Random person: Who's there?
Me: Me!
Random confused person: Me who?
Me: Me, who owns Maximum Ride and the Hunger games! :3
Random person: Yeah right, like you could actually own them.
Me: *Runs to corner and sobs* I know I know…
I opened one of my eyes; I could see light peeking through the brown curtains that were still hanging over the window.
"Good morning sleepy head," My mom smiled at me.
"Good morning," I half smiled at her, and walked over to my dresser to get dressed.
"Will you get the baby up for me?"
I nodded, "Sure Mom."
I walked over to my mom's bed and lifted up the covers under them I saw my two year old sister Avery curled up in a ball.
"Come on Ave, time to get up."
She slowly opened her eyes, and then yawned, "Hello…" She whispered.
I bent down and picked her up, "Hello."
She leaned in and wrapped her arms around my neck and rested her head on my shoulder, I sighed and brought her over to the table.
"Now what would you like for breakfast?" My mom asked as she took Avery from me.
"I'm not that hungry, I think I might go out… for a walk," I winked at my mom and she knew what I meant.
But what she didn't know is that I wanted to see if I would run into that boy again, the boy with wings that I had met that night.
"Ok then, but be back by lunch, you have to feed the cows." My mom winked back.
I nodded, and then walked to the door, "I want to go with you," Rosie said as she grabbed my arm.
I hesitated, "Um Rosie I don't think – "
"Rosie, you have to stay here and do you're chores. Go ahead Dessity," My mom said from the kitchen.
I sighed with relief, if my little sister Rosie found out about my um… "Talent" she would be blabbering about it all over town, and I would eventually get sent to the capitol to be tested on, again.
I pushed the door open, everything looked so different when the sun was shining on it, and the flowers were releasing their perfumes…
I turned around and started to run down the road that eventually came to the electric fences that surrounded my district. The only reason I get through them is because I can fly over.
Once I got to the fences I leaped into the air and smiled as my wings burst open, and then suddenly… I was in the woods. I smiled and pushed down my wings with all my might. I laughed as I rose further and further into the air, but as fast as I had gone up, I shot down like a bullet. I could hear an airship coming my way, and I didn't want to take a chance on getting caught.
As soon as I hit the ground I ducked under a bush, the first thing I noticed when I was under it was that it had thorns on it. I squeezed my eyes shut and tried not to think about the thorns that were poking my arms and legs.
I think the airship is gone now… I thought as I slowly crept out of the bush.
Once I was out I looked around to make sure the airship was truly gone. And then I shot back up into the air.
"It's so peaceful up here, with the sun shining and the – oof!" I started to fall.
I immediately tried to flap my wings to fly up again, but my wings were as stiff as rock. I guess you can say that I started to panic…
"Help!" I screamed. The ground was getting closer, I closed my eyes, waiting to hit the ground. But I never did.
I opened one of my eyes, I was hovering five feet over the ground, and I wasn't even flapping my wings.
"What – "
"Are you ok?" I heard someone ask.
"What – " I said again as I looked up.
I gasped, I could see curly hair, dark brown eyes, and tan skin.
"Who – "
The boy's face reddened, "I – I'm sorry for running into you – I uh… didn't see you."
I opened my mouth to say something, but I didn't know what to say.
"Here, let me put you down," The boy said as he gently set me down.
"Who… are you?" I asked.
The boy scratched his neck, "I'm James."
I looked over James shoulder to see his wings, but he had them tucked in.
He probably didn't know that I had seen him flying just last night. I quietly unfurled my wings and looked him in the eyes, he looked surprised.
"How – "Now it was his turn to be flabbergasted.
I smiled, "Let's skip the "how" part, and – "
James interrupted me, "What's your name?"
I smiled, "Dessity, Dessity Clark."
Yay! Sorry if this is horrible, I didn't really edit, but OH WELL. Chapter 3 coming soon. (Shout out to Reflections of Twilight! I LOVE THE NAME Rosalyn!)
