About the Story
I suppose that if this site was a book, then this section would be the summary on the back of the cover or on the inside flap.This story is basically about a little girl trying to destroy all her velvet creations. Let me clarify.
Velvet Bear is a girl who finds out that she has the ability to turn the velvet crafts she makes animate. Her velvet dress floats around like a ghost, her teddy bear (although she didn't make it, she's had it so long that it became animate) walks around and talks, and more.
It turns out that each velvet item is slowly taking away at her soul, and soon enough, she'll be made of velvet, too! Just when Velvet figures out how to destroy her velvet things, they run off! Now she has to find them, too!

Newest Chapter
Every time I add a chapter, I'll post it piece by piece until I finish it and can move on to write the next one. Anything in italics is dialogue.Velvet's Point of View
Okay, first of all, yes, my name is Velvet. Second, my last name is Bear. I know, I know...Velvet Bear. My parents thought it would be funny to name me that. They even bought me a velvet bear. It's purple and really soft, but it kind of feels like it's mocking me. The way it smiles—which really looks like a smirk in certain lighting—and the way it stares at me with those dead eyes is not only mocking, but creepy.
But anyway, I'm getting off-topic. Today was Saturday. Every Saturday, I was given an assignment to make something that included velvet. It was a tradition that my mom started 5 years ago, when I was 9. She thought that since my name was Velvet, I should be able to use velvet well.
My first assignment was a velvet dress. I remember it well. I used velvet that was a deep red color, and I didn't do a very good job. One sleeve was longer than the other, it was way too big for me, and the hem was a mess. The stitches were also big and sloppy.
I'm getting off-topic again. I apologize. So, today's assignment was to sew a velvet blanket with an embroidered picture of a cluster of flowers. I chose blue velvet this time, and I sat down at my desk, beginning to cut the fabric.
Hey, what are you doing? whispered a voice from somewhere. I whipped around. I was the only person in the room. I sighed, deciding that it was my imagination.
I asked you already! What are you doing? demanded the whispery voice. I spun around in my chair and looked around.
Where are you? I asked nervously. I heard a rustling behind the trash can, and out came my old velvet bear, standing on its two feet and waving its arms.
I'm right here! it called. I jumped. Maybe I'm just tired, and I'm hallucinating? It's me, your teddy bear! Let me explain. Basically, after you've reached a certain number of velvet creations, your items turn to life! It runs in the family. Well, sort of. Since your name is Velvet, your velvet creations become animate. Don't you wonder why your Uncle Basil never cooks with basil? His food would run off!
I sat there, completely freaked out and convinced I was dreaming.
Helloooo? You there? Earth to Velvet! The thing is, to make an inanimate object animate, it needs to take a bit of your soul. That's why you've been so tired lately! The items were getting ready to wake up! Here's the catch—if these keeps going on, you'll turn into a velvet bear yourself! Your hair will slowly start turning purple, and your eyes black!
I decided to go along with this, since I was sure I was sleeping.
So, why should I believe you? I asked.
Hm, I don't know...BECAUSE I WILL KEEP YOU FROM TURNING INTO A TEDDY BEAR! It's not all that great, you know, it said.
I raised an eyebrow. Um, when do I get started, then?
My teddy bear shrugged. Maybe tomorrow. I'm tired. See you later! He crawled into a corner, and I sat, dazed. I REALLY hope this is a dream.
Chapter 1 will be continued later.
