• a storm...
    a man..
    whats he holding...
    THATS MY HEAD!

    I wake up with a jolt and my head starts to hurt, really bad. oh man it hurts "hey girl are you ok?" hun? who's that? I open my eyes and there's this 15 year old boy sitting beside me, "umm... I think so. but my head is killing me." "should we get you to a healer!?" all of a sudden he looked really anxious "dude it's a figure of speech" "'dude'? whats a 'dude'?" about this time I notice what he's wearing and I kinda stare at him, "what!? why are you stareing at me" "your clothes, duh, are you one of those 'dungens and dragons' freaks?" he was wearing these blue robes like he was some kinda wizzard. "maybe you should come with me, you must have hit your head harder than i thought." was all he said.
    I know what your thinking 'how could I just go with him, he could be a rapist for all I know' well, i'd nearly been drowned so I wasnt in my best frame of mind. so the guy lead me back to his house, we didnt speak anymore which was fine by me, my head still hurt. when we got there I was stunned it wasnt a house it was a weird little cottage on the edge of a forest. I mean a cottage in the woods isnt weird, but what was weird was that it had a waterfall beside it the waterfall wasnt weird but the waterfall was going up the cliff. so i did what anyone would have done I stoped and stared. the boy said "well are you comeing or not?" "uh... yeah" thinking I must have it my head pretty hard i followed him.
    the boy's name, which is Jace. and the man he is liveing with, his 'mentor' as Jace called him, his name is Nicholas. their telling about how how jace is Nicholas's apprentice and Jace is studding to become a mage. as I sit there I realize that where ever I am it's not the world im from. so when he asked me where I was from I lied like a rug. I told them that my name was Maryse and I came from across the sea and the boat I was on was smashed in a storm and everyone, but me, was dead. I got a suspicious look from Nicholas but Jace seemed ready to belive me. "well, well thats quite a story you have there. since you have a long few weeks you can stay here as long as you like." Nicholas said. "thats very nice of you Mr. Niholas" "think nothing of it my child" i nodded and went upstairs to the guest room Nicholas had congered up for me.
