Chapter 1: Dreams

People always say that you can control your dreams but I never really got it. I mean, how? I never know when I dream until I wake up and see that it wasn't true. That nothing really happened. Is it really just me? It sounds kind of scary, you know. You can't control your dreams. Oh! It sounds like a good theme for a movie! But what is happening to me now is neither a movie nor a dream. Because I know that it's real, and if it isn't, then please… Let me wake up…

It was a normal day. As usual I woke up too late and had to skip breakfast and run to school. I was a normal girl, you know with short brown hair, green eyes, black converse, a blue backpack, a white t-shirt and jeans.
Well… Maybe I wasn't that normal… I didn't have any parents due to a car accident when I was nine years old, I haven't really gotten over it. I'm not saying that I'm depressed. Of course I'm sad but I have my little sister that I have to take care of so I have to stay cheerful.
Anyway, I was on my way to school when suddenly everything went black. I don't mean black like when you're unconscious. It was like I was in a black room.
Of course I got scared and started to scream and run. Or, at least I tried. I could scream alright but there was something wrong with my legs. When I looked down I didn't see two legs trying to move. What I saw was a FIN trying to move.

OMG!OMG!OMG!OMG! What the hell is happening! Everything went black and now i'm turning into a fish? WHAT THE HECK! That was the only thing I could think before everything went black. And now I mean black as in unconscious.

Sorry for the short chapter... I promise that the next one will be longer!
