Jaimee's Story Part 4

What Piper called the Others, the fairies and elves called, the Shadows.

One time she saw a fire and watched it for hours, never seeing or hearing another thing, until she noticed something move. It was an arrow that fired up the hill at a tall figure standing there. The next moment it was gone.

Then she saw a flat shadow arise from the ground with sharp teeth and claws and burning red eyes. She ran into the forest when she saw this but the shadows were chasing after her and calling out, "Shadow-keeper! Shadow-keeper!"

Arrows were everywhere as she ran. [She still has a scar on her arm from that night.]

When she got to a cave, the shadows had stopped following her.

She slept until she woke up to find a man standing beside her. He had the bluest eyes on earth and long black hair. This is when she first met the real Shadow-Keeper.

Now she meets him again.
