During my 3 hour long Mountain Dew break, I got a chance to interview Bobby Pendragon, the traveler for Second Earth...what does that mean you ask? Well we're all about to find out.

Me: So Bobby...what is a traveler?

Bobby: Uh...ask Aja...

Me: Who the heck is Aja?

Bobby: The traveler from Veelox.

Me: Look...kid...all I want to know is WHAT IS A TRAVELER?!

Bobby: Whoo...calm down dude!

Me: Look...this is an interview...I ask the questions and YOU answer! This if for English! Focus!

Bobby: Who cares about English?

Me: I do, and I'M the one asking the questions!

Bobby: Alright then...a traveler is one person chosen from a territory that protects all the other territores from Saint Dane. Aren't we like, halfway done now?

Me: No, that was 1/10 questions. Anyways, who is Saint Dane?

Bobby: The bad guy.

Me: ...

Bobby: Oh alright! Uh...let's see here. All the territories are going through a turning point, and it's our job as travelers to make sure they get through it okay. Saint Dane, on the other hand, wants Halla (Everything!) to collapse and by doing so become the ruler of Halla. So he tries to turn the territories to chaos using manipulation.

Me: Well that was a mouthful! Tell us about Denduron and its traveler.

Bobby: Alder is the traveler of Denduron. It's also home to two different tribes. One of the tribers is the Milago, who I, Uncle Press, Alder, and Loor help, and the Bedowan. The territory is on the brink of a revolution as the Milago are tired of being ruled by the Bedowan. Without Alder on our side, we wouldn't have been able to get into the Bedowan castle; after all he was one of their knights and knew his way around.

Me: How about Coral?

Bobby: CLORAL!

Me: Sorry...

Bobby: It's okay, I get that a lot. Anyways, Cloral is my favorite territory. It's like that movie "Waterworld". The whole planet is covered in water and you have great civilizations built above the water. My good friend Spader is one of the water guards and protects the city. He's a good guy, but just doesn't have what it takes to help protect Halla with all the other travelers. There is even a lost city that is the only known piece of lank called Faar-

Me: You watch too many movies.

Bobby: Technically, you do since you're the one writing this thing.

Me: Whatever, anyways, continue.

Bobby: I'm done.

Me: No you're not! I cut you off!

Bobby: Well, I was practically done.

Me: Practically?

Bobby: Just go ahead and ask the next question!

Me: Ok...*Flips through papers* Stupid squirrel secretaries...

Bobby: Come on already! I've got territories to save!

Me: According to my information, travelers appear at a territory when they are needed-

Bobby: Are you implying that you're smarter than me?

Me: Technically I am since I'm writing this, remember?

Bobby: Right.

Me: Yes...I AM smart! *Shifty glance*

Bobby: Uh...why don't I just tell you a little about myself then, shall I?

Me: Shoot.

Bobby: Okay. I'm just like normal kids right? I go to Stoney Brook High and play on the basketball team. I've got a lot of friends, but Mark Diamond is my best friend. My girlfriend is Courtney Chetwynde, who has been my rival at sports since elementery school.

Me: Can you tell us about Mark?

Bobby: Mark has been my best friend since first grade! Though our likes and dislikes are completely differemt, we are still the best of friends. Mark wears glasses and has a thing with carrots (He thinks it will improve his eyesight) and he's a big nerd.

Me: Aren't we all...anyways, what about Courtney?

Bobby: Who now?

Me: Kid, what's you deal? Courtney Chetwynde/

Bobby: Right. Courtney is the most athletic person in our school. She's on all the guy teams because the girls couldn't keep up with her, but neither can the guys. She's pretty and popular so yeah...you get the picture.

Me: How romantic...

Bobby: Yeah I know.

Me: I was being sarcastic.

Bobby: Well no one knows that when you're typing this stuff!

Me: They do now.

Bobby: You're mean...

Me: Quit your whining. Ok, if Saint Dane came to second Earth, what would he do to cause the negative turning point in our territory?

Bobby: Probably get someone to blow up all the Disney Worlds on the planet or something.

Me: Pretty sneaky.

Bobby: Yup, that would definately throw the world on the brink of destruction.

Me: Okay, Ms Applen is probably getting bored of reading this by now, so let's try to rap it up.

Bobby: Yeeeeeees.

Me: Your vote of confidence is overwhelming...

Bobby: Geez, someone has to chain your VCR up or something man!

Me: I've got more than that!

Bobby: Okay, we're drifting off subject now...

Me: That we are my friend! That we are!

Bobby: You're really starting to scare me...

Me: o.o Alright, I'm starting to get caught up in the whole RP thing and am forgetting that this is an ENGLISH ASSIGNMENT!

Bobby: ...

Me: Meh, well I guess that's all for this lousy excuse for an interview! I bet you anything though; you won't find a more interesting interview in your stash of book reports since I'm the only one enjoying this assignment. now all that's left is to check for typos (Dang those infernal typos) and turn it in.

Bobby: Hope you get a good grade!

Me: Me too my young friend, me...too.

*hint**hint*

Squirrel Secretary: Nukuku! (Translation: It's out there!)
