Day: 4. July 2010

I pushed my way through the mass of warm, moist bodies, I could feel the burn in my throat, pitched dangerously high by the mouth watering smell.I shook my head trying to ignore the burn.I immediately though of the Twilight series, it always puzzled me how close to the truth those books got, thank goodness there was no such thing as the Volturi.I froze, narrowing my eyes.Here came the most annoying human alive, Keira. Whith her pink jacket overdone makeup and puckered lips, she probably though herself good looking, I shuddered.Then I noticed the way she was walking was, more, well clumsy, then usual, then my eyes darted to her shoes and I almost burst out laughing.She was wearing hot pink high heels and as she walked she placed one foot in front of the other, moving her hips from side to side. I raised an eyebrow at her,” Ummm whats up with the-?” I began to ask but she raised her hand silencing me,”please don’t een talk to me weirdo, i know your jealous.” she said gesturing to her shoes with her identically ridiculous handbag.This time I couldn’t stop myself from laughing, and felt several heads tur toward me, and my laugh was  echoed by several others. Keira huffed angrily ” Nerds!”she mumbled turning away and stomping away, her heels clicking on the tile.Suddenly one of the heels snapped of and she fell, with a shrill scream.I broke into a new fit of laughter…. right when Deilian dashed out of his classroom, signing when he saw me.He helped Keira up, who was currently sobbing about her poor shoes,and looked at me,, his eyes furious and his jaw clenched tightly ” i didnt do it.” i whispered only loud enough for him to hear. ” i don’t care.” he whispered back, before leading  Keira to the nurse. as soon as he turned the corner the hall way erupted into cheering and I was surrounded by people clapping me on the back and congratulating me, apparently Deilian wasn’t the only one who though it was me, and even worse it was certain he heard all the cheering and patting on the back.I pushed my way through the mob for the second time, and dashed into the classroom, sitting down at my desk, i set my elbows on the desk, there was a crack ad it split in two, apparently I had put my elbows onto it with more force then I thought, I sighed, this wasnt going to end well.

Chapter 7

Oh no!This can’t be good I thought to myself. “I promised I would heart you and my promise will be failed in 3 minutes.”And she left. “Fathom time now!” “Ok in 3 min. it’ll be midnight.” MIDNIGHT….that echoedthrough my brian all the way to the back of my head over and over and over again and the ehco go louder as they started to scream my ears ringing and I panicked! “10 seconds!” fathom yelled.I looked around everywhere not knowing what to do,everything was in slow motion and I heard a scream  and and the bus driver yell “MY PROMISE IF FAILED!I WON’T HEART YOU!I WILL-” and then she was gone…Madiwas gone…dead….and so was Lauren….the bus driver was dead because of me……”I killed someone!A LIFE!A cherished life!” I screamed at the top of my lungs hoping someone will here me and take me away in a box.

THE BUS DRIVER……………….

Chapter One: The Candles on my Birthday Cake have Frozen Flames

Waves crashed against the sandy shore of the beach. The sea foamy seem angry and the gray cloud-filled sky seemed to be crying with rage. Two creatures were fighting not far from where my dream -self stood. One was a bird that seemed to be on fire; a Phoenix. The other being was a blue-green serpent. I knew I had to keep them from killing each other. I tried to run towards them, but I was not as fast in Dream World as I was on Earth. Every time I tried to run faster the wind blew harder. What was mo; the wind blew salt water into my face and rain drentched my clothes. Then….

I woke up. I was in my bed at home. The sheets had made their way to the floor as the did every time I had that dream. It was always the same. I always woke before I could help the bird and the serpent.

I glanced at the clock on my dresser. 8:23 the large red numbers said. I sat up and listened to the sound of bickering that came from outside my bedroom door.

“You ruined the cake!” the voice of my mother shouted.

“And you didn’t “accidentally” buy her a baton instead of a sea staff?” came the sarcastic voice of my older sister, Aphrodite.

***************************** Pause ******************************

Before I tell you anything else, I should tell you why my sister and I (my name is Athena by the way) were named after Greek Goddesses. Our mother, Hestia, said that there was a tradition in our family to name all female children after Greek of any other Goddess.

**************************** Continue ****************************

I hated it when they fought. They could not agree on anything.

-Which movie to watch on family night

-What kind of frozen ice-cream to get

-Not even on my Birthday

I could go on and on, but you get my drift.

Anyway I got up and got out of my room and made noises with my feet so they would know I was awake and coming to the kitchen.

There was some scuffling and muttering an then, quiet. I got to the kitchen door and saw my mom and sister sitting at the kitchen table, a large cake was on the table. One half of the cake was Oreo cookies flavor and the other half, whipped cream with cherries and strawberries on top. 13 candles with bright flames were on the that pretty cake. I smiled. Even if they couldn’t agree, my mom and sister made sure that their arguments never got in the way with my events.

“HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!” they screamed.

“Blow the candles!” mom suggested.

“No open your present!” retorted Aphrodite.

*See what I mean?*

“I think I’ll blow the candles first,” I told them after that I wish I had chosen the present.

My mom, looking smugly at Aphrodite, pulled a chair over to the cake and patted it. I slid into it and leaned over and blew.

Ice. Or rather frozen fire. I stared. Behind me I heard my mother’s gasp and my sister’s sharp intake of breath.

I turned and looked at them. “What – happened?”

Mom or Hestia as I would soon be forced to call her said simply,” Come with me.”

To be Continued….

I opened my eyes taking an unnecessary breath. I tasted and smelled bacon in the air, and automatically turned my head away from the smell in disgust. I could hear the sizzling of the oil on the other side of the house.I got up and was by Deilian’s side in he fraction of a second ” why are you cooking bacon? were all alone, we don’t need to keep up this jig.” I said signing. He turned around to face me, his movements dull and sluggish, the way he acted when around humans.His currently crimson eyes danced playfully, he looked like a man in his late thirties with gray hair tied back in a pony tail and a pair of unnecessary spectacles rested on his nose. ” My dear, you must learn habits so that you can do them without thinking, especially ones of such importance as ours.” he said a smile dancing across his lips and turned back to the sizzling bacon. I sighed annoyed ” Ugh, your gonna drive me crazy if you keep acting so human!” I said angrily.As I began to turn around his hand shot out, with his usual flowing movements,so quick that they would be unregistered by human eyes.With one flick of his wrist he spun me around and gently lay his other hand on my other shoulder.” Azia,control yourself, remember your restless behavior had almost gotten you killed several times.” He said, his hands slid of my shoulders and with one more quick movement he tossed the bacon out of the window. I sighed, I knew he was right, I had many times unknowingly almost got myself killed and he saved me every time. “come on get ready it’s time for school.” I heard his voice say from upstairs, accompanied by the rustling of paper as he gathered his teaching materials.I darted to my room grabbed my back pack slinging it over my shoulder and darted out of the door. A split second later I heard the whisper of wind as Deilian dashed out of the house, locking the door without ever stopping. Then he was beside me, his movement once again slowed to a sluggish human pace. I growled quietly under my breath as I imagined that my limbs felt heavier, and forced myself to move at an irritatingly slow pace. He smiled at me, then closed his eyes, sitting down on the floor.My accurate  eyes noticed the slight change in his posture as he became unconscious then almost immediately regained consciousness. When he opened his eyes they were a rich jade.I sighed again repeating his gesture, feeling the slight burn as I willed my eyes to alter color. I stood up and look into the mirror satisfied with my light blue eyes. I nodded to him “Okay, lets go” . He nodded back and we walked to his black Volvo. After a ‘short’ drive we arrived at the high school. We got out and walked to the front doors.” remember don’t do anything suggesting your not human no matter what happens.” he whispered as a reminder then kissed me on the forehead before walking away to the teachers lounge. I was left standing alone staring at the front doors. “joy oh joy another day at my wonderfull human highschool!” I said sarcastically scowling at the doors, then shrugged my shoulder, making the strap of my backpack slide up my shoulder and walked in.
