Ok everybody, my computer is acting up so until I can get it running it is going to show up a one huge chapter.  I will label the chapters and it may be a little confusing but please bear with me.   Thanks!

Disclaimer- Yeah I know that I don't own any of the characters. The only ones I do own are who I make up in my little mind.  Such as Ariel. Thank you very much.

            Prelude

            A girl not more than 18 years old stirred in bed. She sat up and sighed. 'I am never going to get to sleep.' She thought. With another sigh she rolled out of her bed and stuffed her feet into a pair of red slippers.  In a cranky mood she stumbled out the door into the cool May air.  She closed her eyes and stood like that for a while.

            Relaxed she walked over to her hammock and lay down for the remainder of the night.

            When she awoke she gasped.  She was in a huge forest and all alone. She sat up and realized that she wasn't in her hammock. She was lying on a bed of soft grass, and it was cold out. Involuntarily she shivered. ' Where am I? This sure is not Ohio."

            She stood and looked around.  Slowly she walked to the north and was greeted by the sight of a clear crystalline river. The river was so clean that she could see the bottom and pick out the rock s on the bottom. She walked down, following the river for a while.  Finally it became clear that she had no idea where she was.

            'Wonderful. I am out in the wilderness alone.  I am in my pajamas and slippers, and am lost. What a great start to a day.' She thought. So immersed in her thoughts she didn't notice that she had stumbled onto a road, at first.

            "Holy crap!" she cried when she was almost hit by rider on a gray horse. Quickly she stumbled back and watched as the horse wheeled around. A person with a dark cloak was atop the creature. It walked up to her and the person jumped off. The girl backed away and the person laughed lightly.

"You have no reason to fear me young one." The figure said. The girl realized that it was a woman's voice. The woman threw back her cloak and the girl gasped. Before her stood the loveliest woman she had ever seen.

            Her hair was a dark brown and was flowing in soft waves down to her waist. She had chocolate brown eyes and sharp features.  But even more amazing was the fact that she had- pointed ears!! The girl stared at her. The woman smiled and lightly said, " Have you not seen an elf before? What is your name child?"

"An elf?" squeaked the girl. 'There is no such thing as elves- is there?' she met the woman's eyes and fainted.

Well what do you think? If you like it than please review! Thanks!
