Chapter 3: explination
I awake with a start, after flash backs of yesterday and times I've never lived. I grab my coat and jump out my window, sliding down the vines to the ground, then running of into the forest , looking up at the sky. It's still a but dark out, maybe 4 am. I don't know where I'm going.
When I stop running I realise I'm at the lake. I look around and see a girl. My height. Blond hair. Pink roots. Weird clothes that look like they came from a fantasy book. She turns around and I see that she's holding a long stick and I see a little dagger in her belt. She starts walking towards me and I stare into her light pink eyes which are slowly turning into a darker shade of pink. She walks slowly, staring daggers into me.
"No closer, Amie." A male voice says. She ignores it.
"Amie." He says sternly. She continues walking. I see a faint pink glow starting to form around the stick she's holding, I start to get a bit scared at the realisation of what she's going to do. She says something under her breath and a bright pink spark explodes from the stick. Adrenalin kicks in and i dodge the spark. Fr the corner of my eye I see another figure appear from out in the bush, I turn to see the male, or who i think, was talking before. He throws a sparkling green knife at the girl and she dodges the knife but the boy quickly reacts and throws another one and this time it just slashes her arm. But it's like she never felt it. She glares at me and then just like that, she disappears. Into THIN AIR. Woah... I turn to the boy and he turns to look at me.
"I think I should explain..." He says trailing off.
"Ya' think?" I say.
"Urm, you might wanna sit down." He suggests, so I do.
"Uhh well... Long story short, your a Faerie" he states plainly. What?
"What?" I say, shocked. "Are you kidding me? Are you trying to trick me? Is this some kind of joke?"
"No. This is real, how do you think that Amie did that? With special effects? Look at that tree." He says pointing to a tree behind me, that's now smoking with a hole in it.
"I don't know..." I say trailing off.
"Exactly, you can do the same as her, maybe even more." He explains.
"How? I'm human."
"No not really."
"Explain. Everything."
"Alright. So through a gate there's a world of Fae and angels. Each Fae has a season, that their born in. Born in spring your a spring faerie. Born in summer, your a summer faerie-"
"So what are you?" I interrupt him.
"I'm an autumn Fae, I was born in May."
"Oh ok, continue"
" Winter is the most uncommon, therefor, the most powerful. Summer is the most common. They're used for guards and protection. Spring is second most common. And they're used for entertainment. Spring and summer have about the same power limitations but spring can create things like images and illusions a bit quicker than summer. Autumn is used for potion making and or guards. Very few are used for guards and they are only allowed to if they graduate secondary potion making and the same training as summer."
"Like you?"
"Yes, winter Fae usually rule the lands and have the most power. They can do almost anything that any type of Fae can. Then there's the outcasts. Outcasts are faeries gone bad or a Fae born on the 29th if February, as that only happens every 4 years. The only reason why they're outcast is because the first outcast was born on that day, and was bad. Ever since then all the Fae born on that day were disrespected and all turned bad."
"Oh."
"Our current leader, Queen Layisha, once had a child, an autumn. But the only problem is that she wasnt good. She ruined everything and then ran away. Her name unknown to the people. The queen then had a second daughter, who was a winter. She was heir to the throne but was taken on her 6th birthday. We believe that it was her older sister who was jealous and envied her little sister, who then took her to the mortal realm. The gate was found open the day after she was taken, that's how we came to our conclusion."
"So how did you know I was Fae? Did you know me?"
"I could sense it. Plus those bright blue eyes don't come naturally and you're starting to get bright blue roots. I don't know how you don't already have them though," I touch my root of my hair.
"Blue? Why?"
"It's just a colour your either, born with, or things you eat or do. For example. I was born with light green eyes and roots but turned darker as I got older."
"Oh, wait, how old are you?" I ask suddenly
"17"
"Oh, I'm 15." I state
"When's your 16th?" He asks suddenly.
"Urm, I don't really know... I was adopted no one knew my real birthday so... All they knew was I was 6 when I was found. So they just put my birthday as the 2nd of August."
"Oh, ok that was the same day as the queens youngest."
"Oh, but thats probably not my real birthday." I say
"Yeah probably not."
"So what now..." I say after a few seconds of silence.
"I don't know, the sun rises in about an hour so, I suppose I could train you to see your abilities." He suggests.
"Yeah ok" I smile, trusting him.
