Layla's Letter of Fate
Chapter 1
"Wake up! Wake up! Wake up!" Screeched my noisy alarm clock, right before I turned it off and rolled over to get to sleep again.
"Honey! Time for breakfast!" My so called mother yelled up to me. After I was born, my mother died. I guess giving birth to me was too much for her. To make it worse, ever since her tragic death, no one has seen my father. Some people say he commites suicide, but I have a feeling he's still out waiting for me to find him. Well, never mind that now, lets get back to the story.
"Coming!" I hollered back while I quickly threw on my clothes and made my bed.
"Ahh...nice outfit." My mom said looking me up and down. I guess I hadn't put on the right clothes when I put them on. I had set out a really cute outfit that everyone would totally be jealous of, but oh well.
Instead of telling my mother that, I just said, "thanks", and quickly took a granola bar before I grabbed my backpack and ran out the front door. "Love ya. Bye!"
"Layla!" My mother urgently called back as I slammed the door in her face.
"Sorry mom, don't have time, I'm late, bye."I hurriedly exclaimed as I opened and closed the door again.
"But-" Mom said to the closed door. In her right hand was a letter that she had just seen in the pile of mail.It was a rather weird envelope. It was about 5 1/2 inches by 5 1/2 inches, and had a yellow-white kind of color to it. It was adressed to 'Ms. Witch Layla Cuvely of Advanced Magic.' In the top left hand corner, it said that it was from Ms. Pitricia Loveng, head of Mountios School of Advanced Witchcraft and Wizardry. Concerned about what the letter was about, Layla's mother opened the envelope slowly, careful not to ruin the beautiful envelope, and was astonished at what she saw.
Meanwhile, Layla was talking with al of her friends. I say 'all' because Layla was one of the most popular people in her grade. Everyone wanted to be her friend. Even the other cool people became desperate if the didn't like her.
Out of all of her friends, she still did have one best friend and one boyfriend (yes, 13 year old Layla has a boyfriend).Her best friend was Cece, and her boyfriend was Aaron. She didn't really like Aaron, but Cece told her she eventually would, because he gives you expsensive presents, money, and brings you to a lot of awesome places (she went out with him for 3 months before he dumped her).
"Hey," Cece began. "Want to hang out tonight? You know, go to the bowling alley or something."
"Why not? I have nothing better to do. Maybe we could go to my house and finish out homework or something."Layla added.
"O.K.! Great!" Cece replied.
"See ya!"Said Layla.
When Layla got home, concern was floating around. When she got home, she was laughing her head off, and had just shouted, "See ya later!" when she sensed the seriousness in the room.
"What's going on?" She asked. "Are we moving again or something? I can't believe you! Just when I make good friends, you -"
"Layla!" Her father cut her off. "Quit it with your nonsense! We have something to tell you."
"I tried telling you earlier." Her mother informed her, and held up her hand when Layla opened her mouth to object. "You wouldn't listen, so I looked at it for myself."
"What did you look at?" Layla asked impatiently.
"Layla dear, in the mail yesterday, you got a mail." Her mother told her.
"I always get mail." She replied. "Can I see it?"
"You don't understand honey." Layla's mother tried again. "The envelope this letter came in was very weird. It was about 5 1/2 inches by 5 1/2 and had this yellow-white color to it and-"
"Oh my gosh!" Layla screamed as she hopped out of her seat and charged upstairs.
"What is it?" Her mother hollered after her.
"You'll see!" Layla had grabbed a box while she was upstairs, and came down with it and a letter. The box was a polished brown color, and took the shape of a perfect square. It had ridges around the top and in the middle, going all around, were wands, pointy hats and sparks.
"What is that?" Layla asked while curiously looking at the box.
"It's what I recieved the last time I saw my father." Layla replies, not showing any feeling.
"Well, let's get back to the note." Layla's mother was getting very irritated.
"Mom, this has something to do with the note." Layla explained.
"It does?" Now her mother was curious.
"Yes." Layla began. "When my father gave me this box, he also gave me a letter. Here, I'll tell you what it says;
Layla,
I am so sorry I am leaving you alone, but your new parents are going to be great ones, I just know it. There is something very important thst I must do, and my life might be over before I finsh it. Please forgive me. When you recieve an envelope that is abput 5 1/2 inches by 5 1/2 inches with a yellow-white color to it, then you may open up the box that I gave you when I gave you this letter. Remeber, you may open up the box ONLY when you get a letter like the one I described.
Love,
Dad
"Should I open the box mom?" Layla motioned to the box she had brought down.
"It's time." Her mother replied, almost sadly.
"OK" Layla cautiously stepped towards the box. "Here I go." She closed her eyes as she opened it. In there was another letter and a locket. The locket was a silver heart with the Letter 'L' carved into it. Inside was a picture of her father and mother when her mother was pregnant with her. She was about to cry, but she didn't. She had to read the note.
"Go on honey" Layla's mother began. "It's about time you read that note."
"You're right." Layla replied, picking up the note. SHe opened it and this is what it said:
Layla,
I see that you've received your letter, and know you are a Powers that is going to be going to a Powerzcraft and Powerladry school.
"What?" shouted Layla. "I'm a powers!"
"That's what I wanted to tell you honey." Her mother quietly replied. "Right when I was about to say that the note said that you are a Powers, and you were accepted to a Powerzcraft and Poweladry school, but you ran upstairs before I got the chance."
"Oh." Layla said, disappointed at herself for being so mean. "Sorry."
"No worrys." Her father butted in. "Let's get on with the note now, shall we?"
"OK" Layla and her mother agreed. They all went on, reading the note quietly to themselves.
Now You must understand why I left you. I am the Head of the Association of Powers. We (your mother and I) wanted you to grow up with all the other kids with powers, but when your mother died, my ideas changed. I knew that whoever took care of you would raise you and learn to love you just as much as your mother and I would.
All my love,
Dad
Tears were welling up in Layla's eyes. "I can't believe it. He is alive, and has been waiting for me my whole life. Just as I had thought. Now I can go back to him and live with him forever." she cried joyfully. "A dream com true!"
"We'll miss you. Very much." Her mother told her with tears in her eyes, too. Layla ran over to her and gave her a huge hug. They stood there for about 3 minutes before they finally pulled apart. "Now how 'bout you read your letter from Mountios School of Advanced Powerzcraft and Powerladry."
"OK" Layla looked around a little bit. "Where is it?"
"Yes, right. It's right here." her father handed her the envelope.
"Here goes nothing." She took out the letter, and read it out loud;
