Days of a remarkable recovery, I am back on my feet. Robee and I are walking deeper into the forest away from our secret little tree house. "Who's your favorite Hybrid so far?" Robee asks me. "Good question. Arrow Fire knows how fight. Annie Blue is very sparkling. Opelila Night is like a night's beauty and I don't know what else to say." I reply. "My favorite is Meorn Bling." Robee says. "He was beautiful and nice to me. He's always there for me. He's my protector. You have a Hybrid protector as well. He or she will come to you when you're ready." "How did your protector come to you?" I asked. "On my last day of being a Patriot, I was meditating on the hill in the dark. I started to leave and felt like I was being followed, however it wasn't dreadful. I've turned around. A Hybrid was following me. He shapeshift into brown hair with blue highlights and grey eyes. He was wearing a Roman wardrobe. I felt connected to him and he hugged me. I never felt so much happiness in my life. Meorn Bling was his name. "Your time will come when you're ready. Right now, I'll be here for you." He says then vansihed." Robee tells the story. "Devine," I reply. "Especially when he likes to play with you. Don't be stupid or afraid or else you might mess up.," Robee commented.

Crack. I hear footsteps cracking a tree branch. Robee and I stopped then looked around. "You see anything?" I asked. "Negative." He replies. We continued to walk again. Crack. There it is again. We've stopped. "Sounds like it came from your side, Robee." I said. "It did." Robee replies. I've looked at his side of the trees. Bushes flooded the view. I see a white cloth in the crack of the bush. "Huh?" I let out.

Out of nowhere, a little girl in a brown dress tackled me to the ground. She was shaking in fear. "It's okay, we won't harm you." I sit up. The girl lead out a small yell. She started to run on the path. I got up. Robee and I started chasing her. "Does she fear us?" I asked. "I don't know, probably because we are outcasts by the Brooks." Robee replies. "Looks like this girl's family was totally into the Brook." We've kept on running towards a river. The girl tripped and fell. The water was moving fast and high tide. "It's heading to the small water fall." Robee points to the right. I can hear the stream falling and crashing into another part of the river.

I have to save the girl. I jumped into the river. "Help! I can't swim!" I hear the girl's cries. She kept on getting pulled into the water. Pushing along with the current. She kept on getting closer and closer to the waterfall. I finally was able to grab her. I pulled her head against my shoulders. She was gasping. However, the current was pushing me closer to the waterfall. I saw a branch near the waterfall. I roll my eyes. "Oh dear." I breathe out. "Girl, whatever you do, don't look behind you. I won't let go." I say. The current got me close enough to held onto the branch. We are just a two feet from the waterfall. Robee was on the other side and where I jumped into the water.

"Annie Blue, help us." I call out my first Hybrid. I started to hear cracking on the other edge of the branch. It's about to let go. In front of my eyes, a Hybrid appears and shapeshift into a woman known as Annie Blue. She was holding a staff. She points towards the river. "Element of Water, I command you to stop moving until the humans are out!" Annie yells out. The water's current stop bashing. It was calm and still. Annie Blue walks towards me. She lifts the girl up. The girl was terrified. I use the branch to push me out of the water. "It seems the girl was put into the mind full of Brook lies too much. She's deluded." Annie says. "Take her to your secret tree house and explain this young one what's really going on." Annie gives me the girl before she fades into blue mist.

I turned around the water begans to bash the current again. "Thank you Annie Blue." I breathe out. Robee was using his wings to fly above the river then lands next to me. "Didn't want to get my wings wet plus that was really brave to save that little girl." Robee commented. I smiled. He begans to grab onto me and fly back to the other side to which he was on. I carry the little girl back to our secret tree house.

I clean the girl in my own bathroom hottub. She didn't scream out. The girl was humble. "Thanks for saving me back there," she whispers. "No problem, at least you didn't get hurt. Why are doing out here in the Realm of Hybrid? You from Brook?" I asked. "I ran away from home. They were forcing me to believe Brook is my protector and always will be." The girl replies. "It became too much, I ran away into the forest. I know this was the Realm of Hybrid, a forest. I thought it was going to be hard at first; but after you save me, I started to be switched." "I ran away almost like a week ago, my name is Mya Leeh. I ran away because everyone counted me as a outcast because I've told them the truth that I was attacked by a Brook. A Hybrid saved me from it. One of the Hybrids helped me out and I've met Robee. I enjoy the Realm of Hybrid more than Brook. I don't have a second thought of going back." I say. I finished washing her hair with conditioner. "Hey, I forgot, what's your name?" I asked. "Anaya Brook," the girl replies. "They changed my last name 'cause my family believes that I am the daughter of a Brook." "Sounds stupid." I commented. "They think I'll be the source of their protection." Anaya adds in. "Guess what? It's full of lies. Never listen to them. They were deluded just like you once. The girl you saw with the long aqua hair?" I asked. "Yeah," Anaya nodded. "That was a Hybrid." I reply. "I thought Hybrids are malevolent and will kill us." Anaya says. "It's a myth. Hybrid saved you." I reply. "For once, a real actual bird came in and saved me and you." Anaya says with a smile. I smiled in response.

I put Anaya with some new clothes. Robee showed her new resting place. She enjoyed it. "Don't be out of it yet," Robee says. "Brooks will be coming to search for her and possibly you again." "I know, we will let upon the Eyes of the Forest or the Hybrids or possibly ourselves." I reply. "I am not afraid of nature itself!"
