Red Sky
Disclaimer: I sure wish I owned it.
Crimson, you see it, you feel it. The sky turned crimson and so did the sun. You stare and let your head drop. It's all your fault. You did it, you did it. Once again the story chants.
You wake up after a good sleep. Very little light is in the room. You look around and see no one or Fern's little snores. You pull the covers off and go to the window, pulling the curtains back you see the red sky, it is just sunrise and you see the farm. You didn't see it before when you had gotten to the room with Fern and Romanie. You shake your head out of confusion and keep the curtains open so you can look around. All you see is a pair of cloths on the ground. You smile to yourself and get dressed, you don't look good in it but you don't really care. You examine yourself in the mirror and smile again.
It was a tunic with a cloth wrapped around your waist with a piece of rope to keep it up, and some pants that clung to your knee. It's comfortable and the colors look good with the piece of cloth blue, the rope red, the tunic white, and the pants green. You smile and slip out the room. Anxious to look for everyone else you find your way back to the room with the fire, it is quite cold but you see no one. You become confused and find the front door and you step out of the house. Your feet are bare and the fresh morning dew cools your feet, you shiver from the coldness and spot a few cows. You see three people at the cows and you run over.
With dew flying behind you and your body warming up from the heated run, as you get closer you notice it is Fern, Romanie, and someone else who is at the cow. You slow as you get closer and wave as Fern spots you. "Hey! Lunar, your awake!" Fern shouted waving her arm at you. You become confused but suddenly remember you had given yourself that name in till you remembered your real one. You waved back again and when you got up to them you noticed Romanie smile.
"It's a good thing you're awake, Lunar. I was just going into town to deliver some milk. I was going to ask you if you wanted to come with." Romanie asked then she turned and nodded towards the other person there. "This is Den. She'll be coming with us too. But Fern will stay here." Romanie continued and she looked back at you. You nod and wave at Den who doesn't wave back. You frown then look back at Romanie. Romanie nods. "Well let's go. Since we're all here we might as well go." She said and she walked back to the house, with Den following her heels. You turned around and followed them with Fern on your heels.
When you arrived back at the house you noticed a carriage with two horses carrying it. You look oddly at the horses then you anxiously walk up and pat them on their nose. Romanie taps you on the shoulder and tells you to get into the carriage with the milk while Den rode up front with her. You nod and climb into the carriage and notice all the bottles of milk you carefully find a place to sit not braking the glasses. You settle in and watch as Romanie and Den climb into the driver seat. You watch as Romanie clasps a rope in front of her and snaps it soon the horses started walking. You look out the carriage and notice Fern waving good-bye you wave back. Soon, when you couldn't see Fern anymore, you let your arm drop and look back forward at the road. The road is long and they were going under a sign that said "Romanien Farm" you don't really understand what it means, but you just nod knowing it was a farm. You look back up the road when you passed under the sign.
Up ahead wasn't much, there was still more road and you sighed, hoping for some excitement. Then for some reason you notice a fence cutting you off from the rest of the road except for one intersection that didn't have a dirt path. You sneak up to the front and look out at the fence you notice that Romanie looks worried. Romanie noticed you. "I don't like this. We have to go through bad country now. Make sure you keep those bottles safe, Lunar. Den, get in back with Lunar, we need to keep the milk safe." She continued and pulled on the reigns making the horses turn to the intersection.
You scoot over to the end of the carriage looking around, you see nothing, but once you passed through the intersection opening you see a gate close behind you. You yelp and fall back, being caught by Den. "Don't worry, Lunar. Thief's tend to not want anyone disturb them when they're going to mob someone." Den said quietly and she sat her self next to you looking out of the opening of the carriage. You shiver hopping you'd be all right, but your also scared for the others. You look around checking on the bottles when the carriage came to a stop.
Romanie turned her head and looked at you. "Take the reigns. I need to fend off the thief's with Den." She said clearly, you nod and scoot up to the front. Once you sat yourself on the driver seat you grab the reigns and try your best to imitate Romanie. You snap the reigns and the carriage lurches; you smile because you got it going. The horses snorted and pulled back walking away. You look up and see four masked people coming up on horses.
Two people were on one horse as you noticed the second one that rode in the back had a bow and arrows; the arrows were on fire at the tip. You shiver and snap the reigns hopping to get away. The thief's groan and pull up behind the carriage, you snap the reigns again and the horses quicken. You listen as Romanie and Den shot arrows back at the men. You snap the reigns again and the horses quicken to their fastest pace.
You look around you and see a horse coming up to him, they were going to try and kill the driver. You pull on the reigns towards the right and the horses cut the thief's off from their plan. You smile again and snap the reigns quickening again as the horses started to slow. You watch as the crimson sun rises higher and shine down on anther thief trying to stop the carriage. You watch as the sun shines on the masked figure and it pulls back screaming. You glance back and watch as the figure continued to scream then vanish in a puff of smoke. You become confused as the rest of the thief's blow up in a puff of smoke. You only guess that they hate the sun and you carry on. But this time you slow down pulling on the reigns slightly telling the horses to slow down.
You glance over your shoulder and notice Romanie and Den climbing back up to you. Romanie smiles and pats you on your shoulder whispering in your ear, "good job." And Den just jumped in next to you and took the reigns from you. You smile from your accomplishment and you scoot yourself into the back as Romanie jumped onto the driver's seat next to Den and let her drive. You rub your eyes as the sun makes an imprint on your sight and you look back up, ignoring the little blue sun imprint. You notice town up ahead.
Den pulled the carriage up to the entrance that was a wide road; you jump out of the carriage and look around. Nobody is around and you look at Romanie for an explanation, Romanie smiles and points at the sun. "Its still pretty early." She said then she took the reigns and carefully walked the horses into town. You ignore the carriage and don't climb back in; instead you follow behind it looking at the small houses and the grass covered in dew. You foot turns cold again but again you ignore it and continue on looking around and seeing some chickens and a river nearby heading off somewhere. Then the carriage stopped you stopped along with it and walk up to Romanie.
"We can leave the carriage here. I'll show you around town, Lunar." Romanie said smiling and gesturing for you to follow. You nod and follow Romanie deeper into town. You observe your surroundings and see trees and wooden benches you also see a well nearby. You keep looking around, trying hard not to gape, and then you heard a little laugh. You spin around and notice two children about the same height as Fern. You look at them strangely, which somehow made the children laugh. You look at Romanie who smiles. You become even more confused and you looked around noticing some windows being opened and people looking out. You spin around again as some more kids came and some adults came out and stretched sitting on a wooden bench nearby. You spin around in a circle watching as the town started to wake.
Romanie smiles and taps you on the shoulder. "Come, I'll show you a place I think you'll like." She said turning around and walking off. You nod and follow Romanie, but you glance over for a minute and notice some of the children following you, you wave and continued on. After awhile you arrive at what looked like a store; you enter in it with Romanie. When you enter you quickly looked around observing your surroundings. You notice a rocking chair and a cat drinking milk on the ground. You become confused a little not really remembering what a cat was. Romanie gestures over to the rocking chair and she walks over settling onto the chair. You walk over and settle yourself onto the ground like it was story time. Some children run in and sit around you or layed on your lap, you smile and look at Romanie who smiles also.
Then Romanie took out the same book she was reading to you last night, you become excited and lean forward. Romanie smiles at your anxiousness and she opens book to the same page where they left off. You lean closer willing his ears to listen. Romanie laughs and licked her lips getting ready to read. You become more exited that your head pained. You rub it for a moment wondering why it hurt. Then Romanie started to read.
You like? I wasn't sure. I plan on making the story today right after this. And I will. So just wait, of course I would put it in well not in the same chapter because I've written so much already. Well I wish you enjoyed it, please review!
