Forest cleared her throat and started to chase the girl who fled. Why were people so innocent and sheepish? Maybe if she talked to her she would find out.When she got to the girl she tried to stop her b putting a steady hand on her shoulder. "Hey! Why did you run? Nothing can be solved if all we do is run." She said as she continued to follow and try to slow down the girl.
Nessie didn't know why this made her angry, but it did. "I know that!" She said softly, without her stutter, and would have yelled had she thought that would have made her feel better "I know that, and yet it seems to be all I can do! I make a mess of everything! I can't even say I don't want to talk without offending someone! I just want to be able to talk without making a fool of myself, or offending someone, or making someone cry! I want to be able to be all I can, and yet I can't! I'm cursed with water and fire and I can't even use fire, because half of me is always there waiting to stop it"
As she spoke, fire formed in one hand without her noticing, water in the other "I c-c-c-can't d-do t-this anymore!" She clasped her hands together and steam rose. She fell to the floor, shaking and sobbing, "I c-c-can't p-p-pretend anymore!"
She dropped her head in her hands, shaking. "I j-just w-want to be n-n-n-normal"
