and starts flipping through the pages really fast, almost like he knew what he was looking for. And apparently he did. Jacob-Lee finally decided to tell me what he was doing, actually, he showed me. In his big brown book, was the same map, with the same small printing at the bottom. I was absolutely dumbstruck, I thought all of this was some strange unrealistic thing and it was, to an extent, but this in the book suddenly made it all seem very real. There was only one small problem, the opposite page was ripped out. That made us both very, very curious.


Yep I think that was as far as we went haha and we never got back to it.  I think it was getting too complicated and we didn't really want to start thinking. Plus we really had no idea where we were going with it. It took out a good deal of our time when we should've been studying though.
Anyway, hope it gave you laugh or anything else for that matter :D
