Chapter 3 -Rules and Fools

Walking into my room was scary for some odd reason. I was on the highest floor. When I first walked into the castle, my mother ran up to me and gave me a hug crying as she kissed my cheeks. My five others siblings were different at approaching me.

The eldest was my brother, Aaron. He smiled at me and shook my hand.

"I am filled with joy to meet my youngest sibling after so many years," he said formally

"It's nice to see you too..." I replied accursedly

We did not get along I could tell that. He had a whip on his side and I knew we just did not like the fact we were brother and sister

Next were my two older sisters Laura and May. They came up and gave me a hug their butterfly companions shortly followed having gems in the middle of their forehead.

"Kaya your back we've missed you so little sister. Why are you back? You need a makeover. How old are you now? How is wither and topaz? Where is the necklace? Oh there it is so glad you still have it I CANT BELIVE YOU'RE HOME!" they spat out without giving me time to answer. The butterflies tickled my nose and I laughed.

'Ok ok get off its nice to see you and I have no idea what's going on," I said happily

My father was glaring at them and the stopped and got back in line. The others just nodded and told me their names. Therefore, my family's names were Aaron Laura May, Liz Beck and JJ. Then my father, Jamadd and my mother Sara.

"Aaron show your sister to her room makes sure she takes a shower and that she is comfortable. She is under you command if she does anything wrong you will be blamed under stood" my father said harshly. Aaron nodded and walked away with me right beside him.

"Why does father treat us so?' I asked

"We might be family but we are royalty and we have to submit to our elders he thinks that formality goes to everyone and no such thing as talking unless it is useful. I will tell you all tomorrow we're almost to you room." he answered never moving his head to look at me as if I was some kind of demon or something.

We reached the end of the hall and there was a door that had my name on it. Engraved on the bottom was a saying. The door was old and rusted. The knob looked like it had not been turned for years. And the sing looked like this

Kaya

Sixth daughter of Jamadd

"Many years many fights many losses lots of hope"

What does the saying mean?' I asked.

'learn not ask" was all Aaron said

My blood boiled as he said that and I went into my room. The room was bigger than my house on Earth. There was enough room to fit... 12 horses and me and still have enough room. The bed was purple lined with gold trimming. The pillows were soft rectangle ones that blended in with the bed. The carpet was brown soft and warm under my feet. The walls were covered with pictures potion recipes musical notes and of me dancing on Pointe in a green dress and my eyes shining bright green. There was my prize-winning smile that only my mother thought was hopeful.

"Only a queen with the best smile is the best queen," I remember her saying to me once. There was a windowsill with a small bed beside it the window was locked shut. I was about to ask 'why is my window shut' but remembered what Aaron told me and decided against it.

"You need dressed for bed then come down to supper in ten minutes we will explain the rules tomorrow."Aaron yelled through the door

I sighed and went to my closest. A small green gem was glowing and al of a sudden the cloths I wanted were on me. I smiled and went to the bathroom my face was a wreck. Mud was all over my hair looked like a rats nest and my teeth were green. I brushed my teeth cleaned my face and combed out my hair. Then I went down for supper. After that, I went to bed.

" Ok rule number 1" my father started out in breakfast." no dirty messes in the castle I do not need the other Fay looking at me like I am a wreck of a king. Second rule live with your head high now low if I always wondered how low I am I would be dead. Third rule..." he went on forever and soon my mind began to drift to the pastures I saw out the window.

There was millions of horses (well, more of a thousand, ok just a lot!) all different colors. Many who always caught my eye. There was one particular that do catch my eye the most. .He was in a different pasture and had a bandanna wrapped over his eyes. It looked like gems were on his neck and then something was covering something on the bottom of his neck.

"The most fatal rule is no going to the dark horse in the separate pasture. He is different and he is from the wolf's side. He is our prisoner and he is deadly to you." I heard my father say to me firmly.

"Yes father." I said bowing my head.' may I be excused?' I posed. Father nodded and I got up," remember to meet your mother and I at 6 o'clock' he called after me. 'Whatever' I thought and I went outside to gaze and the herd.

Some men were coming up the road with a huge burlap sack. 'What could those fools be doing' I wondered. They came up from behind some bushed I hid behind one of the bigger horses whose halter said Courageous. He was a dapple-gray mustang with no gem but I could fell power around him. As the men got closer, I saw them more clearly. There was a skinny one and a fat one. Apparently, the fat one was drunk and the skinny one was smoking crack because they went to the dark horse's pasture.

"You go in front of him and I capture him from behind" the drunk man whispered just a little loud. The other man nodded and went around to the front. he called the horse" hey neck eyes you want me you piece of junk!' he called to it. Looking closer what seemed to be gems were red eyes and the thing covering the bottom of the neck was moving. "If you come here will take the swathe off of your mouth. The horse looked at him with its horrible three eyes then ran to the man. As soon as the swathe was off the burlap sack went over the horses head and over the neck tied at the bottom.

'A truly stupid beast.' they both said. "Truly stupid."

"Well I thing you guys are the fools." I said walking up to them

"Who are you and what are you doing here?" they asked bringing out knives and daggers.

"I'm Kaya and I just happen to see you guys try to kidnap this horse." I posed once more my eyes gleaming with danger.

"We're not kidnapping sablota over here we're killing him so the queen of the wolves will pay us a price for his eyes and well, everything on him." they said.

The horse was suffocating I could see that. Being the own fool of mine I ran and took the burlap sack of the head the mouth on bottom of the neck was clearly not suppose to be there but was cursed on. The eyes went to the men and when one of them stuck his hand out the mouth bit it off. I screamed like a little girl who saw a rat. (I know, very noble.) The man held his arm and cried in pain. Guards ran from everywhere. Seeing blood, I black out.

Chapter one edited.

Thanks to my very amazing friend i got chapter one edited. so here it is.

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 is 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 has 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 passed 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 didn’t, 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 else. So I get the normal shoved in the locker being punched till I'm on the floor and 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. "We’re 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 and 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. Feeling 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 a 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 holding my bandanna out to me nodding back to the people taking pictures. Softly I put the bandanna over the mare’s eyes .Realizing it was still wet I tried to get some more water 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 papers and they are singed. Why should I let her live with you guys so you can kill her? No. She is my horse now, and the most you can do with her is take her home," I said firmly.

"But-"

“Fine, we’ll take her home and that’s it.”

Smiling, I rubbed the mare’s forehead. Seeing a dark spot in the shape of a diamond right where a star would be, and 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 hours of trying names to get her to respond to I gave up, thinking it was hopeless 'Try Topaz,' the same 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 mare’s ear stood straight up and she nickered. 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 nickered. 'Morning your grace!' a bell like voice rang in my head.

"Who is there?” I asked, scared.

'It's me -Topaz! Thanks for your blood from your cut; it healed me right up. It’s nice to meet 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. Wither kicked down his stall and ran out of the barn. A huge wolf came and attacked him.

'Topaz, get Kaya out of here. I will keep them away as long as I can; do not worry I live, my mate' I heard the strong voice I heard at the accident.

'Ok, Wither I will do so. Be safe; call for backup now' Topaz's voice rang in my head; too scared to even think, I jumped on her back as she galloped away. 'We're going to grab Mistress Kathy, and then leave. Your foster family will be fine. They are after you and Kathy. I can’t believe they found you' Topaz snorted out then mumbled

“Wait- is Kathy in trouble?" I asked Topaz. She shook her 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 will answer all questions later- please shut up!' she yelled, but sweetly.

“Ok, " I answered. The whole way to Kathy's house was a rough dodging fight between wolves and us. When we got there, Cornel was jumping up and down, and then ran right by Topaz as we went to Kathy.

'Hop on now Kathy,' Topaz told her, snorting. Kathy hopped behind me and shook with fear. I put my bandanna over her eyes and she calmed down. After a while, Kathy fell asleep. Soon after so did I
