Poor Little Partridge

[♥justmeandmyself♥]

Poor little partridge tangled in a tree, flutters up her feathers but she can’t get free…

I let out a scream as I tried sit up, I could feel arms around me…holding me down.
“Wake up Valeriana! You’re having a nightmare!” Verda, my mum, told me, shaking me awake. I started sobbing, why? Why me, there’s so many other people out there! Why me?!
“Don’t cry big sis! Don’t cry!” I heard a small voice near the end of the bed; I looked at the voice and saw my baby sister Veronica. It took me a few seconds to realize that I made my little sister cry, but that only made me sadder…how could I? I made my own sister, who was only 4 and half years old, be sad and start crying! I’ve never made her cry before!
“Valeriana, are you ok?” My mum asked me, stroking my strawberry hair softly.
"Y-Yeah, I'm fine..." I stuttered. Verda gave me a look that said "You can't fool me Valeriana."
"I better get ready for school." I muttered, my mother nodded and picked up Veronica. As she closed the door after walking out I looked at my arms, they were scratched and there were black feathers on my pillow.
"Oh no..." I whispered and looked at the window, it was open...again.
"But I closed it!" I said.
I must of left it open, maybe I forgot to close it...or mother opened it...I told myself and stood up. I grabbed my clothes –there’s no school uniform at my school- and put it on. I rushed down stairs and saw the time; good...I have an hour until school starts. I made some toast and ate it on the way to school.
"Hey, Valeriana! Wait up!" I heard a voice calling out at me as I reached the school gates. I spun around and saw my best friend, Violet.
"Wha'up Valeriana? You look like you've seen a’ ghost!" Violet asked me.
"I already had my mum be like that, I don't need my best friend to be the same!" I shouted at her and ran away. Violet just stared, what did she do? She shook her head and looked at the floor where I was before I ran off, there were black feathers there. Violet ran towards the science room –Her and I were in that room when they bell goes off- and grabbed me by my shoulder.
“Valeriana…are you ok?” Violet demanded, I shook her off and walked away.
”Valeriana!” I heard a voice behind me, someone touched my shoulder and I spun around.
“Look, I’m s- Oh! Who are you?” I asked, confused.
“Me name’s Vara.” The boy in front of me said. He had black hair with a tint of silver-grey in it with a black top, black trousers, he also had a long flowing black coat –leather-, big black boots and finally he had long black gloves.
“Hello…Vara. Are you new here? I haven’t seen you before.” I said to Vara shyly.
“Yup, I need someone to show me the school…Will you be able to show me Valriana?” Vara asked me softly. I let out an mmm, I hoped he took that as a “yeah, sure” or I may be on the bad side of him.
“O-oh, If you don’t want to then you could’ve just said that instead of just an mmm.” He said, sounding hurt but his eyes had anger in them. He started to walk off.
“NO! I mean, I didn’t mean it like that!” I called after him, I had to quickly grab onto him before I completely fell over.
“So, you’ll show me around Valeriana?” He asked, pulling me up so I didn’t slip from the rain.
“Sure, but…how did you know my name? You’ve said it twice and your new…you wouldn’t know my name.” I murmured.
“Little birdie told me…” He answered in a whisper; pulling a black feather out of my hair…it must have been there since I went out of the house. I watched as he dropped it and then he grabbed me arm.
“We going then?” He muttered and pulled me to the door going into the school.
“Yeah..." I whispered. I showed him around the school, even though it seemed he already knew what room was which. He was in most of my lessons; the only one he wasn't in was P.E.
"So, that's all...and its lunch now, we both got...science next." I told him, he nodded and I started to walk to the lesson.
"Valeriana, who's that new person?" Someone asked me, racing up...it was Violet.
"Oh, him...his name's Vara, his new here: I've been showing him around." I told her, shrugging my shoulders and then walking off.
"Valeriana, wait..." Someone different shouted out to me from quite far away, they touched my shoulder and I turned around.
"Hey Vara, weren't you just over the other side of the field?" I asked, shocked.
"I-I'm...very fast...” Vara mumbled and dragged me into science.
“Ah, Valeriana Santai…who is this?” My teacher called out, I noticed everyone was sitting down and looking at me.
“This is V-“ I got interrupted as Vara stood forward.
“Me names Vara Stolen sir.” Vara said boldly.
Vara Stolen…huh! Violet’s last name is Stolen too! I thought to myself, I’d have to ask Violet about that later.
“WHAT! That’s my last name!” I heard a voice from the door; Violet raced into the room and faced Vara.
“You stole it! Everyone’s stolen my stuff, my books, stuff from my house and my first name! Why steal the only thing I got left to myself?!” She stuttered, Sir –his name’s Mr. Virote- sighed and told Violet to sit down, she started sobbing and ran out the door.
“Violet!” I called out and started to run to the door, but then I heard someone say something. I turned around and saw Vara looking at Violet as she ran away.
“I recognize her…” He whispered. Then Mr.Virote told us to sit down –told Vara to sit next to me…eek, the strange new boy who recognizes my best friend has to sit next to me! Ugh, what could go wrong? - And he carried on with the lesson.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Don’t you just love it when the ‘end of the day’ bell? Especially when you have to sit next to the strange new boy who re- oh wait, I’ve already said that haven’t I? Anyway, It’s the next day and I’m pretty freaked out right now…I keep on seeing things…I mean, I see something and then a few seconds after it happens…I don’t know what’s happening to me. Am I going crazy? It all happened after he came…I wonder if he would be in today. He was acting strange last time…

I walked to school, thinking about what was going to happen this day. I got into school and checked my watch, damn…I was so late! I realized that there was people crowded around somewhere, I wandered over to look at what had happened. I heard someone crying out in help...why wasn't anyone helping that person, only falling over eachother to see what it was? I realized it was Violet and I let out a growl and pushed my way towards her, I saw she was trapped under a...wait, was that a CAR?! What was it doing HERE?
"Violet!" I gasped, tripping over to get to her when I tried to get to her. I stood up and bit my lip, how were we going to get this car off her? I saw Vara suddenly here...seriously, how fast IS he?!


Started this quite a few years ago, but never carried on with it, probs wont carry on with it.
