I
had run out of the house after my evil stepmothers outrageous comment. I was
sitting in the living room watching T.V. when she stormed in and started
yelling, “Why haven’t you done the dishes, cleaned the floor or picked up the
living room?” I new that I had and told her, “I did do the dishes those are
Sarah and Tina’s dishes! I cleaned the floor and made it spotless, and the
living room is very clean!” The evil women turned around and shot me a look
that burned holes in my face. She hollered, “WELL OBVIOUSLY IT ISNT NOT DONE
WELL ENOUGH!” That’s when I ran out of the house.
I galloped as
fast as I could to the forest. There was nothing my way except a few fallen
trees that we jumped and some low hanging branches that kept slapping me in the
face. All that was going through my mind was “I can not believe she really just
said that to me”. I was to frustrated to even think about it right now it
seemed like I could not make it to the forest fast enough. Once I reached the forest I slowed my horse down
to walk. In the woods, I swore I kept hearing little voices telling me to go
somewhere. I also swore that they were darting back and forth right in front of
my face. Then, right at that moment the sky went black, and there was a large
clap of thunder. Out of know where a wizard appeared. He started to talk to me
but at first I was way to shocked to understand.
“Excuse me?” I
muttered. He once again said, “I am here to lead you on a journey to a better
life, you will meet some very helpful people on the way there, and you will
also meet some very special people!” At first I thought this was a complete
joke until I saw the seriousness on the wizards face. I managed to work out, “How
exactly would I complete this journey?” “Just follow the fairy trail, it will
lead you to magical places and to meet new people.” I except this quest, and
the wizard vanished in what seemed like seconds. When I snapped back to
reality, I went to check my self to see if this was really happening. As soon
as I looked up, there was a trail of little pink and blue fairies leading me
straight ahead.
I followed them
for about 20 minutes. The first place it lead me was a little hut hidden behind
some large oak trees. I dismounted and allowed my horse to eat some grass while
I went inside. There was a little old women sitting over a glass ball. She told
me that she would be able to predict any and all problems I would have in the
future of this extravagant journey. But there only seems to be one. She looked
at me and said, “I don’t see many problems except one thing. There is a little
monster following you trying to make everything harder.” I took it for what it
was worth she then dismissed me from her home and told me to be on my way.
I mounted my horse and this time followed a
green and purple set of fairies. They lead me to this beautiful field of
flowers. I walked to the middle only to see this very handsome man standing in
there. He had blonde hair and blue eyes. “ Hi, I’m Jessica.” I said. “I am
James, its nice to meet you!”. I cant
lie, he had me hooked on the first words. I found myself falling head over
heels in love with someone who I just met by following fairies. All of the
sudden, a little monster comes hurdling towards me and punches me right in the
face. “No one will find you worthy to be their wife with such an ugly bruise”
the little monster hissed. I fell from my horse and hit the ground hard. James immediately
ran to help me. “I think it might be a good idea for me to join you on the rest
of your journey.” I nodded in agreement and he put me back on my horse and walked
at a swift face next to me.
Soon I saw a new
trail or fairies. These ones were orange and yellow. We were walking for a
while when all of the sudden my horse spooked. She reared up, knocked me off
and took of running. I then her a little voice hiss, “This journey will never
be accomplished without a source of transportation. James caught me and asked
me if I was okay. Physically yes, emotionally no! My horse that I absolutely adore
had just took off running and is no where to be found. Despite the set back, I sucked
it up and kept walking hand in hand with James. The fairies led us a large
castle.
We walked up to
the guard tower, where two very large men sat. We told them we were led here by
the orange and yellow fairies. We were welcome into the castle very graciously.
A man in a suit greeted us in the main room at spoke, “congratulations, you
have found your way to a new and better life. Here there will be no more
yelling, and no more chores that need to be done. I founded where I was
supposed to be and immediately broke down into tears. The suited man quickly
asked what was wrong. I told him, “My horse was spooked by a little monster and
is no where to be found, and I would give anything to have her back right now.”
The suited man had a thinking face on and said, “is the horse bay with a white
blaze?” “YES!” I exclaimed. The suited man led me to the barn where Nikki was
standing happy in a pasture enjoying some summer grass. “We found her running
loose and caught her” he said. “Thank you so much” I said.
I was able to
live a much happier life. I had James by my side and my horse in the barn
behind the lovely castle I now call home. I don’t care about my stepmother or
sisters. I am right where I am supposed to be.
