The Night and Day and The Story I cannot say

He was a beautiful creature, with such vibrant scales the colors of the ocean and a purple flower they were smooth and felt as if he were a snake, he was as kind as the wind on a nice calm day, and I wish he didn't have to leave. It was early that morning, I remember crying in my room, my aunt had passed away and I felt as if I were the last person on the earth she was the last bit of family I had, that actually cared anyway, my mother and father were always screaming at me and my brother he was never home, he was always in the woods with “that girl”, but the night my aunt had passed was the night “he” came.

I was cooking my aunts favorite dish a Sweet holiday pie, that was both of our favorite dish, her funeral that would consist of only black and gray it would take place later that night, when it was dark of course, My family never liked her they thought she put crazy things in my head when she was the only one to understand me. I was the rain to her bow and together we just went together.The night had come and it was time, I wore the brightest dress i could I wanted to be the brightest thing there I wanted her to look down from heaven and smile knowing that I loved her, but what happened was unexpected as I flew down the stairs I saw that no one was outside, which was odd because even though they didn't like her they wouldn't miss this, so I started to look around and there on the ground was an invitation to the grand party of the year, I that's when I realized they really were selfish, they would rather go to a stupid party than to say goodbye one last time.

After I walked around for awhile I started to think, think of how I would get back at them, and at some point, I must have wandered into the woods because when I finally looked up I couldn't even see the stars. I looked around and saw a large rock and saw on it for awhile, and suddenly heard a sound not scary but a slight tingling and I was interested so I followed the sound,and I soon found myself by a beautiful waterfall with these mint green lilypads and in that moment I felt like my aunt had lead me here, i felt like it was a sign that meant everything was going to be okay, after I looked around I heard the tinkling again and I looked around trying to figure out where is was coming from, after a few minutes I realized it was coming from inside the waterfall so I quickly stepped across the lilypads and ran through the waterfall, through the waterfall was a cave, a cave of gold that glistened like a fish in shallow waters. Then I saw something move it had the body of a dragon the face of a wolf and the colors of purple flowers and the ocean. As it ran away I followed it, It came across a turn that soon became a dead end. I looked back and thought where did it go I looked all around me and couldn't find it until I looked up and there it was the mystery creature, I stood there looking at it was so beautiful, it was astonishing. I finally broke the silence I quietly said hello and it made a chirping sound, and what formed from that simple hello was magical the next few years as I had aged I would visit the creature and we would talk and play and go on journeys that you would only imagine, a new relationship had formed the ordinary had soon become extraordinary. The creature was the sun so bright and she was the moon who still had a lot to discover.

It had been three years she had first encountered the creature who I had now given a name, Dallan, which meant wise. We would usually talk until dark and then I would go home but tonight seemed different I walked to the woods and felt as if someone was following me, I looked around and no one was there so I went ahead to the waterfall, and yet again I felt as if someone was following me so yet again I looked around and no one was there. I went through the waterfall to find that Dallen was asleep so cleaned up a little until he woke up, then we talked about our day and I told him I thought someone was following me, and just then Dallan had gotten up and went outside the waterfall. As soon as he went out I heard a loud screech it was as if someone's fingernails were on a chalkboard I ran outside to find this bright red liquid on Dallan,I realized it was blood, I looked around and saw my brother holding a gun and staring at me as if amazed, I began to cry and scream.Throwing anything I could at my brother, and yet he just stood there that blank look on his face. I ran over to Dallan and hugged him and told him I loved him he was my best friend and I would see him soon and wait up for me. After that, i ran until I couldn't run anymore. I climbed this huge tree with moss on it and it felt as if it had grips on it because “it” wanted me to climb it,when I go to the top I looked around it was beautiful as if I were a bird soaring across the ocean seeing all of the animals swimming by, but only this time I saw trees and the waterfall I even saw my home and I realized why I climbed the tree, why Dallan was shot, Why my aunt had gone, why anything and everything had happened, It was because this was life I no matter how much I wanted to change it I couldn't, I can't bring my aunt back and Dallan is gone the best things in life can go away but that's the beauty of it,” with every end there is a new beginning” those were the last things Dallan ever said to me and I understood them.

After hours of sitting in that tree, i soon came down. I walked over to the waterfall but to my surprise, Dallan wasn't there, instead, there was a tree with the

colors of blue and green and it had a door on it I opened it, and there was Dallan in the form of a flower so beautiful and mysterious but yet welcoming. I

didn't pick the flower, instead, I went home and acted like none of this had ever happened I climbed the long stair to my room and soon fell asleep on my

bed. When I woke up my aunt was there comforting me. Then I realized it was only but a dream.
