Step 1: The black of her eyes...

I don't remember much about my childhood... maybe it's because I am an orphan since I was a tiny kind. I live in my father's huge castle, with my aunt Lyla, a cold and powerful lady. These corridors who used to be filled with my laughs and cries are now as sinister and terrifying as prison corridors. Lyla is beautiful, her blue eyes chill you to the bone in no time... Yet... Everyone respects her and appreciates her.
Her wealth comes from my heritage that she uses at will... That doesn't stop her from hating me more than anything else. Now that I've grown up a bit, I'm gonna try and know who she really is. What does she want? Why does she hate me that much?

Step 2: Revelation!

After two weeks of inquiry with no interesting results, I'm starting to lose hope. As usual, I go to bed with fear in my stomach.
My night is full of nightmares, always the same ones. I dream that a man is chasing me in a forest. I am eventually gonna see his face when a loud noise wakes me up!
I cross the room stealthily... The noise gets clearer... I can hear voices but I can't understand what they are saying. Little by little I get to Lyla's desk. The door is slightly open, I'm hidden in the dark but I can see her. She is talking to her mirror, I don't get every word she says: "terror", "evil", "power", "reign"... Then suddenly, as if by magic, millions of little black creatures escape from the mirror in a black smoky cloud. They fly away under my ant's machiavellian laugh. I'm so frightened that I cry out loud!
Her blue eyes become dark and black. With a relieved sigh she whispers to one of her little monsters "Catch her"!

Step 3: Saved by the yetis!

I didn't know I could run so fast. I'm breathless by I keep on going, as fast as I can, pushed by my desire to live, I cross the forest that is lightened by the reflection of the moon. It's so scary! I know the machiavellian creatures are after me...
I don't know how but, I find myself surrounded... fists clenched, eyes closed, I try and get prepared to the end... But suddenly, two enormous yetis come out of nowhere, grab me and take me away... Hum... Suddenly I'm not quite sure what I prefer. Yetis or black fog monsters...
We travel through a forest and half an hour later they put me back on the ground, in a little clearing lit by dawn. This place is peaceful, calmness comes form the little river nearby, little by little I realize hundreds of animals are coming out of the forest. They come to me and lead me to a little house.

Step 4: The 4 legends

Four "guys" are waiting for me in front of the door. They look like they were coming out of a book!
"Heyyyy! Here you are, at last!
It seems you have spent the last 16 years polishing your nails! No need to introduce yourself, I've known you since you were born."
"Okay, I see, you don't remember... I am Lars, also known as Father Christmas! She is the tooth fairy, Ella! The little one over there is Nyx, the sandman! And here is the Easter rabbit, Alex! Don't you remember now?"
I must have banged my head hard...Or maybe I"m dead. That could explain why a giant rabbit is talking to me...
Little by little, I get used to them... and I start to believe all this is real... The tooth fairy won't leave me in peace, she's starting to get on my nerves with all her questions about my dental hygiene! Fortunately, Nyx comes to rescue me and he makes her fall asleep...
While we are all sitting around a table, I feel the others are worried. Father Christmas starts: "uzume, we were all there on the day you were born because you are someone very special... And you are here today for some reason... Haven't you noticed that your life was made of extraordinary events? Incomprehensible phenomenas? You are a very special girl... You are like us... You have magic powers!"

Step 5: Save the world!

None of them want to tell me what my powers are. They say, I'll know soon enough.
They know more than me about my ant and her plans... We spend the whole day planning an attack strategy to stop her from reigning and spreading terror on Earth. I feel strong, even invincible as if I had always been waiting for this...
I sense I am safe with my four companions. Ella is so joyful and optimistic! Nyx is a chatterbox but he as such a wild imagination. He puts words on all your dreams! Lars is the funniest of them all. He considers me as a sweet little girl he must protect. And Alex is great! I've never seen such a virile rabbit! Try to think of a giant rabbit with Rambo's voice and Taylor Lautner's muscles.
We are full of hope and will when we take off in Nyx's sand- plane. According to the yetis, Lyla is in Vakham's Castle, he's the terrible black mage who lives on top of the highest mountain in the world...
We go through several universes, all of them are beautiful... I know our mission is important and even essential for our world yet I feel happy and peaceful...

Step 6: The girl with gold fingers...

After a long journey, we eventually arrive near the castle but it is as empty as Lyla's heart! We are disappointed and ready to go back when we are surrounded by a swarm of smoky monsters. That was a trap! I'm just overwhelmed by what I see. After a few seconds, Lyla's henchmen leave.
I'm so cross! It's ridiculous! We've lost two precious days! She took us for a ride! Then suddenly, as I was cursing at the only member of my family still alive, I see a half eaten apple on Vakham's table. As I get closer, I can see that the apple comes from Lyla's orchard. Her fruit are unique, each one has her initial letters caved on it. Full of anger, I try to grab the fruit but as soon as I touch it, it turns into gold!
Nyx, Ella, Lars and Alex shout all at the same time: "Welcome to our world!"

Step 7: The triumph of joy!

So I have the power to turn everything I touch into gold! That's great. I don't have the time to marvel about my discovery, we leave again to look for Lyla. She is not far away, I can smell her sweet perfume and hear her awful laugh.
We keep on and, this time, I lead them. The 4 legends follow me without a word. We cross the forest and come to a cliff above the snowy valley next to the village. She is there, from her smile I can tell she isn't surprised to see me there.
I come close to her, angry as ever. Gold sparks come out of my eyes and skin! This time, Lyla's coldness does not calm me down. I stop in front of her and she says:
"Poor kid, your are as stupid as your parents were. You still believe in happiness and fairy tales!" She laughs at me and then she grabs me by the arm. I feel something change inside me. I feel exhausted, the weight of all the misfortune of the world seems to have fallen on me. I feel so much pain. Then I hear Lars shout something, he tells me to think about something positive. So I think about them, about how happy I felt with them! Little by little I feel better, hope come back! More optimistic than ever, I see the world around me again. I discover Lyla transformed into a gold statue and all around me, the forest and the village is full of sparkling gold flakes!
