Pixellia ~ Book 1

Chapter 1 ▪ Getting Ready

Pixity smiled and opened the door to the crystal hallway outside her room. She skipped out, closing the door behind her. She could hear muffled voices downstairs. Are Pixare and Pixinny home now? They're going to be so surprised when I show them this letter! 

She carried the piece of paper in her mouth as she kept skipping. She ran down the hard shiny steps and through the arch leading into the dining room, her tail swishing rapidly in excitement. Pixare turned around to look at her sister who was failing to hide her excitement. Pixinnys head shot up out of her salad that she was eating with Pixare. "What?" Pixinny asked. Pixity put the letter down on the table, and Pixare was the first to grab it as Pixinny let out a faint growl. Pixares eyes widened and she passed the letter to her sister silently. As she was reading the letter, Pixare finally spoke. "Oh.. Congrats!" She said, and Pixinny nodded. Pixity expected some more excitement from them.

 She took the letter and ran to find her travel bag. She was pretty spoiled, she had all different bags for different occasions. She decided to start packing, although it was in a week still. She left her food and some water out so she could put fresh food and cold water in instead when she was about to go. After she was done she skipped towards the door and put her bag down on the table near it, next to a potted Goldberry plant, that was stripped off the berries. The berries were used for curing sicknesses, and were very rare. Pixity never would of known where the berries that came from that plant are now. Maybe her mother tried to use it for Pixity's father, Pixat. He died a short while after Pixity was born. That means Pixare and Pixinny haven't even seen him once before.. She gasped and realized that she forgot to pack a blanket, she heard that the mountain was cold from a news reporter who used to never have powers. 

She went up to her room and searched for her fuzzy pink blanket. She grabbed it out of her and her sisters closet. She had the left side, then her sisters shared sides since they were twins and pretty much the same. Their side was messy, stuff was everywhere, and the occasional salad crumbs. She shook her head and ran downstairs, her paws echoed. She heard a faint sound of an opening door. Mother must be home! She picked up her pace and soon stood in front of her mother who was at the door. "Whats that?" She asked, looking at a box that her mother was carrying on her back. "Drinks for tonights party. And whats that?" Her mother eyed the letter in her daughters paw. Pixity quickly pushed it towards her so it was readable. "Hm," She looked up at Pixity. "I'm impressed. Thats your bag over there?" She asked. "Yep!" Pixity smiled. "Well then, good to see that at least one of my children are organized." She said as she walked away with the box still on her back. She didn't sound as if she was joking, her voice sounded stern. Pixity had to admit, that was a bit mean. But she was also surprised. Her mother payed the most attention to her sisters, and Pixity was never praised due to that. Or maybe it's just because they're troublemakers.

Wolfy turned into a cheetah again in a flash of red straight after gaining consciousness again. And Ashleaf and Roxxali knew where she was going, To their current home. After Wolfy ran away from her home for who knows why, they all agreed to go adventuring for the rest of their life, since Ashleaf and Roxxalis parents agreed on it. Every now and then they would check back there. The trio were always running around the huge world of Pixellia. 

Their current home was in an overly sized hollow bush. Wolfy got there in a few seconds, while the other two... You guessed it, way behind. The bushes around their home rustled quietly, because of the wind, as Wolfy sat waiting for her friends. I can't believe this!! Wolfy yelled in her head. She soon felt the need to jump around everywhere, and that she did.

A few minutes later, the two friends of Wolfy's came in, panting hard. "Can you stop doing that please..?" Roxxali muttered as she panted. "What? You mean this?" Wolfy ran around from here to there, very quickly due to her being in her cheetah form still. "Yes!" Ashleafs head shot up. "Fine..." Wolfy groaned, and she changed back to normal. Her grey fur bristling in the wind that escaped into the bush. "So, what now? Shouldn't you bring more things for the journey up the mountain?" Ashleaf asked Wolfy. "I think a blanket, a lantern, and a water bottle is good enough for me." Wolfy replied. "What about snacks, defense, and a coat?" Roxxali tried to convince Wolfy that she needed more, and Ashleaf nodded. "I mean, I don't think I'll need defense. If something comes to attack me I can just shapeshift into a tiger or something and claw them to death! Ok now I really want an Evixel to come and attack me now, I haven't killed one in a pretty long time!" Wolfy smiled and her tail wagged excitedly. The two sisters sighed. "Oh, and besides, where will I get the other stuff anyways?" Wolfy continued. "Well we can always go to our parent's house." Ashleaf said calmly, and Roxxali nodded rapidly. "Please Wolfy? We haven't been there in quite a while!" Roxxali insisted. "Well, I suppose that's true. Ok... Fine..." Wolfy hung her head down. "When should we go?" Ashleaf asked the two. Roxxali shrugged and Wolfy made an "I dunno" sound with her mouth. "How about tomorrow? I don't think we'll be able to walk all that way in this amount of time, and there isn't a bus that goes all the way to Fortixel village today." Ashleaf suggested. "Nah, we'll catch the bus to Crystelk town, the furthest we can get to Fortixel from the bus, and then you two can ride on my back after I turn into a cheetah and run to Fortixel Village!" Wolfy protested impatiently. "Oh why oh why didn't we think of riding on your back as a cheetah before?!" Roxxali whined. Wolfy laughed and Ashleaf nodded, both to Wolfys idea and the fact that they didn't think of riding on her back before instead of having to keep up. "Alright! Let's pack up, then go!" Wolfy jumped about.

"Uhh.. This? Maybe this? Well maybe this... Nah, I need this more than that." Snowy rushed from here to there in her small room, finding things that she should take on the journey. She was so excited and happy. Oh! I haven't even told my friends yet! Maybe I should go and do that now before I forget. Snowy thought, and rushed out of her room before even finishing packing her bag. She ran past her mother who was reading the newspaper again, and she rushed out the door. She didn't even know who to tell first. Candy! She rushed over to where her identical friend lived, and knocked on the wooden door. It suddenly burst open, causing Snowy to jump in suprise. There Candy stood. "SNOWYYYYYYY!!!" Candy realized and she hugged her friend. "Come in!" Candy dragged her friend in her house. They probably had the nicest house in the town, it was so nice... Candy stopped dragging Snowy when she got to the living room. There was a nice warm fireplace with soft comfy couches and fluffy cozy pillows. Snowy was jealous of the things they had. "So tell me! Did you get picked for getting powers? I mean, don't get me wrong, I do doubt it, but-" Candy said excitedly, but got cut off by Snowy. "Uhh, yes! I did!" Snowy said happily. She never though she would see herself replying with that to that sort of question. "OMGG!! I'm so happy for you! Now we can actually have snow fights! Well, thats if you get the snow element or the pyschic element that is. But I mean, your names Snowy, I bet you'll get the snow element." Candy hugged Snowy again.
