Mrs Everglades POV

--------------

"This adventure began with a 14 year old girl, her hair was sunset orange with emerald green streaks, her emerald green orbs seem to see into your deepest emotion, and her pale skin was scattered with freckles. Her name was Emerald." I said before continuing on with the story.

Emeralds POV

----------

I was walking through the woods, the greenery around me seemed to calm the nerves that seemed to be a daily occurrence for me, before I could realise what was going on I was knocked off my feet from what seemed to me was an invisible source.

I sat up to see a girl probably around 18 kneeling down her hair as white as snow was in a high side pony tail but still cascading to her hip. A small golden crown sat upon her head, a black lace dress and black lace gloves looked beautiful against her pale skin and her ice blue eyes shined in the dim moonlight with kindness. "Are you okay?" She said quietly as if not to startle me.

"I-I'm f-f-fine, b-but who are you?" I stuttered, fear taking over.

"My name is Snowdrop, and you are?" She smiled at me, with that small gesture my nerves seemed to dissipate, and I couldn't help but give a small smile back.

"I'm Emerald."

"What are you doing out here all alone?" She asked me, and begun looking around as if expecting someone to come out of the shadows calling my name.

"Um, I don't have any family." I said barely above a whisper.

She gave a small gasp before continuing. "But who has been taking care of you then?"

"No one for about 3 years, my parents just up and left when I was 9 then I was taken care of by some people but they did some sought of experiments on me to try and figure out my po- I mean well I don't know why, and they left when I was 11 or 3 years ago." Why did I tell her all that. I though to myself. Well she just seems like someone I can trust.

"Well do you know who your parents are? Maybe we could find them."

"I don't want to find those sorry excuses for family." I spat at her. "Besides, all I know is what they look like, I can't remember there names, who they were, not even their voices." I said and could hear the sadness in my own voice. I covered it up with a smile, I knew that she knew I was lying but she didn't say anything, and that soon slipped my mind as soon we became friends.

'I have some sought of connection with this girl, but how is that possible, I am some sought of freak of nature. I have powers, maybe even more than I know about. We can't possibly we the same . . . unless?'

"So, Emerald, what kind of things do you get up to?" Snowdrop asked, giving me a curious look, but there was something more behind it. Like she knew something but wanted me to admit it. But what could she know?

"What do you mean?" I said while raising an eyebrow.

"Oh you know, what kind of games do you know? Toys you play with?" She paused for a matter of seconds to face me before continuing slowly, as if telling me in a silent way 'I know you secret'. "What kind of things can you do that no one else can do?" I felt the blood in my veins run cold as her knowing glance became another smile. "You know, all that kind of stuff." How does she know? Wait does she know? Is it just me imagining it and she isn't actually saying that she knows anything, right?

Before I could question her, I started to feel a chill come over my skin, and the world around me seem to be moving too fast. "I th-think we should f-f-find somewhere to crash, I'm getting c-cold." I stuttered through chattering teeth.

"Don't even try to change the subject." Snowdrop replied angrily.

"No, I r-really, starting to feel dizzy." I say as everything in front of me becomes disorientated.

"I know something's up with you, are you a mutant?" She asks, her voice rising slightly.

"A mutant? I-is tha-" i can't seem to talk anymore as black dots my vision, I feel my head collide with something, soon all my senses are cut off as the world around me fades to black.

My eyes flutter open but are shut instantly as a bright light fills my vision and burns my eyes. A little while later I open my eyes and look around to be greeted by my wooded cottage, I sit up to see the stairs leading to the bedrooms and the dinning room set up around me as I lay on the couch. "It was just a dream." I sigh.

"What was just a dream?" I hear a voice behind me call, I jump in panic and raise my hands ready in front of me. But am greeted by a woman in her 30s, with straight brown hair cut just above her shoulders, a white shirt that ends just after her elbows, with a green vest buttoned up over top, a black shirt that ended around her knees, and green high heels. Her green eyes shining at me with kindness. I place my arms down and release a sigh before realising that someone was in my house.

"W-who are you? W-what do you want me? What are you doing in my house?!" I ask, my voice rising towards the end.

"It's alright, your friend brought you he- wait, your house?" She says, and I just nod.

"Hey how is sh- Emerald, your awake!" I turn to see the same Snow White hair from my dream along with the sane ice blue eyes, wait a minute.

"So it wasn't a dream?"

"What wasn't a dream?" Snowdrop asks.

"I really am free." I say to myself.

"Free? Wait a moment, you said that this was your house? Your the girl that went missing 3 months ago!" The lady shrieks. Oh fudge.

Okay well, I hope this sounds alright, just remember that if u read the original of this it is going to be changing a fair bit. Oh and the pic above is kinda snowdrop, I'm changing it slightly but I haven't drawn her yet, I'll also put the lady up soon.

Also I have a contest for y'all. Please make a cover for this story, you can look at the old book 'the mutants quest' to see what emerald looks like and what the old one looked like, but I want this one to be different and it can look however you want. PM me and we can find a way for you to show them to me and I will choose the best one, I want a cover up by the next chapter but there is no time limit for you to send them in. 😄

~suni out~ 😋🌞
