"Lyra! Lyra where are you!?"
"I'm right here!" I yell from the kitchen, grabbing the attention of my little sister. She runs to me with tears in her pretty green eyes. "Little chaton! What happened?" I ask as she squeezes my waist crying.
"The new boy s-said that I -I was u-ugly. Sing me our song?" I smile at my sister. She has a deformed lip and is very sensitive about it.
"Not yet, little one. Let's go see the boy about this, I'm sure when he knows how much it hurt your feelings, he'll apologize." I hold her hand and walk around the village, Ann (that's her name) still sniffling. We find the boy, he has blue eyes and back hair. "Excuse me, but I think you hurt my little sister's feelings." He looks at Ann and says "So?"
I pull him away from my sister's earshot and say "Look, I can tell that you are a good boy, when you want to be. Look at my sister. " he looks at her, tears still falling off her face. The boy's eyes are filled with guilt. "She is very shy and sensitive. What you said made her feel sad. Do you want to be the one responsible for that?" The boy lowers his head and shakes it. "Then say sorry and ask to be friends." I say with a smile. He nods and walks over to Ann "I'm sorry. I hope you can forgive me and we can be friends? " Ann smiles through her tears and they run off to play. But before they did, Ann runs to me and says. "Can I still hear the song?" I smile and nod.
" On the wind,
Cross the sea
hear this song and remember.
soon you'll be, home with me
Once upon a December. " I kiss her head and she runs off to play.
(At home)
I hear a loud knock on the door. I look out the window to see Derrick, the boy she befriended today. "What's wrong, Derrick?"
" The villagers! They're coming for Ann! "
"Come with me."
I run to Ann, asleep in her bed. I shake her awake. "Chaton, sweetheart I need you to wake up. Go with Derrick to the next village across the way."
"What's going on?" Asks the 12 year old, fear in her voice when she heard yelling.
"You need to run. It's the only way. People are coming to hurt you."
" What about you?! " she asks. I smile sadly and grab her hand, giving it to Derrick. "Derrick, I need you to take care of her. Keep her safe for me. I'll be right behind you once I take care of the others." I lie, and Derrick nods with understanding that I won't be right behind them.
" Ann, what say you one last song before you go? " she cries a little and nods a bit. I smile and hum an uplifting melody. I hug her and smile at Derrick, he nods and grabs Ann's hand. "I love you, Ann."
"I love you too. Be careful. "
I nod and they run to the back entrance. I walk to the front and open the door before they even knock. "Hello. How may I help you?" I smile innocently.
"Don't play coy with us! We know the monster's in there." Says the leader of the mob.
"I can assure you, sir, that there is no monster in these walls. Only me."
"If you won't tell us where it is, than we'll kill you!"
" I can only say this. " I grab my lute (basically an old-school guitar) that I keep near the door and hold it above my head in a defence stance. "I won't go down without a fight."
I hope you guys like my first chapter. Helpful criticism is appreciated. If I get five comments, I'll work on the next entry and publish it as fast as I can.
