Lucy (aka Lucinda) lived an ordinary life. But once a storm assessed her to the Windernals, a type of wind, her life changed entirely and she would never be ordinary again.

Thunder roared. The wind screamed. The storm reached it's peak, then slowly, the constant rumble of thunder quieted. The wind stopped. All I heard was the pelting of raindrops.
I laid on my bed at the middle of the night. The rain sounded like a lullaby, trying to make me sleep and failing. All of a sudden, I thought the wind said something. "Wendy verses Charlotte : WENDY WINS!" Then the next thing I knew there was a streak of hot pink lightning shot across the sky. I pressed a hand on the cool glass of the window.Then I heard a voice. And saw a face. Gretel? It couldn't be! She died in April!
" I know what you are thinking..." Gretel said. " Listen to me. Ghost or not. See you at the backyard. Wendy'll be waiting..."
" Who's Wendy? "
" Just go. I died in May. The Winds saved me in return for eternal slavery. Go there. Now! "
Then the scream of the wind drowned her voice out . Mist came and covered her face. Then after it all faded slowly, I saw nothing but raindrops. I slowly realized what happened and decided that after I had a drink of water, I'd go to the backyard.
==[:-)
Plonk. Plonk.
I dropped two ice cubes into a mug that was probably made for hot chocolate and poured some water in.
"Oh! Hi, Lucinda-I mean, Lucy." Vanessa's voice said. "I didn't know you were here. "
" Oh just choose one. I mean, my name is Lucinda but you also can call me Lucy. So in short, choose : Lucy or Lucinda. I prefer Lucy. " FYI, Vanessa was a very indecisive friend and yet somehow she's awfully nice you won't even realize that she's indecisive.
" I can't sleep. " She yawned.
" It's kinda like the only reason I'm here. The other reason is-"
" IT'S MY MONEY AND I DON'T CARE!! " Avery came in, her black hair dyed a hideous white and make up all wet and making a puddle of colors underneath her.
Vanessa backed to a wall as I backed into the kitchen. If she were screaming, that would mean she was in a bad mood. And when she was in a bad mood, she'd bully. And when she bullied, she'd do more than words. She'd get violent. But poor Vanessa had backed to a door and that door was exactly where Avery was headed to. "GET OUTTA MY WAY!!" Avery hollered, shoving Vanessa on the stomach and throwing her on the ground. "Ouch." She mumbled. "You could've asked. Ow. " At least she fell on a stack of pillows. I ran over to help her up, as a snickering Avery walked by. Afterwards, she went up to her room with an ice pack, murmuring about how annoying Avery was while rubbing her bruised head.

I went to my part of the backyard and poured a thin layer of sand in, taking a small sip of water from the bottle of water I brought with me while putting fairy lights around me.
Then I saw footsteps. Looking up, I saw Gretel and another girl walking towards me.
"This is Wendy, "
Then wind wrapped around Gretel and she was gone.
"Hi-i. I'm W-wend-dy" The girl said shyly.
"Hi. I'm Lucinda."
Wendy sat down and said, " You are gonna be a heroine. Kinda like stopping an asteroid from crashing like, 8 days later."
"How? "
" Telling Astra to stop, of course. Kinda like speaking."
" Okay..."
" The spirits will come to you-"
Wind whipped her away, leaving me confused. Yawning, I closed my eyes and sleep came to me.
🤗🍕💥💫🚑⚔
This dream was awkward. I saw pizza. Then there was an explosion. I got dizzy. Then all of a sudden I'm driving a car in war. Then I woke up to birds chirping. Yawning, I tidied up and went to do my morning routine.
