Chapter one Finished

OK Chapter one is done!!!

Chapter 1

Waking up I looked outside and smiled it was raining. Every year it rained and every year it was green. I loved to go outside and feel the rain fall onto my perfect skin. My hair was a dark black and my eyes are a forever shining green. I don't remember any of my past other than a bright green light and a dead horse... I know weird.

I got out of bed and got dressed into my black and green clothes. That was all I ever wore and ever liked(well those plus jeans). Mother says that it brings out the color of my eyes(like I need that)plus it makes me 'blend in' at school more. I have one friend who is a freak she has the worst when it comes to fear I'm the only one who has ever stopped her from having a heart attack. her name is Kathy. She ahs auburn hair and blue eyes she wears the same clothes as me and is always at my side. School to me is useless I already know what's there and what's not. I don't need to go but foster mother doesn't care enough to notice my report cards or anything.

I went out to the stalls and passes my dressage horse Wither's Stolen Gems or Wither. He was a Trakehner horse of red roan color He loved to show off even though I dint but I did for him. Wither did everything except rodeo.

Going to school I knew what was in every locker who everybody was and everybody's grades in school. It was easy if you stopped blabbing about yourself and listened to everybody's else's. So I get the normal shoved in the locker being punched till I'm on the floor. being told what to do . Every year I've been the non talker. Some people say I'm mute others Think I don't know how to talk . Really all I do is write.

Getting on the bus I sat by Kathy and she grabbed my arm when she saw that I had the bandana she loosened up and I smiled "were going to be fine. " I whispered to her and she smiled. As the bus went onto a highway I saw a drunk driver crashing to us . The bus lurched to a stop glass shattered everywhere.

" Everybody stay still and stay in the bus till we can consider it safe to go outside!' Mrs. Jensen yelled to the kids on the bus.

I grabbed Kathy and pulled her close whispering softly to her . Seeing we hit the car and since Kathy could get a clear view I grabbed my bandanna and wrapped it around her eyes felling it was damp I tried to wring some of it out then tied it behind her head. After it was ok to get off the bus all the students slowly got off Kathy and I were last. As I lead her off I saw the horse trailer. There was animal inside but it sounded weak. 'you have to help her' a voice roared in my head. Turning to Kathy I sat her down.

" Don't move or take the bandanna off till your ok and not going to freak out hear that horse?' I asked her. She nodded. " I have to help it ok before anyone else" I whispered. She nodded and sat down in a safe spot.

I ran to the trailer and opened the back door with Mrs. Jensen calling after me "Kaya come back!"

The mare was more of a skeleton than a horse. Her body was small and cut with scars all over. Her eyes were bright topaz that matched her blue roan coat. Her eyes looked like gems shining in the dark in a sad way. Looking at the man who owned the mare I felt anger run through my veins and deep down in my heart. It was like something snapped in me.

Softly I haltered the mare and slowly walked her out. In the sun she was worse her hooves were long like she never seen a Ferrier. Her body had no muscle. Looking behind me I saw Kathy hold my bandanna to me nodding back to the people taking pictures. Softly I put the bandanna over the mares eyes realizing it was still wet I tried to get some more out then put it back on the mare. Whispering softly to her I took her to some grass and let her eat while I dealt with the police.

" We need to take the mare' One of the men said firmly.

' Why should I let her go I found her that way. Her old owner gave me the ownership paper and they are singed. Why should I let her live with you guys so you can kill her. No she is my horse now the most you can do with her is take her home." I said firmly.

"but-"

" Fine well take her home and that its"

Smiling I rubbed the mares forehead seeing a dark spot in the shape of a diamond right where a star would be ignoring it. I rubbed her neck and loaded her into the better trailer and stayed with her bringing Kathy home with me.

After spending hours of trying to get her to respond to a name I gave up. Kathy went home and took a nap while I stayed with the mare. After spending hours of trying to get her to respond to a name I gave up. Kathy went home and took a nap while I stayed with the mare. After hours of trying names to get her to respond to I gave up thinking it was hopeless 'Try Topaz' The same strong male voice from the accident whispered in my mind. Well even though I wasn't a normal listen-to-the-voice-in-my-head type of person I tried it out.

"Topaz you ok how are you Topaz?' I asked her. the mares small thin ears stood straight up and she nickered a soft bell like one. Topaz a pretty name for a lovely horse(after she was groomed she was really pretty even though she looked fragile. smiling I petted her forehead and then laid right by her stall and fell asleep

Waking up I saw a blue roan horse's face in mine. Air blew past my face and I jumped the horse's head went up and she nickered 'Morning your grace!' a clear sharp bell like voice rang in my head.

"W-who is there?"I asked scared.

'It's me Topaz! thanks for your blood from your cut it healed me right up its nice to me my rightful companion again. I thought I would never see you again. My have you grown. where is Wither? I haven't seen him for ages either.!' Topaz was neighing snorting prancing nickering and everything else she could to keep my attention.

"You can talk?' I asked breathing fast. But before she could answer someone screamed in the house. 'oh no' topaz 's voice gasped. Wither kicked down his stall and ran out of the barn a huge wolf that had claws the size of a cats and body bigger than the horses charged in and attacked him. The rider fowled. Her hair was black and she had sharp red eyes in her hand was a spear glowing blue. With stood up and knocked out the wolf; however more were coming. Wither looked at topaz then me then back at the charging pack.

'Topaz get Kaya out of here. I will keep them away as long as I can don't worry My sweet I'll be fine' The male's voice ordered. worry was at the end of his words

"Wither?' I question then WHOOSH! I was off.

'ok Wither I will do be safe call for back up now' Topaz's voice rang in my head to scared to even think I jumped on her back as she galloped. 'We're going to grab mistress Kathy and then leave. your foster family will be fine. They're after you and Kathy. I cant believe they found you' Topaz snorted out then mumbled

" Wait is Kathy in trouble?" I asked Topaz. She shook her small head' She'll be fine as long as her dog companion is always by her 'she replied.

" Wait cornel is her companion?" I asked confused now.

'Not now but yes I'll answer all questions later please shut up!' she yelled but sweetly.

" ok " I answered. the whole way to Kathy's house was rough dodging fight between us and wolves. Every corner there was another pack of wolves or a herd of dark horses. Topaz always was quick but just barely. "We're almost to Kathy's" I yelled seeing the familiar beware of dog sign. Cornel was Kathy's guard dog who was very protective.

When we arrived at the road leading to the porch cornel was jumping up barking fiercely 'Kathy Kathy help!' I heard a young barky rough males voice. cornel was hurrying back and forth till topaz ran. Then he ran right by Topaz as we went to Kathy's front door right under her window.

Kathy looked out and screamed." look behind you Kaya!' she yelled looking behind wolves were coming and fast wither was ahead charging to me. "Jump" I yelled to her

'Hop on now Kathy' Topaz told her snorting. Kathy hoped behind me and shook with fear. Looking around I saw that I had my bandana. I put my bandanna over her eyes and she calmed down. after a while Kathy fell asleep. Wither was right beside us slowly as Topaz ran I moved Kathy in from of me and had her secure I jumped on wither . The steady beats of the hooves and the war behind us I was in and out of sleep.

♦ ♦ ♦ ♦

Crack! I jumped up and saw Kathy had started a fire her hair was softer and as I looked at cornel he was different. his coat was thicker and on the middle of his forehead was a ruby shining.

Topaz and wither were sleeping side by side by the fire and Kathy was shivering until cornel sat by her. her ears were more pointed and he skin more clear.

"Kathy" I whispered not to wake the others

"yes"

" what's going on. what's the truth?"

"We are all part of the Gemth , a world, and the only humans like things here are faeries and fairies" Kathy told quickly and I looked at her like she was mad then I saw her wings.
