Currently Untitled, chapter 1
I ended up watching my own funeral from behind some sort of green bush with flowers on it. A small crowd was huddled around the one place in the large field, all dressed in black and sobbing their eyes out. Honestly I wanted to have a happier funeral than this but we can't always get what we want can we? I grabbed the small rucksack on my right containing a few things that I had managed to sneak from my own house only a few hours before now, due to my village's beliefs and superstitions I knew I wouldn't be able to stay for very long. In this village if someone was to suddenly come back from the dead like I somehow did they would probably react to how people would react to a witch in the 17th century.
The small crowd was starting to leave the field now, I watched until they were all out of sight before running to the place they were once mourning. My gravestone was almost the hight of me! It was covered in flowers like white daisies and morning glories, a couple of teddy bears, cards and lastly a photograph of me at my most recent birthday with two of my brothers, Chad and Sam.
I looked at the message left for me on the gravestone, ''Raina Oliver, rest in peace our beloved friend, sister and daughter,'' I could feel tears filling up in my eyes so I closed them as quickly as I could before running into the nearby forest and out of the village I had once called home.
It was several hours before I finally spotted the next town Grogre not too far in the distance and I was just about to carry on walking towards it when I was suddenly approached by a man in a blue police uniform, this was strange because I didn't think they patrolled this far out.
''Are you okay Miss? It's rare to see a girl your age to be travelling alone.''
''I'm fine sir, thanks for checking on me,'' I responded politely trying to finish the conversation as quickly as possible.
''Are you heading anywhere special?'' He clearly wasn't gonna let me go anywhere anytime soon.
''I'm going to my aunt's home.''
''Where's that?''
"Ninjago City, nowhere special.''
''That's a pretty long walk, do you want me to come with you?'' I was getting nervous with all the questions being asked, I didn't feel like I could trust this man for too much longer.
''No I'll be meeting up with my uncle halfway I'll be fine,'' I went around him and quickly ran off as fast I possibly could ignoring and shouts from the man to call me back and I didn't stop until I was in Grogre but by that time it was just about turning dark and the sky was filling up with even darker rain clouds which wasted no time soaking me to the bone with raindrops.
I eventually spotted a large mansion sized building with a sign saying 'The Merry Inn'. I decided to ask the owners of this inn if it was possible for me to sleep in the reception for the night though the moment I walked through the door and the woman behind the counter saw me I knew something was gonna happen.
''Oh my dear!'' The woman gasped, ''stay right there Sweetie I'm just going to get you a towel!'' She left the room and came back just as quickly before my brain had even processed what was happening, she wrapped the green coloured towel around my shoulders before kneeling down to my height. ''Sweetie where are your parents? Oh never mind come this way and I'll get you something warm to wear.
''Um Miss I can't pay you-'' I protested by she quickly waved me off.
''Money isn't a problem dear, I can't just leave you soaking wet here can I?'' She quickly led me into a kitchen with stone floors and sat me down on a chair at a table in the centre of the room next to a girl with dirty blond hair, blue eyes and looked to be almost half my age.
''Now Sweetie what's your name?'' The woman asked as she started boiling water in a kettle.
I knew it would probably be a bad idea to use my actual name so I tried to come up with one on the spot, ''A-Andy!'' That was a bad one!
''Andy? Is that short for Andrea?''
''Huh? Er yeah it is,'' Andrea I would of never thought that, I always thought Andy was short for Andrew…
''Well Andy I'm Camillia (1) and this here is my daughter Sara,'' she stated while placing a ceramic mug filled with hot chocolate in front of me, ''now dear why are you here, has something happened to you or your family?''
''No Camillia I'm just heading to my Aunt's home.''
''Ooo Miss where does your Aunt live? Mine lives in the seaside village, have you ever been there Miss?'' Sara asked while getting up and standing on her chair.
''Um my Aunt lives in Ninjago City and yeah I'm actually from the same village as where your Aunt lives.''
Camillia started putting dishes away that were on the side of the sink before speaking to us, ''Sara could you take Andy up to your room and get her some new clothes, she'll be sleeping in your room tonight.''
I was going to protest but Sara was too quick, she grabbed my hand and pulled me out of the kitchen, up a flight of stairs and into a room that was almost completely made up of pink and white colours.
When I wasn't expecting it Sara pushed a pair of orange shorts and a slightly oversized blue shirt and then she turned away to sort out some kind of make-up bed on the floor with a thick blanket which was under her bed.
I got changed as quickly as possible before Sara had finished the make-up bed and got out a map from the bottom of her wardrobe. As I first looked at the map I recognised it as the whole of Ninjago.
''So Miss you're going to Ninjago City?'' I nodded my head, ''I think you have to go through the Frozen Wastelands to get there, please be careful Miss the Frozen Wastelands are full of Treehorns and the Frozen Asylum is somewhere out there.''
''I'm sorry but Frozen Asylum?''
''Yes Miss I learnt about it at school,'' I was a little confused that a girl as young as Sara had learnt about an Asylum at school but I wasn't gonna ask. ''It's a hospital for people who are dangerous to society.''
Just then Camillia came into the room to tell us to go to bed so the both of us got into our beds before Camillia turned out the lights.
''Goodnight Miss.''
Pagebreak- I thought I worked for the Indigo Ninja…
Me- you still do and I'm paying you extra to be the pagebreak here as well.=
Pagebreak- you pay me?!
Me- I send you pay checks in the mail, don't you get them?
''Miss can you wake up now?'' I light voice cut into my dreamless sleep. I opened my eyes slowly to find Sara hanging over me, her dirty blond hair almost touching my face. ''Oh Miss you're awake! Mom just called us for breakfast!''
Sara brought me into a medium sized dining hall with around thirteen wooden tables, each have about four chairs between them. There was also a buffet line on the right side of the room with Camillia behind the counter serving food to a small family of four with a man with blond hair, probably her husband or something.
Sara suddenly came up to me with two plates, both with toast and orange juice on them. I suddenly realised that she had gotten my own breakfast! How did she do it that fast! The two of us sat down on the nearest table and started eating quickly.
''Good morning Andy, did you sleep alright?'' Camillia said as she came over to us.
''Yes I did, I'll be leaving just after breakfast, thanks for letting me stay the night.''
''If you must, at least take some food, a map and-'' She suddenly walked off without finishing her sentence properly, I looked back to Sara who was just about to finish drinking her orange juice.
''Your rucksack is up in my room right? You go get it and I'll pack you some food!''
It wasn't too long till I was standing in the doorway of the inn, Sara was saying goodbye by hugging me tightly around the waist. Here father, who's name was Eric. was fitting a packed lunch and clothes into my rucksack, he had also put a map of Ninjago in one of the side pockets. I had just swung the rucksack onto my back when Camillia came in holding two leather pouches which she then strapped to each of my legs.
''I haven't used these tessen fans in years and if your going through the frozen wastelands you'll need them,'' as she said this I reached into the leather pouch and took out some kind of fan that appeared to be made of iron rather than paper, it was a light grey colour with blue flowers painted on. The three people who were so kind to me said their goodbye's to me and I went on my way towards the Wastelands.
It got cold extremely quickly as I went deeper into the snowy land, I was just about to take out a jumper Eric had previously given me as I was leaving when there was a sudden explosion followed by sounds of cheering and then some kind of crowd running towards me.
I jumped behind a thick birch tree when a crowd of a about a hundred people, ranging from very young children to people in their late teens. It actually took around five or even six minutes for the large crowd to pass, once it had I came out from behind the tree and into the centre of the road I was originally walking on. I was just about to turn back around and carry on my way when I suddenly heard another sound of someone running towards me and then something extremely heavy fell onto me.
Me and the thing ended up rolling all the way down the hill and eventually into some kind of small ditch, I closed my eyes for the impact that never came. I opened my eyes to find that I had actually landed on the girl!
I jumped off her as quick as I could and lent down to see whether she was breathing or not, ''can we do that again?'' The girl suddenly said as she used her hands to get up, she seemed pretty much unharmed.
''Excuse me but are you okay?''
''Huh?
''I just landed on you after you fell on me,'' I paused for a moment while thinking what I just said through, ''at least I think it was you who fell on me.''
The girl now was sitting cross-legged in front of me and I could now see her properly, she had quite dark brown hair which fell to just above the girl's upper arm, she also had green eyes although one of them was slightly paler than the other. The girl was wearing grey shorts, a t-shirt and no shoes, there was also a nasty looking cut which she seemed to have gotten during the fall as it was still bleeding. I was about to ask another question when the girl started giggling, ''yeah! I did land on you, you were in the way!''
''Never mind, there's a town down that way you can get someone to heal that wound on your leg there,'' I said while I got up and climbed up the ditch and back on to the road. I had only walked a few metres when I heard footsteps behind me, I turned around to see the girl directly behind me, ''no the town is the other way, just a five minute walk you don't need me with you.''
I walked off again, this time I got to the top of the hill where I could see everything that was around me, including the girl who again was behind me!
''Why are you following me?'' I said as she stood smiling a me, ''I don't have the medical supplies to help you.''
''But before the explosion happened I was told to follow the nearest person and that's you!'' She exclaimed pointing to me.
I sighed and facepalmed, ''fine, follow me until we get to the next town, I need to get to Ninjago City as fast as possible so that means no backtracking.''
''Okay captain!''
''Huh? Oh yeah what's your name? I'm err… Andy,'' still trying to get used to a fake name.
''0124, what's your name?''
''I already told you my name! And besides what do all those numbers mean?''
''You stuttered so Andy can't be your name and 0124, it's my name!''
I stood for a few moments, I was kinda shocked that she could tell that Andy wasn't my actual name just because I didn't say it properly. As for her name being just numbers I wasn't going to ask, my best guess is that she's from the asylum around here and that was her patient number or something like that.
''fine my name's Raina, is there anything other than 0124 that I could call you?''
''Oh um, could you pick a name?" She giggled before speaking again, ''I can't pick one and you seem to know lots more names than me!"
''Fine I'm gonna call you Emily okay?'' She nodded happily.
''Let's go Raina! To a town!'' This girl is crazy!
