This month I'm participating to NaNoWriMo and all the draft of my new WIP Blue Angel will be available daily here.
Here are my 8 sentences. Today, let's introduce a new character.
Little explanation following Chip Etier's comment from last week
Demon and Fairy is build following Seti's feelings. At the beginning he is lonely and doesn't have friend which is the reason why the story is mostly based on narrative with few dialogues (I can't have him talk to himself all the time :P). As Seti meets new people and makes friend, the dialogues also appear.
In the previous episodes:
Seti was in pain and flying to see
Kallisto
who is the only person who can help him get ride of it. He remembered
how he had met her the first time but unfortunately this time it was
late at night and she was nowhere to be seen. Seti couldn't spend the
night on the Beach and decided to fly home not noticing that another
demon entered her house. We followed Seti and discovered his chaotic
bedroom before meeting his family for breakfast. They were arguing about
Seti's sister's arranged wedding being canceled by the other family and
Samira was crying. Their father said that Seti would just have to
apologize. and we learn what Seti thinks about the situation. Seti met
the twin's father and gave him an unexpected apology demon style which
scared everyone around except Taram who had been spying at the scene
from the stairs with his twin brother Torin. After the confrontation, as
always when he has a headache, Seti flew to the beach and fell asleep
near the tidal pool. When Seti waked, he saw Kallisto facing a snake he
managed to get through the barrier and stop it from attacking her, at
the moment he is about to kill the snake, Kallisto tells him to stop and
had him let the snake on the other side of the barrier. Then Seti had
an unexpected reaction but Kallisto didn't going to let him go that
easily. Kallisto seems to have a very strange combination of people
taking care of the security of the house, which scares Seti a little bit
while Kallisto seems to consider that he is her best protection. He
decided to fly away then notice the arrival of Kelpie.
Here are my 8 sentences. Today, let's introduce a new character.
The black horse emerged from the
water pond not too far from her fairy tree and snorted violently
splashing water in all directions.
“Kelpie, how many times do I
need to tell you to transform and go get a towel?” Kallisto said
putting down her flute to take some drops of water away from her
face.
“I’m not human, I can’t act
like a human,” Kelpie answered transforming into his human shape
and hiding behind a bush.
“You still come here often
enough. You must like the Human World a lot,” she answered making
the little fairies around her giggle.
Seti listened to the conversation
very interested.
“You know it’s not the Human
World I like,” Kelpie answered putting his clothes on.

Uh-oh. Seems like there could be a rivalry?
ReplyDeleteI love her voice, very wry and playful. =D
ReplyDeleteA possible rival? She doesn't seem too concerned though. Interesting.
ReplyDeleteUh oh. I think Seti is going to be a bit jealous about this. Will he have one of his explosive reactions? Then what? Why to leave me hanging, Linda. Good for you!

Fun excerpt!
ReplyDeleteAh crap! I hope Seti keeps his cool. I have lots of questions flitting around in my brain after reading this eight...nice job!
ReplyDeleteYay! I can comment today! So Kelpie is a very interesting new character, wonder what Seti will think of him? Fun snippet, love the little fairies!
ReplyDeleteA new rival, maybe?
ReplyDeleteSweet 8, I am enjoying this story!
ReplyDeleteI have a feeling that Seti might be jealous of this new character. Interesting excerpt!
ReplyDeleteI bet there really are "others" in our human world
ReplyDeleteHmm... the competition. Great 8.
ReplyDeleteLove that Kelpie said this: “I’m not human, I can’t act like a human," Made me giggle :) Being in the human world definitely has it's draws.
ReplyDeleteAhh, I sense there will be jealousy too. Very nice excerpt and I look forward to the next one! :)
