ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Hundreds of people with there bags and suit cases rushed around a short Melanie Marzo. Some were tall , skinny, fat, round, and any other shape and size you could imagine.

She stood on the cobble stone side walk next to a light post in a sea of people swarming around. She was easy to spot , the only noticable about her was she was alone while every one else was in groups with thier friends. She stood about 5ft tall engulfed by people who were almost giants. She had long straight brown her that she constantly pushed behind her ears and bright green eyes that shone in the sun light. Melanie wore green t-shirt layered over a white long sleeve shirt,jeans ad her way -to- often- worn purple converse. She stood there confused about which carriage to take. There was one with clydsdale, one with, unicorns ( she wanted that one), scary black horses and one with brown mustangs pulling them. She could just take a guess and just go on one of them.

" Oh I am confused." she sighed as she put her hand to her head and shook her head back and forth. All the people talking and the noise coluded her thoughts. Carriages were leaving and new ones comming. What she missed hers? Would she be stuck here all alone. She couldn't even find the paper that had which school she was to go too. "What was it's name. Annastasia, no. Ummm maybe it was Ann -"
"Annelsia, Shcool for wizards and witches. Also called A.W.W or "awe"." he cut her off. Melanie looked up at the boy who was now standing infront of her. He was tall ,well compared to her he was, he had brownish -black hair and and hazel eyes. His spike in almost a faux hawk. It was cute she thought. Melanie was caught off her gaurd when he stuck his hand out for a hand shake. He grabbed her hand and shook it. His hand was soft and his shake was strong. Something she wouldn't have expected from a boy like him.
" I-I am Melanie...Marzo." she introduced herself and blushed. She never did good at meeting new people. It was always the shy act she did and she never could get over it. She didn't know why she told her parents she'd be fine leaving there world and entering an other releam.
" I am Josh Growlen. So are you going Annelsia?" asked Josh as he let go of Melanie's hand.
" Yeah , I am new and I really have know clue whats going on." explained Melanie ashamed of her follishness. When she talkedd to him it felt like it was just them and not with those 3,000 people.
" New? Well I geuss that's why you're confused . You can ride with me in this carriage." He said as he pointed to the line of carriages with the brown horses.
" O.k. Thanks!" she said and smiled at him tenderly. She walked over to her suitcases but Josh had already picked them for her. She was impressed mybe it was cause she never really met anyone new or he really was a kind person.

They entered the carriage cabin and sat a cross from each other.Josh put her suit case under her seat. The inside was just like out of a fairytale or the victorian age. It was beautiful the seat were cushined in a silky blue fabric. There were even little minature curtains in the same blue material. All the wood work in the carriage was a dark cherry. It was gorgeous she thought. Melanielooked up at Josh and he gave her a little smile, she smilled back.
" So I take it this is you first time in our Realm?" He said as he look out the window at the passing trees. It was like they in some sort of a story book.
"Yeah, I mean my parents told me about it but they made me skip comming last year because of some sort of "Darkness" was brewing." She replied to him.
"Oh, well I think things have gotten better. This is my second year going to Annelsia."
" That's cool. How old are you?"
" I've just turned sixteen last month."
" Cool I am gonna be sixteen in December four months away from your birthday." She replied. Josh stared out the window smiling to himself. So with natural cusiosity she looked out too but only to find that the wasn't on the ground it was in the air...Flying! It also account for the bumpiness disappearing.
"OH,My GOODNESSS!!!!" she scream as she grasped her hands on to the bench and shut her eyes. Josh only laughed at her in delight. Melanie never did do well with heights, they always scared her soooooo much. "Seatbelts?! Were are the seat belts?" she called out as she frantically searched for one to fasten her scared body to the cherry bench. Josh said:"There are no seat belts." A smile spread across his face as Melanie stopped looking for the seat belt and met his eyes in disbelief. "Melanie," he said as he put his hands on her shoulder "everythings gonna be alright. I won't let anythinng bad happen to you, ok?!" He smiled at her and chuckled at her a little bit. She only nodded and sat still. What Josh didn't know was that this brought her more comfort than he could imagine. Some one actually cared about her ... a new friend, maybe
