Caddo Stories

Sometimes running from the past is the only way to stay alive... Maya Caddo had a history of running. When the going got tough, she ran like the wind. A life of loss had ingrained that lesson into her. Yet when the deaths of her Uncle and Aunt in her old hometown causes her cousin to beg her to come home and help settle old familiar disputes, will she be able to refind her roots and stop running? Maya knows she is the only member of her family who is potentially strong enough to withstand the storm that is coming. Coming face to face with her past could break her or kill her. Would she be able to stand firm for those she loved? Or would she kick tail and run as she always had in the past? Sometimes you have to run toward the past to change the future.

The Caddo tribe is a brutal one. Boy's like him barely get by, but they sure do try. But sometimes to try isn't enough. Sometimes it takes more out of you than you could ever give. His world is a cruel, cruel place; but in the end, the only motive is survival. This is one of the stories I wrote for a school project. I will be posting stories that I think are worth sharing from school on Wattpad as 'School Works'. I am aware that this is in need of editing, and that it could slightly be historically inaccurate. This is not meant to offend anyone, this is simply what I learned in my school.
