On the day you turn ten, legends say you get an animal companion. Except what most people don't know, is that they are real. Only a selected few get one. I remember the day I got mine.
I was sitting at the dinner table finishing my cake, and waiting to open presents. I knew which one I wanted to open first; the gold leaf box, with a shining silver bow. I knew it had my companion in it. Everyone in my family has had one, and I knew I would too. At last, my mum yelled "Present time!" And I scurried over to my presents. I found the one I wanted to open and set it down on the table. I carefully undid the wrapping, and put the bow on my head. When it was unwrapped, I looked at the box in awe. I couldn't wait to see what my companion would be! I gingerly took off the lid and looked inside with eagerness written all over my face. I took a look and shrieked.
"S-snake!" I yelled at the top of my lungs. I backed away towards the wall, and was astonished at my parents laughter. Why are they laughing? Is getting scared by a snake funny to them? I turned to the box again, looking at the rising gold snake. When we connected eyes, I felt a spark.
