Chapter 3 - The chosen one

The next morning...

(Dellfer wakes up, staring at the ceiling)

Dellfer-What a wonderful birthday, my dad gave me a book, I want to read it already (Internal thought)

(Dellfer quickly gets up from his bed, takes the book out of a drawer and returns to his bed and looks at it)

Dellfer-The Book of Light? That sounds very interesting, I can't wait to read it (Internal Thought)

*Hanging music*

(Dellfer opens to the first page of the book)

Dellfer-what is this?

*Hanging music*

(There is a written text)

The Book of Light

I have created this sacred book with only one purpose, when evil arises, good will also arise, when evil falls, good will reign, this book will fight evil when the time comes and it will win, when darkness appears, light will face it, he who has obtained this book and has managed to read its text, it means that he is worthy and that he is the chosen one and that all the power of this book belongs to him to defend the good, use this book to do good or else the power in it will disappear.

(The book begins to glow and starts to turn pages on its own, a bright light emanates from it that illuminates Dellfer's entire room)

Dellfer-ah, what's going on!?

(The book stops flipping through a page and stops glowing)

Dellfer- ¡ahh!

(Dellfer quickly runs out of the room)

Several seconds later..

(Dellfer runs to his father's room)

Dellfer-Dad!, Dad!, the book was shining very bright!, come quickly!

(Dellfer leaves his parents' room and runs back to his room and his dad runs after him)

Dellfer-I opened it to a page and read it, then it started to shine very brightly, I don't know what happened to it

(Dellfer enters his room and his father too)

Rodolfo-Where is the book?

Dellfer-is in bed

(Dellfer's father approaches the bed and carefully takes the book)

Rodolfo-it must have been a reflection of sunlight or something

(Dellfer's father opens the book)

Dellfer-It couldn't have been the sun, there were some words written on the first page of the book, it was something strange like good, light or something like that.. Then suddenly it began to shine very brightly and to flip through very quickly.

(Dellfer's father stays for several minutes reviewing the book)

Rodolfo-Are you sure son?

Dellfer-yes dad

Rodolfo-But there's nothing in this book, son, that's how I found it, there's nothing written in it, I gave it to you specifically so you could fill it with drawings or something.

(Dellfer makes a confused face)

Dellfer-but, but

(Dellfer approaches his father and looks through the book as well, flipping through the first few pages)

Dellfer-it's written here, can't you see?

(Dellfer points to the first page with his finger but his father does not see anything written)

Rodolfo-son, are you seeing well? Do you need contact lenses? I don't see anything written on it. I'll take you for an eye exam tomorrow. In the meantime, I'll take your book with me until you feel better.

(Rodolfo Dellfer's father takes the book called The Book of Light and walks out of the room)

(Dellfer is a little scared)

Dellfer-Why couldn't my dad see the text?
