Hetty Feather

"Hetty," Jem spoke softly. I swallowed hard, feeling a lump in my throat. "You'll come, won't you?" I looked at my feet, to ashamed to speak. Edging backwards into the cave I stepped on Luke who was sleeping under my rag. He let out a bloodcurdling shriek. Ellen-Jane cowered, shying backwards towards one of the entrances. "NO! ELLEN-JANE!" I screamed. I saw her eyes full of horror before she fell into the sky and beneath the clouds. Jem got up. He peered down, I clung to his arm. He jumped. As he started, they parted like Moses in the sea. I was magical.
