We I.D.

Mr. Keith - apush teacher
Alex Salazar - high school friend/teammate

I was in high school again and I was on the tennis team. Mr. Keith was my coach and Alex Salazar was my doubles partner. I took a really long time in the locker room before the game.
I wasn't a normal human being, I was a fairy or something. Every normal person had an ID tag tattooed on their wrist, and I didn't have one so people could tell I was a fairy. I was with Theo and I wanted to go into a store with him. The moment I walked inside a bunch of alarms started going off and I had to leave. Apparently we weren't granted the same rights as normal humans. I was also not allowed to buy clothes, so I was dressed in a lot of random rags that I had assembled and I wore big sunglasses so people wouldn't know who I was, and my hair was all fluffy and stuck out everywhere. There was a movie playing in the store that I wanted to see with Theo, so I somehow managed to get inside and sit down. The movie started to play, and I thought that maybe I had gotten away with it, but then I saw some employees standing in a corner making a list and looking up at me every so often. I tried to keep my head down so they couldn't see me. One of them walked up to me and said, "you're Carla Jennings aren't you?". I said "no, actually I'm not", but I knew that they had figured out I wasn't a human either way, so I got up and started to leave. Theo came with me and as I was walking out I turned to the woman and called her a few choice words, while Theo held me back and continued to lead me out of the store. When we got outside we both started complaining about how unfair the whole thing was. I told Theo he could go back inside and watch the rest of the movie, and he decided to. After he left I kind of regretted telling him that because now I would have to walk home through the woods alone. But being a fairy or whatever I was gave me the power to fly. I pushed off from the ground and rose over the trees. It was nighttime and the sky was perfectly clear. I sang to myself as I flew. After a little while I looked down and noticed a girl following me. I pushed up a little higher into the air to keep some distance, but it was hard to maintain that altitude. I looked to the left of me and saw a big glowing orb about 50 yards away. It was smokey or misty looking and just kind of hovered there. Then it shot toward me and went right underneath me. The girl and I were both really confused. It turned around and positioned itself directly in front of me. I got the impression it was trying to hurt me.
My dad was getting married again, and my mom was going to get married the day after that. The whole family had been spending a lot of time preparing and I was getting tired of thinking about weddings. There was something about a witch that had put a spell on my dad, and he had to eat graham crackers to keep from falling asleep. I showed up to the place where one of my parents was supposed to get married. I was wearing a nice dress and shoes and had my hair all done, but I had gotten all dressed up like that a couple days ago and had been preoccupied with the witch thing and I was sort of falling apart now. The place they were getting married was a French resort, and there were little birds hopping around and music playing. The quaintness of it was kind of nauseating. I sat in line with some other women and we talked about how I could fix my hair.
