Amaryllis (Ash)

The sign read "If life gives you lemons make lemonade... Just Kidding! If life gives you lemons squirt them in people's eyes." But where I was? Nothing could tell me that. I looked around studying tall oak trees were reaching up into the crystal blue sky, a mist surrounded the forest. Just then something moved out of the corner of my eye what was it?...

"ASH!" Miss Hunt shouted.

I jerked up surprised "Yes?" I mumbled meekly

"I said that class was dismissed" Miss Hunt rolled her eyes still stacking the books on her desk.

"oh um sorry miss bye" I quickly made my way out of the classroom my books in hand.

I pulled my green backpack onto my shoulder, and flipped my maroon hair out of my face, and ran to the bus stop wondering
'How was I in the middle of nowhere in like a clearing with huge trees all around, then at school? Was I was dreaming?'

The white and green bus stopped, I raced out and raced home, up the old wooden oak stairs to my room.

I flopped on my bed and pulled out my homework, still wondering about what happened.

When suddenly I was back in the clearing the sign was still there and the thing where was it?

I moved my head expecting to see my beautiful long maroon hair which I always wore down, but I saw nothing in terror I grabbed at my head thankfully my hair was only tied up on top of my head with two strips hanging down right in front of my pointed elf-like ears.

Just then a flash of black moved out of the corner of my eye again I turned around, but whatever it was it was trying to avoid me.

"Ash" mum called out "Please clean your room, your Aunt Ella and cousins are coming over"

"Okay" I stood up and started picking my clothes up off the floor, I am a really, really messy person.

What is happening to me? What was that black thing or person and why was it trying to avoid me? Was it trying to avoid me? Why do I change places and then come back to the real world? This is one adventure I would never forget.

*******

Suddenly I was back in the clearing the dark oak trees all around me, and that oh so beautiful clear blue sky.

I knew this time I wasn't going back to the other world.

Then I saw it a flash of silver, whatever it was it possibly had a sword, or at least a weapon of some sort. Without thinking I reached behind me and pulled a beautiful elfish bow and arrow, out of the leather quiver. I placed the arrow on the shelf on the bow and pulled the string back ready to fire.

It was like I have done this before, but I never took archery.

Then I heard a voice "What you have a bow?! That's is so unfair!"

It sounded like a male

"Who are you? And I will shoot" I stated trying to act like I wasn't scared but my fingers were shaking

"Okay, okay I come out but please don't shoot" The voice was now behind me.

I felt the cold sharp point of his sword on the back of my neck. My heart stopped for a second, then started racing. What should I do?! This person had a sword up to my neck and they could easily kill me! Then I realized I also had a sword.

"Turn around a drop your bow" He ordered.

I dropped my bow and the arrow on the ground, then and placed my right hand on the hilt, which was on my left. Slowly I drew my sword and turned around. I took him by surprise when I turned around "Clang!" Went the clash of the swords. His sword was now out of his hands and on the ground

"Hands up!" I ordered.

Then I looked at him

"Wh-what? You are a female?!" He looked shocked

"And you're a dwarf..." I trailed off

"Yeah but females can't fight.."

I sighed why does every male say that it is just so rude. Judging what people can do by their sex.

"Well" I started, raising my eyebrows studying the black-haired dwarf dressed in dull-colored clothes "This female can" I shot him a smile my hand on my hip.

"What are you?" He asked tilting his head trying to study me

Suddenly my memory came back and I knew exactly why I was here...
