Chapter 1 {The Past}

I was only 5 when I found myself in the woods.I was alone and scared,it was cold and the snow underneath me made it worst.I couldn't remember how or when I got here,I just knew it was dangerous to be here for too long.So,I ran blindly for an exit,I ran faster when I heard howls behind me.No matter how fast I ran I heard the howls closer and closer,Faith didn't want me to escape because once the howls were close enough I tripped and twisted my ankle.When I looked back a pack of wolves were bearing their teeth at me and their ears folded back. I tried to scream,but it was caught in my throat, instead I silently cried and closed my eyes.I heard a wolf barking and as it was going to pounce on me,a crow cawed three times when I looked to my right I didn't see one crow but three.All of them were glaring at the wolves,as if they were warning them to back off.The wolves whimpered and ran away.I let a sigh of relief escape from me,but I knew I wasn't out of danger yet.Two of the crows flew away to the direction I was running to and was out of sight.The third one flew next to me and kept me company.I didn't know why but when I was about to close my eyes the bird kept cawing to keep me from what might be my last breath.Finally after what seems like 5 hours the other two crows came back,after a while I heard a voice calling out "Hello anybody there?" I was surprise that anyone will come here I was overjoyed that I might to be found,but when I tried to respond no words came out since I forgot how.I cried silently,I was scared that I might never be found.The crows cawed at the same time,I thought they might be sending I signal since a man came behind me.I looked back the man seemed young and kind,he probably saw me holding my ankle and scooped me up without saying a word.I looked back and saw the crows that saved my life,I gave them a warm smile.They flew away, even though they did I felt like they were watching from afar to make sure I got out safely.Once I was out I heard flaps of wings and three caws,I was kinda sad to see them go,but I'll never forgot them.

That kind man had a wife and a daughter,since I didn't know how to speak I couldn't introduce myself.Instead I hold onto the man's coat as tight I could,I was still afraid and didn't want him to put me down.He squeezed me tight and pointed to his daughter,I looked at her direction and her curly,long blond hair really brought out her eyes that were glaring at me.Her arms were folded and a devilish smile came upon her face.My eyes widened full with terror and I pulled closer to the man.When I looked at him he slowly said something as he pointed to his daughter.I listen closely and finally I understand he was saying 'Sarah'.I tried to say the name the best way I could,slowly I said "Sa-rah?".He seemed really happy to hear since he was laughing,so was Sarah,but it seemed she was laughing at me.I blushed and the he pointed to a woman with long blond hair that fell on her forehead forming the same thing on my forehead except my hair was pitch black.I guessed that woman was his wife and the mother of Sarah.The man said something again I tried to comprehend,but I still didn't understand,he kept repeating it then when I listen really hard then I finally understand he was saying 'Jade'.I thought I could say it,I cleared my throat and looked at the man he anxious to hear say her name.That gave me a boosted of confidence and I said her name as clearly as I could "J-J-ade?"Right then the man had an ear to ear smile,I looked at jade she didn't seemed to smile,instead she rolled her eyes.Sarah just ignore the whole situation and went up stairs.I had a feeling that Jade and Sarah didn't like me.Soon after I learned new words and learned how to make conversation with somebody.The sweet kind man said to call him 'Father'.He said he'll call me 'Ava' since he always wanted a daughter named that,I was overjoyed to have very own name. When I asked Jade if I could call her mother she glared at me and said "I'm only a mother to my real daughter,I have no desire to make you as my daughter and so I don't want to be reminded that some girl came to my house and became part of the family." With that she turned around and continued smoking her cigarette.I felt tears come to my eyes,I knew she didn't like me,but I never knew she can so cruel.I didn't understand why since I was young.Father sent me off to school once he thought I knew how to speak well.Sarah and I were in the same classroom,I was really content but it didn't seem Sarah was.Whenever I tried to talk to her she always ignore me and so did her friends.I got the message when I was six she turned the whole class against me, no one will play,talk or even help me.I was alone.I couldn't tell father since Sarah threatened me if I did.I will always sit by myself at lunch until a new transfer students came to our class.There names were Ace and Jason.Ace seemed to get along with everyone,but Jason didn't seemed interested even though half of the girls in our class were stuck with him like glue.His black hair was almost like mine.He had hair naturally placed on his forehead making his bangs and his hair wasn't to short it only made past his ear.His eyes were a light violent and long lashes made the pop.His skin was pale,but not too like some vampire's just a little shaded.Before I knew it I was staring at him,just like that he turned his head and faced me.His caught mine and everything else seemed to disappear.He was probably as surprised then I was.When I finally realized what was happening I quickly turned my head to the window when I looked back at him he was talking to the girls.I knew they were warning him not to get near so I didn't get my hopes up to become friends.Then I looked at Ace, he had dark red hair and the same kind of skin Jason had,he also also had dark green eyes.I thought Jason and Ace were related or friends since they both have the same skin color and hair style.Sarah was talking to him,then she saw me staring at them,she glared at me and continued to talk to Ace.In less than a minute Sarah pointed at me as she talked to Ace.Ace looked at me and his eyes widened in surprised.I quickly Looked away,but I still felt eyes on me.The girls talking to Jason pointed at me too,as soon as they did Jason turned back and looked at me.His eyes show no emotions.I knew at that second Sarah and the other girls were warning Jason and Ace to stay away from me.Jason stood up from his desk and walked to mine at that moment Ace did the same thing.The room was quiet.Both,Jason and Ace were at my desk simultaneously both took out their hands and said "Nice to meet you!".They gave me a big smile,the whole class practically gasped.I gave them a warming smile and shook their hands.Our friendship grew and grew until Sarah snatched away Ace from us.Ace was then on the other side.I was disappointed,I couldn't believe Ace did that.I thought we were friends,now he will probably hate me since he over there now.Jason saw the sadness in my eyes and grabbed my hand.Without looking at me he said "Don't worry,even though he gone I always be by your side,you're not alone."At that moment he looked at me and smile.I smiled back and grabbed his pinky "Pinky swear!"Jason smile grew bigger "Yeah!"There I knew Jason was special to me.Our bond was stronger then ever,but when I'm with him I feel 'eyes' on me,as if I'm being watch.It would always kinda scares me,I didn't tell anyone since I don't people to think I'm weirder than they thought.


When it was close to my birthday {the day I was found} without warning,Father passed away in a car crash while looking for a gift for me.I blamed myself and so did Sarah and Jade.I cried the most at his funeral,when I wasn't paying attention Sarah and her mom left me alone in the church.I wasn't scare because Father was there to protect me.Right?I remember at that moment the door creaked.No one was inside except me and the cold body that used to be my Father.I heard footsteps coming closer to me.Step,step,step.Then I saw a little boy's figure.As he came closer to the light I saw his face.I gasped,"What are you doing here,Ace?"He came closer to me kneel beside me and gave me warm hug.Even though he was covered in snow,his heart was so warm.When I tried to hug back he disappeared into a fog of a lost memory.I got up and walked to the door it was closed even though Ace left it open.I turned the handle and open to a cold,snowy night.Just like the day I was found.I placed my hands in my pocket and felt something in it.I slowly took it out and found a necklace with a red ruby that has a black center on it.From what I heard there no such thing as these rubies,I thought it was special and kept close to me.Even though my house is only a few blocks away,I felt safe with with the necklace near me.I didn't care where the necklace came from I just glad i had it.I was colder then usual since I was wearing a dress and flats.There I felt the 'eyes' on me closer then before,at that moment I felt a hand on my shoulder.My eyes were full with terror,my body stiffen.I slowly turned my head to meet the eyes of the person I needed the most.Tears wield up in my eyes,I wrapped my arms around the ghostly figure of my Father.But I knew it was worthless,he wasn't there,he was gone.I fell onto the ground,no one needed me,not even notice I was gone.I wondered why was I born into a world when I have no meaning to it.There I sat alone on the snow.I saw someone coming to me,I thought it was another illusion and looked away.But it won't go away it came closer,the manly figure came in front of me,the moonlight shined upon him.His eyes were the color of blood and behind him were big black wings.My eyes widened when he smiled showing a pair of fangs.He spoke with a deep voice "Are you in pain?Are you alone?" he looked both ways and looked back at me.He grinned wider and laughed.He kneel in front of me and came closer to me,he whispered "I'll give you even more pain!"I wanted to scream but it was caught in my throat.I wanted to move but my body felt like it had chains all over it.I prepared for the worst and closed my eyes.After a while nothing happened that was when I noticed drops of blood on the snow and a knife stabbed into the body of the man.I felt my body able to move again and pulled away from the body.I was speechless
