we arent mad at you or anything . |
right seth ? |
she glared at him . |
he shrugged . |
i guess . |
emily perked up . |
you see , everyone makes mistakes . |
seth grunted to himself . |
emily rolled her eyes . |
hey seth , its not like you havent done something stupid . |
we all remember the swamp troll . |
seth frowned and jason snickered . |
seth punched his arm . |
hey dont make me nag you about the time you almost took off my head with your throwing knifes . |
jason stopped dead and narrowed his eyes . |
it was an accident . |
i didnt know youd run that way . |
alright , we understand that weve all done stupid , foolish things . |
so lets just add this accident to my list , okay ? |
i said quickly before the two started something . |
they nodded but shot each other smirks . |
i sighed , wondering why those two buffoons had been granted this power along , with emily and me . |
its not like they werent foolish enough already . |
the day when it all changed was still a mystery to us . |
a lot of things happened that didnt quite make sense . |
the four of us were already best friends . |
we were walking through the woods , rambling on about how halloween was almost here and that ms. stecher was still giving us too much homework . |
then all of a sudden an invisible object slammed into me . |
i shrieked and couldnt move . |
it had me pinned to the ground . |
seth ran forward and grabbed a branch to protect me . |
it should have gone right through the air but it collided into something and snapped in half . |
seth dropped it in amazement . |
emily ran over to me but was plowed to the ground . |
she screamed , spitting out dirt , twigs and leaves . |
seth stood watching , terrified . |
he didnt have a clue as what to do to fight these invisible creatures . |
none of us did , at that time , because we didnt know what was going on . |
the world was still a normal place to us at the time . |
something grabbed seths legs and pulled him against a tree . |
he kicked and punched but couldnt find the right place to hit his attacker . |
hold on ! |
jason yelled . |
i opened my mouth to say that we already were when he vanished . |
dragged away was my guess . |
my legs shot with pain . |
i heard emily yell the first curse words ive heard her say in a while . |
i spotted her red arm just before my body felt like fire . |
i closed my eyes and blacked out . |
i didnt really black out but thats what i thought at the time . |
i opened my eyes to find i was sitting on the ground next to my sleeping body . |
i saw emily sitting there , saying nothing for once . |
something fell off my back and i picked it up . |
it was a wooden bow , and when i reached behind my back i felt a quiver full of feathered arrows strapped there . |
i ran a finger over the smooth , dark wood and turned to see seth crashing out of the woods . |
i smirked at him and pointed at his head . |
you have dark blue hair . |
i giggled , not knowing why i was giggling after what had just happened to us a few minutes ago . |
he frowned and pulled a piece or two out of his head . |
his eyes widened , and i laughed at the shock on his face . |
if we were dead , which was my best guess , why not poke fun at him ? |
seth smiled at me . |
well , yes but you have green hair . |
its bright green , like neon green . |
i shoved my hair in front of my face . |
it was bright green all right . |
i stood up and examined myself . |
i was wearing light brown hunting boots and tight black pants made out of some sort of light cloth . |
a thick woven jacket was shielding me from the october cold . |
when i looked back at seth , i realized he had also made an outfit change . |
he was wearing black leather boots and dark blue pants . |
his top was a short , brown cloak with a hood and leather belt . |
a beautiful steel sword with an ornamental hilt was swinging at his side from a woven sheath . |
oh well , i guess i have green hair . |
its not that bad . |
i like green . |
i rambled as i examined the short hunting knife that was resting in a small sheath on my hip . |
i ran a finger over the blade before putting it back . |
how seth and i had acquired such dangerous weapons was anyones guess . |
i certainly had no clue . |
i heard footsteps and turned to see emily running over . |
she was wearing a close fitting , long robe . |
it was a stunning deep blue with a trim of gold embroidery . |
she had no weapons dangling from her body were visible from where i was standing . |
i have pink hair ! |
isnt it cool ? |
she spun around so we could take in all of its bubblegum pink color . |
she looked at the bow slung over my shoulder and seths gleaming sword . |
hey , i dont have anything cool and deadly . |
why do you both get something like that and i didnt ? |
its not like you can trust jazell with something sharp or dangerous . |
hey ! |
we cant trust you either . |
i pointed out , crossing my arms . |
arming you is as scary as giving a kindergartener a knife . |
she gasped . |
yeah , well , im ignoring you now . |
she huffed and turned around . |
there you are ! |
jason exclaimed as he crashed out of the trees , panting . |
