Hey guys! So this is a new one that just kind of came to mind the other day. I hope you enjoy it. I don't own Twilight.
The wind whipped my hair and I tugged my cloak closer around my shoulders. Thunder rumbled across the sky as I rush through the forest. I was running on memory alone, the night too dark to see much. A flash of lightning brightened the world around me for just a moment, but it was enough to jump over a fallen log that might have tripped me otherwise. The trees groaned around me as the rain pelted down on them without cease. A corned of my cloak caught on a branch and I let out a curse as I tugged it free. Those mere seconds could have cost me everything.
I could hear footsteps behind me as the twigs snapped. I pushed myself faster through the forest. I would not go back there. This couldn't be what my life was for. I winced as a branch caught my arm, and I was sure that it tore through the skin there. I didn't let it slow me down as I continued running.
I broke through the line of trees and a sob went out of me at the open field. There would be no hiding there. I could still hear the footsteps back in the forest, and open field or no, I continued running. At the right of the field, I spotted a small cabin. I never knew anyone lived out here, but there must still be a great deal that I didn't know about this kingdom. I pushed myself faster until I reached the door of the building. I could see a small lantern inside so I knew someone was home and they were awake. I pounded on the door, looking over my shoulder to see if anyone else had broken from the edge of the forest. "Please, please help!"
The door cracked open to reveal a young man inside, his brown eyes reluctant. "What?"
I pushed back my hood, letting my golden hair fall around me. The man's eyes widened as he took in the waves of my hair and the bright blue eyes, well known throughout this land. His jaw dropped slightly as the opened the door wider to really take in the finery of my clothes, even though they were now soaked through and dirty. His gaze came up once more to notice the small tiara placed on my head, and the door opened fully. "I am your princess and I need shelter. Now."
Please continue on for your first real chapter!
