Ok I really wanted to start this book but updating will be slow. By the way Rhea is the first one and Mia is the second and this is what they look like at the current time this is happening. (Found this pic on the internet)

"There, done" I say as I finish the small drawing on my wrist.

It's a decorative feather in black ink.

I put my fountain pen back in the holder open the tan dusty door to the outside. There are Ilinx bustling about but it's to crowded to see my sister.

"LITTLE ROCK!!!" I call out once and once more.

"I'm here! I'm here!" I hear her say as she comes into view. I let out a sigh of relief.

"But I still don't see why you call me that" she says

"Because even the smallest rocks can cause the biggest ripples" I answer

"But why me?" She questions as we walk down the dusty road enclosed by The Wall with our feet in sync.

"Well let's see", I pretend to give it hard thought, "you convinced the market man to give the homeless man an apple. Then the homeless human did a favor to the market human and you caused that ripple of goodness."

She giggles "that was sweet but it's 'did a favor for' not 'to'."

"Well I'm still getting use to the human speech" I say and put my hands in the air in surrender.

The bell sounds over head that signals dinner.

"Come on Rhea!" She says and runs off towards ore parents house.

"Little Rock! Wait up!" I call after her.

"So how did you two sleep? Our mom, Shelly, asks as we walk through the door.

"Great I had a dream of riding on a giant ladybug!" Mia answers.

I shiver in disgust. I hate ladybugs.

"And you, Rhea?" She asks me.

"Just dreamless darkness" I answer.

"And how was the rest of your day?" She asks

"Probably getting into trouble" our dad, Jayden, says.

"Well I don't know about Rhea but I had an amazing day. I went to the human fair!" She says.

"THE HUMAN FAIR!" Dad exclaims "YOU KNOW THATS DANGEROUS!" He yells in a tone that could make even the evilest demons flinch. And I did. Or at least that's what the humans would called us if they found us out.

But not all of is are demon like. Mom and Mia aren't. Me and dad are another story.

"BUT SHE IS FINE ON HER OWN!" I yell back defending my sister.

"IF YOU WANT TO GO NEXT TIME YOU GO WITH ME!" He yells at Mia, ignoring me.

She's on the brink of tears and I take her hand and lead her out of our parents home.

We walk down the dusty path but who am I kidding, everything's dusty here. It all looks tan.

I walk her to her house and the door opens for her. We walk in and I get two apples from the counter. I put one in my mouth and hand one to Mia.

"Rhea-a w-will you s-stay with-th me tonight" she hiccups when she talks when she's sad.

"Sure Mia. You go put on some comfy clothes and I'll get the food from mom and dad.
