Aria's POV
" Ughhhhh my head..." I clutched my forehead and sat up.
" ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" I feel like I just woke up from a 900 year nap. Wait did I ?! Nahhhhhhhhhh. I slowly opened my eyes, my eyes readjusted to the light. What happened?! I was in the hallow tree but so was someone else. Their eyes were staring right into mine.
" who are you?! "
" Wow, I'm good with messing with memories!"
" wha?! "
" you really don't remember me, Irene?"
" Nope! I'm Aria! I'm just a golden Dryad!"
" Shoot, what have I done..." Then he just ran off. What was that about? My names not Irene? I'm Aria, duh! -_- I slipped out of the tree and stood up. I wore a long green velvet dress. I don't remember putting this on. But at least I still had my golden hair.
" Lady Irene!"
" Honey!"
" Mommy!" Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa?!!!!!?!?!?!?!?!?!????!!!!! Three people ran up to me.
" Are you ok?! Clara said there was a strange man!" The man had Black hair and green eyes.
" Mommy, I'm sorry!!" Then there was a little girl with black curly hair, She also had Amber eyes.
" I'm so sorry! Lady Irene! This is all my fault!" I turned to the Woman. She had long red hair and Brown eyes. Like Maine.
" I'm sorry, I think you got the wrong person! I'm not Lady Irene, I'm Aria!"
" What did that man do to you this time?!"
" Who?!"
" The man! He's the Shadow lord!" The young woman said.
" Oh."
" I'm just glad your back in my arms." The Man said hugging me.
" AHH!! WHO ARE YOU PEOPLE!?!"
" You really don't remember us?!"
" NO IM NOT LADY IRENE IM ARIA!"
" Calm down Mommy, please." The little girl ran to me and hugged me. I felt a feeling of comfort wash over me and I hugged back. She dragged me over away from the man and led me out of the forest. We stood in front of a giant castle.
" Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa" she giggled. She dragged me into the castle and I was greeted by many people.
" Hello Lady Irene!"
" I'm glad your safe Lady Irene!"
" Would you like anything Lady Irene?"
" Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..." The little girl dragged me into her bedroom. It had bright lilac walls and white carpet. She dragged me to her bed.
" Mommy what happened?"
" Well it's a long story."
" I have time!"
" Ok then. Well one day I was running in the forest trying to run away from my kidnappers. I found a village. At first I thought they were nice but they were wrong. One man made my life like the nether. He hurt me and worst of all, he killed my best friend..." Tears were sliding down my cheek and I was clutching my bff locket.
" He loved me, or so I thought. Before I became the golden Dryad I had, strawberry blonde hair and dark blue eyes.
my facial features and hair changed when I became the golden dryad. When I took off my disguise in front of him, he begged for forgiveness. I didn't forgive him. He's done to much. It was to late."
" I'm so sorry Mommy! " I put her in my arms and I cradled her.
" Now tell me about you!"
" Well my name is Clara Aphmau, I'm 5 years old. I like lilac and cupcakes and ummmm I wanna be a explorer! Awwwwwwwww. That made my heart melt. I hugged her. I felt so safe with her. I don't know why. We both drifted off to sleep, with her still in my arms.
