Lost And Found
A/N I was listening to the song Lost and Found from Alice Upside Down which I got on DVD yesterday and it made me want to write another fic. It's about helping a friend so I hope people like.
It was a sunny day in Earth and in Calvert County, Izz was walking through the forest.
But inside the Psammead was hiding great sadness. It would be his twenty first birthday in a few weeks but he wasn't happy about it.
But only his younger sister Elisa knew why he felt sad on his birthday but hadn't told his human friends. She'd kept it for twenty years but would have to tell it seeing Leah making a birthday cake.
"What do you mean he wants to forget his birthday?
I don't understand Elisa.
Why would he do it?" Leah asked her Psammead friend.
She was about to answer that morning but heard the front door open as Izz came into the house.
"Quick hide it!" Elisa hissed as her friend put the cake away.
But Izz had heard that and sighed coming into the kitchen in his black hooded jacket he normally wore.
"I know what you're trying to do but....... I don't want to celebrate my birthday, okay?
I know you're trying to be good friends.
I've got to go, okay?" Izz told her going upstairs.
He had tears in his snail like eyes but had held them in but let them out as he went into his and Carley's room.
He then climbed onto his bed and pulled out a picture from under his pillow.
It was of him, Elisa and their parents.
He then put the ear buds in his bat like ears and listened to music as he fell asleep.
Elisa heard crying later that night and left her room. She had a feeling that Izz was sleep walking because he was worried about his birthday and missing their parents but went to find him before he hurt himself.
She then saw him in the living room and walked in.
"Izz you okay?
You're sleepwalking, aren't you?
You have to wake up before you hurt yourself or break something.
Leah's making pancakes." she said as Izz woke up.
"I-I'm sorry for scaring you.
I'm just sad and was dreaming." he answered.
"About what?" she asked him.
"About...... when we were a family." he replied sadly as he lay on the couch.
She watched as he fell back asleep but saw bite marks on his furry fingers.
"He must be really sad about what happened to our parents on his thirteenth birthday.
He only bites his fingers when he's really upset.
Maybe I should tell them but I should wait." Elisa thought as she put a blanket over her brother's sleeping body and went upstairs.
She hoped he'd be okay.......
