Write a poem about the peacefulness of a mountain at dawn.
Wuthering Heights
Part 2:
Alaina was horrified, and this time I couldn’t blame her for being scared because this time I was too which rarely happened nowerdays. How were we ever going to overcome this without Mom and Dad? I squirted out to get a better view, a large swarm of bees? Wasps? “Pixies! And… Giants? Is this some sort of fairytale forest?” I shrieked, shocked and angry. They must have been there the entire time waiting for our parents to leave us on our own! Question began pouring into my head, I could hear my blood rushing past my ears. How long had they been there? What did they want? Why did they want it? Why would you want to wait if that was me I would have got by now, but then again why risk it when you know nothings going to happen buecause your opponent knows nothing about your presence. Being quick thinking as I was I said braver than I knew I was, “We have to get Mom and Dad cell service is down we have to escape and get to them before those things do,” I waved my arm at them carelessly.
She nodded, “ But how? Didn’t you switch this l place into lockdown mode or something,” she quickly got over her fear and transformed. I gestured her to tiptoe after me to a meeting too that was fully protected and concealed.
“Um, so lets think, Mom and Dad still have their earpieces don’t they? Couldn’t they use those rather than us getting caught in that mess? Wait, that would only work if they were wearing there suits wouldn’t it,” I moaned collapsing onto the sofa.
Alaina looked deep in thought then spoke looking thoughtful, “ Can’t they track us?”
I jumped up, “ I’ll send our whereabouts and plans so they can lend us a hand or monitor us.” She offered her fist and I pumped it feeling truiphant with myself.
We both walked towards the window peeking out through the thick curtains knowing what would happen if we left our home veryhting would rea,in camouflage but us unless we upgraded. I took of my gear handing it to Alaina though I knew I could have done it on my own she insisted on doing it as I sent the information to our Parents. Praying they wouldn’t be facing there own problems at the moment. After at least half an hour she cried proudly “ Done! Oh and I added lasers and now we can fly! Because of jets on our boots there different settings here,” she pushed the bundle into my arms, “Try it,” I smiled knowingly, she wouldn’t ever stick with the bare minimum. Moments later I wa soaring through the air and standing on the ceiling! She had added so many different settings! “WOW! This is great! Lest give it a try on the battle field shall we?” Raising up to her height we linked arms and continued to nover onoy several inches of the ground. She whispered just as we left through the back door, “Tap your earpiece twice and whisper camoflauge to blend in with your surroundings,” I nodded in acknowledgement doing as she said, and wasn’t at all surprised that I couldn’t be seen in any way.
We flew off at the speed of sound and could neither be heard nor seen. Once we were high above all of the coming chaos Alaina passed me what seemed like a motorcycle helmet and said “There are different settings on the lense put thermal and muffle proof just to make sure we aren’t heard,” I gave her a quick thumbs up and did as I was told.
Just as we escaped the last of the Giant’s troop I realised something and dropped down and saw that, they were fakes? All of them, they were robotic cosplays! I beckoned Alaina to follow me and said, “ If we reveal ourselves, we can find out who is really behind this, these are fakes all of them are robots are you with me?” Alaina nodded knowingly it was to late to be afraid, to late to stop. Plus Mom and Dad knew where we were so what’s the harm being done? I took off my Camouflage and Alaina followed I shouted desperately as a Giant spotted me, “ Oh, no! It’s spotted me! Wait what if we don’t get put in the same place! Alaina! A little help please!” Her eyes widened in horror and she grabbed my hand as a Giant’s long metal arm wrapped itself around my waist hoisting me down and I watched as my sister was hurled away by another Giant. What of the cosplays had our parents? Well I guess there was only one wash to find out. Wait, who was that? A young man? He looked familiar, he stood on a large wooden box. “WHOAH!” I yelped as I was roughly brought to the ground and watched as a Pixie, flew towards me, wait what? It dropped a, a, metal chain? You had got to be kidding me.
The next thing I knew I was thrown into a golden rimmed carriage it reminded me of Cindella when I was younger, I found myself face to face with that young boy again he began to ask my questions,
“ Who are you?” He asked
“ My name is Maya, who are you? I asked looking suspicious
“I’m Dylan and my sister and I…”
“Sister?” I interrupted
“Yeah, she’s younger than me her name is Arabella,” he said vaguely
“ Anyway, why are you here?” I asked
“We live in a treehouse not so far away from here looks a,lot like that one,” he pointed to our own,
“How can you’re see that? That’s my home I love with my Mom and Dad there with my twin sister, only our family can see that, her show me tha marking?”
He did so.
“Thats out family crest!” I gasped, “ Hold on I know who you are your Dylan, my cousin Dylan!”
“Oh, and I’ve heard of you too! Cousin Maya and wait where is Alaina?” He gushed
A gruff voice broke out through the carriage, “Got ourselves another one master,”
I squealed “Alaina! This is cousin Dylan remember?”
“Oh, hi, um can anyone by chance get this off of me?”
“Sure come her,” Dylan replied after he loosened the chain of mine I pulled my hands free and felt my eyes brighten. Just as Alaina was let free a girl left in through the dangerously open carriage door, and brushed her her chestnut hair out of her hazel almond eyes. I smiled recognising her instantly, “ Arabella, it’s me, Maya, and Alaina,” she grinned and Doug her arms around us. After a while we broke off and began to discuss a way to overthrown Arabella and Dylan’s father, the owner and leader of this attack.
“What are they even looking for?” I asked half knowing the answer already,
“He wants your powers,” He replied wearily, this confirmed my thoughts.
Arabella sighed,”He is going to want to test you in his lab,”
Alaina looked at me and I mischievously smiled back at her,
“Then why not strike then, you guys can come along too” she guest urged to Dylan and Arabella.
“Does you father happen to have any roof windows?” I asked.
“Yeah, oh I got you,” Dylan answered knowingly nudging Arabella who had caught on quickly.
“It’s go time!” we cheered quietly still not wanting to attract any attention.
