The story of the unicorn girl

The reader exquisitely retells a story OF MAGIC and just like magic my mind suddenly drifted as if I had jumped right inside his book, hanging on to every word and every moment. I was not the girl sat on the grass no more. I was Elermere the magical unicorn girl. What a great way to spend a lazy Sunday afternoon, I had thought. As I closed my eyes, I could hear a tap tapping on the glass of the door. Peering through the murkiness and dusty window pane, and to my surprise was the most peculiar of creatures, and not one I was expecting to see. It's eyes were peering right back at me. I jumped as he did too, both startled we began to laugh so loud it was quite embarrassing. I opened the door and he rolled through the doorway with such a thud it shook all the pots and pans that were hanging from the hooks which were suspended from the ceiling. "What an entrance, dear sir" I exclaimed. "I hope you did not harm yourself?"

"No, NO my dear, I am quite fine, actually I am fantastic and very glad I have finally found you!"

"Found me?" I replied.

"Yes indeed, I have been looking for you since the day you were born, but I am not the only one who has been looking". "Quickly shut up the door. I have some news! You will need to sit down and listen carefully, your life is in VERY grave danger!"

And it was there he began to tell the story of the unicorn girl and why he had come to find her.

The door behind me in the old tree creaked open and out hopped one of it's inhabitants. "Oh dear, I exclaimed. I guess that was my cue to get on with my day, same time next week, Victor"?

Victor nodded, not at all pleased I had paused his story, however he understood how busy I can get and we both looked forward to our next meeting and instalment of the Unicorn girl.

 

- I have a feeling I will be pretty busy. You are more than welcome to continue. Post below what you think happens next....
