The Infection (for Parsons206)

"I don't know she rights them in a strange language" Timestopper showed Shade the paper. It said:
' الطبيعة الخضراء الأول هو الذهب،هوى أصعب منها ان تمسك.
ورقة لها في وقت مبكر زهرة؛
ولكن ذلك فقط في الساعة.
ثم ينحسر ورقة ورقة ل.
غرقت حتى عدن إلى الحزن،
حتى الفجر تنخفض هذه النسبة إلى اليوم.
يمكن البقاء الذهب شيئا.' (P.S. its Arabic)

 

"I-I umm, don't understand..."

 

" I can try to read it.. ummmm..
Nature's first green is gold, .....Her hardest hue to hold.
hmmmm... Her early leaf's a flower;
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day. Uhhhhhh....
Nothing gold can stay. "

 

"That's a really good poem.", shade says, flashing timestopper a smile

 

Timestopper smiled back at shade

 

"I didn't know there was so much talent running through your family."

 

"what do you mean?"

 

"You mother is a good poet, & you're a pegasus that can use magic. What does your father do?"

 

"he is a mechanic"

 

"Are you good at making poems, or repairing mechanical things?"

 

"My parents say I can fix anything, from Machinery, to poems, to Relationships. But we should get going the boat leaves in 5 minutes"

 

"That's cool.", shade says smiling, then gets up, & starts towards the docks

 

Timestopper walking beside her.

 

Shade walked onto the boat, & asked timestopper,"where too?"

 

"don't you remember we are going to Manidonia"

 

"I meant on the boat.", shade giggles

 

"We stay up here on the deck but I will only be a 10 minutes"

 

"Alright then...", shade said, as she went over to a wall, & leaned on it

 

~10 minutes later~

The boat docked in front of a large walled city. Shade and Timestopper could easily see a large Castle
"we are here"

 

"It's huge!", shade said quietly
