All On My Own

Life of a...

My boyfriend, Cameron, died. We've been dating for a year and then boom, on our anniversary he died when the restraunt we were at went on fire.

What a date that was.

Then I locked myself in a little bubble for three weeks and didn't talk to anyone.

My mom coaxed me out, eventually, and I fell in love with Rick.

But this goes deeper... And into the forest where he asked me to run away with him.

I spend days finding things with Rick and stumbled into a mystery that should not be discovered.

But being me, I had to solve it.

I perched on a tree like a bird about to attack it's prey. Instead I was watching the richest community in the world: the Evergreen Community.

Wolves paced back and forth but they're were no guards. I would've enjoyed humans instead of wolves though, because these wolves are very, very, very loyal.

I looked over at Rick, my refuge boyfriend, on the tree next to me.

"You ready?" I asked. We were about to attack this community and do what we do best: steal.

"Yeah," he answered,"let's do this,"

Taking a deep breath, I scurried down the tree as softly as I could. Rick was a bit more noisy and the closest wolf looked in his direction.

He stopped and so did I. The wolf growled, but I guess it thought the noise was just an animal.

I got down, my pack slowing me down at the bottom. Rick stumbled and I shot him a look. He shrugged as if to say, wasn't my fault I had no training,

I rolled my eyes and crept to the back, still concealed. I motioned for Rick to come when the wolves dissipated a bit.

"What's you're plan?" He asked me.

"My plan!" I almost yelled," I got us here, now it's your turn!"

"Ok, ok," he gave way,"how about we get wolf costumes and sneak in there?"

I groaned," fine you convinced me to come up with a plan. Happy?"

He smiled,"what do we do?"

I told him my plan to dress up as the Evergreens and enter like we belong. There was a clothesline with the villagers clothes towards the back where we stood.

I found something my size and left my jeggings, my old green, brown, t- shirt, and fur coat in the bushes. I now had on a plain white dress with black tights. And I was ready to do this.
