Chapter Two
I guess I
should tell you a bit about myself so I’ll begin with my name, it’s Dani, which
is a short version of my Native American name: Dancing Wind. I know, sounds ridiculous right? Well my parents are HUGE traditional people
of The People. I know all the traditions
of my tribe. But I’m not going to bore
you with all that baggage. Nor all the
harassment I received in school and the horrible nicknames, like “Breaking
Wind” and such.
I do live,
strike that: DID live on a reservation but I start college this fall, so my new
home is with my Aunt on her ranch. I was
actually on my way here when “The Event” occurred.
I love my
Aunt’s ranch which is called “Paradise” and it really is. It’s not a huge ranch only about 400 acres in
the Ozarks. And it’s close enough to the
College where I’ll be going, that I can live off campus but my scholarship
includes room and board so I’ll stay on campus during the week but come to my
aunt’s on the weekends. At least I hope
that is still my plan. But I’m not sure
right now what is going to happen. I
mean I’m getting a handle on being able to talk to animals and understand their
answers but now it seems that something else is happening to me.

I still am not able to reply to comments. I don't know what happened. But thank you all for reading my stories! I really appreciate the feedback. :)
