"Bye! See you tomorrow!" Soreina waved back to her friend who was in the café.

Soreina Summers was a carefree and hardworking kind of girl. She was a chef at a café working alongside her friends. She seems to bring smiles on people's faces as she asked for their orders and was always seem to be happy. Or so what everyone thought she was.
Hidden behind her happy and helping nature, she actually had a really sad past. Her parents died in a car crash years ago when she was very young and she was left in the care of her old uncle. Her uncle taught her lots of things like cooking, learning new languages and( oddly enough) using weapons. Everyone thought her uncle was strange, but she didn't mind.

It wasn't after when she was in the middle of her highschool year that her uncle died in a terrible street crossing accident. She was then left alone. No family member could take care of her because they all lived faraway, so after that she decided that she would become a hardworking girl just like her uncle and parents would have wanted. She'd ride her bike to school everyday and ride back home again to her uncles house.

The house that she lived on her own in for years, surrounded by Monrea town's huge forest to this day.

Soreina was driving on the forest path that lead to her house. While she was driving she decided to recite some new words she learnt in her language class.

" Bonjour! J'maple Soreina Summers!" she tried in French
Soreina had actually taken an interest to languages and history that she actually borrowed some books from the local library to learn languages that people at her campus didn't know

" Sore ga ai deshou?" she recited after remembering a Japanese manga romance novel that she once read.

" Mi Corazon…" she spoke remembering a Spanish song that she heard playing at the café the other day.

" Der we gist endlos weit, die halbe ewigheit…" she sang a bit of a song that was in german

" Aguila che tocca il cielo…" she sang another part of a different song in itlalian

" Tha mo ghoal air aird a chuain…" she sang out her song title by her one of her faveourite Gaelic, celtic singers, Julie fowlis

Until she reached home, Soreina had recited 10 or more bits and pieces of languages. She got her stuff out of her car and took a look at her house, it had a black tiled roofed and it was quite a big cozy looking house with to trees on either side of it. One of the trees had a tree house in it. She gave out a sad smile as she remembered the good memories with her uncle and parents when she was little.

*Flashback*

" Wow! Uncle look! I can see the whole town from this tree!" little Soreina cried from her tree house.

"Yes the whole of Monrea town is beautiful, but to tell the truth I think the whole world is even more beautiful…"

Her eyes widened " Have you been around the world uncle?" she asked curiously.

" No I haven't, but it be wonderful to be able to travel around the world and do the sightseeing of all the beautiful landscapes…" he answered

"That sounds so amazing! When I'm older I'm going to travel around the world!" she replied back in excitement.
"Well if you hold on to your dream and never let go, then your wish might come true…" her uncle replied.

"I will!" Soreina says with her turquoise eyes glimmering with excitement." I will open up my own restaurant and work super hard to earn lots of money to travel around the world!"
Her uncle chuckles, "Ah… such a fiery spirited little girl" he replied petting her head.
Then her parents called her, signaling that it was time to go home.

*End of flashback*

Soreina's turquoise eyes turned dim and felt like she was about to cry. For a few seconds past, she just stood their, until her eyes sparkled with determination again.

" Right! I cannot let something like that hold me back!" she declared as she went inside to put her stuff in her house.
She threw her coat on the couch and went upstairs to change. She untied her wavy auburn hair and and wore a simple light blue dress, as she went downstairs she remembered something.

" Oh! I can't believe I have forgotten! I have to take out the trash!"
She went outside to put the rubbish in the bin, as closed the bin she thought she saw something in the smaller trees.

" what was that?" she wondered.

Then this time the thing rustled through the bushes again, this time she could see it a little clearly.

The thing was a creature in fact, it was flying in the air it seemed to be the size of a small puppy and oddly enough, it was mint green in colour.
Soreina thought it was a bird, but she got a strange feeling telling her that it wasn't a bird.

" That must be a bird!" she whispered. " but… birds are not mint green with bunny ears!"
Then the mint green bird thing flew into the forest, and without thinking, Soreina ran after it.

She ripped through the forest keeping her eyes locked on the mint green bird thing.

" yes… uncle told me that this forest has been for more than a thousand years. He always told me stories and legends about this forest when I was little, he said that some people believed that magical creatures lived here. He also told me a legend that if you go really, really deep in the forest…"

"You would see another world, only magical…"

"But still!" she said aloud, still following the bird thing. "There are no such thing as magic and no such creature like this!" but even though her mind told her to stop, she kept running.
She was picking up speed, yep she could see the creature clearer now. It was in the shape of a small rabbit and had little paws.

Soreina could see light up ahead but then she realized it wasn't normal sunlight from a forest clearing. The shining light itself was shining bright blue and she could feel an odd tingly sensation as she got closer.

The rabbit creature disappeared through the light and Soreina ran through it too.
Swirls of really bright colours shimmered around her and she could feel the tingly sensation even stronger now her mind was out of control and she didn't know what was going on, and then she heard some voices singing faintly.

"Draw a circle, that's the earth…"

"Draw a circle, that's the earth…"

"Draw the circle, that's the earth…"

The blue shimmering light around her was getting brighter and brighter. Soreina panicked and covered her eyes so she would be protected by the blinding light
"WHAT IS GOING ON!?" she panicked even more.
After what seems like minutes, long minutes that passed, the bright light and the sining starts fading away.

Fading…

Fading…

Fading…

She opened her eyes. The bright light wasn't there anymore and instead of being within the dark forest trees, she was in a meadow and she was standing on a gravel pathway.
"How an earth did I get here?" she wondered. "And where is that flying green rabbit?"
She started walking down the pathway, her mind full of things that she just couldn't make out.
"First I was in running through the dark depths of Monrea forest, and now I'm somewhere else? What is going on here?"
She kept walking until she could see a big building up ahead. She started jogging faster so she could take a closer look.
The building was painted white, she though it looked like a government's house, only slightly smaller.

As she walked past the house, she could hear people arguing and fighting inside it. She also noticed that some members of this family had different accents.
" This family must have not gotten along with each other if I could hear a fight from the outside. And a pretty big family too." she shook her head as she continued to walk down the path.

Suddenly she heard glass crashing and turned to look. She saw a big, hard wooden chair with red velvet lining crashed and went flying out the window. Unfortunately, the chair wasn't just going to land on the ground.

…It was flying straight at her…

Soreina froze and her turquoise eyes flashed in fear. She would have tried to dodge it but every part of her body was paralyzed with fear, making her unable to move. She saw the big chair coming nearer and nearer, closer and closer…
And just by instinct, Soreina screamed and waited to brace for impact.

e...
