Minda sat on top the head of gargoyle that sat upon the balcony of her home. Her home was dark, evil. Any light that ever seemed to find its way through never lasted long. The only light that had seemed to stay longer than its welcomed stay was the light that Minda held inside herself. Her parents were very high up in the government of her home. Minda looked nothing like her parents, acted nothing like her parents. Minda was kind hearted, loving, caring, always willing to accept others, no matter how much of a misfit they were. Minda's parents however, did not, they laughed in the faces of those who did not belong, tortured those they did not like simply because the clothes they wore that day were not to their liking. Minda welcomed the poor into her home, her parents slammed doors in their face.
The rain poured, like it always had in her home, how it never flooded was a wonder to Minda. Screaming and cackling was heard in the distant. A light from a candle shone behind Minda, her mother in the doorway. "Minda honey, you look beautiful atop the head of that gargoyle." Minda's mother approached her, petting the back of her head, her golden locks intertwining around her mother's fingers. Looking back at her Mother Minda smiled. Her dark orange eyes, seemed to stare into her mother's soul. "You say I look beautiful everywhere mother." Pulling her knees up to her chest her bangs covering her eyes, the grey wings on her back soaked from the rain hung down almost touching the ground.
Minda's mother chuckled. "because you do." Minda's mother whispered in her ear before seemingly disappearing in the darkness of the world around Minda. Minda sat there still sulking, she hated the cruelty of this world how it seemed to be so evil, yet so many found it so beautiful. Minda heard a scream that seemed to come from nearby. Minda looked behind her, her dark eyes allowing her to see in the dark. Seeing that no one was around Minda jumped from the gargoyle, landing on the road beneath her. Those that were once so calmly wandering the night now ran in fear, that Minda had found some dark evil inside her. Yet, no Evil seemed no reside in Minda, ever. Minda noticed a child crying over what looked like a body, she approached the body, it was a woman. "How did she die child?" Minda asked looking at the child, The childs face dark, dirty, contorted like that of an ugly witch.
"The bad men killed her, they took her soul, sucked it right out of her. Now, I'm alone." Minda smiled, fangs, like that of a vampire protruded from her upper lip. The child screamed and cried. "No! you cant eat her! I still need her!" Minda threw the child off of her and crouched over the body pulling the mouth of the now dead mother open. Looking at the child. "I'm your genie now what is your wish?" The child hesitated. "I want my mom back!" Minda smiled again. "As you wish my child." Breathing out, a glow of white smoke exited Minda's body as it did an eerie scream followed with it. The mother inhaled and gasped for air. Before Minda could see the happy reuniting of mother and child. Minda flew back up to her room, resting on her bed. Her cat like creature crawled up with her. Minda closed her eyes and slowly fell asleep.
Minda's pet.
