I See Fire (On Hold Will Be Back)

Charcoal girl

" look at her, look at her hair it's like a dirty charcoal colour"

" let's call her charcoal girl, she so ugly!" and her name was charcoal girl forever, people had actually forgotten her real name but she knew and she said it every morning when she looked in her mirror "You are the one and only Finley Faren remember that" then she had to face the name calling and punches and beat downs she didn't understand why every one hated her but they did she tried to build a wall around her emotions like her dad told her to, but they found a hole and she hated it even the teachers were on the kids side.  Finley was eleven then.

5 years later

" Get it to recess kids" Mrs.White announced her glasses slopes down as she looked to Finley "that means you too Charcoal girl, now go on the calling will be soon and you don't want to miss your time to be outside do you?"

"Yes Miss"Finley headed out into the grey coloured world.

Now a little bit of history on the Calling, long ago in Alabtha every one had there own special power, one day a couple of troubled kids used there powers to try to over throw Alabtha but the court fought hard and won now and they took away everyone's powers untill every teenager in the same grade turns sixteen and their power is announced in front of everyone and they call it the Calling.

"Hey charcoal girl come look at this" said Piper the meanest girl in the school, so why was she doing this "don't just stand there, come on!"

"All right I am coming" Finley hated to have to leave her book but she walked over

"Look a beautiful flower that's me" she points to a bright coloured flower then points to an ugly grey wilting one "look, that one is you" then she slapped Finley across the face "there now you'll have a bit of colour!" Everyone laughed Finley felt her cheek, something wet, she looked at her hand there was  deep red blood at the tip of her fingers, anger her fits clenched the beautiful flower went up in flames and the flames spread across the field.

"Wait you aren't supposed to have powers they were taken away" Piper said as she backed away.

Finley unclenched her fits a small red flame burned in her hand and she smiled oh the things she could do!
