Chapter 1: Family Games
**What I think Eldira looks like^^**
Eldira's POV:
Today is the day! What day do you ask? Well today is the day that we are settling in to the capital city for a while. As you may have guessed I am really really REALLY excited to be in the capital!
I go over to my older twin brothers Stefan and Nicu, who are by a shady oak tree. I decide I want to scare them so I quietly sneak up behind them and yell "BOO!" while lightly pushing on their backs. They jump about a foot in the air as I laugh doubled over.
They turn around and both say at the same time "You had better run Eldira because you are in so much trouble!" I squeak and make a dash for the big redwood tree on the other side of the clearing that our clan had stopped at for the previous night. As I near the tree I look back to see my brothers starting to catch up to me, so I run a little faster until I get to the tree. I jump and swing myself up on to the lowest branch and start to climb up to the half way point.
When my brothers get to the base of the tree they have playful angry faces on, but I know that they are really smiling. "You are going to have to catch me mire pral!"(my brother) I shout down to them. Nicu gets a mischievous gleam in his eyes as he turns to whisper in Stefan's ear. When they turn back to look at me they are smirking. As Stefan gets ready to hoist Nicu up I get a little nervous and climb up the tree a little more. By the time I am three quarters of the way up Nicu has gotten to the half-way point, and as I climb higher his smirk turns into a look of worry.
I laugh "Are you too much of a scaredy cat to come get me?" I holler. By now I was the closest to the top as I could get because the rest of the branches from here wouldn't hold my weight.
"No I'm not a scaredy cat I'm just worried that you will fall because you are too high up!" Nicu reasons.
"No I'm not! Besides it's a great view from here you can see the castle!" and it was true. You could see for miles! There was a lake that was nearby that would be great for swimming in, glistening in the morning sun, and the city was just beyond it with the castle in clear view for everyone to see. I sighed; I bet the views from the castle would be beautiful! But I would have to settle for capturing my current view later with my art supplies.
I was brought out of my day dreaming when Nicu shouted "I don't care about the view El! I'm serious! Get down, we are worried!" When I looked down I saw that both my brothers were on the ground again looking up at me with matching faces of worry, the only differences being that Stefan's eyes were blue while Nicu's were the same mossy green as mine and Nicu had mom's curly hair while Stefan had dad's slightly wavy hair, everything else was the same. While Nicu had mom's hair and dad's eyes and Stefan had dad's hair and mom's eyes and them both getting dad's height at 6'0. I was a mix of both with thick brown hair that was in between curly and wavy, and mossy green eyes with shards of blue, getting my mother's medium height of 5'5 and all of the Moon family having the common Romani tanned skin.
"All right I'll come down, but you have to promise me that I will not be tickled upon my return to the ground! Alright?" They grumbled but finally agreed, and I started my descent to the middle of the tree. Once there I smirked, might as well still have a little bit of fun I thought as I jumped and grabbed the branch below swinging from branch to branch until I got to the bottom then I flew off really high into the air doing a flip then landing, I finished off my stunt with a grand bow that I do after every performance that we do. When I looked up I saw that a few other members of our clan had gathered to watch. When I caught sight of my brothers I smirked, both of their faces were pale and they were gaping at me with their mouths hanging wide open.
I walked up to them with the smirk still on my face, put my fingers under their chins and closed their mouth shut and winked. Turning around I called over my shoulder "Do you two need some wessons in the art of awesomeness from their wittle sister? I teas in a baby voice, laughing s they blush in embarrassment at my jab.
I go back to my caravan and hook the front to my parents and the back to Stefan's, then the back of Stefan's to Nicu's so that only one person needs to drive the car leaving the rest of the family to stay in their respective caravans. I then go into my caravan which has my mom and I's performance items as well as my personal things leaving my room very colorful, but I like it that way with fabrics put all around and colorful beads put up and plants in my window making the place very cozy and creative.
I pull some of my art supplies out and get comfy on my bed to start my sketch of the scene that I saw from the top of the tree, settling in for the ride to the field that we were to set up at for the time that were at the capital.

Hey Guys!
So what did you think? Good? or...Bad? Let me know what you thought! :)
I am Super sorry that it was on the short side and that it may be a little but in the future
I will try to make chapters longer and as the book progresses (like in a few more chapters) I'm hoping that you will think that it gets better as you read along!
Any feedback is great as long as it is not mean or rude I'm all ears!
See Ya!
