Summoned
Sprinting through the forest, I twisted to see if the man was still pursuing me. He was, though a hundred year old man would struggle to keep up with a twelve-year-old girl who'd been running from him her entire life. If I've lived twelve years with him not finding me, surely another ten minutes won't hurt I thought with a twang. I forced my legs to run faster, to push myself to the limit. Turning, I threw my arms wide and a round ball of pure white light. A catfish appeared in the distance. Weaving through the trees, its eyes matched the light shimmering above my head. Heaving myself into the saddle I'd crafted for it, I swam through the fog, off into the safety of the distance.
