Unlikely Friends

Tigerlily

After meeting Lili, Fawn, and Bella, Tigerlily thought everybody was there, so she took out a book from her duffel bag. She didn't notice a boy and a girl come through the doors.

In the middle of the page, someone's voice boomed into her ear, making her jump. But that jump also triggered her power, and she was transported back into her book. Unfortunately the book was based on the Nazis.

Everyone was left dumbfounded, not sure what happened.

Tigerlily opened her eyes and saw she was in the middle of a street. Jews were walking forward, all with a star sewn onto their chests.

Tigerlily watched in horror. How could anyone do this? Why? These were the questions that always ran through her mind whenever she saw this pictured in history books.

"Do you know Max?!" A blond haired girl asked, her eyes full of worry. Tigerlily looked down, seeing her worry.

"I'm sorry, I don't," she whispered.

"Max!" The girl yelled, running past Tigerlily. Suddenly a guard from the parade ran over and knocked the girl to the sidewalk, sending blood to her hands. But the girl stood up again, looking for her friend, Max.

The guard saw Tigerlily standing in the middle of the street, and he marched over and pushed her forward.

"Hey!" Tigerlily yelped, falling to the ground. That was when she took a look at her clothes. She was wearing baggy pants with an oversized grey shirt. But on her shirt there was a star embroided. Tigerlily's eyes widened. She was a Jew.

"I have to get out," Tigerlily muttered to herself. But before she could close her eyes again, the guard pushed her to the ground. The color red came to Tigerlily's hands.

Tigerlily took another look at the once beautiful Himmel Street, and then closed her eyes. When she opened them, she was sitting back down on the bench. Lili sitting across from her. Everyone else were yelling at a white haired boy.

"Guys," Fawn said, noticing Tigerlily came back.

Everyone kept shouting, not paying attention to Fawn.

"Guys!" Fawn shouted a little louder.

More argueing.

"GUYS!!!!!" Fawn shouted at the top of her lungs.

"WHAT!!!! " Everyone yelled back, staring at Fawn. Fawn pointed to Tigerlily, who was looking at her book, horrified.

"I'm sorry about that. It was an accident. Honest," The white haired boy said, walking toward the two.

"It- It's alright..... I saw some things I needed to see," Tigerlily muttered, her eyes glued to the book.

"Well then, now that's settled," the white haired boy said, clasping his hands together. "I'm Jack. Jack Frost."

The girl that was with him stepped in. "I'm Ember. Nice to meet you."

Tigerlily stuck out her hand, shaking the two's. "My name's Bella," Bella introduced, following Tigerlily's example and shaking their hands.

"Fawn."

Lili was staring at the book in Tigerlily's hands. "Psst, your turn." Tigerlily whispered, nudging her new friend's shoulder.

"Lili." She whispered, saying nothing else.

Before Tigerlily could say another word a high pitched scream came from the end of the hallway, sending Tigerlily falling to the floor. Lili covered her ears with an expression of pain.

"WHAT. WAS. THAT!!!!" Tigerlily shouted, standing up.

"Lets check it out," Jack suggested, grabbing hold of a staff Tigerlily had just noticed.

They all ran through the maze like passages until they saw Mother Goose in the library. A girl came out of a sack next to her, a knife in hand.

"Oh no," Tigerlily muttered.
