Rise

Chapter 1

Hey guys it's Amber!!!! Back at you with another hopefully good book!  Leave comments and vote if you think I should continue after this chapter! Are your fingers crossed? Alrighty then here we GOOO!!!!!

                   When I was little I started to have nightmares. I think. But not just when I was asleep,it happened when I was awake too. I would be walking down the hallway and wake up in the library. (Think possession). I kept them to myself praying that no one ever caught me. Too bad, it didn't seem that my prayers were being answered. Three years after my first "daymare" I was caught. I was terrified as my elder brother Greg hauled me to my parents to tell them what had been happening those past few years. What I didn't plan on was walking into the middle of a  Council meeting that my parents were heading. You don't know me so let me introduce myself before I get into the drama. My name is Marie DelClaire. I am 14 years old now and have icy, bright, blue eyes and "flaming" red hair. My elder brother Greg also has the famous "flaming" red hair of the DelClaires but instead of mine and my mothers icy blue eyes he has the chocolate brown of my father. He is tall and lanky whereas I am short and medium size. We were both nerdy but where his talent was history and mine was life sciences. Our "special" talents were fighting (any and all), visions, etc. We could communicate and read each others' minds but we could only read other peoples' minds. But at the time of my daymares I had no idea nor clue about our "special" talents. Anyways I digress. When we walked into the Council meeting I tried squirming to get out of my brother's hold and couldn't. What I expected was for Greg to say/start a lengthy description on how worried he was about me disappearing at random times so he decided to follow me and caught me in the middle of a daymare. What I wasn't expecting was Greg to say two words to which my whole life would change. After bowing to my parents (why did he do that? It's not like we're royalty or anything...) he walked up to their thrown-like chairs (they must be pretty high up in whatever this Council is for.) and murmured "It's started." Those words despite being quiet echoed around the hall. And then there was chaos.

So..... How was it?? Should I stop now or should I keep this going?? Please leave any comments (good or bad) as to what you thought about this chapter... And can someone beta this for me? I have my friends check it but as I'm writing these chapters I add and take things away... ANYWAYS this is obviously set in the past and you are getting your first look at Marie's old life. Love y'all!!

XOXOXO ,Amber
