The Ride

When we were on water for about 25 minutes I shook awake Raven and Bella.

“We need to go to the box that says Hay For Farms then we can sleep until morning” I say in a whisper. They all nod. Slowly and carefully I make my way out of the box. I left the sheepskin cause it has to stay in the box of clothing. Once I was out of the box I crouch down and wait for the rest of my crew. Slowly one by one they get out. Once they were all out I tiptoe to the box that says Hay For Farms and get in.

“Is everyone ok??” Tony asks as soon as we were all in. We all nod our heads. “I’ll take first watch.” he says after. We all nod again. Raven and Bella go right to sleep. Leo goes up and gives Tony a fist bump the retires to go to sleep. He must’ve thought I’ve gone to sleep because when I shifted he looked up quick.

“Tonia you need to go to sleep. You can’t stay up all night” he said relieved it was me not anyone else.

“I can’t sleep. I usually can’t sleep when I doing something this exciting.” I reply. He looks skeptical.

“If you expect to be able to have the strength to walk in the morning you’re going to need sleep.” he says demandingly.

“Ok so. Anyways, why did you come with Raven, Bella, and I back at the palace. And don’t even think about saying it was because I threatened you. I dare say it was something other than that.” I ask. He looks at me surprised, then his expression becomes guarded.

“If you must know I need to protect the royal family. It is my duty.” He replies.

“I extremely doubt that” I say raising my eyebrows.

“Fine. Ever since I saw you when I was 6 I liked you. Seeing that I could protect you was what I wanted to do. Then when I finally got the chance I saw that you snuck off. Leo and I followed you until it was remotely deserted to talk to you. Then when I heard that you were going off the island to look for a suitor I couldn’t bear the pain. Leo didn’t want to agree at first but he knew why I wanted to go. So he let me say yes. The least I can do now is protect you. I just wish I was royal so I could be one of your suitors.” he explained. That was honestly a blow to my stomach. He liked me. I could say he was kinda cute but I couldn’t marry him, he wasn’t royal and my dad wouldn’t allow me to do so.

“I am so sorry. Maybe you should get to know Raven, I bet you’ll like her alot.” I say sadly. He looks at me with sorrow nodding his head. He goes back to watching. Finally I snuggle down in the hay. Finally I fall asleep.

I wake up suddenly in a forest with the sun shining bright.

“Hey your awake Tonia!! You were right; we should’ve let you go to mainland. We are so proud that you are engaged to the prince of-!!” I look around and see my dad talking to Leo. Leo comes toward me with a smile. He kisses my cheek. I look at him in surprise.

“Do you want your wedding present early. I know you hate waiting especially when it’s two weeks away.” he whispers quietly in my ear. I look around in surprise. Raven’s smiling with Bella and they both give me a thumbs up. Raven mouths ‘I knew you and Leo would make a perfect couple!!!’. Bella nods in agreement. Then my eyes fall on Tony. He looks at me with pure disgust, jealousy, and anger. Leo leaves to talk to my parents. Tony walks up to me,

“You knew I was a prince to, Why didn’t you pick me to be your husband. I should’ve known you’d just use me to get closer to Leo so you guys could fall in love, get married, and have beautiful children.” he bitterly said. I felt even more confused.

“I’m getting married?”

“Yes idiot you are! And know I am going to have to kill you so Leo can’t have you!” Tony said in a whisper. He starts to draw out his sword then all of a sudden it goes through me. I scream loudly.

I woke with a start. Raven was on watch now but Tony was still awake.

“Tonia, Are you ok?? You were sleeping fine until 10 minutes ago then you started tossing and turning. You let out a moan then woke quickly.” Raven asked, quite concerned.

“Just a nightmare. Nothing much.”I reply. Tony looks at me concerned also.“I’ll take watch with Raven if that’s ok with you Tony.” I add after. He nods, and goes to sleep.

“What actually happened Tonia??” Raven demands.

“So Tony earlier confessed to me that he likes me. I said ok and said get to Raven, I bet you’ll like her. But in the dream him and Leo were both princes and I was getting married to Leo. He didn’t like it so he killed me. Then I woke up.” I explain. Raven looks like she’d been clonked on the head with a wooden club.

“That’s very bad!!” Raven says.

“What is bad?” I ask Raven wanting to know what's wrong.

“Before we go looking for your suiter today,we need to go to a peasant's house. I used to live here. I know where it is. I got deported to your kingdom cause I had no choice. If I am correct I think this is why your parents didn’t want you to leave Astora.” I nod ok.

“Change of plans then….. Deal!” I say.

  • The Island of Astora    Welcome to Anera

    I wake to the sound of a sailer calling “LAND AHOY!!” immediately I look around everyone was asleep. Bella fell asleep on watch duty. I shake awake the others but putting my finger to my lips so they’d stay quiet. As Raven starts to rub her eyes to wake herself up, we hear“Ok Britt, The box we will start with is Hay For Farms to get that out of the way, then we will have to get out all the other boxes slowly so we don’t have to do a lot of boxes.” a sailer said.“I agree with you Tindi.” said Britt I quess.“Alright then. Let's get started.” I think Tindi said.Quiet as ever we sat in the box full of yellow grainy hay. Soon later the box we were in got hoisted in the air. It started to move. The movements were quite jerky at first, then later got in a smooth motion. After 2 more minutes the box seemed extremely hot and had about no more air in it. Finally we get set down and I made sure I heard the slow scuffing of the sailors boots. I slowly opened the top of the box to see it’s day

  • The Island of Astora    Run in With the Royal Family

    As soon as we finished breakfast and payed 20 gold coins; which was overpay; the royal family of Anera came into the restaurant and everyone stopped talking and kneeled. Bella, Raven, Leo, and Tony knowing the drill kneels to the royal family. But I do not. They look around the room and their eyes settle on me.“Why are you still standing young girl?” The king asked “It is disrespectful to us.” his three sons shot angry glares at me and his wife looked at me in disgust.“I shall not bow down to anyone no higher nor lower than me. I shall show all respect in which is needed for you do not know who I am and can not and will not tell me what to do, when to do it, and how to do it. For after all you have no strength over me.” I reply. My father would’ve been proud of me, He always hated it when I did it incorrectly. But this time I look the Authority here in the eye. Gasps rippled across the room and the king turned angry“I have no need not to know who you are to make you bow down to me

  • The Island of Astora    Danger in the Woods

    We had been walking for about an half hour when we came across the woods we were supposed to go in but it has been an hour since the meeting with the royal family.“Honestly Raven, how much longer??”I complain. I’ve hated walking since I was 13. It’s such a waste of time.“A little longer.” she replies, “She hates her house being easy to find.”As we kept walking and I kept up my constant complaining in my head I hear a bird caw. I look up and see the most prettiest bird I have ever seen sitting on the branch.“Tonia, we have to keep walking if you want to get to wise grandma’s hut.” Raven said impatiently. “Fine, can’t I just see an exotic bird once.” I grumbled.We kept walking. Then all of a sudden I hear a crunch and whispering, I freeze. Someone was following us.“Tonia-aaa!” complains Bella. “How many times do we have to say this keep-”“SHH!” I say. “Someone is following us!”“I don’t hear anything” Leo accused, “So I highly-!!” Right before Leo could finish his sentence nets

  • The Island of Astora    The Ball of Elegance

    I run as fast as I can into the woods hoping no one is following me. What seems after 20 minutes of running I slow to a stop in front of a stream. I sit and take out a paper, quill, and ink. I start to write down words that came from the depths of me not knowing how I know them.5 teens shall run awayAnd enter a world where magic playsOne shall get them out aliveThe choices made shall be the driveThe prophecy!!! I just wrote down the prophecy without meaning to. I didn’t want my companions to find me but I don’t think I had a choice. So while I waited for them to find me I started to sing.“I said hey, hey, hey, you’re a part, of, me, I-”“Tonia!! There you are we have been looking for you all over!” Ravens says running up to me. I look into her mind‘Oh selfish brat. I wish I didn’t even have to work here. I should’ve just left her to die. Whoa, wait. That’s the prophecy she’s holding. I wish I could just stop pretending that I cared for her.’I pull out of her head and look at h

  • The Island of Astora    The Battle of the Castle

    Alexander starts to pull me toward his parents, but his grip slips when the crowd pushes around us. I look around me trying to find familiar faces but can’t. I slowly start to panic. What if my friends left me here because they didn’t like me or care for me at all? I went into a full blown panic attack. While I was trying to work through the panic attack, I didn’t realize that I had stopped walking and the ballroom had been emptied and doors had been locked. I looked around, and then froze as still as a statue.“You know, you are more trouble than your worth, Princess. Did you know that?” said a dreadingly familiar voice. I slowly turned around to see Sir Camelot right behind me. My full blown panic attack went even higher. And I went out of control. My body was in auto pilot, I was shaking so much my teeth were chattering, I was crying till I couldn’t see straight, and sounds of hysteria were ripping from my chest. As he crept closer and closer Sir Camelot raised his sword preparing

  • The Island of Astora    The Surprise

    It felt as if wind was flying through my hair, but it wasn’t cold at all. The hands the were on my waist slowly slide around me till I was in the males arms and they tightened their hold on me. My body was relaxing carefully as if there was any sign of danger I would go back into the full scale panic attack. I felt warm, I felt a sense of belonging - then I blacked out.“Tonia?? Can you hear me?” A ruff male voice startled me awake. I didn’t recognize it. Instead of answering I decided to do a full body check. Head… check, arms… check, legs and torso… check and check. I open my eyes and stare into a worried pair of forest green eyes. “Wh - who are you?” I managed to stutter out. The worry in the forest green eyes lesson. The male pulls back and reveals most of his face. “Come on, Tonia, you know who I am.” the ruff voice of this male. And indeed I did, it was Tony.“Tony? Is that you? What happened to your voice? And where are the others? But better yet, where are we?” I was disorie

  • The Island of Astora    Raven . . . is Royalty

    The chaos in the room suddenly ceased and Bella screamed. “Raven!! What happened to you?!” It was obvious that Bella was at the end of her string and about to go into a full blown panic attack. But before I could get a word out the princess said“There is no way she’s a fairy. I’ve never heard of a fairy being a late bloomer before. And also it is absolutely not possible that she could have royal blood in her.” Then, like a ton of bricks: when royal fairies get their wings at 8 years old, they go into cocoons the color of their wings. Having that knowledge on fairies, it all made sense. Raven's mother was human, so her late father should have been a fairy. And no ordinary fairy at that, a royal one. “That totally makes sense now,” I start, “Raven's mother, a human, died years ago and she never knew her father. Her mother said he died right after she was born.” The blood from the prince’s face slowly drained until he looked white as a ghost. “What was her name??” He asked hoarsely.

  • The Island of Astora    The Princess of Astora

    There once was a princess that lived on a faraway island. And That island was full of lush green forests, but very little farm land and civilization. The princess's name was Anatonia. She was very beautiful with long wavy chestnut hair that went to her knees, sparkling emerald green eyes with full black lush eyelashes that tipped off her full syrupy brown lips, and a warm tanned skin. Her mother, Queen Amera had jade black hair that reached just about her shoulder blades, warm honey brown hazel eyes with dark full lashes, with pale white skin, and light pink lips. Her father, King Albus, looked much more like his daughter. The same hair and eyes except with redder lips. The only problem to Anatonia’s life was that nobody knew she existed except on this island. She was anxious to get free and travel the world and see other kingdoms. There was only one problem with that her parents didn’t want her to go out in risk of exposing their island paradise to other kingdoms; so all in all they

    We quietly move along the leaves to get to the forest. Once we were at the forest we broke into a full sprint to the docks. Finally we slow at the edge of the forest where the docks are.“Alright guys, we need to get into Blue Jay inconspicuously. What is going to happen is we are going to get into the box that says Dresses For Royals and camp their till we are on board under deck. How we are going to get off is we are going to get in the box that says Hay For Farms. Once they put the box down and go back to get more, we get out and sprint till we are far enough away to look normal. Got the plan?” I say. Bella and Raven nod, they know most of the overall plan. But on the other side Leo and Anthony look skeptical. “Do they check the boxes before??” asks Anthony.“No they have already done that a hour ago. The ship leaves in 25 minutes we need to get in the box.” I reply. They all nod in agreeance. Quickly Leo runs out and gets in the box. Anthony makes sure it is clear then runs out
