Pic Farris Wheel background evening setting at the pier, Christina and Ariella without her wings.
Christina's POV
Recently most of the time it's just me and Ariella which I don't mind as much she gets me. I just want to feel like I'm useful that I'm needed and wanted but here we're only wanted until we conceive so that's not working for me. I want a love that lasts call me a hopeless romantic, but come on Pegasus's have a long lifespan more than most supernaturals., example my father is 723years old my mother is 476 years old and yes I have many half siblings more than I can name. Me I'm the freak whereas my other siblings take our law seriously I don't.
I shift back into Ariella our wings only appear when we wish to fly. So I'm just gonna graze for a while and have a run. After I taste the sugar sweet grass I dig my hooves into the grass and gallop off I hear a faint whistle from someone but I don't stop I just run till I no longer have all this pent up frustration inside me. Once I stop I blow my nose in enjoyment that felt so good. I'm in a good mood until I see Castor my dad's chief messenger oh god please don't hit on me. His Pegasus is a dark bay with white tips on his feathers. He's rather big for a messenger I've seen Kaloola eye him this year. "What I'm not attending the stupid ceremony so your wasting your time Castor." I mind-link him he shakes his head if he was his human form if see his stupid smirk. I'm so not into this. My deadpan face can he not get it into his head. "I realise your picky I get it you only want the best and baby I'm the good thing all things come in." My lip turns up in disgust. I walk a little in front of him and buck at his head. "PISS OFF, I DON'T CARE FOR ANY OF THIS CRAP REMEMBER." I squeal my frustration in his face he pulls back wincing from the noise. I gallop away suddenly needing to run again.***
Day laterI wake up and stretch after I got hit on several times I flew off only arriving home at 3am only the guards where on duty still but this isn't the first time I've left the territory so I've become rather good at avoiding contact no doubt if the guards saw me they'd blab to my dad.
I get up and take a shower I live by myself once we turn 16 everyone lives on their own that part I like everything else about this place I hate I mean it's good that you can choose who fathers your foals I guess but it's just not for me it's not like we get a commitment out of it. I'm not going to just give my body, my soul to anyone and everyone in the human world you would be known as a slut but here it's celebrated. So I'll let them do them and I'm going to do me and be happy. Don't know how yet but I'm thinking about it.
After I change into my jeans and crop top I brush my teeth and go downstairs I grab some Yano juice it's like a sweeter version of apple juice it's magical like most things are here. Once outside I shift and go out back avoiding all the crowds to graze on the yummy sugary grass for breakfast, until I hear an authoritative snort. I lift my head and find my dad glaring at me what now. "Christina, Ariella I expect you to pick a partner tonight your the only female without any offspring to her name. I won't have you tarnish our good name I have been more than patient with you..." "or what dad" I rebel back he puts his ears flat back onto his head he's pissed beyond belief. "YOU STUPID GIRL LOVE ISN'T REAL, GET YOUR HEAD OUT OF THESE CLOUDS, YOU WILL MATE TONIGHT OR YOU WON'T COME BACK EVER AGAIN UNDERSTOOD." He nipped my shoulder before swishing his tail in my face as a sign of assertion.
Just because I'm going doesn't mean I'm picking a partner I'm only going to sit on the rides and try to forget I'm a hated Pegasus. I gallop to my own personal heaven, where cherry blossoms surround me the waterfall sprinkles out golden dust I lie down I take soothing breaths trying to calm my earlier lust to kill something or someone *cough* my father.
When I get home I throw on denim shorts and my hippy top I know the dress code is summer dress but I'm not planning on mating so I'm just going to have fun by my lonesome and if my father kicks me out I'll be free I'll just get to live my life the way I want to without someone in my ear telling me it's wrong, we don't do that, why can't you be a normal female Pegasus. Ha yeah piss ants we should just leave Christina.I head to the fair grounds and stand hidden in the back away from horny shifters until my dad finishes his fancy speech as he goes to hook up with Marcy, my mum's trying to hook up with someone half her age I laugh at the uncomfortable face on her target I roll my eyes and head to the spooky train this will be fun I put on my hoodie and hide my face as I doze off in the train.
After I have tons of fun riding all the attractions I grab veggie burger and my shoulder is squeezed painfully I turn and about to scream in outrage to the jerk who assaulted my innocent shoulder only to stumble over my words. "M-m-mu-um w-what are you d-doing here. I-I thought you were getting Colton." Not many things scare me but my mother does. I watch her blue eyes turn grey oh boy. "Your father gave you an ultimatum young lady and your by yourself. THIS YEAR YOU WILL CONCEIVE NOW GET THE FUCK OUT THERE AND MATE WITH ANYONE FOR ALL I CARE. JUST DON'T WAIST MY TIME GIRL." My mum shoved me hard into the food van with her levitation magic. I groan and wince already feeling the massive bruise forming. I see a hand outstretched to me I look up to see, what a surprise Josh I groan for a different reason annoyance. I push his hand away and glare at him. "I don't want your help. I DON'T WANT ANYBODY'S HELP. I JUST WANT TO BE LOVED NOT MATED WITH EVERY GOD DAMN THING THAT WALKS! There's more to life than mating is this all we've reduced ourselves too. I mean come on is this all you want girls there's so much more we could see in this world instead we're Breeding machines." My father slaps my face interrupting my outburst. "YOU WILL LEAVE ILLYRIA AND NEVER COME BACK. I CAST YOU OUT. YOU ARE NO CHILD TO ME I TAKE FROM YOU YOUR TITLE, YOU WILL BE EXILED TO EARTH HAHA AND GOOD LUCK YOU'D BE A SIDE SHOW ATTRACTION TO THEM. IF THEY DON'T EAT YOU FIRST. YOU DON'T WANT TO BE PART OF THIS HERD FINE LEAVE. LOVE DOES'NT EXIST, YOU DON'T EXIST TO US. BEGONE."
I screamed as my body was shunted down from the clouds. I felt like my body was ripped apart. I tried to shift but Ariella was in too much pain from our exile. Great I'm going to hit the ground and die. The wind blowing my hair in all directions I just keep falling and I wander is this how it ends?
I close my eyes and wait for the ground to kill me. I open my eyes as a silent scream escapes my lips my hands outstretched to the ground and my body freezes literally three inches off the ground my power of protection thank god. I then let out a breath as my power vanished and I land face first into a pile of leaves I grumble into the leaves. "This is just great." I look up sitting up on my knees where am I. The only thing I know is I'm still in the supernatural world but which one. Please, don't be vampires, please not vampires I hear screaming ohh boy sounds like vampire prey to me. Umm Ariella come on I need you, I can't outrun vampires without you. No response the screaming sounded different I was in two minds do I head to the screaming or run away?
