My name is Nynx Alexandra Caelem. Most peoples wings come at a random time. Sometimes they come when you will meet your love. Soulmates have the same wings, other than that everyone's wings are unique. There are some who never grow wings. They are called taws. There are also people who have black, brittle wings. They have lost their love. And me? Here's my story.
"Nynx!" My mother shouted at me. "You'll be late for school!" "I'm up." I groan as I pull myself out of bed. I get up, get dressed and pull my dark brown hair into a messy bun. I gulp down a bowl of cereal. I say goodbye to my mom as I head off to school. It's not a long walk, only 5 minutes.
"Hey flightless!" I hear a voice call. I was pushed to the ground and my glasses flew off my face. Chad landed in front of me gracefully. His light grey wings flapped a few times after he landed. Chad punched my stomach before stepping on my glasses. Then he flew off. Luckily I had a spare pair in my rucksack.
Once I got to school I was greeted by my best friend, Maverick. Maverick doesn't have his wings yet either, so we normally get picked on together. School went pretty normally today, only when I went to my locker I found a note.
The note read: Meet me at the back of the school. 3 o'clock sharp. Come alone" I would have been sceptical but it was in Maverick's hand writing.
I waited behind the school and checked my watch; 2:58 wow. Maverick's never late to anything! I hear footsteps coming around the corner. I saw the outline of a tall, well-built person. They were certainly not Maverick.
