Part Two of Lost Identity
“Run, run, they are coming! Hurry!!!” A small girl says
with an accent as she takes my arm and pulls me behind a tree. She has two
ponytails and is wearing a tattered pinkish-purple jumpsuit; I would guess she
is around five or six years old.
“Who is coming, and who are you?” I whisper as the girl
looks around franticly.
“Who is coming? Well, the Evil Orson, Orson Stone and his
son Boris are coming!” the girl says with an even thicker accent than before;
“be very quiet now,” she seems to be very scared of this Orson Stone.
“If I may,” I ask in a low tone, “what is your name?”
“Not now, later, I will tell you later-“ the girl takes
my arm again and leads me under and into some roots, big hulking roots. “Now I
will tell you, my name is Jennise Meek, young daughter of the warrior Roan
Meek,” the girl smiles proudly. “Who are you?”
“I am Theodora Flynn, you can call me Theo though,” I say
very softly not expecting any unusual response because I am an orphan. No one
knows anyone with the last name of Flynn were I come from.
But. Nonetheless. Jennise gasps as she says in shock,
“You, you, you are just another imposter aren't you-Why would you even dare to
consult me!” Jennise roars as she thrusts her arms to my neck and transforms
into some sort of beast thing with large blood stained yellow teeth and pinkish
purple tattered fur, just like her jumpsuit. “Never speak of the lost girl
again or you will suffer,” the monster of the once sweet girl Jennise growls in
a low voice.
“Okay you caught me I have to go now…” I confess as I run
away from Jennise with fear in my eyes; what does she mean ‘the lost girl’ was
she talking about me? I bet she wasn’t, I probably said another name like,
Sophia Royal or something like that. But deep inside of me I know Jennise was talking
about me.
I keep
running through the forest for a long time, not because I am scared of Jennise
but because I am scared of what she meant. I was scared of who the lost girl
might be. I stop at what seems like good place to camp out-I don’t know how long
I will stay here. I decide to start a fire and warm up. I hadn’t realized how
dark and cold it had gotten. But, I thought better of it. I would play it safe
until I know whom Orson and Boris Stone are. I choose that’s how I will spend
the next hour or two thinking, thinking of who I am, why I am here and who the
lost girl is.
Stay posted,
Nina
