A Miraculous Tale

Chapter 1

I can't believe I'm doing this, I thought watching the ground below being as small as it could be. I was moving to a new place, Mom told me all about it.

I can remember what she said:

"Guess what Taiko?" Mom said shouting up the stairs of our 2 story apartment

"What?" I shouted back down

"Now don't get mad at me, but..." She trailed off

"But what?" I asked already down the stairs looking into her deep chocolate brown eyes

"We're moving to Paris!" She squealed hugging me

"Mom." I chuckled, "You can't be serious."

"Oh but I am." she said pointing a finger at me, "go pack your things we're leaving in the morning"

After that I was mad at her for dropping the ball on me like that. Leaving all of my friends behind, and moving to a foreign country was least part of my worries. The fact that I was gonna be attending a new school was my biggest worry. Which means new mean girls, new teachers, and meeting complete strangers.

All I did was try to take my mind off of it, then my mind went straight to my dad not being here. My parents got in a divorce and Mom got the money and me in custody. A few weeks after that Mom decided to look for a place to move to. So that is how I got into this mess.

"We will be arriving into Paris, France very shortly so be ready to land." The pilot on the intercom said

Once we landed Mom immediately got into a taxi, with all of our luggage.

We drove up to our new home and I realized it looked a lot like the apartment back where I used to live, back in America.

"Huh?" Mom said looking at it, "is this the right place?" She mumbled

"Mom" I said, "it's the right place alright."

"Okay, I thought that we might've traveled back to where we started." Mom said her eyes becoming a pale brown but only for a split second, "Well let's head inside, the moving company said that they already brought the furniture and such."

After she said that I was already dashing up the steps, looking for my room. Once I found it I walked in and saw everything still in their boxes. I opened one and pulled out my piano awards, my mini figurines, my laptop hoping it wasn't broken or cracked, and a whole bunch of other stuff that were probably Mom's.

I found my coat and ran outside Mom said something but I didn't catch it. I felt the cool breeze on my face and started walking.

I felt something cold and wet on my head I looked up and saw clouds in the sky. Well just great I just move here and it starts to rain, I thought pulling my hood over my long bright neon pink hair. I kept walking and noticed a man looking around the age of 60 walking across the street I looked around to see if any cars were coming and from the corner of my eye I saw a big semi truck coming down the road, and not even making a hint of slowing down to a red light.

"Watch out!" I cried running and pushing the man out of the way. Just then I was knocked out cold from the impact of the semi hitting me.

*In a dream*

I saw the mysterious man that I had just saved mumbling something.
