"Anthony, are you ready?" I yelled to my slow-poke brother that was upstairs doing an horrible job at getting ready on time.
"Yeah, just give me one moment!" Anthony yelled back in a somewhat annoyed tone. What is he annoyed for? I'm the one who has a dance contest to get to, well, okay so I go to a lots of dance contests these days, it's just there is nothing else to do! So it's his own dang fault, he keeps me cooped up in this house we call home all day with nothing but jig-saw puzzles to do, so I get to have my well deserved revenge by not being old enough to drive without someone else that has a driver's license in the car!
"Well how many more moments do you need? Because I clearly remember you saying one more moment an hour ago!" I was really getting tired of this.
"Okay, I'm ready, lets go." He said hastily, as he ran down the stairs.
"Are you sure?" I said sarcastically.
"What do you mean?" A puzzled look swept across his face. And I laughed, "never mind."
He frowned for a second, then went to the door, and finally rolled his eyes, "You never stop, do you?"
"Took ya long enough, and nope, no stop button on this girl." I smirked.
Anthony sighed and we went out the door and into the car. Anthony drove his truck through the wet streets of Montana, and passed the forest which I love a lot, I loved the fall, where all the trees are orange and red and yellow, it's truly a beautiful time of the year. And I almost gasped yet again as we turned around a bend, and saw a waterfall so beautiful, the water went down effortlessly and the way the rocks were formed, it was a match made in heaven, I was just getting used to the beauty of it all, even though I had been here since birth and throughout my childhood, I was always in the dance studio or going deep diving in the nearby lake, but I never had the real chance to experience the actually beauty of it all, it sadden me that we were driving by and needed to get a dance contest and leave it all once again.
I looked at the clock and noticed we are supposed to be there in an hour! We live way out here in the middle of nowhere and we have to get to somewhere in an hour!
"Anthony, why do you have to drive like an old fart in a rain storm?" I asked my brother while he swept the honey blonde hair out of his eyes.
He turned slowly to me and held a emotionless expression, "Because I am an old fart driving in a rain storm, Adona." He said in a emotionless voice, I laughed, he thinks he's an old fart compared to me, he is 36 years old and I'm 15. So close to 16, just two more days!
"Aww, don't talk like that, your just 21 years older then me, I'm just a young fart. Plus you get to do anything you want!" I did a fake pout, and he grunted.
"Anything I want?" He did a ghost smile, " Can I go without paying taxes, or can I release the memories of the past?" My eyes widened and my back straitened suddenly and the mistake of bringing up memories took it's toll, my mind started to go through the painful memories that happened just two years ago.
Flashback
I looked into the distance and my eyes wandered about the African fields, it amazed me on how just plain desert can be so beautiful, there was a magic about it that made you rethink life, life is so amazing, is the thought that would keep coming into my mind.
"Miss Adona, my name is Abayomi, and I was informed that I was to escort you to Tureta." Abayomi said with a half hearted smile.
"Well, hello then Abaiymoi." I said with a sarcastic tone.
"It's Abayomi." He corrected.
"Whatever, I'll just call you Abay."
"Mis-" Abayomi was cut off almost right away.
"Look, the only reason I'm here, is because my emotionless stuck-up lame excuse for a father, decided that I was at fault for my so called "disrespectfulness" if that is even a word, and sent me to you because he doesn't have the balls to deal with me himself, well he can stick it, do whatever you want to me…I don't care anymore." I burst out, I didn't mean to go that harsh on him, heck I don't think he even understood half of what I said, all he gave me was a confused/saddened look, and after a long and very uncomfortable silence, someone finally came with an older looking jeep that has no doors or windows except the windshield, and it looked very dirty.
I just stared at it and hoped I didn't have to go in that, but my hopes were dashed when some strange Texas dudes jumped out and greeted us.
"Hey y'all, ya ready ta go?" One guy said with good ol' Texas charm.
"Not really." I said with yet again a sarcastic tone, I wasn't really in the mood to deal with these guys, Abayomi was more than enough to deal with, now these dudes? I was still exhausted from the screaming fights I had with my Father, not Dad, Father. Why are you so mad at your Father, you say? Well lets see, I did something called suicide training. Which I trained in dancing so much, my brother Mark had to tell me to stop because my feet were shredded and I had been covered in bruises. I was so driven to impress my Father that I didn't care and I kept training day after day. I sent letters to him telling him how proud I was to have him as a Father and that I couldn't wait to see him, but when I went to the base he was stationed at for my birthday and I told him how hard I worked for him, my four-star general father didn't even look me in the eye. He told me he knew about all the work I'd done, he didn't give me thumbs up or even down, he didn't praise or criticized it, he in fact did nothing, and when I argued about it he would argue back saying I was being disrespectful. He never sent me anything for my birthday, he barely acknowledged my existence, and I didn't take it too well. But after everything I'm beat, emotionally most of all.
"Well, you must be Miss Adona." The first guy said looking me up and down. I probably look like a tired mess, from all that traveling straight from my Fathers base.
"Mmm hmm," was all he's going to get.
"A little on the younger side, aren't cha?" The second guy said.
"Well, what did you expect? A 47 year old with an eye patch and four missing teeth, maybe?" I guessed.
"Ha ha, no, but someone other then you." I glared at his less then sarcastic tone.
"Well, sorry to disappoint, did you want me to find someone else? Because I'd be more then happy to get back home and YOU to get back to wherever you came from in this God-forsaken heat." I said with a smile.
"No no, that won't be necessary, Miss Adona, your Father requires you to stay here until you…um…learn your lesson." He said trying to remember.
I blinked several times, my mouth was open, and I was hurt, how could he possibly hurt me more then he already did? The man is truly amazing.
"What lesson did he want me to learn? He got exactly what was coming to him!" I hissed, and shot a death glare at the snickering first man.
Abayomi just shrugged," I don't know he was to brisk with his information."
"Well, then let's get out of here so I can 'learn my lesson'." I picked up my things, and headed to the car.
End of flashback.
Thank the Lord I forced myself to stop thinking about those painful memories, I looked over to Anthony, who was not as lucky as I, his eyes clouded over with memories and his face held a look that indicated the worst kind of pain, his wife and five year old son died in a fire only a year ago, he still is very crushed at their deaths, as am I, my nephew meant the world to me, and I have adopted his wife as the sister I never had. I am so sorry, Anthony…look at his face. Do something!
"Monkeys are special too!" I yelled to get the memories out of his head.
He snapped his head to me and his deep brown eyes locked with mine in an intense stare.
"Sorry, I just wanted to get your mind off things." I gulped, man that guy really knows how to creep people out!
"Yes, I know." And just after the light turned green he turned away, thank God that we're close to the dance competition.
When we finally got to the competition, it was already too late, I already exploded from the intenseness in the air, I just didn't let Anthony hear it. And when we stopped I busted through the door and ran to get away from the intenseness, and I screamed to let the intense moment to pass through. And just as I was done (and if your thinking what I think you thinking, then you are thinking wrong), my dance partner, Gray, came through the doors and greeted me with a big hug.
"Your just in time! I thought you got sucked up by a tornado! Or worse, eaten by a grizzly bear!" He yelled. Gray is a very good looking 6 foot 1, green eyed, sandy haired, well built guy.
"Good, Ana ( I like to call Anthony that, but not near him, of course, I'm not stupid) was driving like an old man, and if I got sucked up by a tornado I would scream at it to throw me over here!" I stated in a dramatic way.
"I doubt it will listen because…hmm…let me think…IT'S WEATHER!" He yelled even though I'm right in front of him.
I just stuck my tongue out at him, and got ready for our turn, we have won all but four contests that Gray and I have entered in. And we have entered 26 contests, boy that's a lot considering that we have only been doing this for 3 years! Trust me we have worked our arses off many times! I entered the door of a huge stadium that was one of the biggest in the state of Montana.
I was applying my make-up when my frienemy, Stacy, came along. We have a contemptuously sisterly sort of relationship with each other, in the best sort of way. We give each other our friendship yet we insult one another too.
"Oh hi ,Ada, how are you this lovely afternoon?" She said in a sarcastic tone.
"I am awfully pleasant, you, my dear?" I said in an cheerful voice, and gave her my biggest grin.
"Okay, cut the crap you two." Her dance partner, John, interfered.
"It's fine, Johnny, we were just greeting one another." Stacy said.
"Yep." I agreed. John sighed and walked away. Stacy turned to me and gave me a disgusted look.
"Oh honey, your make-up doing is more than awful, it's…it's bad enough to make Bigfoot scream!" She exclaimed dramatically. Then she took the make-up from my hand and started to apply, after she was done she said, "There you go, now, Bigfoot would only gasp."
"Wow, thanks you're a miracle worker!" I said sarcastically.
"All in a days work, now Ada darling go get your clothes on!" She yelled. And ran away, I just shook it off and sighed, and looked at myself in the mirror then stared at my eyes, and a shiver ran down my spine, they were definitely creepy, they are a very light shade of gray, some people think my eyes are white, but it's just a very misty color, don't worry I hate them too.
"Come on, Ada, it's almost are turn!" Gray said running around the corner.
"I'm going to get my clothes on." I said with a smile and skipped away.
Our turn, the other couple just did a ballet routine, we are going to do our hip-hop/ acrobatics routine, some day when I'm old enough, we want to join Cirque du Soleil, ah, it is a dream, of course, running away to the circus, it was every child's dream.
We do extremely dangerous stunts when we dance, I have gone to the hospital on many accounts of dancing, but it is all worth it in the end. What, you think, I'm a Mary-Sue? Well, someone has to entertain the adrenaline junkies.
After we were done the crowed went wild, and I raise a hand to God thanking him that nothing went wrong, because there are four tricks we do that if gone wrong I could very well die, someone upstairs is looking out for us, so I want to thank Him.
Then Stacy and John went and did a Waltz with lots of lifts and jumps, and after they were done I went over to them.
"Wow, I was really scared when you did that half flip twist! Don't do that again, because it's too cool!" I said grinning.
"Oh, do worry because we will always do it." She said softly sarcastic.
"Always?" John said in a worried tone, he was the one at risk, or should I say his soft spot is at risk.
"Yes, always." She said grinning and she and I laughed at his expression, we laughed harder when he cringed, poor John…
"Come on! Let's go get our results!" I exclaimed, and skipped away really fast.
Once I got to the result platform where everyone can see you and everyone was waiting for the next couple to come, so I was the only one up there, everyone was really getting bored, and that is the last thing you want to happen, so I grabbed the microphone and yelled, "What's the matter? Is anyone having fun?"
The crowd said no and nodded their head from side to side. "Well, you want to see some awful dancing that you can laugh at?"
The crowd then said "Yeah!"
"Well, then hit it boys!" And they started playing 'Let it Rock' by Kevin Rudolf, then I started dancing the most awful dance moves I could think of, I love making a fool of myself if it makes people laugh. If they don't laugh, I might as well die of embarrassment.
Stacy finally came out, walking over towards me and we started dancing together and the music turned into a Tango, so we started dancing the Tango together, and we laughed and laughed she played the woman part and I the man part. Afterwards the crowd was riled up again and we kept dancing until the other couple was ready.
"That was awesome!" I exclaimed, "We need to do that again!"
"I know!" She yelled over the deafening music.
After the last couple danced and we waited for the results, I hoped we would get second place, since I was no longer so driven to win, I wanted other people to get a chance to win against me, like Stacy or a girl named Maya.(I'll tell more.)
All of the sudden people clapped and wooted, and everybody turned to me and Stacy.
"You both won!" They all yelled.
"REALLY!" I yelled jumping up and down, that was better, now we didn't have to leave on rough terms! Me and Stacy hugged, and John and Gray shook each others hand (boys).
"Congrats, looks like you won…again." The girl named Maya said, she really doesn't like me, what reason I don't know myself, but she is a nice girl and has done some nice things, I guess some people just don't click.
"Oh, thanks, I'm sure you'll win the next one." I said with a sincere smile, I really did wish she would win the next one she has worked almost as hard as me, and that was while I did suicide training, so that is truly impressive. She grunted and left though, probably thought I was sarcastic.
Once we said our goodbyes I left and walked down to the next gas station and bought myself a 'Snickers' for winning just enough to come in for a tie with Stacy. And started walking down farther to the book store where Anthony was, he never liked big crowds so would just wait somewhere, he usually preferred bookstores.
About half way there, there was a loud sound in the forest, it sounded like screaming. I wonder who is screaming, should I go help? And then the screaming got louder, I stopped on the road where I was walking and started walking toward the screaming. What if you were screaming for your life and nobody was there to help? Huh? Go on you coward! Your Father and almost all your brothers are warriors and here you are just standing there when someone is in need! And I started running fast and once I got to the source of the screaming I stopped a branch was in the way so I moved the branch away from my view and let go of the branch and took a step back at what I saw, it was a woman getting attacked by a mountain lion, Oh no, not this again! I've already been attacked by lions before, many time in fact. I stood there not wanting to get attacked again, but painful memories started to seep into my veins, the painful memories that contained all the time I saw other people getting attacked, NO! This will not happen again!, so I pulled off my jacket and I jumped into action, and started stabbing the animal over and over with a hunter's knife that I always keep in my pocket for these kind of situations, and it finally let go, and it stared at me, it looked like it was waiting for me to do something wrong, but didn't wait, and started coming after me! No, run, just run you can't take it!
I ran and ran, but the lion was really really mad, and was faster than me, it then jumped on my back and started clawing at me, but all of the sudden this huge white wolf came from a bush and started attacking the mountain lion, it was the most coolest thing to watch, they jumped on each other, the lion tried to scratch the white wolf, but it was too fast, and the wolf bit it's neck and the lion probably thought no prey is worth this much of a fight and left, leaving the most beautiful white wolf I have ever seen alone, on it's hind legs it was probably two times my size, and I'm 5'8, so that is werewolf size!
I stared at the white wolf for minutes but I don't remember how many, it's eyes were the same color as mine except much deeper in wisdom and experience. I had a feeling it was expecting me to say something by the way it was looking at me, and it had so much wisdom behind those eyes, I thought maybe it could actually understand me.
"Thank you." I said as softly as I could, it bowed it's head almost in sadness. I reached out to touch it but it slowly walked away.
I suddenly remembered the girl the got attacked as well, so I ran back in the direction in which I came from, and when I came back the girl was still sitting there holding her knees, I touched her and checked her wounds, she didn't have many, just some scratches and bruising.
"Are you okay?" I asked with a worried tone. After a long time I asked again, no answer. "Come on, let's get you to the hospital." I tried to help her up but she didn't move, I wasn't just going to leave her here, I grabbed her arm and yanked her up, she fell back down, I sighed. I'm not going to leave her here, but what do I do to get her up and going? I'm too thin to pick her up and carry her…or could I?
"I'm sorry but I'm not going to leave you here, and since you won't move, I'll try to pick you up." I picked her up after some great effort, and only walked like two steps before I couldn't hold her up any longer, then I dropped her and got some scratches on the way, trust me I tried, I got up and brushed some twig and dirt off of me, mentally cursing myself for not exercising more than a few times a week, dancing not included.
"Look, I'm sorry you got attacked, but I got attacked too, and I would much rather get out of here before the lion comes back and decides to take it's revenge on one of us, or both of us, so please, let me help you up and let's get the heck out of here!" I said, actually realizing what I said, and was right the lion might well come back. I picked my jacket and put it on and pain shot up my back, but I shrugged it off until we got the hospital.
She finally looked up at me and blinked a few time, probably reality actually reaching her mind and got up without my help and started walking away, it was more like sleepwalking, I had to lead her to the next hospital, and went in.
"Um, excuse me, could you help us?" I asked the emergency room nurse.
"Why of course…what happened!" She exclaimed as looked up from her paperwork.
"We were attacked by a mountain lion just a few minutes ago about a mile away, west." I said calmly.
"Doctor Leanstein!" She yelled frantically.
"Yes." He came over quickly and checked the girl first and lead her away into a room. I just stood there not knowing what to do, I just started to walk out the door, but then Doctor Leanstein came over and grabbed my arm. "Where do you think your going you just got attacked!" he said while pulling me over to a station.
"I didn't get much of the attack, she was screaming in the distance, so I ran over to see what was wrong and when I saw the lion I started stabbing it, then it ran after me, and it just jumped on my back." I concluded, but by then the doctor was just staring at me wide-eyed. And then he checked my back and saw what I didn't see before, a large gash that went from my the back of my neck to the bottom of my right shoulder blade.
"Well, that is going to need stitches." He said with a calm voice. I sighed, yet another scar from a lion, I hate big cats, most people when they get attacked they are like 'it wasn't the animals fault' and 'I respect the animal more then I ever did'. Pathetic. I hate them!
"It will probably take some time, do you need a nurse to contact some family or something?" He said with a soft tone.
I cringed when I heard this, what was Erwin going to say? My overprotective twin, who hates our Father as much as me, he keeps telling me to be careful, but every time he comes home from his singing school in London I'm usually in the hospital, and then I get a scolding from him and Anthony and my other brother Mark, a three bigger brother scolding is truly more awful then getting hurt in the first place!
"I don't have to stay, do I?" I asked with big teary puppy eyes so maybe he'll let me go.
"No, but you'll have to come back every now and then for a check up." I relaxed and let go of a breath that I was holding. After three hours and 74 stitches, they let me go, but not without a report first, I didn't tell them about the white wolf, I had a feeling that they would go hunting it, even though it saved my life, what they don't know won't hurt them.
Now for Anthony, what to do, what to do? Maybe he doesn't have to find out about this, it's not like he is going to see me naked, but then again he does have to pay the bill…no wait I just won prize money! I smacked myself across the head, and paid in cash, so he won't know now, what excuse to use though…I went…walking! Yes I went walking and got a little side tracked, it's not entirely a lie, I DID go walking and I DID get side tracked. Okay now to talk to him with a straight face, I made my way over to the bookstore, and entered. I passed a few people who gave me some strange faces, then finally I found Anthony pacing back and forth.
"Hey, Anthony, sorry I'm late I decided to take a walk and smell the flowers." I said with an almost convincing smile. Anthony snapped his head toward me, and locked his eyes with mine, he studied me for a moment then hugged me, I had to stiffle a scream because he was hugging my back also.
"You had me scared almost to death, I checked the stadium and they said you left, and I checked almost EVERY store on the way here! And you were taking a walk! Without anyone? In the forest where bears and mountain lions are! What is wrong with you? I would have though that you would have SOME sense, especially since you were attacked before!" He pushed off of me and looked me in the eye "I already lost half of what I live for, don't make me lose you too." That right there just broke my heart into a thousand pieces.
"I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to make you worried, I just needed some air." I spoke as softly as I could, maybe he won't be as mad.
He sighed. "Just don't do it again, got it?"
I nodded, and we left for home, the drive back was almost as quite as the drive there, that gave me time to cope and think. I wonder what happened to that girl? I was too busy with trying to think of a way to get out of this mess without screaming brothers. I watched the trees and mountains pass by while I thought about everyone else I watched die from lions, three of them, Man-eaters, and I thought about all the other people who got attacked that survived, I have to think about those people, I should be lucky to have survived the case I went through because most people didn't. Some people said it was the tragedy of the year. So many people died in those small months. Don't think about the healing house! That was the worst night of my life, but I won't go into detail just yet. After what seemed like hours, and trying to lean over so my back wouldn't touch the seat, we finally got home, to yet again another surprise.
"How is my favorite sister?" My brother, Mark said with his charming smirk.
"Oh, how sweet, except you don't seem to notice two things: not only am I your only sister, I'm the only girl unfazed by your what most woman call charming smile." At this, he smile bigger, brighter and more innocent like. "Puh-leez, go get a life." I finished with an imitation smirk. Me and Mark are on the outsides of the family, our family is made of blondes, honey blond, white blond and cream colored too, but it looks like someone had a sense of humor *looks up to the sky*, and put us two in here, Mark has midnight black hair with very light blue eyes, my brothers call him the lady killer, I also have his hair colour, my brothers said he was teased and teased about it, and when me and Erwin came, he was relived to see me, and they called me the heart-breaker, they gave me that name when I was three!
"Is that anyway to treat your brother who has been slaving away at the microwave all day?" He put his wrist over his forehead as he was saying this.
"Oh, I'm sure you prepared the perfect gourmet food for us." Anthony's tone was dripping with sarcasm. And only after all that did I finally hug him, lightly though.
"See, even you can't resist the temptation." He smirked, I punched him and squeezed even harder, then when I let go after a long while of him complaining, he breathed for the first time in minutes.
I walked over to the table where Ana was already, Mark had made our favorite TV dinners as usual, mine was the turkey dinner and Anthony's was shrimp scampi, Mark's is the bow-tie pasta with cream sauce.
"You know, you guys and girls can get real groceries from a real store and eat real food and spend some real quality time together cooking the real food that you bought at a real store." Mark said once again, he has been harping on us about our food habits, it's just because he is used to the best food from the best quality restaurants, and maybe it's not good for us, but hey, nobody is perfect.
At this Ana lifted his head then tilted it toward Mark, then just as any brother would do he jumped out of his chair then tackled Mark from his chair and then they began to wrestle, I watched for about 30 minutes, then decided to do something useful like driving down to Mr. McMurry's ranch with my horse, Rain, I am completely in love with that horse, we both love the rain, so I named him Rain, he is a very spirited horse, who as I've heard only behaves when I'm around, so I pay Mr. McMurry double to keep him for me. So I wanted to give Mr. McMurry some relief, and visit him for a while.
"I'm going to see Rain for a bit, okay?" I said in a soft tone, so maybe they wouldn't hear me.
"Wait! I want to give you something!" Yelled Mark from the other room, when he came in his hair was tangled and his clothes were misplaced, but it was a dramatic change from what I left him with, his eyes were almost desperate and face was placed into a frown, he looked miserable.
"I want to give you this." His voice was deep and almost like a questioning tone, he opened his palm and inside was a old-fashioned flute, it had a green leaf like band wrapped around it, and some strange but beautiful marks on it, from some language that I didn't know.
"I…it's beautiful, Mark, but what is it for? What are the letterings? Why did you give this to me?" The questions would have just kept pouring out of my mouth, if it weren't for Mark holding up his hand.
"It's a very important gift, one that you can only use, not me, not Anthony, not anyone else, just you, but don't let it get in the hands of those who are your enemies, for it is magical, here is this note…you…you w-will learn in the future how to read it." He shoved a piece of paper in my hands with the flute. He stuttered I think for the first time in his life, he never stutters! Something was wrong, something was very wrong. I was about to say 'Magical'?
"Mark, why are you nervous? And you didn't answer my other question, why are you giving this to me?" I said with a worried tone.
Anthony, finally came into the room with a beer in his hand, and leaned against the wall, as he studied the scene before him he took a swig.
"What's going on?" He said as soon as he noticed my worried glance.
"Nothing, just giving Ada a gift." Mark said in a hasty tone.
Anthony raised an eye brow and came over to me giving me a hug, "You have a safe trip now, and be back about ten, okay?"
"Okay, I'll try to be back, but then again I might want to spend some more time with my boyfriend (cough cough Rain)." I said with a smirk.
"Well, just don't forget to tell your 'boyfriend' that if he keeps you too long I'm coming down, got it?" He said while giving me a nuggie.
"Well, even though this is a weird gift, it's beautiful and I'll accept it." As I said the last part he cringed, almost like he didn't want me to accept it. But despite that he gave me the gift, so I went up and hugged him, and tried to do so lightly because of my back, but he was hugging me like it's the last time he'll ever see me again, and this hurt so bad I shoved my face into his chest to stop myself from screaming yet again, this was really odd of him to squeeze me this hard, but I had to go if I wanted to see Rain, I'll deal with him later I thought.
"Dude, why are you hugging her for soooooooo loooooonnnnng? She is in so much pain from your stench she looks like she is going to cry! " Anthony dragged the first sentence on.
Mark let go of me, and looked down at me. Was that a tear in his eye? No, it can't be, he is not as tough as Ana, but he's no weakling either.
"Mark I'm just going to see Rain, I'm not running away or anything!" I said suddenly, I was really anxious to go, but I didn't want to see him cry!
"I know, it's just I haven't seen you in a while and I guess I'm a little tired is all, and the fact your going." He mumbled the last part and looked down.
"Well, I guess I can stay here, if you want." He looked up at me with light shone in his eyes for a brief second, then it disappeared, he didn't answer right away, almost like he was fighting to say something but decided against it.
"N-no, you go. But always remember mom's song she used to sing, keep it close and never - and I mean never - forget it." He said in a stern voice.
I saluted him, "Yes, sire."
"It's sir." Anthony corrected.
"I know." I winked then left.
Why is she allowed to drive you say? Well, since Ana is too lazy to drive me every time I want to go to McMurry's ranch, he decided to get me a slip that says I'm allowed to drive for 15 miles, but 15 is it because if I get caught outside of the limit then I'm good as gone.
As I was driving, there was this deer running up the road near a bend, but it wasn't running across it was running up the road. I thought that is odd, because deer don't do that. Then as I was turning the bend a large truck came around also, except it didn't turn, instead it T-boned me right off the cliff. I saw it coming but didn't have any time to think as we both tumbled over the cliff. My life flashed past my eyes, and just before it actually hit me I took a deep breath, then impact. It hit me like a thousand bulls ramming into a fragile little doll, then the falling, then everything was whooshing past. I should have died on impact, but I didn't. I felt the hot pain in my side, then we hit the wall then bounced off, every time we hit the ground or the wall I felt the metal deeply imbedded in my side go deeper and deeper into me, and when we finally hit the ground I whispered one last thing before flames engulfed me, the wreckage and the other truck with the man that hit me. "What a way to die."
Author's note: Well thought I should end it there, sorry for the boringness of the chapter but thought it was the best way to start it, so bare with me the first two chapters! But you know what would do me good? A review! So please can I have one from you? Please?
