CHAPTER ONE Part One
"Nicolleta Rose?" Ms. Anne's husky voice called. I raised my hand. "You'll be working with this plot of soil. Partner up with someone." I hated school gardening, and I wish I hadn't volunteered. I mean, Ilike gardening, but not when I'm doing it in 30 degree heat at school. I chose my best friend Leah to work with, and we sat in the shade of a nearby tree. I started making holes for the seeds, and whle I was doing so Leah babbled on non-stop about her weekend. "...but i couldn't decide between the heels and the flats, so I didn't, and then- "
"Ouch, Huh?"
"What?" Leah asked, sounding annoyed that I had interrupted her. Well, something was tugging at my hair. "Ah! A spider!" I shreiked, rubbing my hair so the spider would get out. I looked up, and I was wrong. It wasn't a spider. I was mist. A spiral of lilac coloured mist, around the tree which Leah and I were under, and it was pulling my hair up. "That's strange..." I said to myself.
"Nicole, you're not paying attention!" I heard complain. "Oh, sorry. I was just just wondering where it had come from."
"Wondering where what came from?" Leah asked. "You didn't see it?" I questioned. "Nicole, I just see the usual." she said.
Ring!
I waited until (almost) everyone had gone hme so I could have another look at the tree which the mysterious mist was coming from. I walked over to the tree. The lilac mist was in sight again. "Which creature is coming in the way?" I heard a low icy voice hiss. The next thing I knew, two pale blue eyes were looking straight at me. A gorgous woman was sitting at the top of the tree. No, wait. She wasn't a woman becausec she was definety not human. Her hair colour was the same colour as the mist I had saw, she had pale skin and three azure rhinestones at the outer corner of both her eyes. She had perfectly shaped lips, which were an icy blue. What made her 'un-human' was that she had no legs. Instead, she had a ghost-like transparent tail. Sort of like a mermaid's tail, but there were not fins or scales. She continued to speak. "You. Come with me." She waved her hand at me and a gush of icy hair pulled me up to where she was. Stuff it. Now this supernatural woman was proably going to give a lengthy lecture about what I had just done. "You're name is Nicolleta Rose, am I correct? Now that you have seen me, I must explain." Okay, well that had just happened unbelievbly fast. What had I got caught up into now. Ugh.
