Sidhe war.

Sidhe wars.

In order to tell you my story i first need you to imagine a city, this city isn't particularly big but however isn't all that small either, its situated in the middle of England and home to many people. This city has schools and parks, There is a university and a college, it has a shopping center and market, on the out side it is just a normal city.

How ever underneath its cover of normality this city has a dark secret, it is the back drop to a centuries old war. this war is not like any you have ever read or heard about and you certainly won't have learnt about it in you history  class as it had been a secret to all apart from a select few for a very long time. the battle Field is split into to down the center of the city and the borders and the opposing sides territories are separated only by one very busy road. Any human can cross this road, they can stand at the traffic lights press the button and when the walking green man light flash's they can cross, but for the soldiers at war this crossing could cost them there life. 

My name is Alexandra, but most people call me Alex and i'm the only human caught in the middle of a war between two supernatural oponants. When i was still young i lived in a house on the side of that road, one night whislt i lay in my bed, aged only seven i heared them break in, my dad told me to lock my self in a cuboard and dont come out untill the bad people went away and so i did. They didnt go of there own accord; they worked there way threw my house killing as they went, fist my mum then my two sisters and lastly my dad who was trying his hardest to make sure we were safe, when his body hit the floor in a lifeless heap they came for me.

Only they didn't get me, to this day i don't know what happened for sure, i just know that someone came in and made the bad people go away then as i shut my eyes tight and prayed to the heavens that i was mistaken, that my parents and sisters were not dead, the cupboard door was opened. Alistair saved me. from that day forth i was brought into the sidhe world but i've always called them Fae.

Untill then i had allways thought they were not real, the fea or sidhe, were just irish stories my irish mother told me as a child, at the age of seven i was over them, i didnt believe they were real; but in truth i had no idea. Fae arnt Just fairies or nynths, there everything supernatural you can think of; sucubi, vampires, wairewofs, selki, and many many more. Alistair brought me into this world and raised me as his own, i learnt all about this world and its people. 

I never knew much about the war, only that the Fae on the other side of that road killed my family and are not like the ones i am accustomed to. i know that my being there and tort about this world was a controversial choice, some believed humans should stay out of it, i didn't have much of a choice. When i turned 14 years old Alistair insisted i went to school. Going to a public school filled with humans was tough, i knew this massive secret that they were completely oblivious to, i didn't have close Friends and i didn't really want any; i had Fae Friends. i often begged him not to make me go practically every year as i got older and older i got used to it though. And now at the age of sixteen i'm a master at leading this double life.
