“Arra, slow down!” Claire called as I sprinted down the halls, giggling. I was so excited!
I was finally getting a new little sibling!
Last time this happened, two years ago, I was told that I couldn't see my new little sister. They had told me that she had died when she was born, but now I know better. They just wanted me to find her on my own; it was a test. She's really cute, but really pale. I named her Chrystiana because it's a really pretty name, just like her.
“Arra!” Slone yelled, flying over my head and landing in front of me, cutting me off.
“Why would you do that?” I whined, stopping in front of her.
“Because you know you're not allowed to be there.” She put her hands on her hips, her platinum silver hair settling onto her shoulders. “It’s too dangerous for you.”
“Then why do you and Claire get to go, huh?” I pointed out, tearing up.
“You wouldn't understand…” She mumbled, looking away, as Claire finally caught up to us.
“You'd expect lightning to make me faster, m-” I cut Claire off as I walked around them both and stomped into my mother's room.
