Sammy

The birds fly away as I look into the sky and I come back to reality as I looked down.

I was located in a big and wide forest, camping.

The people around here are not my crowd, making me an introvert in this situation.

Yup, mom forced me to come here:

"Come on sweetheart. It'll be fun! Trust me."she persuades as she hands me my folded skirt.

It was not even an inch to fun. All we did was play kid's games and slept at the tent. Which was pretty boring if you ask me.

"Okay let's start?" Our leader, Mark, announced.

Mark.

Mark is a brown-headed dude who's in the middle of being handsome and dreadful.

"Okay!" Cheered John, my so called friend.

"Let's play Hide and Seek." Mark said.

"How about we join?" Barbie pulled me, making me join. But my butt was heavy with boredom waiting to be thrown out.

"Nah" I said while sighing. I stood up and started walking.

I walked towards the forest and decided to embrace my inner nature-lover.

"Fine! I'll play on my own." I heard Barbie exclaim, irritated, as I walked towards the forest.

Nature is beautiful, mysteriously beautiful. Filled with flowers that color the unknown, birds whistling in broad daylight and creatures lurking in the dead of night.

It was unique and beautiful in it's own way.

I tracked the beauty of nature through a vague pathway coming from the camp we decided to stay in through the woods.

The path led me to, I believe it was the center of the woods.

"Meow"

I stopped and looked for the distinct sound of a small creature.

"Meow"

There it is again.

I looked and looked and there it was a cute kitten behind the bark of a huge tree cuddled up into a ball shape.

Due to it's cuteness and pity, I walked towards it.

"You must be lost little kitty" I said while stroking my hand through the kitten's unclean hair.

After a few strokes here and there, I stretched and....

The pathway....

While looking and fondling with that tiny creature I was not aware of me loosing the one thing that served as my direction, my only way back.

"It's okay. I'll find my way back" I whispered, calming myself as the sun began to set.

I continued to wander, continued to get lost. I dived deeper into the depths of the woods, not knowing what to expect.

Maybe thirty steps have been accomplished, the sound of water was perceived.

It was calling to me so I followed it. Not minding the danger that was waiting for me.

If someone or something was after me, I would be defenseless. Plus, I was part of the food chain here. And predators hiding and waiting to pounce make it even harder for me to survive.

Finally the river.

It was not hard to find but not easy as well.

I sat at the rock by the river. Feeling the waves as it hit the edges of the rock. It helped calm my nerves.

As my nerves were starting to calm, a burst in the water took me aback.

"Aaaaahhhh!" Was the sound I remembered screaming.

As the water cleared, a girl, maiden to be exact, was revealed. And by the looks of it ...

She

Was

Beautiful.

She was part of nature, you could say.

Gorgeous.

She was shining, shimmering, splendid.

Water dripped through her body.

She was clothed with a fine blue dress. Draped with silk and was surrounded with flowing water. It was amazing.

"I am the Goddess of water, Maria. Are you Sammy Blue?" her voice, Her voice was beauty and firmness combined.

"Uhm...uhm...y-yes" My voice cracked and my words were unclear.

"I want to talk to you."

"A-about what?" My words were still unclear and voice was cracking.

"Regarding to transferring. School to be specific." She said with modesty in her tone.

"What do you mean?" Now I'm confused.

"You will attend your new School. Chosen Academy."

Hello Everyone!

This is my first book. I translated this book from tagalog to English because I figured that I was more fluent in english than in Tagalog.

I'm not that well in writing, composing and thinking of words. So I hope you can bear with me.

I hope you enjoyed the first chapter.

I will be posting the next chapter soon.

Thank you guys for reading:)
