Arielle's POV

•••flashback•••

I am having a really good day. At least I was. Falling was literally the worst experience of my life. Worst than that time Mrs. Summers decided to make "cookies" for the whole class. Yuck. I fell, screaming, for about 5 seconds before someone grabbed my waist.

"Ari!" Ky yelled. "I hafta tell you something, I've always lo-" But the rest of his words were swept away as we were abruptly pulled to the side.

"Ky!" I screamed as we were pulled into different directions. I reached for him and just barely brushed his fingers before being jolted away.

I walked into the room a few hours later. Ky was already there, reading something. He was dressed like a prince of the old fairy times.

"Hey!" I smiled.

"Ari-whoa." He said, as he turned around. "You- you- you look amazing."

I turned to the mirror behind me. I was dress in a purple, long dress, with poofy sleeves and midnight blue slippers. I looked nothing like myself. My lips were colored a pale pink and my cheeks were an even lighter shade. All my freckles were gone, it was like Arielle 2.0. My hair was curled and only reached my shoulders. Golden strands were weaved in, along with a golden-leaf crown. It was terrifying. Have you ever looked into a mirror and not know who you were? I missed me.

•••end of flashback•••

It had been a year since I fell. A year since I met my mom. A year since I met my twin brother, Lythian. A year since I met my two little sisters, Amaranda(picture in the multimedia, I'll show you a picture of Briana next) and Briana. A year since I finally met my father, Orion, the king of fairies. He was why I had powers to control light, water, and ice. Amaranda, or Mara, could control plants and animals, and Briana, Bri for short could control the weather. Lythian couldn't do anything, with twins in the fairy world whose mom or dad was a human, one twin had magic powers, stronger than most half bloods, while one twin was a dud. No powers at all.

"Hurry up in there!" Bri shouted. Bri was my favorite family member. She looked exactly like me except Bri had striking green eyes to my sky blue. "I wanna go to the circus!" Bri was six years old to Mara's twelve.

"I'm coming! I'm coming!" I smile as Briana continues to pound on the door. "Go bug Mara or something!"

"I love you more so I bug you more! Deal with it." Bri screeched.

"Well. I feel appreciated." It was Mara. Mara was a perfect girl. She had long blond hair and big grey eyes. She had load of friends and great grades. Mara was so nice to everyone that it made me sick sometimes. I much preferred Bri's mischievousness and evil smirk." I've known you since birth and you've known her for a year."

"Exactly. You're catching on." Bri was singularly sassy for a 6 year old.

"What about me?"Lyth had just joined them.

"You're survivable." Bri squeaked. Lythian looked like me too, except his eyes were just a humdrum sorta brown.

"You suck." Lyth laughed.
