Underworlds #1: The Battle Begins - Plot & Excerpts
“So, are we ready to call the cops yet?” asked Jon. “Or the loony bin?” asked Sydney. “Maybe we can get a deal. Three for one.” I made a face at her. “Who are you talking about — us or the lunch ladies?” Sydney had the book now and was flipping its pages with one hand while she forked up macaroni with the other. “To borrow a line from you, Owen, I don’t know.” She was quiet for a minute, thinking. “I mean, we did see a fire-breathing wolf.” “We did,” Jon said. “And Dana did vanish,” she added. “She did,” I said. “And if those ladies …” Sydney paused to look toward the kitchen. “If those ladies really are the Valkyries from Norse mythology, what they told us might be true.” “If. Might,” I echoed, stabbing my macaroni a little harder than I planned. “Are you saying Dana was actually taken to the Underworld? And that the Underworld is below our school?” The other kids at the table looked over at me. Oops. “Ha-ha! Still kidding!”
