"C'mon Mona, don't let it go, get it" A Small voice screamed soon a giant white wolf was seen chasing a turkey.
Of course the turkey was no match for the huge wolf.
In no time the dead turkey laid on the floor bleeding
"Good girl." A hand patted its head.
Whose hand was that, EVA.
She's what human called impossible. A half angel and half demon. She was the both of them. Her long straight hair was scattered due to the running. The little dress she wore was already dirty. Her skin white, her bow shaped lip curved in a smile,her straight nose stood tall in pride,her blue-grey eyes shone in excitement.
"Oh Mona" She sighed "We're gonna have a great dinner, c'mon lets go"
She put the dead turkey into the little sack she held and threw it over her shoulder.
Strolling down the forest, her best friend,Mona walked beside her.
Growing up for Eva was so hard, she had no parents and was casted, why?
She was an unusual baby. She had wings, angel wings which she inherited from her mother.
At first, people thought it was a condition, until she started showing behaviors which normal humans didn't. Her eye color change with her emotions. If she were happy, it'll change to blue, if she were angry, it'll change to red. If she was sad, it'll change to yellow, if she was scared, it'll change to green.
She was indeed the impossible. King Phillip who was ruling at the time ordered for her to be casted into the forest and she was
For some reasons she survived. Guess mother nature favored her. She met a young pup, Mona. She grew up with her, they became good friends. Days turned into months and months turned into years
20 years had passed and she stayed into hiding.
Eva went to the village market most of the time to steal things she needed since she knew they wouldn't give her. She was so fast, humans only saw blurs and the next thing, their goods are gone.
This happened for quite something and they reported to the old king; King Phillip. He suspected that a mystic creature might be the one behind the sudden disappearance of things. The kingdom hasn't come across any mystic creature over the centuries. Except the one born twenty years ago with wings and color changing eyes.
A search team was formed to comb the forest for the strange girl but she hasn't been found. The search has been going on for four years, twice in every Months, Men from different families come together to conduct the search.
Eva and the huge white wolf arrived at the huge cave they called home.
"Go fetch the sticks Mona so we can make fire, I pluck the feathers off the turkey" she said to the wolf and it ran off.
Life wasn't so bad for them.
AT THE PALACE
King Philip sat on his royal throne. By his right, Queen Bethel and his left Lady Olivia. Those were his first and second wife.
The door to the royal court room open and the two princes were announced; Prince Andre, son of Queen Bethel and Prince Theo, son of Queen Olivia.
"Your highness!" They both bow.
"You may rise my sons" came the voice of the king.
"As you know, things have still been disappearing mysteriously and the only reasonable explanation for it is the strange girl we casted into the forest many years ago. The search team has found nothing over the years, this is why I have made a very important decision" He paused and took a deep breath
"I am getting old and I have to hand over the throne to one of you" he looked into the eyes of his two sons.
Theo, the first and oldest looked into his Father's eyes fearlessly. He stood tall and straight. His green eyes looked straight into his Father's blue one. That was Theo for you. He was as fearless as his Father was during his youth days. His black long hair was packed into a bun and his face cold and straight.
Andre on the other hand, couldn't look his Father in the eye. His gaze were on the floor, studying it like it was something special. Andre was the quiet type. He didn't like anything related to throne or battle. He wanted a simple life with no complications but instead he was born a prince.
The king sighed as he stared at his second son. He knew Andre, right from childhood hated thing like this but he isn't given a choice. He is a prince, it is his duty!
" Anyone of you who can put an end to the mysterious disappearance would be crowned as Crown Prince"
At the mention of Crown prince, Andre raised his head to stare at the old King.
Crown prince?
From the corner of his eyes he could see Theo smirking.
*******
"Okay Mona, stay here I'm gonna get the thing we need okay" Eva said to the wolf who barked in return.
"Good and I'm gonna get you a treat too".
She walked towards the village market, at a save distance where no one could see her.
She ran, She knew she was too fast for normal human to see her. She got to the first stall and took some new dress and blankets which she'd come to love as a result of its softness.
She also took some food which human called 'bread'. She took new slippers and some meat for Mona.
All these while, people only saw a blur. People who quickly saw it began to panic. Eva dumped everything she took into her sack and speed off.
"My breads, they're Gone!" A woman exclaimed
"My dresses!"
"My slippers!"
"My meats they're all gone"
"We must end this now, to the forest!" A man yelled holding his Axe.
He marched to the forest followed by a bunch of other men and women holding different weapons.
"Oh no Mona, they're coming for us run!" She climbed on the wolf with her sack and it sped off.
They stopped at a river to wash up. Mona changed into one of the dress she had stolen. It was really beautiful and reached her knee. She wore the slippers which was also stolen and brushed her hair with her hand.
She looked like a normal teenage lady except for the wings on the back.
She brought out the blanket and used it to cover her wings. Mona carried the sack in the mouth as they strolled back to the cave forgetting about the people who were looking for her in the woods.
Soon, Eva heard heavy stepped marching towards her. She then remembered the angry people looking for her. She began to run until she bumped into someone and fell. She looked up to see a man staring angrily at her. The is the first time she'd ever been close to a human. She held the blanket tightly to cover her wings.
"What are you doing all alone in the woods young lady!" A Tall man snarled
"You don't look familiar, Where do you live!" Another man said
"Hey that looks like my stolen blanket!" A woman yelled
"And those slippers too, they're mine!" Another woman yelled and Eva flinched
This was the first time she was being yelled at. She was frightened and Mona growled lowly beside her.
She tried not so show any emotion, she didn't want her eyes to change color in front of all these people.
"Hey, did her eyes just Change to green" A woman exclaimed
"She's a witch!" Another screamed
"Get my blanket off her!" The woman dragged the blanket covering her black feather like wings and it sprung up.
"Ahhhhhhhhh" The women screamed and one fainted. The men rushed to them and Eva and Mona took the opportunity to escape.
Eva picked up the sack and blanket and ran away with Mona.
"They're escaping!!"
"Don't let her escape, get them"
Soon heavy Footsteps footsteps followed.
"C'mon Mona run faster" Eva exclaimed seeing that she was running faster than the huge wolf. She knew her friend couldn't run any faster so she stopped.
She touched the tree beside her, concentrating all her heat on it, soon the tree caught on fire and fell, blocking the way. She looked at the spreading fire in sadness. She hated hurting nature and now she's burned down lots of trees.
She turned and started running away
The women were taken back to their houses. The men after stopping the fire marched to the palace.
"Your highness" they bowed in front of King Phillip in respect.
"Speak!" The king commanded
"Your highness, you were indeed right. We have seen her, the strange girl with wings, she still lives"
