I woke up on a windy, sunny day in the orphanage, I walked to the kitchen and saw my friends, Emily and Lorenzo, "good morning Amari" I heard Emily say "good morning Emily" I replied "whats for breakfast Lorenzo" I asked, "oatmeal again, for the 6th time this week" Lorenzo said "at least we get breakfast" I said... "True" Emily replied. After we ate we got to play outside "Tag you're it" Emily said as she tagged Lorenzo "Can I play with you guys" A little girl asked "Sure" I replied "Whats your name"I asked "Monica" "Okay" I replied, I introduced her to Lorenzo and Emily after we played tag, hide and seek and basketball. "Time to go inside," Kristina said. Kristina was one of the caretakers of our orphanage. Kristina had a worried look on her face "Go to your room and lock the door" Kristina said, We all looked confused and worried, but we followed her directions. (We all sleep in one big room) We heard talking outside, a language we all couldn't understand. A boy named Lucas moved towards the door "we have to see what was happening outside" Lucas said, we all crawled to the door, unlocked and slowly peaked outside and saw Kristina get stabbed tears ran down our faces, We then locked the door and put stuff behind it so they couldn't get in. I ran to my drawer and grabbed the dagger my parents gave me before they died. We heard banging on the door. "we should find a way to get out of here" Monica said, "The window" Lucas said. All of us ran to the window, unlocking it, We all scrambled out of the orphanage. "Follow us, Amari" Lorenzo said, We all ran into the forest as fast as we could, We looked back and saw 4 of those things chasing us, they were about 400 meters away from us. We started running until Lorenzo fell and sprained his ankle, "Lorenzo!" Emily shouted we helped him up, we saw them getting closer, 100 meters to be exact "Run, go without me," Lorenzo said, more tears formed in our eyes "but what about-" I was cut off by Lorenzo saying "Go". Emily dragged my hand and ran, I looked back and saw Lorenzo get stabbed, my best friend for 5 years, killed. The mark on my hand started glowing a grey color "Whats happening Emily" I asked her "You must live, you were chosen" Emily said "You will get an explanation later Amari" she replied. We came to a stop, "Go on Amari, I will give you a headstart" she said "I can't leave you here Emily" I said  Emily said "Just go, you don't have much time", Amari listen to me please". The mark on my hand starting glowing a gray color "I'm sorry I had to do this Amari" She said as she threw a potion in a glass bottle near me, that landed on the ground and shattered "the potion was made to protect you, Amari", as she said that the potion created a wall of air that I couldn't go thru. Emily ran towards the monsters, I ran away towards the forest, I didn't want to see another death again. I ran as fast I could but soon I grew tired and stopped. The mark on my hand turned a bright gray, it was so bright that I had to cover my eyes, after the flash of bright light, it opened a portal to another world I didn't know, I then heard footsteps behind me and saw those masked killers, I either had to go thru the portal or get killed, in my mind i thought "we all die you either kill yourself I get killed" then I said "I rather die by something else then you monsters" I took out my dagger and slowly backed to the portal, I was scared cause I had no experience fighting, when I was in front of the portal I fell towards the portal and fell in, I saw those monsters run towards the portal but it closed. "Ahhhhhhhh" I screamed as I fell from the sky, the mark on my hand glowed again and stopped me in mid-air and lowered me to the ground gently. That's how I got to Azeroth

"Amara, wake up, its a special day today" I heard my mother say, "I'm coming mom" I replied, I got out of bed ran to the kitchen. "Happy birthday Amara" My mom and dad replied at the same time, "Thank you"! I replied, my mother gave me a whip with spikes, I didn't expect whip, I was pretty shocked but was thankful "whats the spear for mom" I asked "you'll find out later" She replied. My dad gave me a hawk "Its so cute" I said "You'll also need that sometime later" he replied. I was curious as to what I needed it for. "Go outside and play with your hawk," My mom said "don't forget your whip, Amara," my mom said. I went outside, the hawk landed on my arm and while it did the mark on my arm started to glow, I didn't know why then the glowing stopped, it glowed more often than usual, I ignored, for now, I would ask mom and dad anyway. "what i should I name you" I said to my hawk, "I wonder if you understand what I'm saying"I said,"screech if you can understand me", the Hawk screeched, I was shook but that answered one of my questions "are you a male"I asked, I got no reply, "are you female" the hawk then screeched. I thought of a name for a while "how about starry"I asked, I got no reply, I tried a few other times and I still got no reply, "how about Leilani"I finally heard a screech. " I wonder whats taking so long,I grabbed my whip and Amara follow I walked back to the house and heard my parents conversation, (parents conversation) "We have to keep her save Druid" my mom said "What do you think we are trying to do Lunara "my dad replied, "we bring her to the portal, that's the safest way, she won't be safe here" my mom said "We should, she needs to discover her-"... I heard the conversation end, I backed up, when the door opened it was my mom, "let's go Amara, she talked to my hawk in a language I didn't  understand, She then held my whip, then carried me on her back and ran straight ahead, Amara was not far behind "Mom where are we going" I asked "Somewhere safe" she replied "what about dad" I said "he will catch up soon" She replied. I looked behind us and saw masked people "mom there are people chasing us" i said, My mom ran faster, my arm then started glowing, "we are close" my mom said, we came across two paths my mom decided to go on the one to the left, I looked back and they were still chasing us "Mom they're still after us" After about 2 minutes we saw portal, she put me down and said "take your whip and bring your hawk with you" "what about you" i asked "I will see you there, don't worry, now go" I ran towards the portal and checked if I had everything, I jumped in the portal, The last thing I heard I was "We love you, Amara," I heard my mom say. "Leilani" I Shouted, as I fell, I felt like the fall would be forever, then I felt saw Leilani turn into a Griffen, as she did, she caught me from the sky and landed me gently on the ground. That's how I got to Azaroth.
