Evolving Resentment
“Your task is to protect a human named Emira Glacier with your life. If you fail, you’re banished from the Elken Kingdom.“
My task is my life. If I fail, I fail my boss, my mother, my siblings… Everyone. But, this kid is a SEVENTH GRADER. Who’s going to be going after a seventh grader? And why would they pick me? I’m just a 16 year old, I mean, there’s so many more elkens that could do it… Maybe they want to get rid of me—No, no they like me!…right?

“Lavender, here’s the gateway to the human realm. Take Lumix with you. She will help you through the realms. She’s apart of the Luma species.” Belladona said, bowing her head at me. “good luck.” She added in a mutter. “Thanks.” I said, not very enthusiastically. Belladonna wasn’t always my favorite person to work with, but she never picked on me, so that’s something. “Yeah, whatever.” She mumbled, rolling her eyes and leaving. “Hi, Lumix.” I chuckle. It made like—A squeak, I guess? “How does this work.. Take me to the human realm?” I question. Belladonna really didn’t say clear instructions.
Before I knew it, I was pulled between what felt like galaxies. Then I was falling in the sky down by a grubby building in a garbage bin. “Yuck!” I groan, flicking some trash off my horns. “I look really different from humans.. “ I realized. How would I fit in? “Lumix, can you help me? Cover my horns and tail somehow?” I asked the luma. Suddenly, it spun around, and my horns and tail were gone! Along with my white faded purple hair, which turned into a brown. My clothes turned into a nice shirt, and some shorts. “Thanks! Time to find this human…”
I walked up to a school house with children sprawling out the entrance. I spot Emira, then also realizing I look about like a seventh grader now. Thanks, Lumix. I walked up beside her. She had a handbag with the word “GUCCI” on it, along with high boots and a blue crop top. “Wow. That’s a look.” I murmur. “Hi. I heard your name is Emira, right?” I said in a friendly tone. She looked at me, popping the gum she had in her mouth. “Uh, sure. Call me Em, for gosh sake.” Em spat, rolling her eyes. Oh gosh. This better not be another Belladona. “Now go away, dweeb.” She yawned, making another gum bubble again. Yup. This was another Belladona.
(Heyo! I’m kinda running out of time, and I know I didn’t really get to the topic much, but I’ll continue this if it goes good! Thanks for reading my work!)
