Burning Sea of Heroes

The next morning I woke up at 5:00am like normal and got changed into a pair of black ripped skinny jeans, flowy gray t-shirt, long sleave hooded demin vest, brocken in classic brown combate boots and tied a flannel shirt around my waist. I did my hair in a side plate then put on dad's and bucky's dog tags.

I then walked out to the shed and got on my bike and rode to my cubby house at the edge of the bush in the corner of fisher's paddock. The cubby house was small and shaped like a dome with ivy vines growing over the top and sides forming walls and a roof. The cubby was big another that I could fully stand in and not hit my head on the fairy lights that hung down it also had a make shift door. In the inside on the ground was a wooden floor covered in blankets and pillows as well as books, drawing books, pencils, pens, rubbers and other nicks and bobs.

I went in and turned on the fairy lights then grabbed a drawing book and a pencil then moved to my door and sat in the door frame sketching the mob of kangaroos eating the long brown grass with the foggy morning background. After I finished sketching I grabbed my old camera that I left at the cubby and took the photo of the kangaroos as it spat out the photo at the bottom. It was calming to do this or go to the roof.

I then went over to my dirt bike and rode back to the house. When I got there both dad and bucky were awake and drinking coffee honestly who else drinks coffe at this ungodly hour of the morning. "Morning angel" dad greeted "morning dad, morning bucky" I greeted "so what do you have planned for today" I asked "well I'm gonna go and fix the fence on cooper's paddock then maybe head out to the shed and fix the ute" dad answered. "I'll be helping fix the fence too then maby go train" bucky finished as I shrugged then went upstairs to my room.

My room was at the end of the hall next to the spare room. My room was large and had purple and black smokey ombre walls and had a wooden floor draped with a wolf skin rug. On the roof I hade fairy lights strung up that covered the ceiling and my window along one wall. My double bed was in the corner of the room and a bay seat sat under the window. Along one wall was a string of endless memories represented in photos and a simple desk and bookshelves littered with books as well as a large cubide that held all my clothes.

After an hour of reading I got really bored which happens when you have ADHD like me so I went to go find dad and bucky. Which was where I located them at the fence when I got the sensation of being watched but me being the idiot I am ignored it. "G'day boys need help" I asked as they turned around and smiled at me "yeah we need you to melt the wire to the post" bucky instructed which I did without complaint.

The feeling of being watched grew stronger and I swear I saw something move. "Hey dad I think we're being watched" I admitted as dad's face went as pale as cow's milk "asha you need to run now back to the house and pack only what you need go" dad instructed. I quickly jumped on my dirt bike and rode as fast as I could to the house.

I jumped off the bike sprinting to my room and grabbed a bag and shoved my clothes in it as well as all of my memories, sleeping bag, toiletries,  blanket, pillow, torch, food, water and my stuffed kelpy that I've had since a baby. I grabbed my bow, knives, sword and guns I then ran to my dirt bike where dad and bucky was waiting "goodbye angel please be safe and I'm sorry I didn't tell you sooner " dad sobbed. "Goodbye sis and please contact me as soon as you can ok" bucky said hugging me then kissed my forehead I then hopped on my dirt bike when dad yelled over the motor "go to long Island new York" and I nodded before getting out of there heading to brisbane airport.
