The Turtlelight Saga: Turtlelight

As I gazed into the cold eyes of my killer, I couldn't help but think he looked like a turtle. Then I couldn't help but think why a turtle would want to kill me.

"I know what you are." I said. "You're impossibly silent, you have a shell, and you smell like the sea."

The turtle kept his bravado and remained silent. I could hear his voice in my soul though.

"No, I'm not afraid." I replied.

He put me on his back and started running at a frighteningly slow speed. In the sunlight, I watched him not sparkle, but glow!
