Chapter 1

The Beginning

Once there were 2 birds, named Flower and Leaf.Flower and Leaf met and had eggs together. But first, they made a nest of twigs leaves spider webs mud and many other things they could find.They had 4 eggs. 3 of the eggs hatched a year later. They named the 3 new babies Rose Lilac and daisy. Flower and Leaf stared at the fourth egg expectantly waiting for it to hatch. After about 10 minutes they gave up and lost all hope for the egg. But then as they turned their backs they heard a sound and turned around to see the egg hatch. A tiny bird of yellow and green took her first breath. Flower and Leaf named her Sunny. Flower and Leaf loved all their daughters. But one day while Flower and Leaf were out hunting a hawk came and grabbed sunny. Sunny screeched so loud Flower and Leaf came rushing up and saw the hawk. Flower and Leaf came rushing at full speed and attacked the hawk. Now Sunny was a year old and was just learning how to fly so she could not fly so well. Flower and Leaf pecked at the hawk and were so intent they did not see the hawk drop Sunny. While Sunny was falling down she tried to flap her wings but she could not fly. by accident, her foot caught on a branch and she thought oh well, at least, I am safe but then the hawk came back and tried to bite her she let go.Sunny was again falling. Finally, she landed in some tar exhausted and in pain sunny could not get up. Sunny let out a small squeak of pain. Flower and Leaf heard her and came down to help her get up. They went to a river nearby and tried to wash the tar off but some of the tar on the tips of her feathers would not come off because it was dry. Flower looked at and said to Leaf “ it kind of looks beautiful and we will love her anyway.” Leaf agreed and they flew home.

Sunny woke up in her room confused. She looked around for her mom and dad but could not find them. Sunny looked and saw that the edge of her wings had black stuff on the edge of them. Then Sunny remembered the hawk. She was thinking about the hawk when she saw a flash of her sister's feathers. And thought why the hawk took her why not Rose, or Lilac, or even Daisy. She thought she must have the worst luck ever but that was just the beginning.

Chapter 2

School

Sunny was SO excited! She kept on thinking FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL HOORAY! But in the back of her mind, she was thinking if anyone would like her because of her wings. Her sisters Lilac and Rose were having similar thoughts about if anyone would like them minus the wings. Sunny thought she might not make any friends and her sisters could be really popular. Well, Sunny would just have to wait and see.
Girls calm down or I might have to get your father to take you! Said Flower. Finally, the girls settled down enough for Flower to give them advise. Girls flight school can be fun but challenging you can not yet fly so this will be where you learn you will get some bad grades and some good but the most important part is making friends. Not all kids can be your friends just remember that ok. Ok said all the girls at once. Finally, the words the 3 little parakeets wanted to here were said. “Here we GO!”

Bye said Flower. Oh my gosh thought Sunny I am really here. I wonder if I belong here. Sunny watched as all different types of birds in colors of red, green, yellow, pink, blue, and many more colors all fly around or try to fly. Sunny thought soon she was going to be one of those birds but first she had to find her classroom.

As Sunny entered room 201 she saw 15 different birds sitting on what looked like acorn desks with some other stuff to make it bigger and more sturdy As she walked in all the birds turned and looked at her. Suddenly Sunny felt really small. Then her teacher looked like she saw that sunny was uncomfortable with all the attention and said back to work class. Then the teacher came over and talked to Sunny. She said I put you over near the bird over there. Her name is named blue and I thought you two would get along so I put you next to her. K I mumble and went over there. The bird blue she remembered asked what her name was and Sunny answered saying her name was Sunny. Blue said that was a very pretty name and I returned the compliment.

After about an hour of learning flying techniques and flight patterns the teacher said we could all go outside to the flying platform and try to fly. Sunny was very excited again she was so excited she had butterfly's flying all around in her stomach. Blue came over and asked her some questions like "why are the tip of your wings black I have never seen that before?" and "how old are you?" or like "do you like it here." I answered each one and as I did I felt a little better.

(new story)

Chapter 1

Silent Wing

Silent Wing was a tiny filly no more than a minute old. Silent Wing was no ordinary filly though she had the wings of a Pegasus and the horn of a unicorn which made her an alicorn. She sat there beside her mother and stared around and neighed for the first time in her life. Her mother Glitter looked surprised but happy and then there was her father White Fur who looked proud. Glitter suggested the name Silent Wing and White Fur agreed. 2 weeks later Silent wing was already mischievous and getting into trouble. Silent Wing knew she was odd because her mother was a unicorn and her father was a Pegasus. One day Silent Wing woke in a start there was a puff of black cloud that looked like something came up to a cloud and turned it black. Not only that there were loud cracking sounds. Silent Wing neighed in fright. Glitter and White Fur woke up and looked at each other in alarm.

Chapter 2

Fire

Silent Wing looked out of the little white grove she lived in and saw a red and orange thing that looked like a tongue. Glitter neighed for Silent Wing to come back for it was not safe. Glitter and White Fur neighed for Silent Wing to follow them as fast and as silently as she could. Glitter and White Fur dashed like two hares being chased by a wolf the only problem was Silent Wing was not good at running at all so she flew in a frantic fright after them.

Chapter 3

The Chase

The family ran and flew as fast as the wind but it seemed like the fire was just one step ahead. Finally, Silent Wing could not keep going and fell to the ground unconscious from exhaustion but the last thing she saw and heard was a blurry outline of her mother neighing in distress and coming back to get her then darkness engulfed her. Glitter and White Fur ran back and White Fur lifted Silent Wing onto Glitters back and they ran till they got to a little clearing in the trees. Glitter thought it was a good distance away and nodded in approval and gently put Silent Wing onto the grass. Then Glitter and White Fur fell asleep.

Chapter 4

The Awakening

When Silent Wing finally woke up she was frightened and scared. She could tell she was not in her nice little safe grove instead she saw big threatening trees all around her threatening to crush her between their trunks. She neighed in a frightened tone and heard her mothers tired but gentle voice saying hush we are safe. When Silent Wing looked up she saw her mother and fathers relieved faces.

Chapter 5

The Story

Silent Wing looked up wondering what had happened. Her mother must have caught her look because she was about to tell Silent Wing what happened. Glitter told Silent Wing that she had collapsed from the heat and exhaustion. She also told Silent Wing that her mother and father ran for about 3-4 more hours after until they got to the opening in the trees and when they had looked back they could not hear the fire roaring or see the hungry red flames coming after them so they had stopped to rest. Glitter also said they had worried that Silent Wing had been badly injured because she had not moved a muscle sense she had passed out.

Chapter 6

The new place

Silent Wing had never been outside the little grove she had lived in her whole life until now. She wanted to explore but she was scared of almost everything. She did not even dare to take one step out of the little clearing or stray too far from her parents. Food was easy to find and so was water but Silent Wing loved to feel the sun on her back. The only problem was they were in a forest with trees that block the sun so all she could feel was shadows dancing on her back and face.

Chapter 7

The Strange Creature

The next week and a half Silent Wing finally worked up enough courage to go outside the hollow for a short walk. When she was about 5 minutes from the clearing a creature as tall as a mountain stepped out to confront her. The creature was red and orange with yellow menacing eyes that pinned her down like a squirrel. It also had wings on its back so flying away was clearly not an option but the thing that frightened her the most were the black puffs of smoke coming from the nose of the creature. This reminded her so much of the puffs of smoke she had saw when the fire had started. She just stared at the creature wishing she had stayed in the clearing and not strayed from her parents. Oh, how she wished they were right here with her to comfort her and protect her. As if the thought summoned them Glitter and White Fur suddenly burst from behind some bushes and faced the horrid creature.

THIRD MARKING PERIOD HERE!!!! the first sentence is in second

Chapter 8

The Rescue

***Silent Wing was so happy to see the faces of her sire and dam.*** Silent Wing was amazed as she watched her father White fur kick the creature with many kicks. Then Glitter used her magic to turn the beast into a squirrel.Silent Wing watched as the creature, now a squirrel scurry up a tree chattering loudly. Glitter turned on Silent Wing with a face of pure fury that was pinning Silent Wing down. Glitter yelled with the fury of 20 warriors at Silent Wing making her shrink even more. " WHY DID YOU GO OUT OF THE CLEARING!?!?!?!" yelled Glitter. "YOU COULD HAVE DIED!!" "I.....I....I... I am sorry I was just looking around when that that thing came and attacked me" You should still not go out of the clearing you will be punished for this" her father said with softness in his voice but fury in his eyes." Come on let's go" Glitter said sternly.

Chapter 9

Punishment

Silent Wing was miserable. Right as they got back to the clearing Silent Wing was punished. She was no longer allowed to leave the clearing for anything. Silent Wing did not care that she could no longer leave the hollow she would never leave again without her parents. Her mother told her that the creature was a dragon. Dragons can breathe fire and love to eat anything that is meat. Silent Wing thought of leaving the hollow and then confronting another dragon she would rather die than do that. So Silent Wing stayed in the clearing and did not leave.

Chapter 10

Bored

As time went on Silent Wing became less and less afraid of leaving the clearing the clearing. On some days, she was so bored the thought of leaving the hollow was constantly in her head, but she always shied away from it.One day about 2-3 months after the encounter with the dragon she was so bored. Her parents were out trying to find a new place to find food because they were running low. So Silent Wing took it upon herself to leave and find something to do. When she had walked for about 3 minutes she came across a beautiful waterfall. She was captivated never wanting to leave or take her eyes off it. She was so intent on the waterfall she did not notice she was being watched.

Chapter 11

Kidnapped

Silent Wing was still looking at the waterfall when she heard a rustle and a voice. "Look at her she is an Alicorn majestic and a beautiful." "I don't know if she sees us before we knock her out we could be in trouble." said another voice. "Well if we keep talking she will. Do you have the sleeping dart." "No, I thought you did." "Well, I don't." After a quick pause, she heard the first person say "I guess we will just have to catch her with ropes and hope she does not know how to use magic." "I doubt that but ok." Silent Wing had heard enough she had to get out of here. She looked around and saw an opening. Ok, she thought that will help. Then she heard a hisst and then there was something around her neck. Then again hisst and another rope around her neck. Silent Wing was starting to panic. Why had she ever left the hollow? Well, she was stuck now and had to deal with her situation.

***MARKING PERIOD 4 STARTS*** **HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!**

New story

I was listening to the dripping of water on a leaf. It was raining again for the 5th day in a row. I was inside listening to the water on the leaf and to my brother crying. Our parents were dead, they were killed by the mysterious monster that was killing people at night. I can still remember that night. It was spring of 2014 , we had just come home after taking a walk around the park. We were all very happy, a jolly family you could say. I was 10 at the time. When we got home we all went to bed but I was having trouble sleeping. I tossed and turned unable to sleep. Then I heard it, the scratch of claws on wood. I was afraid was going to my parent's room when I heard a scream. I ran to the bedroom and saw it, the monster was grabbing my parents and slashing their throats. I stood there not knowing what to do when all of the sudden the monster was gone as suddenly as he had appeared. I stood there shaking like a leaf on a windy day. It finally hit me that my parents were gone and I would never see them again. I crumpled to the floor and cried uncontrollably. My brother had heard the commotion and came to see what happened when he walked in and saw me crying and blood on the bed he screamed. He is still having trouble recovering, he would cry every day whenever he remembered that night. I am 16 now and had to care for him. He is now 10 and he is still not recovering, I don't think he ever will.

Chapter 2

I was trying to be as happy as I could be. But the secrets I knew and the things I saw just haunts me. I have 3 jobs to get enough money to take care of my brother and me. One day I was on a late night shift on one of my jobs when I heard it again. The same scratching sound I heard on the day of my parent's murder. I heard it from about a mile away a quite tapping sound. I could tell where it was and it was in my neighborhood. I ran as fast as I could. The memory was fresh in my mind. The scratching the scream and the blood were replaying in my mind. I ran inside the broken down house where we lived. I ran to my brother's room empty. I ran to the house that I heard the sound. I ran to the living room the memory was playing over and over the whole time. Then I saw it again but, wait what was that. A neckless? Then I heard a scream. Wait I recognized this scream it was the scream of her pale freckled friend Celia. I ran to her room to see the monster with his claws in her leg. Blood was streaming down her legs. I saw fear and pain in her eyes. I reached out and yelled for her to grab hold.When she grabbed me she yelled again and I saw that the monster had tightened his grip. She was losing so much blood. I knew she would never make it. She finally got my hand but when she did she lost the battle. I saw her eyes go dark her hand went limp in mine. I knew I had to get out of here there was nothing I could do anymore. I ran out of the room down the stairs and out of the house. When I got home I was tuckered out. But I had to check if my brother was home. I went up to his room and knocked. He answered, so I went to my room and fell into an uneasy sleep. When I woke up I thought it was going to be a normal day. I got took a shower cooked me and my brother breakfast and went to work a normal day. Until I met a puppy. This puppy was a stray and all alone. I could tell it was hungry because I could see ribs sticking through its pelt. I had always wanted a dog so I brought her home. I named her Rose because she went and jumped in a rose bed in the park. She was a beagle and I absolutely adore beagles. I introduced Rose to my brother for some reason she did not like him kept on growling at him like she knew something I didn't. When he tried to pet her she barked and snapped at his hand. That is peculiar I thought. I told my brother to try tomorrow when she had`slept and had eaten. The next day I took Rose to work with me because she was still uneasy around my brother. Everyone adored her at work just like I did. It was a fantastic day with Rose. I knew I had to make this a permanent thing. I felt bad because I never knew what my brother was up to even though I should be more concerned considering there had been 4 more attacks in the past 2 days. All of those people who got attacked were someone I knew and cared for. Strange isn't it. I keep thinking why is the monster killing people I know and love? Is it just a coincidence? I was still wondering about that when I got home. I felt like I knew the monster that I knew him from the inside. Like I had known him for years. Crazy. When I got home I made dinner for me and my brother. But when I went to go get him I heard a growl. Then a bark then a howl. I ran outside to see a huge wolf. Bigger than you would expect not your average dog size wolf this one was massive, bigger than me. His claws were as big as one of my hands his teeth were bigger than sharks and stained red with blood. Right as I saw this wolf I knew this was the beast that had killed my parents. Right now it was coming toward the house. I screamed ran inside and slammed the door. "Rose." No bark in response then I heard one more howl and a whimper then all was silent. I went outside to find my brother and Rose playing. But then I saw that Rose was whimpering and limping. The whimper I had heard was her. She had been bitten and she was not having fun. I ran and scooped her up in my arms not knowing what to do. I ran inside leaving my brother outside and looked for some rap and alcohol to wash the wound. If I didn't wash it she could die from infection. Finally, I found a soft towel and some alcohol. I yelled for my brother to help me hold her down. I got a more rough towel to catch the blood that was seeping down her leg and to catch the alcohol when it dripped down. The with Roses' head down and her body trapped between me and my brother I started to pour alcohol on her leg. She went crazy I was having trouble holding her down and pouring the alcohol. I was crying from seeing her in so much pain. Oh, why had I let her outside? This was all my fault. After about 2 minutes of pouring the alcohol, it looked very clean so I took the soft towel and carefully wrapped it around her leg and then tied it there as a kind of bandage. I carried her upstairs to my room and went to bed with her in my arms crying.

Chapter 3

After about a week Rose's wound had scabbed and she could walk again with a little limp. There had been one more attack on a friend of mine. Sadly she did not make it. Right now I have one friend left, a secret friend. One only I know about. Her name is Zoe. She has recently moved into our neighborhood. I have a hunch that someone in our neighborhood is the wolf thing. I always feel eyes following me watching. I can't shake the feeling. I just know it is someone I would least expect. I listen for footsteps but there is never any, but there is something I know it. Once very rarely I will hear a twig snap or the rustle of leaves. I also even more rarely I will hear a growl. Not a growl from a dog but a growl from something huge. Bigger than a car or an elephant. Bigger than anyone could ever imagine, and I know it's following me every second of my life. Just waiting for the right time to strike. I never see it but I hear it and feel it like it is a part of me. I also feel like there is more to myself than I know like a part of me that is secret. That I have never known. A part of me that I had power. A great power that I could change the world kind of power. I have these thoughts constantly. When I make breakfast, at work, with my friend, and mostly when I go to bed. I hardly see my brother anymore. He is outside more and more. The worst thing is that there have been attacks at day. AT DAY!!! I don't know what is safe anymore. All I know is that the beast follows me I am pretty sure I know who it is but just can't place it and that it is now attacking at day time as well as night time. To me, my world is coming to an end. But I refuse to be terrified like everyone else. I mean I am terrified but I know that the beast can't harm me. It can't touch me like I am invincible. Whatever it is or who it is can't bring themselves to harm me. As the days went on I became more and more nerves around people. Almost half the people in my neighborhood had been murdered. The detectives are helpless and the police are confused. The remaining people in my neighborhood are scared and they hardly ever leave their houses. I now that if this keeps up everybody in the neighborhood and beyond will be doomed to a horable death.
