The Making of a New Friend- Dark Aurora and Pinocchio
Aurora lounged in room, and had a thought. Since her birthday was coming up, why not go to town and get a few things?
Flight of foot, sure and steady. She raced down the mountain, never once slipping. Before she knew it, she was at the tree line. Slowing to a walk, she heard something, strange, and it seemed to sound....
Twinkly?
Was that even a word? She followed the sound, making sure to stay hidden, and she found a person. A small person, a little girl, playing with a doll. Just as she was about to confront the girl, a low voice called from far off, "Eva! Time to come in" followed by the ringing of a bell. The little girl dropped her doll and ran off, leaving Aurora alone with the thing. She stepped forward, examining it, it wasn't a doll at all, it was a puppet. She dropped the puppet and set it on fire. Now the little girl wouldn't have her precious puppet. Grabbing her wand, she turned a whole row of trees into puppets. She inspected each one, burning the ones she hated, until she reached the last one. She held it in her hands. A standard puppet by most, simple, yet something about it made her smile.
This was the puppet she didn't burn, instead, she gave it life.
