Chapter One of a story I started. I'm only posting chapter one to get some feedback so I can see what works and what doesn't. It was a normal assignment: "parent" an egg for two weeks to learn about responsibility. For Kyle, however, the end of the assignment brings about a whole new beginning.

A bunch of different stories I've written over time. Enjoy. © Emily Jonatan All Rights Reserved

Evil things lurk within Scarfold Forest... In a city where people are constantly in fear of the dreaded forest that surrounds its borders, nothing is what it seems. Mailandria, a girl with the potential to use magic, begins to suspect the king's rule. She is caught in a web of lies and dishonesty, and finds herself facing her own execution. After an unlikely turn of fate, she escapes her executioners... and finds herself trapped within the dark forest's grasp. ~~~ Copyright © 2012 Emily Jonatan All Rights Reserved
