OMG. I am so sorry I haven't up-dated before now. I was always interrupted. Thanks to all the people who have read my story, but you guys aren't reviewing. I need reviews! Give me ideas! Please. Anyway, enjoy this next chapter.
Chapter 2
I stared at the map in my hands. It's a good thing Australia had maps of the world all over the place. "Okay." I said aloud as I tried to straighten the map out in the wind.(Tip: don't read and fly at the same time. Especially if you're over water.) "So Australia is here and Antarctica is…. THERE?" I pushed my short, brown hair out of my face and change turned around, heading south. "This better not be cold."
So focused on the map, I hadn't realised the flock of birds behind me. BAM. For a second, I forgot to flap my wings. I felt myself falling. I desperately tried to flap me wings again, but it was too late.
Water splashed into my face and went to places I did think water could go. Desperately trying to get some air, I tried to swim to the surface.
Unfortunately, the 'school' hadn't actually taught us how to swim. The only thing they did teach us was how to fly, and how to fight. My vision started to blur from lack of oxygen. The last thing I saw before I blacked out was a brown blur sitting on the surface of the water.
Dream:
I walked over to the mirror on the back of my bedroom door. It showed me a little girl with long red hair and pale skin. She looked like she was about 10 years old. She wore a pair of pink pyjamas. The girl's nose scrunched up as she looked down at it."Pink" I said. "Yuk." Just as I spoke the words, the girl in the mirror mimicked.
I looked around at the small, purple room. There were clothes on the floor everywhere. All frilly and girly. Just standing there was making me want to barf.
"Sonya?" called a voice from outside my door. A woman that looked like an older version of the girl in the mirror poked her head round the door. "You're awake. Quickly change out of your pyjamas and come have some breakfast, okay?" With that, she left the room.
I stood in the same spot for a while. "What's happening?" I asked myself.
"Wake up sweet heart" Said a gruff voice. I looked everywhere but could find the source. The voice echoed around the room. "Come on. Wake up." The room around me started to spin and change.
End dream
I sat up, coughing and spewing up water. I only just felt someone's hand on my back, trying to comfort me. "It's alright darlin'. You're safe now."
I lay back onto the ground and gathered my surroundings. Above me was a man who looked like he was from an old pirate movie. His clothes were tattered and he looked like he hadn't had a shower for a couple of months (and my nose was burning from the smell). It was only then that I noticed his hand on my back, yet he didn't seem to notice my wings. I jumped back in alarm.
The man stood up with his hands out in front of him. "It's alright darlin'. Listen, we saw you in the water and thought we batter help you get to safety." His eyes were wide as he tried to think what to say next. "We only want to help." Then his expression changed. His whole face seemed to drop, his eyes staring accusingly at me. "What's a young girl like you, doing out in the middle of the ocean, anyway? And in your pyjamas?"
I looked down. I was no longer in my black tracksuit pants and dark green hoodie. Instead, I was wearing exactly what the girl in my dream was wearing. "What the…!" I run to the edge of the boat and jumped off, desperately trying to find my wings and fly. As soon as I hit the air, I felt myself shake violently, and then I felt my wings spread wide, lifting me higher into the sky. The cries of shock from the boat echoed across the water.
As I flew across the sky, I looked back down at what I was wearing. Again, they had changed, back to my tracksuit pants and hoodie. I let out a sigh of relief. What happened back there? Birds flying above me reminded me of the bird kids. They had in reports about how they had developed different techniques. Could I also be evolving?
As soon as I saw land, I stopped on an empty beach to check out my 'new ability'. As I felt myself touch the sand, I thought of one of the man I saw when I woke up. I walked over to the water and looked at my new reflection. There, staring back at me was the man I saw on the boat.
"Well, this can come in handy." I said to myself. Talking to yourself doesn't mean I'm insane… right?
There's your chapter. Once again short and sweet, haha. Please review and give me ideas! I'm not going to say when the next chapter will be out but it will (hopefully) be soon.
Bye bye
