Chatper 1: Say Goodbye





The white snow was splattered with blood around the body of a fair haired woman with a bleeding, cut throat. The little girl with black curly hair sitting beside her was sobbing uncontrolably. The child may have been 6 or 7, but she knew that the woman on the ground; her own mother, was long gone from this world.



A black shadow materialized beside the little black haired girl, and when she look up at the new figure through he bright jade eyes, she simply said one word "hermano.?"



The black shadow became a young man with the same color hair and eyes as the little girl. He had perfectly scuplted features, a strong chin, aristocratic nose, and a warm smile that was mourning a loss.



"Yes. I know it's hard, but you must flee with me. Mother is dead because of the war, and they will want nothing more than to have us either dead or on their side," The boy said with a heavy spanish accent, "so come, Gabriella, we have to go now."



The young girl looked up at him, then gave her mother one last glance before she rose and took her brothers hand.



"Where we go, dani.?" She asked in a small voice with a accent like her brothers.



He look down upon her and smiled wryly at her, and then looked towards the sky.

"I honestly don't know, but our best chance is to run until we find a safe place."



Gabriella glanced at the deep purple sky that loomed over head. She sighed and held her breath so the on-comming tears wouldn't streak down her caramel colored skin. She prayed for the safe return of her mother to the Heaven she couldn't see.

The end of school bell rang, and the sounds of Colorado Springs Prepatory School students making there way through the schools brightly lite hallways and classrooms made the place sound like a swarm of excited bees.



"Bri.!" A red haired texan shouted to Grabriella as she walked out of her english 3 class. She waved excitedly to her friend as she started forward the red haired girl with the big blue eyes and freckles that dotted her cheeks.

"Hey hey Haileigh! How was biology? Someone said you had to dissect a frog." Grabriella said as she made a face of apparent interest.



Haileigh made a face of obvious disgust. "Ugh, that was the most brutal thing i think i've ever had to do. I got really sick. It would have been a lab you enjoyed however!" Haileigh said as she all but squeled the last sentence.
