Chatterbox: Inkwell

Write a paragraph

Write a paragraph ! 

I am going to write a paragraph. Please add on to it. 

Anna sat on the rickety, wooden bench, and read a book, in the silence of her secret reading spot.  She could never read in her cramped house, with her 6 other siblings, something chaotic always happening, everywhere. The little bench, in the corner of the beautifull and mersmerizing forest was Anna's special place to be alone and do what she pleased, without any disturbance. Or at least, it was, before Anna knew Jackie. 

Now someone can add a bit of the story. Let's see how far this story will go !

Jackie came on that crisp, humid August day that Anna would never forget. One minute, Anna was reading a fairytale out of an old ragged book from the basement, sitting cross-legged on her special bench, and trying not to think about school starting soon, and the next minute, her book was gone. It seemed to flash out of her grasping fingers.

Anna's breath shortened. She yanked the fraying sleeve of her old sundress and wrung her fingers out between the end of it. It was a weird habit of hers - wringing her fingers out when she was nervous.

"Hello?" she rasped.

"Hello!" A cheery squeak filled the fairy-like forest.

Anna wiped her hands on the pockets of her sundress, nervous as ever.

"Who are you?" she whispered.

"Oh, little old me? I'm just a nymph!"

"A what?" Anna gasped.

A small sigh uttered from behind the bench.

A tiny pale blue girl with pointed ears and bouncy hair stepped out of the forest's depths.

"A nymph!" the creature sang out.

Anna screamed.

 

To be Continued: Ananya, want to add on?
