Fire an Ice: Bloody Sword by Taeler Jones (bookstand for reading .TXT) 📖

man the letter and wait for him to read it. The old man regarded her with surprised eyes but said nothing. He walked out to the back room and came back 5 minutes later with a medium size duffle bag. Okay weird.
“Please Miss. Ice don’t open it until you are home!” His voice surprised me. I was a soft tempo that seemed to only let me hear. Nodding I walk back out to the truck and throw the bag in the back. While getting back in and waiting to leave Beth turns around and try’s to make conversation.
“Have I told you, you have such pretty hair?” I nod my head and she seems to take a hint and starts driving again. My heart seems to be aching in a terrible way. Looking around I remark this town was in kind of a square. In the middle was an elementary, middle, and high school where. There were other buildings and around those buildings houses seem to be surrounding it.
Driving past the school and a rest runt called Ronnie’s Rest runt. Other than that we were surrounded by tress on both sides. Until we came to a long drive way that had a pretty shamrock green mail box that said Abby Clove.
The grass was a lush green and a white fence lined around a good 5 Acers of the farm. There were cows, a few pigs, chickens, horses and a dog. There was a big red barn that had double doors and white trimming, next to it was a big two story house that was painted white with a light brown trimming. The door was a big and white with a gold nob. There were horses of all colors but white I noticed walking around the front of the fence that leads to the hay.
Jumping out of the truck I stand there as a huge dog runs up and crashes into me. There I am on my butt with a wild eyed dog licking my face. It was a white Great Perrine’s.
“Cal get off her now!!” My aunt booms at the dog. He hurries off me in a rush and trots over to Clove where he just sits there and looks pitiful. “Sorry he gets exited sometimes.” She laughs. Abby rushes to say thank you and we will be there to night. Walking through the door I look around it’s a old country style nothing special. Abby drags me up stairs and shoves me in the room I am going to be staying in and its plain with shark white walls that make my eyes hurt.
“Get ready we leave in 10 minutes.”
“But she just left shouldn’t we give her time?”
“She said just hurry up and get over as fast as you can.” Abby smirked. Shaking my head I just sit on my bed and wait. I don’t have to change, why I would change just to go somewhere I don’t even want to go. Soon enough my aunt is banging on the door and we head out in her truck. All to soon we are there in there drive way, I’m to tired to notice anything about my surroundings. We knock and there stands Bell looking all ready and step ford wifeish. God this is going to one long night I growl in my head.

That dinner was the most annoying, frustrating, painful dinner I have ever had or even know to mankind. Now sitting on my bed I remember the bag the bank man gave me. Grabbing it from under the bed I set it on my lap and just realize how big it is. Taking a deep breath I unzip the bag, I sucked in a shocked gasp. Pulling out a black designer bag I open it, there inside was another note, a smaller hand purse and a new I phone 4!! I opened the bug purse and couldn’t believe my eyes. There was a new I.D, a new passport, and a new driver’s license but that’s what not caught my eye. There neatly folded and brand new was 5 hundred dollars bills, 5 fifty’s, 5 twenty’s, 5 ten’s and 10 one’s. God was my family a gang or in an Ex con!! I hurriedly got the note and ripped it opened, there was my dad’s handwriting again that made my heart break.
Dear Anastasia,
You might be wondering what the hell?? And no I didn’t rob a bank, am a Ex con, or in a gang or killed anybody!! Like I said your mother and I got around we were high people and you would know this if you ever asked for anything my sweet girl I would have given you the world. Now this stuff is all important to you one way or another!! If you ever need to leave the country fast this pass port will take you anywhere you need. Always carry it with you. The I phone 4 has some contacts in case of an emergency. Lab top is at the bottom of the bag where you have probably not checked yet.  It has the most important things in it that you will need to know!! I would have told you sooner but we knew that they were coming. Don’t read it if you don’t think you’re ready!! But most of all the money, spend it wisely and knowing you, you will. There is 3 bank cards in there also. You should know how much we left you, 5.6 million dollars! Yes it’s A LOT maybe that’s even understatement ha-ha. It’s weird writing this letter and it also makes my heart already break. The old man at the bank named Simone I would trust him with my life so if you need anything go to him. With this money buy a high level safe that you can only open.
There is so much more I would love to tell you, but here it all is as short as I can make it. I love you so much and so dose you mother and sister. I will protect you and watch over you no MATTER where I AM!!
- Forever and Always!! Dad
Of course tears were flowing like a water fall in a wild frenzy. I couldn’t take it anymore. My dad was my world! So I lay there whispering his name over and over until I fall in to a deep horrible sleep.
Chapter 4
“Wonderland”
It’s been two months since I have been with my aunt. We are getting along better but I still rarely talk when not spoken to. I still don’t let her hug me, or try to love me. I can’t take having another life taken at my fault. I remodeled my room and bought a lot of other things. Abby is still in shock with the money I showed her, she knew we had money but not thins much. She even asked if he robbed a bank. I would show her the letter but it seems to special for anyone to read. But above all of this school starts tomorrow and I don’t want to go.
Standing in the middle of my new room I am amazed at their work and how much they put into it. Maybe it was because of the money and the tips? The carpet was a white fuzzy plush that you could sink your toes in and it would feel as if you are brushing up angel wings. My walls were painted almost to the color of my eyes, a nice icy blue with silver flecks of paint I asked for. There were poems and quotes that I wrote and picked out that I made the painters write in a curvy nice writing on the walls. On my black door had a painted mean looking polar bear. My bed had a mattress that you could sink into and get lost, the blanket was a blizzard furry quilt that matched the pillows. There was a thick white canopy hanging around the bed as while so if I wanted I could close it all around. Above the head board was a white horse rearing in a snowy white capped mountain and behind was my new installed top of the line safe. I installed new windows that went from the floor to the ceiling so I could easily see the front yard. But what I didn’t tell my aunt was that one of the windows at the bottom you could open it and climb easily on the roof. I had my own bathroom that had a big tube that shot jet streams out. Everything was shark white.
My closet was filled with all the new brands of clothes, shoes, jewelry, accessories. My ceiling had sharp glass looking icicles everywhere with little bulbs in the so they looking like glowing stars when lights were off. Glass snowflakes were also hanging everywhere so in the sun it made little rainbows. I had a white desk that was by the wall that held my I phone, laptop, papers, and many other things.
They did such a great job!! I got them here from the United States just to do this. I wanted to feel more at home and this my little wonderland did feel like home. With some may call powers I have been practicing how to use it with the long days that I had nothing to do. I was sitting in the back yard near the tress so I was in the shade and I started snapping my fingers. To my surprise every time I seemed to snap there was a blurry trail of frost it left behind. It hung in the air for a second before it dissolved into nothing. Standing up I face the tree to my left and fling my arm out like I did with the guy at my house and there flew through the air was a sharp icicle the landed dead in the middle of the tree. Ever since then I have been practicing and I have discovered I could make the ice water and throw it so when it touches someone or thing it instantly turns to ice again.
“Holy CRAP!!” Abby breaths walking in behind me making me jump out of my daydreaming.
“Tell me about it, they did more than I thought those Americans could do!!” I actually felt a little twig of joy inside me but it was just a small fraction.
“It looks and feels as if is winter wonderland.”
“While look at me I am the Ice Queen.” I say sarcastically. Sticking to the door was an envelope. Opening it was my bill had had to pay for the remodel and to my shock
