Lost Journal Entries

Shaquina and Darius went exploring in the East wing of the House of Hybrids in Norvajak. They came to a room that was so cluttered that they could barely find a path to walk through. They walked carefully until they got to the center of the room where it was empty except for a single desk. Shaquina walked up to the desk as Darius looked around confused.

“I wonder who these papers belonged to?” Shaquina asked as she grabbed a stack of papers.

“I don’t know. Read the first paper, Shaquina.” Darius said as he looked around.

Shaquina read the first couple of entries in a row.

“Year 1: Day 30,

In the tower of the East Wing of The House of Unicorn Hybrids. It was crazy out there today. I don’t know how long I can last without food. There is water but I need to find food, and soon. I can make the food last probably 2 weeks until then, I must ration it out. Be careful out there. If I remember correctly, the kitchen from here is down the stairs take a right, walk straight until I get to the statue of Raphaime, make a left there and walk until you see the entrance to the kitchen. There should be food there.

Signed, Sharrow Shrale

Year 1: Day 45,

I was correct on my path and I stayed out of sight from THEM. They must be stopped but I don’t know how yet. I must get out of here but they are keeping a great eye on the premises. The East wall can get me out of here, but the problem with that is they are inside the school property and on the outside. If I get caught, I don’t know what they will do to me. They have injured Professor Lenobia and killed High Priestess Thorn. They rest of the school is in panic mode and they are being picked off one by one.

Signed, Sharrow Shrale”

“Wait a minute. Sharrow Shrale!! I remember Proffesor Lenobia talking about her in Mythology 101. She said High Priestess Thorn was killed and she took her place. If I remembering properly, Sharrow Shrale was only a young Unicorn hybrid. I will read two more.” Darius said as he found a couple more entries in the stack of papers.

“Year 1: Day 129-131,

THEY are finally getting bored with us and leaving. Students from other schools like the elves, dwarves and fauns are sending the rest of them off. They all left by the end of day 131. They are saying it is safe to come on out and go on back to school. Professor Lenobia took to High Priestess and still teaching Mythology 101.

Signed, Sharrow Shrale

Year 2: Day 114,

There should be no way that they should have been back. I am injured and I don’t think I will survive. I will hang on for another 5-12 days, other than that I don’t think I will survive passed that. My injury is on my left side probably 2 inches wide and 2 feet long, also 4 inches deep. It is hurting me to write this. I am trying to get through this pain without screaming. I hear them sniffing around right outside the door to where I am hiding. They have found where I am hiding. They are banging on the door trying to get in.

Signed, Sharrow Shrale.”

“Who is them/they?” Shaquina asked Darius.

“Them/They is the Draginucous Hybrids. They killed Sharrow Shrale, the best student I had.” High Priestess Lenobia said, startling Shaquina and Darius.

“Ah!! High Priestess!! S... Sorry to be in here.” Darius and Shaqiuna said at the same time.

“No... no. It is alright, Shaquina and Darius. This was her room. I shut this part of the school down because she had died here. Her body was cut to shreds last time I saw her. She protected this whole school from the Draginucous. She... She knew the consequences of her actions.” Lenobia said as she started crying.

“You may keep exploring in here. Be careful though.” Lenobia said as she left the room.

“Didn’t Feather say Sharrow Shrale was her ancestor?” Shaquina asked as she looked at the pages.

“Year 4: Day 191,

Feather of the Fararina Rainbow was born and she shall carry the rainbow pattern with her, forever. Her father, _________, was there and is the one who saved me from my horrible death On Day *****.”

“How is that possible?” Shaquina asked confused.

“How is what possible?” Darius asked her.

“How is Sharrow Shrale still alive? Also, who is Feather of the Fararina Rainbow? Who is the father of Feather of the Fararina Rainbow?” Shaquina asked as she looked through the papers in hand.

“In here!! I found them, Erin!!” Rainbow Feather yelled as she entered the room, scaring Darius and Shaquina.

“Feather, dear. Don’t scare us like that.” Shaquina said as she held her hand upon her chest.

“Sorry, Shaquina. What are you guys looking at?” Feather asked as she saw the papers in Darius’ hands.

“Well, they are Sharrow Shrale’s journal entries. Do you know who this Feather of the Fararina Rainbow is? Also, do you know who her father is?” Shaquina asked her.

“Here is one from her 3rd year. Listen to this...“Darius said with a smile.

“Year 3: Day 9-12,

School has changed to House of Hybrids in Norvajak. I don’t know what they are thinking. The House of Hybrids in Norvajak is pretty much inviting danger to come and play around with us. So far, it hasn’t been that bad since none of the Draginucous has been here. I still must be careful and very cautious of who I am with. I did meet an elf hybrid named Lo’danas Bloodsong. He looks elf but he is half unicorn, like me.

Signed, Sharrow Shrale.”

“Oh... umm. I don’t know who her father is.” Feather said as her ears drooped.

“Oh. Do you think your grandma will know who Feather of the Fararina Rainbow and who her father is?” Darius asked as Erin entered the room.

“Maybe. I am unsure about that.” Feather said as she sat on the floor in the room.

“Come on, Feather. Let’s go ask your grandmother about Feather of the Fararina Rainbow and her father.” Erin said as she smiled at Feather.

Feather sat there, crying. Erin, Darius and Shaquina stopped and looked at her sadly. All three of them walked over to her and hugged her.

“What is wrong, Feather?” Erin asked as she saw a glimpse of something black.

“Sha... Sharrow Shrale was my mother and I don’t know who my father is. Also, my real name is Feather of the Fararina Rainbow.” Feather said as she cried upon Shaquina’s shoulder.

“It is alright, Feather. You were raised by your grandmother and she did a phenomenal job of raising you.” Erin said as she heard someone else crying.

“What is it, Erin?” Feather asked her as she watched Erin walk toward the window where there was a stack of boxes in front of it.

Erin looked around the boxes and saw a male elf. He looked up at Erin and stood up. He was taller than he looked when he was slumped over on the floor. Erin looked at him with a smile and he wiped away his tears. He cleared his throat and took a deep breath.

“Who are you?” Erin asked him as she touched his left arm.

“I am Lo’danas Bloodsong. I am the elf hybrid Mrs. Shrale was talking about in her entry. She and I had a child before she had disappeared. I don’t know where both she and the baby went. It has been years but I remember that the baby was a white... Unicorn... hybrid... with... a... rainbow... mane... and... tail.” He said as he slowed his speech when he turned and saw Rainbow Feather.

“Father?” Rainbow asked as she looked at Lo’danas.

“Is... Is that you, Feather of the Fararina Rainbow?” He asked as he walked toward her.

As Rainbow and Lo’danas walked toward each other, Lo,danas and Rainbow’s friends fell as the tower shook. Rainbow ran out of the room and outside. She looked to see Deera and more Draginucous coming to attack the House of Hybrids. Her friends came out and stood next to her. Lo’danas had grabbed his bow and arrows. He shot at the Draginucous and hit Deera. She fell to the ground and changed into her human form. Her friends yelled at her no but she ignored them. Rainbow ran toward Deera and slid to a stop next to her. Deera kicked Rainbow away and drew her sword. Deera started laughing and pointed her sword at Rainbow’s neck.

“Why are you so worried about me when your mother died this same way?” Deera asked as she smiled a wicked smile.

“My mother didn’t die this way!! She died to protect me and my father!!” Rainbow snarled as her horn glowed and she pushed Deera off of her.

Deera rolled and Rainbow’s Cross bow and sheath of arrows showed up in her hand and upon her back. She loaded her Cross bow and pointed it at Deera as she tried to stand up. Deera finally stood up and looked at Rainbow, angrily. Deera growled and lunged at Rainbow. She dodged the blows from Deera for a little while and Rainbow shot afew of her arrows and Deera dodged them like they were going in slow motion. Deera screeched and lunged at Rainbow again. Rainbow dodged but the tip of the sword scratched her arm. Her arm went numb and Rainbow shot Deera in the arm for pay back. She gained feeling back in her arm and Shaquina tossed Rainbow her sword. Rainbow caught it and smiled at Deera.

“You don’t know howto fight with that, do you?” Deera asked with a growl.

“I know how to fight with a sword.” Rainbow said as she grimaced at the pain in her arm.

They both fell to the ground and the rest of the Draginucous left with a screech. Lo’danas and Rainbow’s friends ran over to Feather and picked her up. Deera woke up and sat up to see that Rainbow hasn’t woke up yet. Deera growled and changed into her draginucous form. One of the other Draginucous picked her up and they flew away.

“Fararina Feather!! Come on, my dear.” Lo’danas said as the students started to surround them.

Erin knelt down and her other friends did the same when Rainbow’s body started to rise from Lo’danas’s arms in a bright light. A Black Unicorn with a rainbow streak came from the bright light and touched Rainbow’s face. Sylvia Feather showed up in a gust of wind and dust that blew through there.

“Wake up, my Feather of the Fararina Rainbow.” Sylvia Feather and the black unicorn said together as Rainbow’s body touched the ground.

Rainbow started coughing and finally took a deep breath. She rolled over onto her side and saw the black unicorn.

“Welcome back, my daughter Feather of the Fararina Rainbow.” The black unicorn said as she held her hand out to Rainbow.

“Mother? Mother!! Oh, mother Shrale of the Black Sharrow!! How I have missed you dearly!!” Feather yelled as she got up and hugged her.

Sharrow Shrale and Rainbow Feather hugged each other as her friends and Lo’danas stared at them.

“Join us, Feather of the Midnight Sun, Lo’danas Bloodsong, Erin, Darius and Shaquina. Come join the group snuggling.” Feather said.

All of them joined the group hugging and enjoyed the moment.

The End...

Or is it?
