THE WOODS?

CHAPTER 6

❄☁

I kept flying higher higher. I was rotating in the Bee-nardo for like ten minutes.

I closed my eyes in fear and kept praying not to get stunk, fall or DIE.

I stopped feeling my hair moving on my face. It was moving upward like a lit candle. My hoodie, shirt was filled with air.

My eyes kept shaking as I tried to open them. Lo and behold I was FALLING!

I screamed like I never had before. My tears didn't flow down my checks, rather it was moving upward. I flapped my hands like a bird, cried, screamed then lost hope.

To make things worst, it seemed as if I were dead already. You might be wondering why I made that statement.

The wolf was in the sky with me. It looked confident and I looked like I'm going to collapse. There was this little bird that I loved it's wings so much.

The bird's wings were multicoloured. I kinda felt sad for the bird being dragged away from its family.

Do you know the funny thing? It feels like I'm flying not falling besides for my hair making its way out of my hood.

I pouted my lips making funny sounds trying to gain the wolf's attention.

It looked at me with a bored face. Even if I am going to land somewhere, a wolf as a companion is not too bad.

Wolfy... Doggy... Creaturerrryyy.... Em..Icy?...
I tried calling it with many names but it would just glance at me then turn away.

I miss mum..crystal..laura and Lewis. I sighed.

The wolf made a puppy like sound when I mentioned Lewis' name.

Do you know Lewis? I nicely asked as my body kept circling in the weird tornado.

It tilted its head and made another sound.

I guess I've brought up a conversation we can enjoy. I chuckled not minding that I'm gisting  with an animal that is four times bigger than me.

My hoodie flapped continuously making me hit it in annoyance. "So... Where do you know Lewis from?" I asked.

It growled, howled and make another sound that I don't know the word to use.

But surprisingly, I understood what it said.

It said " I have known him for some years now".

Wow.... I guess I'm the first human to speak wolf, I giggled.

How many years exactly? I excitingly asked.

I don't know how humans count their years exactly, but I think eighteen. It replied howling.

Eighteen! I unknowingly screamed. Lewis is sixteen! The way you count years are way different. Maybe I would get the right year by dividing eighteen by two,three,six or something.

My hair stopped flying upwards, so as my hoodie. It was now down.

"I don't understand this stupid tornado!" I yelled. "Are we flying or falling?!".

Calm down little girl...the wolf licked my hand gaining my attention.

Eww! What was that for! I glared at the creature.

I was just trying to calm you down by gaining your attention. Are you okay?  The wolf asked.

"Yeah I'm OK... No I'm just fine!"
My voice kept getting louder as I spoke, like I was shouting. " I was supposed to leave this place for just....JUST two weeks..but no...i had to be sucked into a swap of bees making a stupid tornado!" I laughed worriedly " I'm sure my mum is freaking out that I've disappeared for an hour...or maybe I've been here longer".

"Oww! " I cried when I tried putting my hand through the walls of the twirling wind but all I got was a reddish hand.

There was this super uncomfortable feeling like I was falling upside down while facing backwards.
