Follow your Dreams: September 14
I am sitting in a coffee shop alone trying to get Carrie to answer her phone. She normally always answers her phone but not today.
Hey Carrie? Are you there?
Carrie????
No answer… I hope everything is okay…
Charlie texted me…
Blair? I need you to come to 5th street. Right now, hurry!
I hurried quickly to 5th street as fast as I could go. When I got to 5th street I looked around for Charlie, but I could not find him anywhere. Two seconds later I heard a blood curdling scream. I dashed towards the scream hoping it was not Charlie. Much to my disappointment I found Charlie on the ground in an alley, his head had an awful gash on it, blood was running everywhere. I gasped. I never knew that I would feel this way about Charlie, in my heart I felt a deep burning passion and love for him.
“Charlie?”
“Blair? He went that way…”
“Don’t you dare think for a moment I am going to leave you here.”
“Please go get him so i can kill him”
“No, let's get you somewhere where you can rest, you lost a lot of blood.”
“No, no, no please.”
“Char, please, listen to me.”
Charlie listened to me… it took a while to convince him, he did listen though. I took him to Chelsea’s house, I was welcomed there anytime, I knocked on the door. Chelsea answered, her face turning pale when she saw me struggling to keep Charlie upright.
“Blair? What is going on?”
“I don’t know… I heard him scream… I found him and brought him here.”
Chelsea seemed to turn paler than she was before. Something was up I knew it.
“Chel… what is going on?”
“Blair, not now, okay? He is losing blood fast.”
I jumped into action,grabbing some hot water and a cloth to dab on his head. Chelsea made me leave the room a few times… the funny thing is… whenever I came in Charlie looked so much better.
“Chelsea what is going on?” Chelsea didn’t seem to notice the surprise on my face, Charlie was just on the ground about to die, and then I leave and boom, he looks so so so much better.
“CHELSEA!”
I yelled I could not contain my anger. Chelsea looked up and smiled
“I know it's weird.. You know you are not the only one with powers right?”
Wait what, I am not the only one with powers? What is she talking about? I thought I was the special one… aren't I?
“What are you talking about?”
“Blair… Sit down, let me explain everything to you.”
I sat down not sure what to expect… Why did I never know about this?
“Blair… Charlie, me, Emily, Carrie, and Steven all have powers. It's not just you, It's all of them, all of your friends. There are many more people like us who are a part of the Flowan warriors… Nobody knows about them, just the people with powers. I know this is a shock for you… but you have to understand, it may take awhile but it was the rules that... that I, and everyone else in my level, was given.”
“Woah hold up! Now there is a thing called the Flowan Warriors? I am not a warrior! I am the girl who can disappear, I don’t have friends- I mean I don’t have a lot of friends, I am not a social person, I am the weirdo of the town! Of the whole world! I like being me! I don’t want everyone to know about me! I don’t want to be a warrior!”
Chelsea looked understanding and gave me puppy dog eyes.
“Blair look, let me show you everything.”
“NO!”
I yelled and jumped up and ran out of the room. There was no way I was going to let Chelsea talk me into something so… not me. I firmly believe that people should be themselves and not change for anyone. You are your own person, love yourself.
“WOAH COME BACK!”
Charlie said jumping up from where he had been sitting, I never knew he could run so fast, Charlie was by my side in like two seconds. How he did that I don’t know- Oh wait that's probably his power speed. Charlie scooped me up and began to fast walk back to Chelsea.
“Let me down! What is your problem! Put me down!”
I began to kick and scream and tried to get out of Charlie's strong iron grasp.
“When did you get this strong?”
“I was born with this strongness… the question you should be asking is ``How did you learn to control it?”
“OH that's funny Charlie.”
“I know, I am the funniest person ever!”
“Oh hush!”
“As you wish”
Charlie brought me back to Chelsea, she was sitting there smiling
“Couldn’t beat him in a race?”
“Chelsea!”
Chelsea and Charlie both laughed as if it was the funniest thing ever. It’s not funny though it's annoying don’t they get that?
“Guys what is going on? Would you please tell me? Or I will disappear and run away!”
Chelsea and Charlie looked disappointed like I had messed up there fun.
“Well Blair… The Flowan warriors are a tribe… well there are three tribes. The first tribe is- The Strong Skeleton Warriors, The White Dragon Tribe, and The Steel Warrior Hawk”
I have no idea what they are talking about, so I answer them how any other person would answer them.
“What are you talking about? Are you sure you are okay?”
“Yes, we both are okay, you need to listen to us, okay”
“Fine, I’ll listen.”
I crossed my arms and glared at Charlie… and Chelsea.
“There is another world called Flowan, in that world are the Flowan warriors. There are three tribes, I just named them, Each tribe has a leader. Every person has power, some people even have more than one power. You would probably be in White Dragon. Everyone looks and acts somewhat like you. You will fit in fine.”
My mind felt like it was about to explode. What the heck is going on? A whole new world with people like me?
“W-what? You all are crazy and what is wrong with you two.”
I jumped up and tried to go through the door. Sadly Charlie grabbed me, and we… I guess disappeared.
When I opened my eyes there were mountains and ponds. It was beautiful, but I don’t want to be here. I sat up and saw a bunch of people around me. I was surrounded by people like me. Is this where I get sent to? Are we really this unbearable we have to be sent to this awful place. A boy walked up to me. He had black hair, although it looked like he dyed it, he looked like he was about 5’10. He was wearing black ripped jeans and a white and black striped shirt, and his shoes were a checkered van. I looked up at him and smiled,He was wearing black eyeliner, for sure this was my type of guy.
“Hey, I’m Nico, welcome to White Dragon.”
His smile was breathtaking.
“H-Hi I’m not sure what I’m doing here… but I guess I’m in White Dragon.”
“I am glad you will like it here. You look amazing in your new body. I almost wonder what you look like in the actual world.”
I was very confused on what Nico was saying until he handed me a mirror. I was freaked out, I had short choppy black hair, it was also streaked with gold, and I Had Purple…. EYES!
“WHAT JUST HAPPENED TO ME!!! WHY AM I LIKE THIS!”
I spun around to find Charlie looking at me with an amused smile. He had blond hair, water blue eyes and white skin. I was filled with anger. I stooped down and grabbed a rock. I threw it at Charlie. It went straight towards him, but he didn’t even move, it went straight through him.
“What was that for,Blair?”
“Why did you bring me here? Why didn’t you tell me this would happen to me?”
“You wouldn’t listen, remember?”
“Don’t make this about me,Charlie! How dare you even think about making this about me.”
“Fine then, I will take you back to the actual world.”
“Thank you.”
“Well my dear friends, I am afraid your new White Dragon warrior is leaving you. She will most definitely come back; she just must not be ready.”
Nico and a few other girls and guys came over to him and hugged him and laughed.
Charlie took my hand and just like nothing happened I was back in Chelsea house.
“What just happened?”
“You know Blair, don’t stress it.”
“Charlie, w-what are-”
“Blair, you were wanted there.”
“No, I was not.”
I turned and walked out the door leaving Charlie and Chelsea alone together. I don’t care that I like Charlie and so does Chelsea. I just want to get out of there. My mind was still on Nico.
Love,
Blair
