The Hunted - Chapter One

[PROLOGUE] Today is my thirteenth birthday. Im so excited I'm finally a teenager! "Ari! Get your bathing suit on!!" Mother calls up to me. "Okay!" I shout. Im having a beach party. I slip into my bathing suit and sit on the bed to text my friends. My door opens and I look up to see Mother. In her hand is a diamond charm bracelet. I gasp and she slips it on my wrist, "It used to be mine. Now it is yours my dear." she says warmly. "Oh thank you mother!" I exclaim in delight and hug her. She pulls away and I look into her eyes. She looks sad. She leans close and whispers "I love you." but it seemed like she especially meant it this time.

[STILL PROLOGUE] (Time skip) I smile as I feel the soft sand in between my toes and I decide to go look for Mother and Father. "Mom?" I call out. I hear a scream and I start running towards her voice. I see my father standing over her and I think he's trying to help her. Then I see the knife. He smirks at me "Say goodbye princess." he says hatefully. I look at mother with terror in my eyes. "Run Aria! RUN! Run until you find your destiny. Then you will be free." she tells me. "MOTHER! Mother what do you mean?" I scream. "YOU CAN'T KILL HER!!" He smirks at me before driving the knife in her heart. And that is why I hate the beach.

Our "When Will I Die" Quiz?

  1. I look down at the letter in my hands. The same letter I have held a thousand times, I run my hand lightly over it. The paper has faded to a yellow-brown color but the ink still looks fresh and beautiful. I press the paper to my face and breathe in my mothers scent which smelled of lavender and vanilla. For the first time in a long time a smile is brought to my face. I pull the paper away and start to read the letter shakily. (Though I have practically memorized it.) "Dear Aria, our world is precious and you must fight for it. Do not destroy it. It is not the powers you have, it is what you choose to do with them. Remember, the charm is the key." By the end of the letter my voice has stopped shaking. I fold the paper crisply and put it in my bag as I lean against a tree. I breathe in deeply and smell the nice scent of morning rain and rosemary. Rosemary.... [FLASHBACK] I walk into the kitchen and smile as I see mother. "Mommy, what's that smell?" I ask with a giggle, it smelled good. She smiled down warmly at me, "It's rosemary Ari. It used to be your grandmothers favorite scent my dear." she moves swiftly to the counter, her skirt swishing back and forth as she walked. "Yummy!" I giggled.
  2. Raindrops hit my face as I am pulled out of the memory. I sigh and look up at the sky, the clouds darkening. "Here we go again" I mutter and grab my bag. I stand up and brush the slightly damp soil off of my clothes. I throw my bag up towards the top of the tree hoping it catches on a branch. Thankfully it does, but a very high one. I tilt my head before I start to climb up. I am tall and skinny so climbing trees isn't difficult for me. What bothers me is my hair. It falls down to my waist. I cuss under my breath as my long red hair gets tangled in the branches. "STUPID HAIR!"I scream, then look wildly around. I must admit I do have a temper. Finally I reach where my bag is, I get comfortable (But how comfortable can you be in a tree?) and close my eyes, letting the musical chirps of the birds lull me to sleep.
  3. My eyes fly open as sunlight streams on my face and I hear the voices of men. I jump up wildly and instantly regret it as I start falling. I flail my arms around trying to grasp any near branch, with no luck. I flip over to my side just as I hit the ground and I hear a loud cracking sound, I gasp in shock. Seconds later the pain kicks in and I start screaming as tears come to eyes. I've never broken anything and the pain was unbearable. I hear voices again but this time they sounded faint. I make out "Catch him! He's gotta be here somewhere." I clutch my arm and try to stand. "I need to get out of here.." I groan. I stumble forward and fall to the ground again. I close my eyes and let unconsiousness take over me.
