Chapter Five

"So, what do we do?" Lorissa and I are sitting in Blackwell Manor, half-an-hour later.
"I was hoping you would know. That's why I tracked you down."
Lorissa had grown up in Blackrain Forest, with the vast number of 'myths.' She had herd about a person (me) who sound a lot like her, so she had waited until out our clocks had reset, and befriend me as a 'human.'
'I do know one thing." I brush some dust of the fire place. "Well, three really."
"What?" Lorissa frowns
"Crap. We really need to fix up this place. And I need to meet the myths."
"You said it, agreed, and follow me." Lorissa turned into her Faerie form, ruining another perfectly good dress, a white one from the era we were born.
"Yeah, yeah. I'll fix it later." Lorissa could reading my mind, and only my mind, she was a Faerie. And vice versa.
Brings a whole new meaning to twin telepathy, huh?
I sigh and follow her. "Why are we approaching them as Faeries, anyways?"
"They know me. They don't know you. Aprproaching them as a
myth' is just better."
I flap my wings. "I am a 'myth.' Lets see....Half ghost? Myth. 1/8 Faerie? Check. 3/8 human? Check. I think that quailfys as a 'myth.'" I roll my eyes.
"You know what I mean."
"No, I don't."
"Yes, you do."
"No, I don't"
"Look, if you look at bit more like them, they might like you a bit better."
"What, you can't put a good word in for me?"
She stares at me.
I shut up.
For a long time, the only sound is the flapping of our wings.
"We're almost there." Lorissa thinks.
I sigh, and take a deep breath.
Time to meet the 'myths.'
