Elf Bound

Chapter one- Alarm clocks

Ellie's POV
My eyes cracked open to the blaring of my shiny red alarm clock shouting right into my earlobe. I think that if alarm clocks could speak right now mine would probably be shouting at me to "get your lazy ass out of bed". Mornings were my nemesis, the way whenever your in a dream your free and are you imagine  the  most beautiful creation and then you wake up and hit reality hard. And every morning waking up is just a reminder of my superficial averageness. I'm still just a boring plain girl, and honestly I hate it. But when you spend so long being hidden in the shadows you end up not knowing who you really are or what you could be.

Anyway enough of my self pity. If I don't get up I won't have time for breakfast and I'm not the kind of girl who would ever miss breakfast with out one hell of a fight. That's probably the reason I haven't caught a single bus the entire term.....

I managed to pull myself or of bed with the encouragement from my grumbling and growling stomach. I pulled on some shorts and a tank top and ran downstairs in time to see my blonde haired brother walking out the door. Shoot. I was definitely going to miss the bus if i didn't get going pronto. I grabbed a piece of toast quickly slathering it in peanut butter jelly and ran out the door after my brother. I was going to be late, again.

My brother was one of those annoying guys , the ones who only flaw is that they have no flaws. Which is really annoying. He has surfer style blonde hair and baby blue eyes which are one of the prime reasons for his multitudes of girlfriends. And he is also frustratingly smart and in the soccer team. And I'm the exact opposite, I'm more of the nerd who would only be known for being Toby's little sister.

I mutter curses at my brother into my toast as I follow him out of the door and towards the bus.And just as I get there it pulls out with my brother sitting smugly inside.Damn him. Guess i was walking today.Again.

Just as i finally reach the front gate of school a bell shrills from inside. Crap. If I don't run im gonna get slaughtered by my teacher Mrs. Black, she's one of those teachers who doesn't take anything from anyone and she would be like a total badass except for the fact I was one of the people who seemingly always got butchered by her for not doing a single thing. Sprinting of into the main building I run straight into a brick wall. Falling onto my bum I can already feel the bruise forming above my left eye, way to start the day. Looking up I'm staring into cold forest green eyes. Blushing I try and stand up which only results in me falling on the bum again and I mentally kick myself for embarrassing myself again in front of a stranger. And just as I stand up I actually get a look at the stranger .Standing looking of me , I kid you not the most scary man I've  ever seen stands in front of me. Thick white hair, piercing green eyes, piercings covering his face,taller than me (which is saying a lot as I'm 5'9)he is muscular but in an over the top body builder kind of way. And he is staring at me as if I was an annoying bug he wanted to squish dead."Mind where your going."his voice is sharp and full of annoyance as he glared at me from underneath thick long white lashes. I stutter a quick apology and run to homeroom as quickly as possible, away from the peculiar stranger.

I arrived in class late and got shouted at and got a warning for a detention. All I did was sigh and slump down in a chair at the back of the classroom. Man it was gonna be a long day. Waking out of maths which had been the most achingly boring lesson of my life I ran to my locker, grabbing my books I shut it and was about to walk away when a screeching voice said from behind me. "Where you going nerd? I thought hey took the trash out on Thursday, they obviously left you behind!" The queen bee said and cackled with laughter. Her name was Chloe and she was beyond popular. Today she had on hey signature acidic pink lipstick paired with fake blonde hair and a short skirt and there you have it. I mumbled something like "I'm going to History" as I tucked a strand if brown hair behind my ear and tried to push my way past her. No such luck. She pushed me hard into the lockers and laughed with her friends as she stalked away hips swaying. Nobody bothered to help me as it would  be committing social suicide. Signing I gathered my books and ran to History. The day finished without anything out of the ordinary and I took the bus home did my homework and collapsed in bed exhausted with the day.

Adam's POV
Waking through the empty corridors of the house my eyes immediately adjusted to the darkness. I was here to collect the boy , Toby. He was meant to be the key to everything , a saviour. I had one mission: kidnap him and bring him to the castle. Rounding the corner I wish I had checked which bedroom was his, I knew he was this side of the house but I didn't know if he was in the left or right room. I needed to be quick as a rouge had been sited near here and we couldn't take the risk of him finding Toby and possibly killing him. I quickly made up my mind and pulled the doors on the right open only do be blinded by the midst beautiful aura I've ever seen. Yes, I can see auras all elves can say we can tell the true personality of somebody. Most humans have dull brown auras which shows saved whilst younger children's are usually a light pink showing happiness and ignorance. But this girls aura was stunning, shades of every color was there and it shimmered like gold. Auras basically encircle somebody with the color but hers splayed out, the whole room was lit up. Her hair was splayed out across her pillow, she has brown hair which just flyers past her shoulder, her eyes were shut and he wished he could pull them open and look at them. He just couldn't pull his eyes of her beauty. And then it all came crashing down on him. He had to get the boy or his whole kingdom would fall. Tearing his eyes away from the girl he ran out of the room and into the other quickly locating the boy. He had a pretty green aura but it was dull and ugly compared to the girls. He quickly poured a drop of sleeping solution into the boys mouth and hauled him over his shoulder. He ran out the door but stopped at the girls door, he couldn't leave her. Opening the door once again he had no more sleeping solution so just picked her up bridal style and pulled her out of the room.
