GINNY

Cinderella is my favourite fairytale. I love when the fairy makes a precious dress, just for her, and she goes to the ball.

I wished I could have a history to tell. An incredible adventure, fighting enemies, finding romance, making my wishes come true. But... something terrible happened... my wishes really came true, not the way I expected.

Pleased to meet you, my name is Ginny... and this is my story.

I was walking around the park, it was awesome in autumn. All the colors you see are warm. Suddenly, I heard a dog barking behind me. It was the cutest thing ever. A little brown dog. I petted him.

-Hi, pal! Are you happy to see me? - its tail was shaking - my name is Ginny. Pleased to meet you, Mr... Larry.

Larry was the name in his dog collar. Larry Boyd. Strange. Since when a dog has name and surname? I was wondering if my parents would let me have it, but suddenly, I screamed. Who are my parents? Do I have a family? I couldn´t remember. Where was I? I could just remember that my name is Ginny and I´m here. I can´t remember more.

-I can help you – said a voice behind me.

I turned and saw a girl and a boy. Both had brown hair. The girl was fourteen, I think, and the boy, twelve. They were dressed very classical, like a princess and a prince from the past. I grabbed Larry and put him in my arms.

-My name is Sussanah de York – said the girl – and he´s my brother Edward , you can call us Sue and Eddie.

-Excuse me – I said – do you know who I am?

-Yes, we know, you just lost your memories. It happened the same to us. We turned out to be a prince and a princess when we believed that we lived in the XXI century.

-I don´t believe you! Maybe I´ve lost my memories, but I´m not stupid. Leave me alone!

-Listen to me, Ginny – said Eddie – yes, we know your name. We have been keeping an eye on you, we know that you´re not a normal girl.

-That´s impossible – I said – you have readen my name in my jacket. See? It´s written in here – and I started to walk far from them.

-Please – said Sue – listen to us.

-NO! – I screamed and started running.

I ran very fast, running away from Sue and Eddie. A prince and a princess from the past? HA!

I was holding Larry in my arms. He was calm. Suddenly two arms grabbed my shoulders. Before I could realise, I WAS FLYING! A boy was hoolding me while he was flying. He had curly black hair. That was impossible! People can´t fly!

-Things are not what they seem here – the boy told me, just like he was reading my mind – by the way, my name is Jack.

That boy was nice, he rescued me. But I hated him when I saw where he was taking me.

-Wait, NO! Sue and Eddie are here! Don´t take me with them!

-I´m sorry – said Jack – but you need to understand why we need you.

I landed soft next to Sue.

-Please, Ginny, listen to us!

-OK… I´m listening…

-You see – Eddie said – we are not real. I mean… we are books characters.

-But someway, you appeared here two months ago – added Jack – you told us you had something very important to do. You knew who we were. You knew our stories. But, you lost your memories.

-We want to help you to remember, so you can remember what was your mission, and who sent you here – Eddie explained.

I didn´t want to believe it. But when I looked right at Larry, the poor dog gave me a sad, frightened look, and somehow, I knew they were true.

-Well, and why is that mission so important? – I asked, and Sue smiled seeing that I was starting to believe.

-You said it could save us all, you said we were in great danger. At first, we didn´t believe you, but then you told us our stories. How could you knew that? You were the one who told us that we are books characters.

-How can I remember my mission, or who I am, or who brang me here?

-You took a book character with you. A girl. You said she could help you. But she told us you dissapeared. Maybe she can tell you everything. – said Eddie and he grabbed three little white stones from his pocket.

-What is that? – I asked.

-With this little stones – explained Sue – we can take you everywhere in goosebumps world.

-Goosebumps world?

-It´s the way you called it when you arrived the first time.

Eddie made a tiny tower with the stones, and he said some strange words I didn´t understand. A spell, maybe. Everything became gray around me and the world started to spin.

-What´s the name of that girl? – I asked finally to them.

Larry wanted to go with me, he jumped to my arms. While both started vanishing, I heard Jack saying.

-Her name is Lucy Dark!
