Another World Part 3! The elves were whispering among themselves as our emergency council consulted with the duchess. I looked at the three aliens. The shortest was female and had delicate features. She would have been extremely pretty but the scowl plastered to her face was a major turn off. She was sitting apart from the males on a boulder. The younger male looked my age and was very good looking. The way he acted was good natured and I immediately liked him. As I inspected the older man I noticed that he had kind eyes. The council talked for hours. I couldn't believe that they could just ignore the creatures in the corner. Before anyone could notice what I was doing I crept towards them. They all looked at me. Now that I was closer I could see the the younger man had the best eyes. He stood and said, " You seem troubled." At that moment I knew I was. My #life didn't make sense. It was like he could sense my feelings. As I peered deeper into his eyes I could see my reflection peering back at me. My long brown hair hung in untamable curls down my back. Unfortunately when they stocked this place they didn't think of hair straighteners. My hazel eyes were bright with curiosity. My full lips and tan skin were overshadowed by them. My mother had always said my eyes were my best feature. I thought of my mother. Had she survived? The chances were slim but I would give anything to be held close by her again. This isn't the only sanctuary, but it is the only one near. My parents were on their way back from a business trip when the end hit. My brother, being to young to be left alone, was with them. If they had found a sanctuary near them they could have survived. I snapped my head away from the man and ran to the duchess.
