Chapter 1 - Into the light

It was a normal summer day. The birds where playing their little games in the sky, whilst the trees were dancing in the wind. A bright ray of sunlight shone upon a single girl, as she laid down in the grass with her eyes closed. She sighted. "Gosh, how i love summer... I could spend ages just listening to all the sounds around me." And as she was wondering if this infinite happiness would ever fade away, she moved her body in a more comfortable sleeping position and fell asleep.

She slowly opened her eyes as she woke up due to a bright light shining down on her. Her eyes got sharpened their view as she looked at the stars. " darn, I overslept! I hope they're not too worried about me." She stood up, and with a shock she realized what had awoken her; a massive sea of flames engulfed her house and their equestrian center right in front of her, showing no signs of getting weaker. As she trembled in fear and disbelieve, she saw her house slowly collapsing, leaving nothing more than bright red flames. She sinked through her feat, trying to realize what was happening and telling herself that it wasn't a dream. Suddenly a scream reached her, and she realized there must be a survivor left.

She ran down the hill as fast as she could, trying not to stumble. When she arrived at the scene, she saw a group of people standing in front of the burning horsestables. When she came closer, she noticed that all the horses were standing outside as well. Dispite the what she though was a succeeded evacuation of the horses, it was utter chaos at the scene. She heard people screaming things to eachother, and the words she could make up from it made her head spinning. She would've fallen onto the ground, if it wouldn't have been the worst possible time to do that. A men screamed "That girl, what is she thinking?! Is she trying to get herself killed?!" As a woman holding two tinkers said: " that poor little girl. She just lost her mother, father, and sister. And now she went back into the stables just to get her sisters horse out there, because she knows how much her sister loved him." She wanted to throw up, as she realized that the girl was no other than her sister. At this rate, she wouldn't have anyone left!

As impulsive as she is, she started walking towards the flames. The walking turned into running, and as she barged right through the people standing closest to the fire, an immense heat engulved her. "Flore! Flore where are you?" She ran towards her horses stable. " Flore please answer me!" And with a sight of relieve she heard a soft voice whispering;" I'm here.. Please help me... I don't wanna die" she stood in the entrance of the stable, and saw her little sister laying at the feet of her horse, who was breathing heavily. "You ain't gonna", she said. The little girl lifted her head up and gasped. "Isah, I thought you was-" she started crying. "You can't get rid of me that easily" isah grinned. "But stop crying now, I'm gonna get you outta here."

She lifted her sister onto her back, as she tied a rope around her horses neck and started pulling it. "Come on boy, it's me. Please come with us outside" and as the horse calmed down a little, the trio began walking towards the exit.

"Just a little more" isah sighted at the look of the door, only a few meters away from them.

Suddenly a loud torning-like noise sounded above them, and isah reacted in a flash. She took her sister in her arms and threw her to the exit with all her might. Just a split second after that, a heavy wooden pole came down, and engulfed the space between her and the door in flames. She could just see how people spurted towards her sister, and wrapped her in a blanket. She turned to her horse, and saw how hopeless their situation was right now. She turned eerie calm. " I'm sorry Costa. I'm so sorry that I didn't come sooner" and as her brain started getting hazy, a second wooden pole came falling from the ceiling, this time right above them. She wrapped her arms around costa's neck. And as she heard her sisters voice screaming her name one more time, she thought; " and I'm sorry I'm leaving you all by yourself, flore". Then, she didn't hear or feel anything anymore. The last thing she saw was a bright, golden light.
