Frightening experience

So before the seventh dance could begin, she quietly slipped out of the hall, out of the castle and into the front garden. Once there, Aria went to a water-fountain which was in a corner and was rather hidden, but relatively close to the castle. This was the perfect spot, from here she could see the castle and if anyone was looking for her. But no one from the castle would be able to see her.

Aria took off her shoes and rolled up her dress, exposing her feet. Her little feet were very red and were hurting. Aria put them in the water. It felt relaxing. After some time, Aria began to gently move her fingers, so that the water slowly started massaging her legs. She closed her eyes and was beginning to doze off when Aria heard an earsplitting scream. She looked around and saw a person, falling from somewhere the top of the tower.

She looked a little closer. "Penny? PENNY?!?!?!" Aria screamed as she recognised the person.

It all happened in a split second, Aria's mind raced like a horse. She knew that she would never be able to save Penny with fire or water. And it would be too late if she went to fetch someone. Then something inside her clicked. Aria closed her eyes and felt the air around. She could clearly feel Penny falling. Aria started moving her fingers, a kind of bed of wind formed beneath the falling Penny and she was flown safely towards the main entrance of the castle. After making sure that Penny was safe, Aria opened her eyes and ran towards her.

Penny was lying on the ground very confused. One second, she was falling towards the ground, the next second, her body was getting lighter and it felt like she was flying. Then, before she knew, she was on the ground. Penny got up and saw a very little and very scared Aria running towards her, tears flying out of her eyes. Aria ran into Penny's arms and hugged her, buried her face into Penny's clothes. She sobbed, "P-penny. Yo-you-you're o-okay!!!"

Penny was still very confused. Then an invisible bulb went off in her head. She hugged Aria closer and asked, "Miss Aria, did you save me?" Before Aria could answer, many people came running towards them. Seeing Penny hugging Aria, they thought that something happened to Aria.

Soon Aria's father and grandfather fought to the front. And her mother came a minute after with her two daughters. Joseph tried to take Aria into his arms, but she refused to leave Penny. So he knelt down and asked Aria in a soothing voice, "What happened, my love."

Up till now, Aria had calmed down. She said, "Penny fell." Hearing this, all the eyes turned to Penny, who looked around. Aria continued, "I heard a scream, and when I looked in the direction, I saw Penny falling. I knew coming to fetch dad would take too long, so....."

Joseph soothingly tucked a hair behind Aria's ear and asked, "What happened next?"

Aria: "I think I was able to bend wind. I closed my eyes and could feel each and everything the wind feels, so I flew Penny here." By this point, all the people who had gathered were shocked.
