Have you ever noticed how life can shift all of sudden? You’re going along thinking everything is great and then WHAM, you get hit by a bus. Well, maybe not a literal bus, but you get what I mean, right? I’m talking about that moment in time when everything changes and life as you know it comes to a crashing halt.
My name is Abigail Freeman and for me, that moment came on my sixteenth birthday. It wasn't anything so dramatic as getting hit by a bus. In fact, it was so subtle, I didn’t even recognize it for what it was. Not until later could I look back and say that was the moment my life changed forever. |
It isn't easy to start a new life. To leave behind everything you know to go to a strange place full of strange people. Especially when you're sixteen and everyone you love thinks you're dead.
My name is Abigail Freeman and this is exactly the situation I found myself in after discovering the shocking truth about my heritage. Before Zack came into my life, before I knew anything about dragons and powers and secrets, I thought I was an ordinary girl. No different from my friends and family. Once I discovered the truth, everything changed. |
Everything I've been through has brought me here. It's not anywhere I ever wanted to be, but nobody gave me a choice. I didn't ask to be born. I didn't ask to be different. I didn't ask to be hated, or hunted, or to have my life ripped apart. I would give anything to go back to the way things used to be. But I can't do that. They won't let me.
I'm not human, but I'm still a person. Still a 16 year old girl who has lost too much. And yet, I'm so much more. I'm a renegade. I'm a rebel. I'm a hybrid. I'm a dragon. And the whole world is going to hear me roar. |
