Starry glass

Chapter Three Trellis

I sat in my room with Stella looking up at the ceiling just thinking. Stella was writing her books so I was free of her questions for a bit. as I looked up at the ceiling I didn't feel like everything was alright I felt like something was wrong. I was still extremely worried about the person that was roaming the halls of our building. I shuttered and looked over at Stella. She was still writing her book and was completely oblivious of the supposed danger. I shook my head Still worrying Stella still didn't look up when I walked over to her.

Only when I leaned over her shoulder only then did she look up at me. "Do you need something?" she asked, sounding unconcerned. I shook my head. then I looked off into the distance as if seeing something else. Stella shook her head and looked back to her writing. I suppressed a sigh when I heard a loud pounding at our door. I calmly walked over to the door and opened it. But when I opened the door I didn't find Marne but someone with Greasy black hair and Dark brown eyes which were wide open but he seemed too old to be new here though I had thought that I Knew everybody. I looked at him over Disapproval laying on my face.

"Are you the 'supposid' Star roaming around?" I asked with a sneer on my face. The man looked back at me and fear planted firmly on his face. I raised my eyebrows at the man when he paled and looked around as if panicked.

"Who are you?" I asked putting my face right up to his.

he hesitated looking up at me fearfully. "You could call me TimeTeller..." he Said his eyes sparkling with interest. I raised my eyebrows but did not question him. He suddenly gasped and looked around wildly. "I need a place to hide!" He looked at Stella and as if feeling his gaze looked up. She frowned and nodded.

I Looked back at TIme-TelLer but I didn't banish him like I wanted to. instead I nodded as well. I grabbed my glass sword, careful not to slice TIme-TelLer and I Slid it into my hand-made sheath. My glass sword had taken so long to make I had tried to forge the blade onto a metal handle but that just didn't work. Even though it had taken So long I had spent the time making the blade as sharp as I could and the entire thing was made from glass. I had felt quite stupid when I found out that I had the ability to turn things to glass. I could have just gotten a sword and then turned it to glass.

TIme-TelLer eyed the sword though he didn't move away from it. he frowned when his expression grew frantic again. He dashed into our closet and closed the door. barely moments later Marne burst into our room. I had drawn my sword before I even knew who it was. When I realized it was Marne I put the sword away as quickly as I had gotten it out. Marne leaped away from me when he saw me standing in the doorway.

"What was that!" I growled "only come in here uninvited unless you are prepared for that reaction!" Marne looked at me with a scowl plain on his face though he didn't speak up. I sighed and looked at him "what do you want?" I asked him, my voice sounding puzzled.

"I saw the person! He is no star but he seems dangerous..." I raised my eyebrow at him "he seemed like he knew things!" I sighed and looked over at Stella who was Giving her best 'I'm a Scared helpless woman' face to try and make him go away. Marne sighed and walked out the door.

"I hate how well that always works" Stella grumbled "why do we always get underestimated!" I sighed but smiled at Stella. She still seemed sour so I didn't go to her. Instead I walked over to the closet and opened the door.

"get out!" I growled at TIme-TelLer ''Go back to your island! We all are shards!" I waved my hands around annoyed. Even though I had told him that we were shards he didn't seem like he cared at all. I raised my eyebrow.

"and...?" TIme-TelLer asked, his voice filled with confusion. "What are shards....?" he asked slowly.

I Felt a deep pit of shock but truly I was not surprised. The stars probably hid us from the rest of the world and didn't want everyone to know about the horrible creatures that lived over on the other island. I scowled and thrust out my hand. "we do things..." I grabbed his coat sleeve "Like this" I transformed his coat into pure clear glass. He was wearing a shirt underneath so It was fine. TIme-TelLer gasped looking at his coat. He looked back up at me.
