The boy that believed

               For the beginning of time, the boy followed the wizard. The boy didnt speak but simply watched the wizard in his ways of magic and most certainly the wizard was magic. Everything the Wizard did it was done in complete perfection in the eyes of the boy. The boy believed in magic because of the wizard and wanted nothing more than to follow the wizard in his magical ways. The wizard and the boy would go on adventures and slay mythical monsters and save the day. Everything was wonderful and there was nothing that the boy and the wizard couldnt do. Even at night when the mosters would creep and lurk in the darkness, the wizard was able to protect the boy and teach him how to fight the monsters. The wizard told the boy that our power of magic came from our mind and imagination. There was no monster that the boy couldnt conquer and it was only because of the wizard that the boy became magic. The wizard wasnt just a man or a hero but his best friend. The boy couldnt think of any better way to live his days than learning from this wizard of unlimited power. There came a point when the wizard must leave and journey to a distant land and fight monsters only the wizard could fight. The boy would stay and protect the castle and waited for the wizard to come back to his rightful place as the master of the castle. And sure enough the wizard came back after a long travel and embraced his prized pupil. The boy and the wizard would then proceed to fight monsters in their land and have an adventure before a bountiful feast. After the feast the boy and the wizard then learned of adventures of other heroes from stories in the book of ancient texts. The land was full of magic and adventure for some time. Everyday was similar until one day the wizard began to lose his power. I dont know if was poison or old age but the wizard was slowly losing his magic. He would come home from fighting monsters and instead of embracing the boy the wizard would retire to his chambers instead of fighting the monsters. They would still fight monsters but not as often and the monsters would begin to grow in the land. The boys magic eventually surpassed the wizards magic and instead of being the boys hero the wizard became almost a hindrance in the fighting of monsters. The boy grew and learned and the wizard did the same. The wizard no longer was magic and was no longer the teacher. It was now up to the boy to fend the castle from monsters of all size. The boy fought monsters while pleading for the wizards assistance. The wizard lost his magic and no longer believed. The boy and the wizard grew apart but the boy still believed in his hero and knew that the wizard still believed in magic. One day there was a monster that the boy didnt see coming. This monster was unique and was invisible to the naked eye but you could see it if you had special goggles. The boy was bitten by this monster and neither the boy and the wizard knew of this monsters power. This monster was not only dangerous due to its invisibility but its venomous bite, One day while the boy was fighting and the venom hit the boy hard and he clasped on the battlefield. The wizard was onlooking the castle and noticed his once prized pupil of magic now fallen on the field in defeat. The wizard grabbed the boy and carried him to the medicine man. This medicine man had these special goggles and was able to see the bite of this venomous monster and sure enough the boy was bitten. The venom was in him and it was only a matter of time for the boy to perish to this monster of the land. The wizard embraced the boy and cried. The boy did the same. The wizard looked at this boy and saw his emanate doom before him. The boy was feeble yet asked the wizard something......... Do you still believe in magic? The wizard fought back tears and tried to find his words but couldnt. He could only nod while weeping. The boys eye lit up and was able to have one last battle before the boy died. It was the last time that the wizard and the boy were able to fight side by side before the chariot came to take him over the rainbow bridge. The boy hugged the wizard and whispered with his last breath... I always believed in you, I love you. The man held the boy and wept, holding the boys lifeless body. The wizard was sad because of the cancer that took his boy but his biggest regret was that he didnt believe in magic for the boy

. His biggest regret was that he wasnt able to take the time out of his day to play with his son.
