I run until I am deep into the forest, and that is when I climb a tree. I go as far as I can, which, I must say so myself, is pretty impressive. I love the feeling of wind in my hair, the smell of the trees and the sound of the fire crackling in the distance. Tonight, I am going to the town. I decide. I start jumping from tree to tree in haste of finally seeing the town. I am finally on the outskirts of the forest, so I jump down from the tree and start to run towards the light. I am there in seconds, and I finally see what I have been missing out on. There are shops open and it is ten 'o' clock. I head to the nearest one. I push the door open, and soft music greets my ears. I step inside and close the door.
"Hello! How can I help you?" A girl no older than myself asks me.
"What do you sell here?" I ask sounding incredibly stupid.
"Oh, phones, IPods and other gadgets like that!" She says very cheerily.
"IPod?" I say back
"Yeah, it plays music." She says in the same cheery voice.
"How much?" I ask her.
"The touch 2nd hand is twenty dollars." She tells me.
"I'll take it." I have been wanting to go out into the town for ages now, and I know that mother always has money in her room, apparently it reminders her of her life before being a pixie. I hand the girl the money at the same time as she hands me the IPod.
"Will you want some earphones? They go in your ears, and the music goes throw them so no one else can hear it!" She tells me.
"Ok. How much?" I ask.
"three dollars." She says, I hand her the money. She gives me the ear phones. She shows me how to operate the IPod, and how to connect the earphones. I leave the shop and start playing music using my new headphones. I start to wonder the streets aimlessly until I see the sun beginning to rise. I start to walk back to the forest when a wolf jumps out of the shadows. I have heard of weres but never have I met one. My father tells me that they are vicious, but cannot kills us without iron. This wolf clearly realised that I was a pixie. I grab him as he lunges and throw him across the clearing so that he lands against a tree. I start to race home, and daddy's guards meet me outside the house. I see their lips moving but don't hear their voices. I pull my earphones out of my ears and soon hear them talking
"Your mother and father are worried about you, Zara." One of them says.
"Well, I'm 'ere now." I say as I walk throw the doors.
"Zara! Where were you? I was worried sick!" My father yells
"Oh, hello to you too."
"ZARA!" He practically screams
"Ok man! Take a chill pill dad! I was in the town."
"What's that on your hands?" He says sounding worried
"Oh look, the mean little doggy gave me some of it's fur." I say looking down at my hands
"What dog?"
"The werewolf." I say causally. I cannot be bothered to listen to his little 'speech', so I run upstairs. Sure he could beat me running up them, but he knows when I need to be on my own. He's cool like that. but it stop him running up the stirs five minutes later when i was in my pj's.
"Their here!" He tells me
"Who?" I ask
"The other courts!"
"Shit! I'm in my nightie!" I scream.
"Shut up!" Then I heard the wolf howling outside.
