Objection123: I don't own anything in this and I never will

XOXOXOXOX

Megan's POV

One Year Earlier

I'm dreaming, right? I did not just do this. I'll admit it, I'm crazy, but this was actually what I was planning so technically it doesn't make me insane.

Stupid Kurain elders, thinking they can boss me around like that! "Just put up with it, you'll forget about your dream about becoming a lawyer!" I hate them! Why couldn't they just except I wanted to (and still want to) be a lawyer! I mean whenever I asked why I couldn't they would just say "Mystic Maya" and walk off like nothing happened!

The water beneath me roared like lions and swallowed every rock in sight. The rain felt like bullets against my skin and the wind combined with the speed I was falling at made it feel like someone was throwing axes at me from under water.

Man, this hurts! I turned from my diving position into a less painful cannonball position.

My thoughts drifted off to how the elders treated me until they were cut short when my body broke through the surface of the water. Salty water flooded into my mouth as I fell to the bottom of the river. Okay what am I lying on?

"!"

Underneath me was a dead body. I swam up to get some air only to be pulled back under - the body wasn't dead! I struggled to get some air and pry this weird person's hand away from my ankle.

"Stop! I can help you" The person croaked. How is he/she speaking! We're under water for crying out loud!

I finally made it up to the air! Sweet air! I let what seemed like all the water in Eagle river flow out of my mouth to escape the salty taste. I pulled him/her up to the surface.

"How can you help me?" I said between coughs. I felt like I was going to scream when I saw their face. The person's face was scratched and bruised and just plain horrible! What happened to him/her?

"Don't talk just follow" The creature pulled me under and tied me down with a piece of seaweed.

"What on earth are you doing!" I screamed. Wait. How am I talking? I kicked the creature with my leg that the creature was trying to tie down and knocked the thing away. I wriggled my body free and swam upwards as the creature swam away. Well that was completely pointless! It was only then that I realised how far I was from the bridge, I couldn't even see it! Suddenly, there was a loud rumbling noise. I nervously turned, fearing that it would be what I thought it was, but it was what I thought it was. A waterfall. How cliché. Voices in my head drowned out the sound of the waterfall, saying stuff like "it's too late to turn back now" and "You HAVE to turn around RIGHT NOW!" And suddenly I knew what I had to do…

"I have to get out of here"

I furiously pushed the water forwards, hoping it would give me enough time to think but I kept moving forward. Stupid gravity! Suddenly a sharp brown thing whacked me in the face. I grabbed it not caring what it was or where it had been, I just needed to move. The thing was a tree, a very weak tree. The branch I was holding snapped under my weight as I grabbed another branch and started to climb. The water rose and the rain fell harder making the tree incredibly slippery. I stumbled across one of the long branches and jumped off the tree onto the ground.

I was soaking wet and I needed to find shelter. I walked across the layer of bedrock absentmindedly and began to hum a song as if nothing had happened. After a few hours of walking I found a small cave. It was damp and covered in fungi and algae but…it would have to do.

(Apollo's POV)

"I made furniture out of rocks and caught fish for food" She said, glancing at the dead fish lying in front of us. "Every day I would try to climb up the ledge but I would always fall down again and injure myself so I've been here for the past year" I could have sworn I was crying from the story.

"You were always bad at P.E" I chuckled as she hit my arm lightly.

"Please don't remind me" she shuddered

"And I was good at it" I thought. A few seconds later an idea flew into my head.

"Are you planning on staying here?" I asked.

"Are you planning on keeping that haircut?" She flicked my spikes and I pouted.

"Not the point" I said quickly "Do you remember how I was good at P.E?"

"Yes because you are SOOOOOOO special" She said sarcastically.

"As I was saying" I mumbled "Maybe I could help you get back up"

"Really?" She beamed at the thought of finally getting back to civilization.

"Sure, anything for a friend"

Objection123: FINALLY! I finally finished this chapter! WOOP!

Megan: …Hm…I guess it's okay….hey! I was never bad at sport!

Apollo: Yes you were

Megan: *grumble* *grumble* *grumble*

Objection123: I just realised that I never told you what Megan looks like! She has dark brown hair in a similar hairstyle to Dahlia's, she wears a red t-shirt, a grey jumper, a pair of jeans, red sneakers and a silver pendant with a ruby in the middle that will have something to do with the story eventually. She has black eyes like most of the characters and always wears a red ribbon around her neck like people in the olden days who couldn't afford jewellery wore. Now her personality: she is very smart and funny, She is really bubbly like Maya and is always confident unless under pressure, she is afraid to speak up in front of groups of more than three or four (just like me!), she is pretty slow when it comes to running (also like me) and wants to be a lawyer like Apollo (she met him in law school). Now That I cleared that up…
