CHAPTER 1

Swan was sitting in an armchair fidgeting. '' StarClan, I wish my life was more exciting. '' she thought. And then a girl ran into her house, screaming. “aHHHHHH” She screeched and Swan stood up and covered her mouth. “Woah, woah, WOAH.” Swan pushed the girl away. “First Of all, What makes you think that it’s okay to barge into somebody’s house? Second of all, who are you, and why did you do that?” Swan observed the girl carefully. She had silky black hair and glasses. As the girl adjusted her glasses, she caught her breath. “I’ll- I’ll answer your second question first. I’m Wistep, and, and... I’ll explain later.” “You better remember.” Swan scowled, almost accidentally. She did things like that a lot. “I don’t remember seeing you around Finland before. Where’d you come from?” Wistep looked surprised. “Oh, this is Finland? Huh, didn’t think it was so CLOSE...” Wistep sighed. “If you REALLY want to know where I came from, follow me.” Swan was reluctant to follow this strange girl, but she rolled her eyes and agreed. “Alright. Better not be too long of a walk though.” Swan snarled slightly, and Wistep looked her straight in the eyes. “Trust me, it’s not.” She then made a gesture with her hand, and Swan and Wistep disappeared into the forest, a seemingly long walk ahead of them.

“Are we there yet?” Swan groaned. Wistep looked at her angrily, and she shut her mouth. “Almost. Only a few more minutes.” Suddenly, Wistep remembered something. “Who are you, by the way?” “Swan.” She answered, and saluted jokingly. Wistep chuckled. “Nice name.” She said. Swan smiled. “Thanks.” Her face fell again. “Where are we going, anyway.” Wistep stopped in her tracks and looked back at Swan. “You’ll see.” She said simply. Swan rolled her eyes. She looked around her. The trees seemed much more lush then they ever were back in Finland. More birds were singing, and she could see a LOT more wildlife. Deer were EVERYWHERE. She was surprised there weren’t more deer crossing signs. Well, there aren’t any roads. The path they were walking on was just a hiking path. Suddenly, Wistep halted. She walked a few more steps and came to a stop at a quaint little cottage. “We’re here.” She smiled. Swan daintily walked up the steps, followed by Wistep, and warily opened the door. She was greeted by plenty of people, and all of their voices- but 4- were screaming at her “WELCOME TO STORYBLOG!”

“Woah. Who are all you guys?” Swan muttered, stepping into the house, Wistep right behind her. “The inhabitants of Storyblog.” A brown eyed, black-brown haired girl grinned. “Whaddya, dumb? If you’re looking for our names, though, then I’m Foxie.” A girl with long black hair and green eyes spoke up next. “Dawnbringer.” She said simply. “Or just Dawn, if you’d like.” Next a blonde girl with purple tips smiled and approached Swan, pushing past the others. “I’m Wavey!” She grinned. “And you are?” “Swan.” The Finnish girl sighed and rolled her eyes. Now a hazel eyed girl with glasses approached Swan. “Ottie’s the name.” She smiled gently. She stepped back right away. As soon as she saw Ottie step back, a freckled girl hopped on forward. “Iris! That’s my name! Swan is a pretty name. Can we be friends?” She seemed to spit all her words out at once. Swan nodded, slightly terrified, as Iris stepped back. Next a girl with blonde, green and purple hair stepped forward and grinned. “Fallen is my name, and I am pleased to make your acquaintance.” She stepped back almost immediately, just like Ottie did. Next a girl with curly red hair stepped forward. “I’m Bright.” She grinned. She seemed to snap her fingers a bit as she said it. Her face then reddened and she ran back to her place, seeming to notice what she’d accidentally done. A fair skinned strawberry blonde then stepped forward and seemed to curtsy as she introduced herself. “Beech.” She said, quite matter-of-factly. She smiled and stepped back with one huge step. Next, curly red hair swarmed Swan’s vision as a redhead stepped forward. “Call me Leaf.” They grinned. They seemed to gesture for the next person to come as they stepped back. A slender, tall, dark haired girl stepped forward next, her hands behind her back. “I’m Pero.” She mumbled a bit, but Swan could still understand her as she scurried back to her place. A girl wearing pigtails seemed to skip forward as she introduced herself as Snow optimistically, and finally, a black and silver haired girl with brown eyes told Swan her name was Stream. But Swan looked at the four people in the back of the room and made her first important decision of her new life: to go interrogate them.

As Swan pushed silently through the crowded room to the back wall, she heard a lot of groans and ‘Hey!’s and sighs, but she kept moving. Finally, she reached the four girls at the back wall: Well, at least three of them were girls. She wasn’t sure about the other one. Swan looked at them all and decided the blonde with blue-grey eyes looked the nicest. “Hey.” Swan smiled as she approached her. A small scowl on the girl’s face quickly became a somewhat fake smile as she said. “Oh! It’s Swan, right? I’m Blue. Didn’t think you’d come so soon. Go along, meet the others.” Blue pushed her away forcefully and she stumbled to a girl with black tipped hair. She was holding a crow. She didn’t seem too kind, but enough talking and Swan got her name: Bluefie. Next, a black haired girl wearing spotted clothing motioned her, and with some snarky conversation, Swan discovered her name was Shady. Finally there was only the girl- boy? Person?- with glasses left. Swan carefully approached her- him? Hir?- with a smile. “Hey.” She said, But there was no response. “Hey.” Swan repeated. Still nothing. “Hey lady!” Suddenly the girl- or boy, or person- turned her- his, hir- head and hissed. “HOW DARE YOU ASSUME MY GENDER? I IDENTIFY AS NONBINAR-Oh. Swan. Pleasure meeting you. I’m Fawny. Now shoo, I’m reading.” The sudden mood swing shook Swan slightly, but she did as she was told and left the cottage. She sat on the front step and sighed.  Boy,  she thought, '' this is gonna be a long day. ''
