the seven moons [series 1 book 1]

chapter 3 [dark magic]

     "H-hey what's going on what are you staring at" Thomson was staring at Monica like she was crazy. "Them" Monica pointed to the patrol men. 

     One of them had red and black ears. This man looked like he was new to the job, he was also a younger man. He looked about 21. He was skinny and tall he looked very tall about 6.1 feet tall. he had black sleek hair. The other 2 men looked older they both had brown hair. One of them had brown curly hair he had a whole head of it. This guy had a natural blonde tail and ears. He had tall ears and on the inside there were fluffy like a cloud. His tail almost hit the ground, his tail was smooth and looked soft. And the other man had brown sleek hair. It shined in the sun it almost looked like blonde. His ears were the brightest sleet gray, and his short curled up tail with the smallest bit tipped with black.

     "What's wrong with them, there only patrolling the village" Thomson was a little concern with her words.

    "Nothing" Monica could not let her know about her past and who she is, she will turn her in to the police, as what they say. 

     The men started walking towards them. Monica felt scared they were coming for her. "C-come on, we have to go". Monica tried pulling Thomson to leave, but before she knew it there were in front of her. 

     "hello i am officer Will, i have not seen you around before, what's your name" the one with red and black ears and black sleek hair greeted.

     "I-I i am Monica" 

     "What a nice name"

     "T-thank you, we have to go"

     "Ok you two stay safe now"

     "We will" Monica and Thomson walked off. Monica turned around and saw the sun setting. "H-hey Thomson, i kind of got to get home".

     "Oh ok, well i will see you tomorrow then" Thomson smiled.

     "See you tomorrow Thomson" as Monica slipped away in the bushes.

      Monica slowly started to walk back to her den. That was great Monica good work. "That was not ok there were cops".

     Ok yeah, but everything else was great. We have a big day ahead of us Monica so you should get to sleep. Cody spoke as he flew out of a tree from somewhere landing in front of Monica.

     "Ok monica lets go," Cody waved a wing in a gesture to follow. Cody flew up and started to fly away

     "W-Wait, Cody i cant fly" Monica was jumping telling him to come back. Cody flew back landing in front of her with out fail. Cody was good at flying, landing, turning and more. I mean he is a bird after all, but he was half human.

     "Uhhhh weeeell" Cody scratched the back of his neck.

     "What?" Monica questioned.

     "Well, you can fly" Cody stated.

     "WHAT!" Monica yelled.

     "Yeaaaah, you just gotta access your wings"

     "What?"

     "So let me explain, you have wings right. So if you just feel them, they are another part of your body. You can feel your body, sooo if you can just feel them you can make them sprout." Cody easily explained.

    Monica tried to feel them but she couldn't. "Mmmm, i cant" Monica groaned in frustration.

     "Ok so pretend like you have wings, which you do, but pretend like you have them, and you can fly high in the sky." Monica thought hard, she thought of beautiful white angel wings. They shine and the feathers are so soft and warm. They are large wings she could cover up in like a blanket.

     Slowly her wings started to sprout, Cody's jaw almost dropped to the floor. Her wings were unique, they were angel but not normal angel. They slowly started to sprout, her wings were black but the roots of the feathers were a dark red. Cody had never seen anything like it. No normal angel wing would look like that. Is Monica a fallen angel, no, no there is no way.

     "Are they done?" Monica opened one eye. She opened the other and glanced at Cody. "Are y-you ok," she stuttered.

     "Y-your wings, there so unusual." Cody stared blankly at her. Monica peeked at her back to take a look, she almost freaked. "I-its ok Monica, there just wings, there still beautiful."

     "What are you talking about, there perfect" Monica hopped and danced around, realizing she was catching air with them. She flew back a little from the wind pushing her back. Monica flapped them a little, she flew forward, she fell.

     "Wow, i mean there better than normal white shinny soft angel wings," Cody confessed.  Monica waved her hand to the sky, a black mist came out.
