Mysterious Adventure Part 1

Chapter 52: Black feathers in the woods

I've started to notice that my wings are shedding some of the old feathers off again so that the new feathers can come in, I go to head outside to get some fresh air and I open up my wings then I fly up into the sky as some of the old feathers come off. I looked down at the ground and I see three people walking in the woods, I go flying down to a tree branch so that I could get a better look at them and I see that it's my friends. Jessica, Jessie, and Layla were collecting something in their hands and putting it into a basket I jump down out of the tree as my wings fold back and I walk over to my friends to see what they are up to. Jessica said, "Hey it's good to see you again what have you been up to?" I said "I've been going okay, trying to keep some people out of the woods," Jessie said, "they are still after you?" I looked at Jessie with a look of 'ya think'. I looked in the basket that Layla was carrying and saw that they were feathers Layla said "you noticed the feathers that we are collecting". Jessie said "we keep seeing these feathers everywhere so we thought we could collect some" I looked over them and I saw something in the distance I said "get down," Jessie said, "what why?". I said "get down now" they got down as soon as they heard something go off and I threw one of my knives at them and hits them in the shoulder I walked over to the person and pulled out my knife from their shoulder as they screamed in pain. The man ran off holding onto his shoulder I said "the feathers that you have been collecting are mine" Jessie said "that's impossible you don't have-" I opened up my wings right as soon as Jessie talked. Layla said "that is so amazing what is it like to be in the sky?" I said "well I have my advantages and disadvantages when I am in the sky" I let Layla touch my wings since she has never seen them on a human. Jessica said "it's good that you are keeping an eye out for everything," I said "yeah I've been trying" I didn't want them to know that the day with Nick is almost around the corner so I kept that to myself since I know they would try to help. I walked them back home so that they made it home safe and once they were home I flew back up into the sky and arrived back at the mansion, as I walked in I plopped on the couch to take a long nap. I woke up to a tap on my shoulder and I looked to see who it was before I pulled out my knife and I saw that it was Slender I said "oh hey Slender if you want I can go sleep up in my room" I was about to walk away when he stopped me. Slender said "no that is not necessary I wanted to thank you for the help that you have been doing for us," I said, "it's nothing really I mean I'm one of you guys now so it's only natural that I help protect the mansion". I didn't notice it at the time but my marks were glowing slightly and I walked up to my room to go get more sleep for the rest of the night since I know that I am going to be doing a lot tomorrow. I walked into my room got undressed and put on my pajamas and plopped into the bed and covered up since it was a little cold in my room and I fell asleep for the rest of the night.
