A young girl by the name of (Y/N) was wondering the streets. Her mother had asked her if she could pick some things up from the street market. Of course, being the wonderful and obedient daughter she is, happily obliged to do so. As she walked down the cobble paved roads of London, she noticed it was getting rather dark out. Oh, I better hurry up so I can head back home, she thought to herself. Her (e/c) eyes darted across the street, as she had an odd feeling that she was being watched. She quickened her pace hastily, and hurried as fast as she could to the nearest salesman that was still out, and got the things her mother had asked of her.

When (y/n) returned home, her mother scooped her up in her arms in a bone-crushing hug. "M-mother, your h-hurting me!" (y/n) helplessly let out. "Oh, I'm sorry dear, it's just that the guards had spotted pirates in the village who are trying to recruit new members for their pirate crews!" (y/n)'s mother exclaimed, finally letting her poor daughter out if the bear hug. Could someone really have been following me? She innocently thought, no, it had to of been my silly imagination! And with that (y/n) handed her mother the pouch filled with her requested items. "Oh (y/n), you are such a great daughter" (y/n)'s mother trailed off. (y/n) beamed at her mother's compliment, but her smile soon faded as (y/n) thought of her father. (y/n)'s mother trailed off. It must've been hard on her, (y/n) thought. Today was the two year anniversary of
(y/n)'s father's death. Her mother was still heartbroken to this day, many members of the family fear that she will never be able to pick herself back up, so occasionally they send some money to help cover the bills, food payment, clothing money, or anything else they might need. With thoughts of her father still fresh in her mind, she headed off to her room across from her mother's. Everything will be all right (y/n), everything will be alright, she assured herself. Before (y/n) herself knew it, she was drifting off into her own land.
***********
I was walking down the same cobblestone road as earlier, the beautiful sun setting, sending brilliant shades of orange and yellow to my sights. The feeling of being followed still present, and as I turned I saw a pair of emerald green eyes piercing my soul. Before I could let out a screech, everything went black. I found myself floating through nothingness. Finally, i fell back to the scene, the man with the emerald eyes also had dirty blonde hair and unremarkable bushy eyebrows... Or were those caterpillars? The man reached down to stroke my cheek
