This is something for Lol. I've kinda been ignoring her and this is to make up.
Shelbi's POV
The African breeze calmed me. After days of fearing for myself, I can finally be calm. I can finally be free.
It seemed like only a few hours when I first met Maria...
I was simply sitting on the plane, watching the clouds as they floated by. Ever done that? Just watchin' clouds...?
Anyway, my left ear was bugging me, so I took out the earring. I touched the smooth, silver, metal as my eyes trailed over to Da. His cowboy hat was trailed down over his eyes as his mass of pepper hair trailed down to his shoulders. Mum was on his other side, sleeping soundly.
Suddenly, the plane made a dip. I quickly grabbed onto the seat in front of me, making me drop the earring. I glanced out side and stared at the wing. Fire emerged from it as the clouds were soon dark gray.
I did what anyone who was scared to death would do. I closed my eyes...
Flying. That's how I felt. as if the clouds around me where helping me fly.
I opened my eyes and simply stared as the earth before me seem to come closer and closer. I blinked and, before I knew it, I was standing. I didn't know what happened. I just...standing. On the earth.
I heard a growl and blinked as I turned. A cheetah hissed before he pounced. Quickly thinking, I rolled so the cheetah hit the ground.
I got up and ran...
I triped. I groaned and looked over at the great cat that soon to eat me.
I waited...
And waited...
Finally, I opened my eyes.
I don't who she was or how it happened. But...Maria had saved me. For that, I owed her...
Maybe that's why I've been so tense lately. I barely know this Maria, yet, I owe her. I learned a long time ago that, when you owe someone, you better know 'em.
I glanced over at the Tommy Gun I had got that same day. Found it.
I'm the omega of my family. For years, I've been trying to prove to all my relatives that I can take care of myself. I can do anything. Shelbi Linn Smith, rebel and pirate of the Smith Clan, that was me.
I always felt proud when someone would brag, but I felt jealousy rise when they mentioned my half-brother. He wasn't even in the same clan, yet, they spoke of him.
It made wish he was dead...but, then again, wishes never come true.
I heard footsteps. I quickly took the Tommy Gun and aimed it. My eyesight never left the moving grass until I noticed it wasa hyena. Brown eyes with a moon above her right eye. Maria.
I lowered my gun and glanced over at the sunset.
"What are you doing here?" I asked, harsher than I ment.
"Just came to see the view." she smiled and sat.
For once, I realized that life isn't asking me to be some kind of hero to my clan. It's asking me to enjoy life.
So, as I watched the sunset, scratching Maria's ear, I did enjoy it.
For Lol. Hope ya like it.
