Chapter 13

Chapter 13: Now in William’s point of view Me? She wants me? Was Byleth jealous of how me and Ivory have bonded over the trip? I have so many questions. It just means that she wants me back as her friend, right? Right? Then I remember that moment, in the forest when the figson interrupted us. Was that more than friends? I promised myself that I would wipe that memory away from my mind. I look up at her, her teel complexion, her vast wings. The silence stretches on and on, until I finally decide to say, “I’m sorry, Byleth.” I don’t know why I say it but I feel like I should be sorry that she was hanging back all that time, that Mavi was the only organism that she could really talk to. That wasn’t fair, especially from me. “I know, it’s ok.” She says point-blank. Oof, that is not a solid apology, but I’ll accept it. I nod. Ivory is silent all this time, her wings slowly fluttering in the air, her gaze from me to Byleth. “Let’s take a break, I think we all need one.” Ivory mentions . We a

Chapter 12

Chapter 12 The whole time, Ivory and Will laugh at each other and talk to each other. I talk to Mavi several times, hoping that Mavi can hear me. “They just laugh and laugh and laugh and laugh...ugh! The nerve!” Just when I can’t take it any longer, I hear a voice in my head. It’s just a small voice but I can still hear it quite clear. “Ivory can be gone, it can just be you and Will, forever.” I stop in the air, hanging onto every word the voice says. “I see I have your attention now, Byleth.” The voice soothes. “Ivory was cursed, poor thing doesn’t deserve to be harmed but…” I mutter to myself and think of everything that can happen if Ivory is gone. “If you would like to take me up on my offer, meet me at that tree with a figson on top of it, see it?” I look down toward the trees and spot a little pastel creature on top of it, sleeping on a high branch. Will and Ivory finally notice that I’ve stopped and fly toward me. “Byleth, are you ok? Your eyes are glowing purple! I haven’t seen

Chapter 11

Sorry I didn't post yesterday, I didn't have any time so today I am going to post this chapter, and chapter 12 :) Chapter 11 I realize I am still in dragon form and decide to turn back to an elf before she thinks we’re going to kill her or something. Will does the same. “Can we just pick some fruit here? Someone is trying to hunt down this girl so that she can get her on the evil side so we need to hurry.” Will explains and points to me. “Fine by me, just pick the right fruit tree. If you don’t, then you will die.” Ivory states. “Can’t we just pick another fruit forest without the eat and die rule?” I whisper to Will. Will shakes his head, “This is the only one for miles around, you would starve to death if we waited any longer.” He replies. “So just pick a fruit? Any fruit?” I ask, nervously. “Yes mam, it has to be the perfect fruit and there are only two perfect fruits in all of this forest so choose wisely.” Ivory always ends her sentences with ‘choose wisely’ and I can’t se

Chapter 10

       Chapter 10 It takes so long to get to the daylight tribe that I have to refill my pouch with leaves for Mavi fifteen times. Mavi does get in the way sometimes, he sometimes crawls out of the pouch and jumps on my back for a ride but eventually squeals loudly because he thinks he will fall off. He’s worth keeping though, he’s the cutest! I honestly don’t think that Will is the biggest fan of Mavi. Every time I go down to get new leaves, Will always mutters something like “If you hadn't gotten Mavi in the first place, we wouldn’t have to stop so much.” But I secretly know that he’s quite fond of Mavi except for the many times we have to stop for him. Something rumbles. “Mavi? Are you hungry again? If we have to stop one more time I will-” And then I realize that the rumbling is my own stomach. “Will? I think we need to stop for some food. My stomach is angry at me.” I say. “Sure! The only problem is that there is only one place to get food, and that’s the Fruit Forest. It’s ju

Chapter 9

Chapter 9 I want to scream. I collapse down to my knees, sobbing silently. Through tears, I see Will coming down to see what’s wrong. “Whoa! What’s wrong? Figsons aren’t that violent, are they?” Will asks. I can’t believe it, Rayonetta went with us on our trip, Rayonetta fought the element dragon, Lamia. She did all that...just to get me over to their side, just have an advantage against the other tribes. Will wiped the tears from my face. We look into each other's eyes. I stop sniffling for just a moment. He won’t kiss me will he? He leans into me. However, before anything happens, the figson crawls up onto my face, and licks my nose. I laugh, wiping the tears away from my face. He pulls me up to my feet. “I’m sorry, for that I didn’t mean-” Will starts. I cut him off, “It’s um ok, that figson sure is a troublemaker though.” I say, rubbing the tiny creature behind it’s ears. “Ok, well let’s get into the air, you can tell me what’s wrong then.” He smiles and I don’t see any frustra

Chapter 8

Chapter 8 Some days, I think of what I would be doing if I was still in normal life, maybe sitting at home, being bored? But instead, I’m in the woods, cringing at every noise, and wondering where Will thinks we should be going. I trip on a twig for the hundredth time, catching Will’s attention. “Are you ok?” He asks me. “Yup, fine. What are we hoping to look for anyway?” I ask him, panting for breath. “Byleth, we can stop if you want.” Will says bluntly. “Ok, let’s stop at this tree right here.” I point to a tall tree nearby to sit under. A gust of wind sends chills down my spine, making me want something warm. I sit down next Will, and take deep breaths to calm my heart down. I open my mouth to say something but Will covers it with his hand. “Shhhhh, listen.” He says.  I listen. There’s a voice, a thick british accent but calm at the same time “She what? That’s impossible. Lamia- there’s just no way.” The person speaking, who I now I can identify as a female, is devastated. I hear so

Chapter 7

Chapter 7 Sometimes I think that people can be nice if they really try. For example, Rayonetta was never nice to Will but now she’s warming up to us because she is literally going to be on a whole trip with us. “Oh yeah, so this is my brother, you probably already assumed that though.” Corrin tells me. I never knew that! Is she ok with me being friends with her brother? Is she extra over protective over her brother? I don’t know but I know I shouldn’t be worrying this much. “So, what did you do back in the human world Byleth?” Will asks me. “Oh, well I was actually pretty shy, especially at my school. No one ever really liked my hair because they thought it looked like barf. My brother, Noah would always get in trouble for stuff because he always did things without my mom’s permission. My mom is an editor, she edits books so that people can publish them.” I explain. “Well, I like your hair.” Will compliments. Awkward silence follows. “Um, thanks.” I say after a while. “Yup, no problem

Yesterday, me and my family had such a fun time with our cousins and grandparents! We started the day out with swimming. We jumped in through the inter tubes which was a lot of fun! Me and one of my cousins went underwater and did some cool tricks as well. At one point, my brother took all of the floats in the pool and made a raft for himself. Here is him on his raft, me photo-bombing, and my cousin behind the raft: After that, we went to my cousin's house to play video games. After a few races in Mario kart, we all headed over to our grandparents house to have some dinner and dessert. Although we planned on play charades, this is what it turned into... everyone playing volleyball and me learning how to volleyball😂. While me, my cousins, and the dads played volleyball, the others talked. Here is a picture of my grandparents, my mom, and my brother talking (My aunt would be in it but she was the one taking the volleyball picture so she wasn't there at the time) Me and my cousin

Chapter 6

Chapter 6: Now back in Byleth’s point of view I know that Will is an element dragon, I just know it. I mean, why else would he not be affected by the power surge? After we get back home from the twilight tribe, we thankfully see that everyone is ok and no one is groaning as they were earlier. William walks toward a group of his friends while I rush over to see Corrin and Amelia. “Amelia! Are you ok?” I ask her. “I’m ok, what were you doing while our power was being drained?” Amelia asks. I don’t know what to say. “I was midway walking toward the concession stand but collapsed on the ground. Will saw me and came as fast he could because I had fallen on cement. But we were both ok in the end.” I lie. I’ve never lied like this before, I guess I just figured out that I’m good at it. “Oh, for some reason I remember you leaning over me, asking what was going on and not being affected by the power drain. After that, I went unconscious. I think everybody else did too. The power drain was too

Swimming with my friends

When I woke up this morning, I ate breakfast, read my book, and played Township. If you are not sure what township is, here's a simple description: You plant crops, and those crops evolve into ingredients that can make certain products which then you can give people those products for coins. I would post a picture of it below, but I already have quite a lot of pictures to show of me swimming with my friends for today. Speaking of which, I went with my friends today to their aunts house to swim! It's so cool there and also their dog can swim in the pool😮. Me and my friends had a lot of fun playing fetch with the dog that could swim because it jumped so high when it tried to catch the ball! We ate lunch there, played some pool games, and had so much fun! Towards the end, me and my friends all squeezed into one flamingo float but as you can see in the third picture, someone is about destroy that...😂 For the rest of the day, I drew with my friends and talked with them. I watched

Chapter 5

Chapter 5: Now in William’s point of view I look at everyone and then I look at Byleth. Her teal hair catches in the sunlight and our eyes meet for a moment but I run over to her before I can even think of what to do. “Follow me, take this and put the hood on.” I say strictly. “Your one of those element things too?” Byleth asks. I don’t respond. “Now is not the time for that, we’re going to turn into sunset dragons and fly over to the other tribes as soon as possible. Once we get to the twilight tribe, we’ll see if anyone is outside. If there’s not anyone outside, then hopefully the power drain will have stopped but if not, then we’ll figure what to do from there. The reason why you aren’t affected is because you are an element dragon and I-well that’s classified.” I try to sound as brave as I can but really, I’m quite worried. “Will, it’s going to be fine don’t worry. We can do this.” Byleth grasps my arm. We turn into dragons and fly toward the twilight tribe. “Why don’t you judge me

A fun hike!

This morning, I was woken up early to go on a hike with my cousins! We had a lot of fun, even if the first mile was pretty strenuous😬. Here are some pictures of me, and some of the others on the way up: On the way up, my cousin got a shot of a really tiny chipmunk jumping over some rocks: (It kind of blends in with the scenery but hopefully your able to see it😊) Here is a picture of what it looked like in the beautiful forest where we were hiking: At one point, there was a small rest area with a couple of rocks and logs to sit on. It was the end of the super steep part at the beginning of the hike so we all stopped there to have some water and eat some snacks. Here is me on top of one of the logs tea-posing😋 : We technically only hiked a third of the way to the tallest mountain in the Southern California but still, we all felt accomplished when we got to the point where we turned back. We stopped there to talk, eat snack, and take a break. Here is all of us at our final destination:

Chapter 4

 Chapter 4 “Um sure, come in.” I leave the door open for Amelia to walk in and she sits down. “Your red are you hot? It gets so hot in the sunset tribe all the time. There’s an air conditioner in here and it can go really low.” I stare at the ceiling. “There’s so many things here, and I just don’t think I’m fit out for this. I’m just a nobody that’s having a weird dream, that’s all.” My eyes burn. “Byleth, you’re really an amazing person. We haven’t had a newcomer in what? 3 years? Pinch yourself. I guarantee that you’re not in a dream.” Amelia says. I pinch myself and wince. “You know what’s crazy? The element dragon is still out there. No one has even seen her since the war.” Amelia’s face turns dark and she is silent for a while. I feel horrible, like I somehow am hurting the tribe, even though I know I’m not. “Um, so what else do people do here?” I ask to break the awkward silence that has formed. “Oh, you know, train for their powers...eat, drink, swim and that’s pretty much it. O

Fan art, Pizza, and Harry Potter!

This morning, I played animal crossing and worked on a cover for my mom's recipe binder. She is planning on putting most of her recepies in a binder so she asked me to make a cover for it. Since we have been reading Harry Potter lately, I am making the dining hall from the school in Harry Potter. Speaking of Harry Potter, we ordered the illustrated version of book one today and have read a chapter of it! We love it a lot and our brother is now joining us with reading the books. Here is the three of us below with the new book: After lunch, me and my mom watched an episode of Good Witch (A Hallmark series that we both are re watching since the latest season has ended) Then, I went to my friend's house and drew a bit more. For the drawings that I have done today, Go to chapter 4. The fan art that I have been made is quite impressive compared to my drawings😢but my friends say that with more practice, I will get better at it. I have a lot of fun drawing and playing with my friends

Chapter 3

Chapter 3 “Oh um, hey Will.” Corrin looks at her feet. “Welcome Blythe, to Stathford where all sunset dragons live in peace. I’m William, the tribal leader. Nice to meet you.” His hand is held out and I shake it but I don’t know why, I just feel really funny doing it. It’s probably just because I’m in a fantasy world. “No one can know that she has never figured that she’s an elf before!” Corrin quickly saves me from my secret and I snap out of my gaze at William. “Would you like me to show you around Blythe?” William asks me. “Of course! I mean, sure.” I say. “Ok then, I have a lot to show you but before we start, you look like you're starving.” He points to a nearby cafe named Sunset cafe. “But I just ate lunch.” I protest. “Not here. If any dragon comes from the human world to the dragon world, they feel just as hungry as they did before they ate their recent meal. All food eaten in one day in the human world is erased so you are starving because your body hasn’t had any food yet

Drawing spree!

Since I borrowed the markers from my friends, I have been drawing a lot so that I can post some things on my blog and so that everyone can know what the characters look like. To see these characters, go to chapter 3. I have learned how to draw basic hands and feet and plan to master the body soon or tomorrow morning. So that's basically what I did this morning. I also played some Animal Crossing. I took this super cute video of one of my animals dancing. If you don't play animal crossing or don't know what the game is- Just keep in mind that this is a dog that's dancing because he just got a new outfit and really likes it :) Other than that, I ate lunch while my mom read an exciting chapter of Harry Potter to me and my brother. My brother was eating with us and decided to listen in on what the chapter was about. I am really excited about how my book is coming along. Although I haven't written any additional chapters yet, I have gotten some characters from friends an
