It all started in my childhood. Specifically, when I was about 10 years old… I remembered playing in a play ground as my mother and father, with glee in their eyes, were watching me as an expanding enthusiasm and imagination burst as I pretended to fly like a bird, and jump so high that I was in the clouds. They couldn't seem more proud of a young girl like me. And then as I zoomed across the place, I bumped into a young boy with glasses. "Oops, I'm sorry," a ten year old me said as I got his specs and helped him up. "T-That's okay. I'm fine. But thank you for helping me up," a blushing best friend of mine said as he spoke nervously and a bit embarrassingly of himself. "I'm Geo. It's nice to meet you ma'am."
"Lovely to meet you Geo. I'm Mary" I said with a loving smile. Ever since that day, we've been friends ever since. Growing up together, playing at the playground a couple days a week. And then, well… high school struck. Some people picked on Geo for being a "nerd". But you probably know where this is going. Yes, he was bullied by a jock. However, Geo *was* on the track team, as he wanted to keep his youth. Me? I was trying to get more reconnected with him. Besides… I loved him. I loved him for the way he is. I loved him because he was brave enough to even stand up for himself and for others when they needed him most at one point when it came to the school jock, James. I saw him one day in the hallway, with the reflecting tan flooring and the green lockers around us. Honestly, I was excited to see him again after so long. "Hey, Geo! It's been a while, hasn't it?" I said as I walked with him to lunch. "It sure has. Though, I wish we had at least ONE class together. It felt a bit lonely without you- I mean… it would've just been nice with someone who understood me." He was blushing again, but I smiled coyly. "I knew what you meant. Besides… It was pretty lonely. I miss your jokes, if I'm honest."
We went to lunch that evening, and years passed on. We were both now the same age of 18, graduating high school in the year 200X. At Autumn Falls, we rode bikes on the sidewalk as we passed by benches. The bricks on the road to the view of the lake and city was in the background as we pedaled around as the sun began to set. However, something sinister was coming around. On the news, apparently, an alien community led by a King and Queen named their son, Gizoyu, the new head and president of Autumn Falls. However, little did we know… that he was in need of help. You see, one day, Gizoyu sent Geo a message through a hologram stating that him and the world was in danger, for that if this organization was to lay their hands on Gizoyu, Autumn Falls, and the rest of the world, would be unbalanced due to the pinpoints they tried to control all around the world, for that it would control people, objects, and animals. This is the story of how I married the love of my life.
After receiving the message, he came straight away alongside his trusty sidekick and loyal dog, Prince, and drove all the way to my house. "Marry, there's something you need to see, and fast! Apparently, Gizoyu just called me, and told me that he needs help!" Well, this was unexpected, so why Gizoyu? Isn't he some famous government leader? What did he have to do with us? Well, you see, due to us exceeding our talents in high school, and how we were both victorians and top of our classes. To me, it was hard, but to Geo, it was as simple as breathing air. He helped me a lot, even in the library from time to time after lunch and school. "Gizoyu, huh? Do you have any proof? Though… I guess your panicking was already proof enough," I say, observing and assessing his body language. Then, from behind me, Gizoyu and his body guards appeared. "Hah! See, I told you he called me!"
"That is correct, Geo," he said in a collective manner. "I called you and Mary for a very important favor. A task or mission at hand, if you will. You see, there have been legends of an ancient set of artifacts known as 'Pinpoints', and that if you gain all 7 of them, you achieve an ultimate power that is similar to a flying beast. Possibly a dragon." "Wait… so you want us why? I mean, not that I'm saying no, but I feel as if there is more to this than we thought…" The dog nodded his head in agreement. "Well… if there is any wish you want, I would gladly grant it. Besides, your intuitive sense of kindness will do us a favor, Miss Mary," he said. "-And yes, I am psychic. That's the only way I knew about you people, and the reason why I chose you to help me find said Pinpoints. I even suspected that your intuition was so good, that you too also possess a psychic ability too. Your Telepathy, correct?" Gizoyu said as I was surprised. "Are you saying my best friend has powers?!"
"Yes, that is precisely what I am saying, Geo. You can take the dog as well, for that I also sense a type of justice and loyalty within him." Well, it was settled: This scenario just got even weirder. But we had no time to waste. We went all around the world, through the canyons of Coral Canyon, to the coldness of the Glacier Grove, to even the Jamming Jungle, and even met a movie star at Shimmer-Shine City. Our final stop was Tulip Town. However, our troubles were not over. You see, each Pinpoint had a guardian. And through battle, we had to prove ourselves. For Autumn Falls, it was a leaf guardian. For Coral Canyon, it was a terra-forming guardian. For Glacier Grove, an icicle-snow looking guardian. You get the idea. At the final point, after battling animals, deranged and hypnotised people, even bizarre looking agents and creatures, we faced the final challenge: The boss of the organization "Mr. Bigshot". A man who wanted to steal the powers of Gizoyu's people. He had a giant mechanical dragon that he built in order to face us. However, the only way to beat him, was by using our own friendship, love, courage, and hope to form our own dragon with the other 6 points. With our powers combined, we made a giant red dragon that was able to defeat the mechanical beastling of a creature. The boss looked at us in defeat. "How are you strong? It's not possible… my empire… my plans… everything!! How could you take that all away?!"
"Well…" I said, holding onto Geo's hand. "They say 'love conquers all'." I said before he blacked out. Gizoyu thanked us for his leadership. After all his years of training, he had never seen passion so strong. So he started the "Loving Passion Movement" throughout Autumn Falls, and to all the locations we had been too. It was a site. Well, now you know my story… "Hey, babe, are you coming?"
"Yes, in a minute." Welp, that's all for me. I have to enjoy this wonderful wedding with my friends. And hey, thank your or reading my story. See you soon!
