Hey, I’m going to write from 1st person for Amberley and Emberyn because I need to work on that.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

EMBERYN’S POV

I wasn’t sure what to think of this. Where were we, who were these people, and why were we here? Amberley probably had many of the same reservations as I did, but she was better at hiding it, which was no surprise. After the surgery when she was seven, and the several months in the hospital after her accident when she was twelve, Am had become a pro when it came to hiding her emotions.

“Do you live here?” Amberley asked, getting straight to the point. “If you do, or you know the person that does, why did you bring us here?” She stared at them, almost glaring. The gold flecks in her eyes seemed to shimmer brighter, and I saw Janner and Leeli’s gaze drawn to them slightly, then they stiffened(1). “No miss Amberley. I reckon we’re just as lost as you are.”

Amberley relaxed slightly, and sighed. “Sticklebats(2). I hoped you might know the way out of here.”

(1) Fangs have yellow eyes, and the whole thing takes a little bit too much explaining for a footnote, but Kalmar got turned into a fang at the end of the 2nd book (it will be explained later in this story how he turned back) and while his eyes were yellow he didn’t know who he is, but most of the time his eyes were blue, flecked with yellow, which <i>symbolized the fact he was partly a fang, so I figured it would make them uncomfortable when they realized the Fletcher siblings have gold flecks in their eyes.</i>

(2) Lord of the Rings (movie) easter egg. Bilbo says it when Frodo isn’t there to answer the door for him. Fun Fact: I use this word (it kinda’s a word…I guess) a lot when I’m annoyed.

Anyway, 9:36pm where I am (I know, I know, I really should not be on SE this late, buttt…. I enjoy writing on here) so I need to get off. Wanted to get to Am.’s PoV, but didn’t have enough time.

Bon nuit et au revoir! (I’m learning french, so I thought I’d use a little on here. It means good night and bye.)
