So, for some reason I'm in a really big forest. Do I know where my house is? Not at all. Why did I get here? I don't know. Why do I feel as if I'm being navigated by a magical creature even though I don't believe in them? I don't know.

As I walk ahead I see the red, orange and yellow leaves fall from the tall trees.

I walk ahead as I see a strange creature being transformed in front of me. Made out of the leaves, and it looks exactly like a deer. As I get closer, a tornado of leaves are surrounding me and the leaf-created deer. As I reach my hand over, the wind starts picking up more and the tornado spins faster.

As I am only inches away of the deer. It does not move, just stands there as if a statue. I'm about to touch it when-

*Whoosh*

The whole tornado falls to the ground and to the sides. The deer disappears in mid-air. And I'm confused.

"Where are you Christina?!" I hear a voice echo through the forest.

I snap my head to the back of me and I feel the forest closing and something watching me. I see some piles of leaves move and I prepare myself for an attack. I send air to that direction with my wings and the leaves push up to the sky. And under the tree was a bunny.

"What are you doing out here, fella"

"You need to leave now, there is something dangerous here and it's not safe to practice here" the small bunny sends me a thought. Pretty cool huh? I can communicate with animals.

"But where else can I practice, this is the only spot where my powers actually work."

"Fear not, child. For you will learn soon enough that you have great control over your powers. I will tell you when it's safe to come again, okay?" The bunny says. Honestly, he sometimes sounds like some wise grand father.

"Fine..."

I put the bunny down and start walking to the biggest tree in this forest. Once I get there I move all the leaves to reveal the big wooden door.

I open the door to reveal the big whole in the ground. Around 100 yards deep. I jump in and go down. Feeling as if I was flying, I spread my arms. Soon enough I fall to the end of the whole with no harm. The reason of this is unknown.

As I open the door in the bottom, I see my parents small barn in the distance.

As I cover up the door with leaves, an annoying voice comes out behind me.

"CHRISTINA! I've been looking everywhere for you. Why do you always go into the woods like this?" My annoying older brother screams into my ear and grabs my shoulder which makes my reflexes turn on. Fight or flight. And I wasn't going to take flight. I grabbed his arm from my shoulder and flipped him in a karate motion. Hey, just cause I don't have my powers doesn't mean I can't defend myself.

"What do you want" I ask him while he's lying in the ground.

"Foods ready" he says in the ground groaning from the pain of the fall.

"I'm going, and suggestion, don't ever scare me like that again please." I say with an innocent smile.

"You are such a creepy sister, you know that, right?"

"Yes, I know" I said with a smug smile and started walking toward the house.
