Note: This is my first story, so please forgive me for any mistakes! I will be gradually adding characters on that people submitted on my "I'm New Here" post

 

CHAPTER 1                                                                                                                              ''''''''''''''''''''''

Seriann's eyes slowly cracked open. The light streaming through her window nearly blinded her, causing her blanket-wrapped body to flip away from the light. 

"Serian!" she heard her older sister yell from downstairs. "Time to get up! It's the first day of school and Mom will take away flying privlages if you're late."

Her sister, Elene, had now reached her door and stopped yelling. Elene had been going to The School For Gifted (or TSFG) for 5 years now. Sometimes she did not act her age, which was 15. Now was one of those times.

Using her invisibility powers she had manifsted with at age 9, she creeped up on Seriann. Seriann felt a pressure near her legs as Elene leaned over.

Smack.

"Ow! How did you know I was there!?" exclaimed Elene, rubbing her face where her sister had smacked her. 

"8 years of practice." Seriann flipped the blanket off of her sleep deprived self, wacking her sister in the head again.

**Time Skip (Note: Time Skips will be in asteriks, bold, and italics)**

After stretching her wings and other limbs for 10 minutes (just to annoy Elene), Seriann got up, pulled her favorite clothes on, and headed downstairs, her childish 15 year old sister trailing after her.

Seriann and Elene's mom was cooking breakfast when her enhanced senses picked up her two daughters coming downstairs.

"Seriann! I made your favorite!" she called. "Avacoado toast!"

"Thanks *yawn* mom." Seriann grinned as she saw her older brother. "Heyyyyyy Alex."

"Hey Seriann. By the way, it's he/him today." Alex smirked. "And no, I don't think the Gifted School or whatever it's name is will care that you haven't manifested yet."

"Ugh, stop reading my thoughts." The youngest child messed up Alex's blonde hair, sitting down next him as she reached for her toast.

"Surface thoughts, Seriann, surface thoughts. Clearly seemed on the top of your mind." The 14 year old reached over and grabbed the plate from out under her hands.

**Time Skip**

Seriann felt her anxiousness grow as they took off, Elene's golden wings expanding and nearly knocking her off balence. Alex went past and cuffed her head with his beautiful cream colored and brown tipped wings.

Seriann spread her magnificent snow-colored wings and took off, trailing behind her siblings, awaiting her destiny. 

 

Note: Kinda a short first chapter. Not exactly action packed, but there is more to come! By the way, this is a solo write. You can put suggestions for characters on my "I'm New Here" post.

Ooooh I love this! You don't mind a little criticism, do you? Because I think Elene is just a little bit too childish to be normal. Again, though, the rest is awesome; keep at it.

Thanks, Jithkeeper! I don't mind the criticism. Although, note that they have bird DNA, and in my story their metal age is usually young; for exmaple, Elene is 15, but her mental age is quite young, about 9 (that's when she manifested). She's just an outgoing charecter anyways, and her mood matches the story's mood. It's serious, she's serious, it's humourous, she's humourous.

Another little tip, you usually don't need to put in the actual words "time skip", as it tends to be a little bit jarring to the flow of everything. A new paragraph and a phrase like "after a few hours" or "the next morning" usually works fine, and if you have a place skip along with a time skip you can put in some dots or something between paragraphs-

Blah blah blah, at the place!

~O~

Blah blah blah, a different place! 

 

This is a pretty cool idea; I'm excited to see where the story goes! :D

Thanks for the tip. I wasn't sure about doing the 'time skip' anyways... I'm glad you think it's cool!
