Get to the woods, I
tell myself, get to the woods and it will
be alright.
I run, my feet pounding the cobblestone pathway I had
discovered a few months prior to that day. By the time I stop ten minutes
later, sweat is pouring down my face and I’m out of breath.

   Why
did you run?
The question pounds in my head. I don’t even know. I just know
that it isn’t normal. When the girl walked up to me, I just bolted. I didn’t
say goodbye to the cloud or the wind.

   And now I felt guilty.

   We were having a pleasant conversation about
what kind of waffles smell t best when a small girl holding a kite ran near us.
She looked at me, curious. I felt jumpy, but I stayed still.

   “What do you think?” I asked her softly. “Do
you think the cloud is right or the wind?” She gave me this curious look. Then
she opened her mouth.

   “Mommy! There’s a stranger girl and she’s
talking funny stuff.” That’s when I bolted. I couldn’t help myself.  

   And now here I was, shaking and out of
breath.

   A thought hit me. The wind had told me to
run, hadn’t it. I hadn’t realized that before, but I realized that now. And
another realization hit me then. She couldn’t hear the wind, or cloud. She
wasn’t like her.

   But am I the different one, or is she? I
asked myself, knowing deep down what the answer was. And that answer hurt.

   I started to walk home after that. My mum
was making pancakes with the recipe I had made up. Or, helped make up. The
wildflowers in the meadow by our house had recommended it.

   It had taken me almost 10 minutes to sprnt
out here, so it takes a good half hour to get back home.

   And when I did, Mum was angry.

   “Cassy, where were you?” Mum says, looking
down at me. “The food is cold now.”

   I don’t tell her.

   

 

Not my best writing.

MapleSyurp?

 

Mine :

Anja was walking home from school on the day her life would change. The ground was coated in a thick layer of leaves, a carpet of gold and scarlet and orange and brown. The leaves crackled and crunched as she trudged home. She was staring down at the ground, watching the leaves swish and swirl under the her feet. Suddenly, she spotted something that was not a leaf. It was a beautiful creamy color with tiny flecks of scarlet and gold. She reached over and picked it up. It was curved, like it was a shard of a large ball. One side was dry, but the other had a kind of sticky yellowish, almost clear, goo. It was part of an egg ! Anja realized. She looked around for the thing that had hatched from it. All she found at first were more egg-shards, which she quickly wiped off and tucked in her backpack, but then she heard a soft, pitiful mewling noise. She dug through the leaves and finally found it. It was a skinny little thing, with crusty light blue skin, short small legs with tiny feet, with just three toes, little claws, a short tail, two little stumps on it's back and a pair of light gray horns on it's head. Anja wasn't sure what it was, but it was mewling and making a noise like someone crying and looking around like it was lost, so Anja picked it up and, tucking it under her jacket and rubbing it briskly to keep it warm, fed it some of the leftovers from her lunch (she never had enough time to finish it). When she reached her house, she was glad to find her parents weren't home yet. She headed to her room, locking the door behind her. On second thoughts, she quickly dashed back out and pilfered the fridge, grabbing some beef jerky, milk and a small pan, and a small hunk of old, crusty bread. Up in her room, she snuggled the little thing up in a nest she made out of her blankets. The little thing was still mewling, so she carefully poured some of the milk into the small pan and put it near the newly hatched whatever-it-was. The little thing slurped and sucked, lapped and sipped. Some milk spilled, but most of it got inside the little thing. The little thing was still mewling, so she poured some more milk and soaked bread and jerky in it, then feed the softened food to the little thing. Anja sat back, watching it eat. "I can't call you little thing, but I don't know your gender . . . I'll call you Cosita, Costito if you're a boy, because it means little thing in Spanish. "

Ammunition        

 

Cicada shells are plentiful in our backyard,

 being used for bullets, shooting three at a time.

Cicada shedings are plentiful in our backyard,

we used to be amazed at how intact they were,

Today we use them for bullets;

shooting three at a time. 

 

Their crouched forms, so detailed, 

even if only a shadow shed from the

reality, so detailed, even including bulging

eyes glancing sideways like many other bugs

colored a shade of some rare brown

How could they even get out of there?

 

shot three at a time by young, 

five-year-olds fingers, aimed by a stick

gun and thrown off with little force to

hit hard wood without sound

I got you yer dead, Dad!

Shells so detailed, now to be crushed.

I run through the forest; if they found me I was dead. I heard the hooves  of their horses, and the roar of their dragons. The sound got louder, and they got closer. My my white furred ears are pressed against my head. I run faster.
I hear the call of the leader of the chase. " Halt you hybrid!!" he calls as he jumps over a log. I was in his sight.
I could feel the blue bow tied around my tail slipping off. I had to keep running. I jumped over a small creek. I felt safe so I let my ears up.
In front of me was a cliff. I gasped. They closed in on me.
"We have you now," the leader growled. The dragon hissed and smoke curled from its nostrils. The horses stomped their hooves. The riders grabbed their ebony bows. They notched arrows and pointed them at my heart. I looked around, my mouth open in disbelief. My ears are pressed on my head. 
"What do you want with me?" I asked, panting. My eyes water up, my auburn hair blowing grocery in the wind.
"To rid the world of you hybrids. You stole that key around your neck!" the leader hisses. "Fire!" he hisses and all the arrows fly. One his hit me in the leg and I fall to the ground. I raise my hands in a protective motion. From the key arcs a blue light. It goes to my hands. And it makes a blue force field around me. The arrows bounce off the field and I get onto my feet.
" You will never rid this world of hybrids," I hiss, letting my hands down. The force field fades away
"That's what you think!" the leader calls . The riders snicker and remark words like "monster," "theif," "enchantress". I hiss at him, showing my fangs. "See! You are a monster!" the leader yells
"Kill her," he hisses.

I touch my tears, watching them drip on my knee. One for Renika. One for Jeniay. One for... For Persino. 

This is what it feels like. To die. But be born again.

That one day. That one fall. I had lost my memories, and never knew what my past life was. But now I know. 

And now I wish I hadn't been so bad in my past life.

One for Renkia. One for Jeniay. One for Persino.

Zero for... Me.
