Flora

I could see the whole world turn upside down. They.... Selected me in the 'lucky 7' . I felt betrayed. Life did betray me as soon as I heard the reporter calling out my name.

I ran out of the house, with tears streaming down my cheek. Wherever my tears fall on the ground, a small plant sprouts out. My ablities with grass and ground which came down from my blood mother goddess Gaia. On the planet of Mesem, it wasn't unsual to find orphans due to the 6 floors games. I have heard from my dad that my mom was one of the few survivors of the 6 floors. I did some research on the survivors of the 6 floors, nothing good happened to anyone after they managed to survive. Only 5 persons have managed to survive out of the game. One was my mother godess Gaia who now has her deep sleep underground, one was a boy with super knowledge who was killed by fire accident in a factory, in which the whole factory turned down to ashes in seconds, killing many. Another was a boy with unknown capability, who after surviving the game, turned completely mad, and now in a mental asylum. No information was given about the other two survivors, but one thing was given that one of them was rich and owner of a factory.

So.... It was clear that even after surviving you always carried bad luck with you. It was like a double-edged sword if you lose you obviously die and even if you win you disappear somewhere in the galaxy.

In the thoughts, I realised that I was laying on the grass in the park. I visited the park whenever I was depresssed, the smooth grass made me forget all my tensions and sorrows. This is when chirpie approched me. Chirpie was my little green bird friend. A green colured swallow. He had a small body. His green feathers enhanced his black eyes. His chirp was sweeter than Athena's songs. With my abilities, I was able to understand chirpie. She was my best friend, a better than other human friends.

"So you wouldn't see me around now"
Chirpie replied with a sad chirp.
"Don't worry I will try my best to survive", saying this, I knew that nothing good will happen even if I survive nothing good will happen.
Chirpie was concerned about me, chirping in a low voice saying that 'what if you don't come out alive, I will be all alone'
Swallows generally migrate as the seasons change, but when I was 12, I remember when I met chirpie, we became good friends, thats when chirpie refused to migrate further on. Since then we became much deeper friends.
"Chirpie if I die, you know right. I will turn to a tree, so even if I die, you and I still will be friends forever"
Down in my family, whenever someone dies, turns into a tree. Which was like a gravestone on our graves.

Just when I was living my last happy moments. Suddenly the earth started rumbling, the figure of Gaia appeared from the ground.
"Mom"
Gaia was a beautiful godess. Her grey hair tied up in a braid, her face had soft features, just a new born baby. Her eyes were closed as she still was in her deep sleep.
"Flora"Gaia said ". "Its all just a trap Flora...... But still Flora take care." She said those instructions that every mother in the world would do. They love their children. Although Mom's eyes were closed, I could see the worry on her face. "Beware of everyone, trust no one, they can use you or maybe even kill you to move ahead." I could see her fading away.
"But one last thing I would say BEWARE of one guy, beware of the knowledge-.." She completely faded away before she could complete her sentence.
Beware of knowledge... What could it be?
