Change (on hold)

The Robed Lady

Hi, my name is Emma, I am 13 and my home is the flower orphanage. It may sound pretty, happy, lovely modern orphanage but it's a nightmare its old, dusty, creaky wooden floors and they're lots of holes in the rusty steel Roof. Everyone that comes here thinks its hunted so not much kids get adopted. I gave this place a nickname the forgotten orphanage and now that's what everyone here calls it. I have lived here all my life.

The owner of the orphanage is Miss Blu, you would think that she is mean but she is the nicest person i've ever meet so lovely, kind and sweet she spends all her time running around taking care of us.

In the orphanage I help Miss Blu a lot, like cleaning the youngsters rooms and playing with them this is mainly because I'm the oldest here so I get all the chores.

As I mentioned before my name is Emma. I don't have a last name because I don't know my past family and I have never been adopted. Miss Blu said that she found me outside the door step all lonely and scared inside an old cardboard box. With me inside the box and a letter saying 'the time will come'...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

At the moment we are standing in a line in front of this girl with strange taste of fashion, she is wearing a black robe and has black long wild hair. Most of us have no clue what to do because the last time we stood in the choosing room was 3 years ago. I try to make a good impression and as she walks past she stares at me with her dark brown eyes for several seconds where as she only stared at the others for a couple of seconds. When she walked past Miss Blu through to the office she gave a quick sharp nod.

As Miss Blu was talking to the lady I was chatting with Sarah and Macka. They are twins born 2 years after me.

Sarah is known as the cute girl that always gets her way, she has curly light brown hair and Emerald green eyes.

Then there is Macka the trouble maker of the group, he has long dark brown hair and light blue eyes.

Last person in our group is me, Sarah and Macka call me the intelligent and caring of the group, but I still have a lot if attitude. I have super dark brown hair and I have a mixture of blue, green and brown eyes. Sarah gave me the nickname of 'rainbow eyes' when we first meet.

Flashback
I was swinging on the swing peacefully as the sunset was going down, everything was quiet just how I like it. Then suddenly a scream of help broke the silence. I got up and ran to the noise, it was a young girl up in a tree.
The girl yelled down in terror "help me please, my twin brother tricked me and said my teddy was up in the tree, PLEASE help!". As I got the girl down the first thing she said is you have rainbow eyes.

After a few hours we had already told each other our deepest darkest secret and all of our adventures at this forgotten orphanage. Sarah was telling the story about her and her brother nearly getting adopted but then Macka bought his pet rat into the car and you can guess what happened, they were dropped off here again. Just as the story ended Miss Blu called us in for dinner.

After dinner me and Sarah connected our beds together and talked and talked and talked. We finally feel asleep and I realized this is the first friend I've ever made. That night I'd remembered everything that has happened on the best day of my life.
(Flashback ended)

After 10 minutes Miss Blu comes out and asks for me to come speak to her. I nod and look at Sarah she smiles and gives me a nod.

As I walk in to the office it's dead silent, I sit down in the black and white checked chair. Miss Blu explains that the robed lady would like to talk with me for a while, to make a decision wether to adopt me or not.

MissBlu walks out and I'm about to experience something I've never done, speak to someone in the outside world.
The lady says "it's very nice to speak to me" and I reply "same with you".
She then starts pacing and mumbling things like "you have been very naughty... I knew your mother... Oh she never really liked me... and I never liked her... so I guess she won't mind if I do this...".

Then suddenly she pulled out a stick and mumbled something. I felt a shock of pain, then I could keep feeling more and more pain, I screamed and tears were running down my face. The door banged open and I heard a scream, I recconised it to be Miss Blu's scream. Suddenly everything went black...
