1. The beginning

Pyrophobia

It was an usual day in Edinburgh, cars and people filling the streets as they travel from their homes to work or schools, young children skipping with their parents merrily to school or nursery, holding tightly onto their mom or dad's hand as they inched towards the road, then there was Khloe McCain running like a frightened jack rabbit for her bus. As I said, normal day. 'For god's sake, this is the millionth time that I've missed that god-damn bus' Khloe thought to herself as she watched her bus zoom away from her stop and into the distance. Khloe was a tall, thin girl although she wasn't very good at running as most tall girls were. She had long, red hair with orange tips which gave the impression of a flame. She had ice-blue eyes and her face was splattered with freckles here, there and everywhere. Since it was a school day, Khloe was wearing a white school blouse with a black and green tie, a school skirt which reached down to her knees, black tights and black vans. Her hair was tied up in it's usual ponytail with a white bow ribbon. As Khloe was waiting on her bus, she saw a bright light out of the corner of her eye. As she turned around, she noticed that the light was emminating from somewhere deep in a woodland park just across the road. Allowing her curiousity to get the better of her- which was a bad habit for Khloe, since her curiousity usually led her to trouble- Khloe quickly made her way across the road and into the woodland. 'This had better no be some wild goose chase!' Khloe mumbled to herself as she fought her way through tree branches and bushes in her mission to find out what was causing that strange light. As she drew closer, Khloe noticed that the light swayed gently side to side, just like a flame, she could also hear crackling and the popping of sparks, yet she could not smell any smoke no matter how close she got. 'What if it's a forest fire? Should I call for help? The fire brigade? Then what should I do? Run?' These were the questions that circled her mind like a group of sharks as she finally brushed away the last tree branches to see what was causing the mysterious light. Before she could take in what she was seeing, someone or something hit Khloe on the back of the head, causing her to fall over onto the ground unconscious.
