Jaccara's Forest
Beginning?
Am I allowed to do it only one person? As in, me writing the story?
I will assume for now that I am.
Here are my character ID pages: There are one main character and four other sub-mains.

Personality: Likes to be alone, but can't live without her friends. Taking the lead is rather difficult for her because decisions don't come easily.

Starving and very weak she unknowningly entered the Great Forest. Rose was just six when she found Jackie sleeping under the Great Tree in the heart of the Forest. Rose took in little Jackie and raised her in the ways of the Forest along with her brother David.
At 8 she was officially inducted into the Cheshire Tribe. Accomplishing and shattering the climbing record for the Cheshire Tribe when she was 9, she became the most skilled climber in the whole Forest. And at 12 finished reading all the books in the Starlight Library (there are 5000 books in the Starlight Library).

*All names are spontaneously thought of, I am sorry if i accidentally used your actual name.
**A Slipgizzle is a spy. It is a word from a series called Owls of Ga'hoole by Kathryn Lasky. I recomend this book to anyone who loves adventure, animals, and Wolves of the Beyond or Horses of the Dawn. If you don't like these things, I recomend trying it anway.
***Marine Corps motto, or at least that's what my Latin book says.
btw, it took me two hours to write this. lol.
Hope you all liked it. I don't have time to write anymore tonight, or tomorrow(gone all day). But i will probably write on Thursday. M

Hey Jaccara this is Hazel. I just made a new charrie. I'm a dracoshift. I made it up. I am a girl but can shift in to a dragon. I am a pyroshift; that means that I am a fire dragon where born in dragon form by dragons which means when in human form we are orphans. It is very common in the pyroshifts. Well what you were clueless with was that they were arguing if Sailhaven would win but Sailhaven won (sigh). Jaccara, I was thinking maybe we could get a story going on this thread. Would I be able to start the story or would you like to?

Hey guys, sorry about the delay. But I'm back now!
~Nysta
"Should we just leave her here?" I hear subconsciously. "Shh, she's moving." Another voice says. "What do we do then?" A third voice says nervously. "Cassandra?" I say weakly. There's silence. "Don't let them hurt my tree, it's dying, my tree, it's dying." More silence. "Please Cassandra..." I fall into unconsciousness again.
I'm running through the woods, my tree it's dying. My home, my refuge, my friend. The humans are hacking at it. TWWWEEEE!!! I whistle sharply for my friends and pull back the string on my bow. They never come, I let the arrow fly. It's useless, I'm spotted, and the humans start toward me. I run to my tree, blending in with it's branches. They yell something. And then I feel a sharp pain. It's done. The B.I.G. has cut down my tree. A force pulls me back and I fall to the ground. I swirl into a vortex of blackness.

I sighed.I had to go to the marketplace in the forest.It wasn't fun having to walk along the old worn out path to the marketplace.But nevertheless I had to go there.So I grabbed a piece of parchment and a qill and wrote down my list of things I needed.Then I packed food and water for the trip and walked out the door of my bamboo hut.The path was old and had occasional pinecones on it.I decide to use the short cut.As I walk along the short cut I see some thing ahead it looks like chaos andB.I.G.As I come closers I see B.I.G. more clearly they where cutting down a tree I hear a piercing scream a nymph scream.They just cut down it's tree.

~Jaccara
What the? I look to the sky and think Am I ever going to understand this world? "We just saw someone.. morph into an owl," said Marcus, still staring out the window. I snap back to reality. And then snap him back by punching him in the arm. " Ow!" one of the librarians turned toward us and scowled at us. I smothered my giggle. Then I looked back at Marcus. He was scowling at me too. "Oh, lighten up!" I scolded. "What we need to do is follow that girl-er- owl." "Ok, we can do that, but first, we need to stop at the café. Do you ever take a break?". I rolled my eyes, my hands on my hips. "From the job called life, no." I walked out the door, leaving him in my path, in the direction of the café. I have to admit, I was hungry. Books always make me hungry.
(August 17, 2016 - 8:00 pm)
Hey Jaccara, hope you don't mind me rping as Marcus! It's just a way for me to continue the story without overusing Wiseowl. We story tellers do have to make sure of it. I also hope you get to know Nysta the ginko tree nymph. Possibly help her find a new tree?
~Marcus
Yeah, that's life. Jaccara, friends, library and all. And I guess I am pretty hungry. I must have eaten a small breakfast. And-oh wait! I didn't eat breakfast! With a sigh, I follow Jaccara to the cafe. I finger the neckless the girl dropped. A single music note pendent. What could it mean? The world is a strange place. I think I'd better start looking for some answers.
~Wiseowl
Tired and exhausted, I come back to Reader's Barn. Then, feeling that something is off, I look in the mirror. Wait a- What did- I just- No way- Could I... Did I just forget my neckless?!?!?!
~Nysta
I blink awake to find myself on a mat of cotton, tubes attached to my arm and a repetitive noise in the white clear silence. Screens surround me, and I hear undistinct voices in another room. Where is my bow? And quiver of arrows? They can't be gone can they? Then I half remember what happened, and the pain of the memories drives me to darkness....
"Nysta," a voice calls, laughing. "Come on Nysta, you're not in your tree, nor by the creek willows. Where are you?" I stifle a giggle. "I'll find you yet!," the voice calls. Suddenly, the bushes part, and Cassandra, the owner of the voice, hanging upside down, peers at me. "Cherries!" She shouts, signaling that she's found everyone. I burst into laughter, and Cassandra and the other nymphs join in. "What took you so long?" I ask playfully. "Am I really that good of a Cherry?" Cassandra looks me in the eye with a daring twinkle my thousand year old friend has always had. "You may be a good Cherry Nysta, but as a black bird, good luck finding something to eat!" We all laugh harder. "Come'n, let's go to the creek!" Aster, tall maple nymph says. "Race you!" He says, and starts off. We shout and follow him along with the other 15 of us. Terris the sycamore nymph gets there first and he and Aster woop and hand slap. Plita and Geni, the twin olive nymphs, look at each other and sigh, "Boys," the identical pair say, rolling their eyes. I nudge Cassandra, "Wanna treasure hunt?" I ask. She nods and we start looking for shiny objects and pretty stones along the bank. A few nymphs join us. Suddenly I spot something surface and run over to see what is is. I freeze. A water nymph stares at me. "Nysta," Cassandra calls, and when I don't answer she sprints over along with Sario (willow) and Danzy (crab apple). "What are you-oh!" The other three freeze as I have. Water nymphs are paler and bluer than we are. Though the same pointy ears and beautiful attire, the always look mornful with their cold, empty eyes. It kept staring at me and reaches a long, thin arm out towards me. "Don't!" Cassandra says suddenly. The pale creature lowered her arm and almost angrily looked at her. But she again fixed her gaze on me. "Young and inexperienced tree nymph," she said in a stern, soft, and rythemic voice."trouble is to come upon you child, you must avoid it. Hurry back to you refuge before it's to late, do not dare to go alone." Sario breaks the dead silence. "Do not listen to that water nymph Nysta," he says almost threateningly. "Yes," says Danzy in the same manner. "You know of the conflict, it's probably a trick!" Cassandra remains silent. The water nymph looks at me and shakes her finger. "Oh ignorent tree nymphs, you do not know what is to come. Young sapling, I advise you to listen!" With a flourish, she dissolves back into the water. I stare at the spot where th water nymph was. My mouth is dry. "What are you going to do?" Ask my friends. I shake my head slowly, "I don't know."

I fly high over the pine trees. The glare hinders me, but I manage. Although my eyes are sore from the daylight,I enjoy the cool air rushing through my feathers. I look down and quickly look forward again. The lake below me nearly blinded me. Gotta land somewhere and rest.
I look down again. My eyes catch on a familiar silver pine. I emediatly swoop down and alight gently on one of the top branches. I sort of hop and glide down to the lower branches . Soon I am at the entrance to my friend's home. That's strange, she left her door open. I poked my beak inside. Just enough to see inside. Noah's far as he could see, no onewas home. "Hm, odd." he said to himself She's usually home on all day on Wednesdays, "She's probably out at Starlight." I settled myself down in a cozy corner and tried to doze off. But the memories of the past few days kept me awake. Or so I thought.
(August 20, 2016 - 11:39 am)
I need to get to the market now I think to myself.I walk over to the shadowy part of the trees I can't get caught by B.I.G. as I sneak though the shadowy part of the trees when I step on a stick all the B.I.G. is starring at me and they attack....
