"mom?" I asked looking at her. my mother had long, wavy black hair and green eyes, her skin was fair. I looked nothing like her and my father died a month before I was born so I never knew him.
"Yes Ava?" She replied reading her book.
"Mom i'm twelve years old, and still don't know why I don't look like you. Am I adopted?" I asked her. She looked up at me now.
"Baby. yes, but I love you vary much. your mother needed my help. she was only eight-teen when she had you. I was in my thirty's when I got you since I couldn't have kids. your mother died about two months after you were given to me." She said. I looked down shocked about the truth. Ava's mother felt bad about lying to her about how she got her but it was to protect her.
"oh okay mommy." I say then got off the couch, and went to the bathroom to wash up or bed. looking in the mirror I saw my white colored hair that barely came down to my shoulders, and blue eyes. "who would have given up me? but then again she did die after two months."I thought as I washed my face. going to my bed room I felt uneasy like I just couldn't be inside, but it was late so I just went to bed. around midnight, one a'clock I woke up to someone screaming from down the hall. I jump out of bed and ran down the hall to my mothers room. I saw the door open, and looked in. The room was pitch black but I could see movement, and knew it wasn't my mother. This shadow of the night had long things hanging off from its back. I ran off to my room and locked my door behind me. my heart was racing like a heard of horses. hearing foot steps out side my room I just looked at the door. Tears over flowed my eyes, but I knew I couldn't make a sound or I would be next.
"request!" a low voice rumbled in the hall. "who? what?" I thought and tried to keep quite when my laptop's messenger went off.
"Shit," I whispered then hared footsteps run off own the hall, then glass breaking. I slowly sneaked to my mothers room and turned on the light. I didn't see a body, or my mother.
"Mom?!" I asked scared as my tears over flowed onto the carpet. I found a note on the bed. it said, "Ava, i'm sorry I lied about adopting you from your mother, I found you on my door step sixteen years ago almost seventeen, years ago. I don't know where you came from or where your mother was. All I knew was your name, Avalin fay. try to fine your mother I know I did but I just couldn't find her place. then you called me mommy. I love you to the moon and back my little fay field." just as I finish, I felt safe, like some one was hugging me, but it feels like some one staring.
"Okay my name is Avalin Fay. let's see what now maybe go to the town's magic guild and put a request in." I say and looked at the time, "Must be some one there by now, maybe even Nico Red-cliff can help me." I added. Taking the note and changing into a white spaghetti strap tank top, a pink short skirt, and sneaker's. Then I headed to the guild called Dragons edge. Once I get there I saw it was seven am. Opening the door I looked around. Nico looked at the door and saw a little girl around Ace's age. The more he thinks the more the girl looked like Ace.
"Ace! oh wait your not Ace sorry i'm drunk you look like him tho." A man told me, i slinked away a little, being way shy for my own good, "Awe hey Nico! wheres that kid that fallows you every where?" The man asked.
"how the hell am i to know? he comes and goes, but this is the longest that I haven't seen him." Nico replied. I shyly stood where I was. a young boy with white hair ran into the guild and bumped into me making him and I fall.
"ah!" I called.
"ugh." He said, once he landed he looked at me, "What the hell are you doing in the middle of the door way?!" he yelled. I jumped at this and looked down. I had twisted me ankle when I fell and it hurt bad, so my eye watered.
"Hey! Ace don't yell at her for you not paying attention look she's crying!" A woman said angrily. the boy called Ace looked down, "Hey sweetie you okay?" The woman asked me sweetly, a yelp escaped me when I to stand, my ankle was swollen and red.
"Hold on you cant stand. Nico! can you pick her up and bring her to the hospital beds?!" The woman asked, he nodded. when he picked me up the paper that I found in my mother room fell out of my pocket. The boy who bumped me picked it up and read who it was for.
"Avalin Fay?" He asked out loud.
"Don't read that! give it back to me! thats all I have of my mother!" I screamed panicked.
"You Avalin?" He asked.
"Yes you Idiot!" I yelled mad. some people gasped when I said that since no one called Ace that or ever mad fun of him.
"Take it." He said giving it back. I sighed holding the paper close. "So avalin your last name is Fay? and in the fay's that died five years ago?" Ace asked. I looked at him.
"I was told that my mother died two months after I was born but this letter says nothing of that and that I was just left on the woman i called mom's door step twelve years ago. why?" I asked.
