Secrets of the Woods--Part 2

Marina leaned down and hugged her horse lovingly. Glacia nickered at Marina happily and Marina giggled. It had been over a month that she'd been stuck in the mortal realm. In all that time she came to rely solly on her pets to make it through the monotanous days of "living". How did mortals do this day in and day out? She found it dreadfully dull, and longed to play on the waves as she used to.

Suddenly Quatica began sniffing the ground fiercly. With a snarl she ran off through the woods. Marina was tempted to follow but instead shrugged it off, as was her carefree nature, and took Glacia for a ride.
Quatica ran headlong through the woods after the strange scent. It was an intruder, she knew this. She was going to rip them apart and keep her mistress safe as was her job. The trees broke and she zoned in on the smell's source. Before her stood a huge male dog with a thick spiked color. They locked eyes and he began to growl. She returned it with more ferocity and snapped her teeth at him, hackles on point. She took a step towards him and he seemed to sense it'd be a losing battle for he turned and fled.



The dog ran through the woods barking excitedly as he almost collided with his master on horseback. The horse snorted and his master smiled.
"What's going on Hunter?" He asked. The dog continued to bark and turned to lead him back to where the dreaded wolf was at. His master looked confused at first.
"Come on Hunter there's nothing good in those old woods." He said shaking his head. The dog persisted, so he relented and followed slowly.



Weaving in and out of trees, Dimitri followed his faithful dog. He yawned somewhat bored with the ride. He'd lived in these woods his whole life and had yet to see more then a few wild animals, which he hunted. Never in his wildest dreams did he think that when he'd enter the small clearing hidden in the deepest part of the woods, that he'd encounter a creature more beautiful then he'd imagine. The trees broke and Dimitri blinked his eyes rapidly. A horse the color of the sea stood next to the pond while a strikingly beautiful white wolf stood on the other. Between them he saw what appeared to be a scantily clad blue elf or something, gathering water from the pond. The figure turned and his green eyes locked with her piercing deep blue ones immediatly. He knew it then and there....he'd found her. His mission would be complete.

Secrets of the Woods Part 1

 She was born of the water. A princess in her own rights. She roamed free playing on the waves, like a child on a playground. A thought never crossed her innocent mind that anything could change....but it did. She disgraced her family horribly and for that her father punished her. It pained him to do so, to lose his only daughter and heir...but he said to her, if she could prove herself worthy, in time he'd forgive her. So she was sent to the mortal world through a portal in a small pond that stood alone in the woods. Marina didn't fear this new world, she embraced it as an adventure, though she begged for her father not to send her alone.



He gave in and in his hand he fashioned a beautiful horse straight from the waves. She rose from it's depths and went to Marina peacfully. Happy to have her as her companion.He then gathered some sea foam and fashioned from it a beautiful wolf to be her protector and companion. He said she would be loyal above all others and keep her safe.




Marina started work on her new life. She found some rocks and turned them into a fire pit, then fashioned a swing chair out of wood and leaves. The forrest was happy to give her the help she needed for without water they could not survive. She'd bless each living thing around her and soon the little glade that became her home flurished beautifully. However even with the beauty that surrounded her, Marina began to feel the mortal world closing in on her. Little did she know that her adventure had yet to truly begin......For the woods held more secrets then just her. There were terrible, dark secrets she would soon uncover. She'd soon be fighting for her life and the lives of those she loved.




This is my first time creating a blog for my story.
I hope to get better as time goes on.
