Three Things


      Clara was a lonely farm girl who had no family. Her patents and brother had died long before she became an adult. She had no friends for she worked day in and day out, diligently on her farm. She longed for the touch of another human every time she tended to the animals and would occasionally cry herself to sleep.
      One day, on her twenty fifth birthday, a man came to her village. He then approached her farm, Clara looked at him and was taken back by his rich flamboyant clothes. His face had such perfect features and angles that it messed with her mind. He was clean too, which amazed her for she had not seen such a cleanness to anyone in her life!
      "Might you be farmer Clara Workload?" He asked.
      "Yes!" She said startled then got hold of herself and remembered to curtsy. "I am she."
      "Well I am to take you on to Heaven." He said.
      "But I am not dead! I can't die for whatever will come if the animals in my care?" She asked shocked and disturbed at his words. He let out a playful laugh.
      "I fear you misunderstand! I am here to take you to Heaven for only a day and there you can take three things from there. And only three things."
      With that he let a hand on her shoulder and took her away to Heaven.When there were there he disappeared, leaving her to wonder on her own. The place was in all ways beautiful and the rode that she stood on was made if the purest hold Clara ever laid eyes on! She was taken back by the sight and wondered if she was dreaming as she walked down it.
      Soon she spotted a woman plowing the most cleanest field she had ever seen and the woman was also just as clean. It was as if she was not even working. Her hair was golden and her grey eyes showed no tiredness. Soon Clara found that the woman at a closer look seemed familiar and soon she knew why.
      "Mother?" She asked as she looked back and nodded and followed her onwards.
      They then came across a crowd and Clara's eyes dropped on a boy that looked just like her, however he, just like her mother was impeccably clean. She turned to her mother.
      "Who is that?" She asked pointing at him.
      "That is Carl, your twin that died before either of you were born." She explained as Carl walked up to  them. Then after their introduction the three of them went on.
      "Mother, where is father?" She asked.
      "I will take you to him." Her mother told her. She took them to a blacksmith's workshop where a muscular man sat hammering away at a sword. He looked a lot like Clara and Carl but his jawline was wider and strong. He looked up and, as if he already knew what was going on he followed them in silence.
      They then came across a rose garden on the way home. The leaves on all were so alive and vivid and emerald green and the red roses were like crimson cherries. She was so taken back by the whole garden that she was amazed that such a beautiful garden could exist! When she looked close she quickly noticed that the bush and the leaves had no thorn or spike.
      Knowing that the rest of the village would not believe that here eyes laid eyes on such a sight she picked one. She then slid it in her hair and they then came before the gates to the world of the  living. Then the doors opened. Clara felt a buzz of excitement knowing that she was not going to be alone any more and that she had her family back.
      When she stepped through she felt her hair drop and when she raised her fingers to the rose she could feel that it was turning into something. When she looked down to see what it was, to her horror she spotted that it was dust! Then when she looked back she spotted that her mother, her father, and her brother was missing!
      Why? Why are they gone? They were eight behind me so how can they be gone? Did that man trick me? She asked herself. No. It was that you had taken four things when you should have taken only three.

Scar Parents Fight Part Three

  Hunter’s Defence  Scar opened her eyes. She then walked down the stairs. She slowly took out her homework, just to take her mind off the day before she started doing it. She started with her maths to fode her mind to focus. She then moved onto literacy. After she had done both her mind felt sharp and clear of all of the upset. She looked up, it was half past seven. She then took a slice of bread. She then put it in the toaster and pulled out a tin of beans. Half of them had already been eaten the day feforeshe then put it in the bowl and then put it in the microwave for a minute. As she waited she picked up a newspaper. Three women arrested. They claimed to be witches yet none have any drugs in their system. They were arrested  for killing four children. When asked why they claimed  it was to obtain power. So they've been arrested. Good! She heard the beeping and soon put the beans on the plate then took the toast out and soon took out a fork. After ripping the toast in half she

The Nine Dragons The Serpent Dragon Part Three

  The Boa Army Loc was working hard in the field. It was getting to evening time. She had found that she liked working there as a farmer. There was just something so satisfying in doing hard work and made the food taste better and she slept better too. She could see herself doing this for the rest of her life however long that would be, yet she knew that she could not. Regardless of how much she liked the village and the people there. She had noticed that the people there looked almost like the people in her world just without any pupils and they were weaker too. She also noticed that despite this, they were all hard working and nothing was eaten until they had done their work. During this time she had completely recovered her whole energy and strength from all of the battles that she had on that day. She had also been able to gather her thoughts and psychology recovered and was able to have her time of mourning her losses from her rebellion. Yet she found that this might have been due

Doormaze Drage The Purple Artefacts Part Six

 The Purple Monster  “Why?” “Open the book and put all of the other Purple Artefacts into the page that it fits.” Doormaze nodded as she opened the book. On the first page as a hole where she put the Purple Purl in. The page glowed and for a moment. When the glowing died down the purl was in the page, almost like a picture. She then turned another page. There was another hole with a flower hole in. She then placed the Purple Flower in. It glowed and soon the flower was in the book. She turned the page, where she placed the Purple Feather in.  Once it became a picture the book glowed. Soon light flooded the room. All had to close their eyes as the light became far too bright. Then Doormaze no longer felt the book in her hands. She opened her eyes to see a light above her hands almost like a miniature star. What is this? Then it became so bright she had to close her eyes again. Then she felt something covering her body. It felt light and comfortable. Her eyes opened to see that she was c

Doormaze Drage The Purple Artefacts Part Four

  The Purple Book They travelled down the cave in West Mountain for an entire day. Yet they did not leave until the following day. They left the cave to see a group of small houses. They were all small and in the style of King Garnet’s castle. “This is the abandoned town of Faiton. It’s here somewhere. So I think we will have to go in them to find it. You need not worry, there has not been a single person seen here in decades.” The other three nodded. “And what does this next artefact look like?” “It is a purple book. It is made from the same material as the crystal flower.” “Right. Then, let’s split up and explore every house.” Doormaze spoke, punching her fist. “And mark the door of the house that has been checked and leave the door open while it's being checked.” “Good thinking.” They all split and walked into the first house that was closest to them. They all started on the ground floor. Then the first floor and the second floor. Upon seeing nothing, they left the house. They p

Doormaze Drage The Purple Artefacts Part Three

  The Purple Flower They, because it was late when they reached the top chamber, decided to take a break. They lit a fire and, after cooking a small stew, started to eat. “Now, tomorrow, where to next?” “Well, Doormaze, we must travel over the Flower Bridge. It used tobe a small village on a large plot of land that the other mouth of the cave leads to. The houses were too and far between. It was mainly covered in many different purple flowers.” “And that’s why it’s called Flower Bridge?” “Well, that is because of the plot of land that joins the East Mountain, which we are in, and West Mountain, which is where the Purple Flower is in, is naturally formed.” “And there is nothing underneath it.” “No.” “Well,” She said, finishing her meal. “That’s something to sleep on.” After they all ate their meal,they went to sleep. Doormaze dreamed of Natalie again. She opened her, now dragon, eyes. She walked over to the dragons. They were sound asleep. She smiled as she turned away from them. She wa

Scar Parents Fight Part Four

  Mother’s Knife Scar woke. She saw Morara right in front of her. She dived back as she punched her. She tried to unbuckle, yet she noticed that she soon noticed that it was jammed. She tried to pull the belt but that too was jammed. She tried to pull it again and again and again but it did nothing. She looked up in fear as she saw the knife coming at her. She quickly dived out of the way then the knife turned to her. She tried to punch her but she caught her wrist. She tried to pull her hand out of her hand. Yet she was too strong. She saw the knife getting closer and closer. She hit the arm as hard as she could which made her drop the knife. She then finally pulled out more of her belt and fell out. She then felt a slit in her arm. She let out a whimper as she looked up at Morana went to stab her again and again. She kicked her again and again and again. She looked at both Alex, who was unconscious. She drove her hands to his belt and she pulled the belt and he hit his head as he fel

Scar Parents Fight Final Part

  Assassin’s Sacrifice  Charlotte, knowing that none of them had any time or chance to call an ambulance, ran. She knew where the hospital was and that none of them had any time to lose. She ran down the street as fast as she could. Yet it must have been obvious where she was running to as Morana looked at her innanyer and knew in that moment she would kill to stop her from going there.  Her parents had the exact expression on their faces when she had to stop pretending that she was a boy. After all, they always wanted a boy and when she was born a girl they tried to turn her into one. But the only thing that reminded them that she was a girl was her name, which they shortened to Charlie at one point. Just to keep the illusion that she was a boy alive in their deluded minds. The only thing that got her out of that situation was the series of dead girls that were her sisters and only one son being alive at the cost of her neglect. Van Kira, she remembered his name was. “Oh no you don’t!
