A blur of black and white could be seen as the blur made its way to the room. Once it stopped moving, one could see it was a girl of 18 with pale blonde hair, pale skin and two bright green eyes. She wore a simple black dress with a white ribbon on her waist. She was beautiful, a face that rivaled angels; what really made her rather breathtaking though, was the fact take she was an angel-with large white wings that darkened to a dull gray near the ends.
"Who is it Mum? Who's the newbie?" asked the girl ecstatically, jumping up and down with a large smile, "I wanna meet the newbie!"
The said mother looked at her daughter with the same green eyes, although her eyes were giving the girl a stern look. Her skin could be considered an impossible shade of white, with pink lips and red hair that had silver tips. The woman's own wings ruffed up at her daughter's sudden appearance.
"She's still in the transformation sequence Flora," the mother then gave a soft smile at her daughter and gestured her to the bed, "but it should be done soon."
Flora ran to the bed and frowned as she saw an outline of a woman made of silver sand. "When may I see her face?"
"When she awakes of course!"
That wasn't enough for Flora. She needed to know if this was her friend. That last friend she's been waiting for.
"Are her memories in the Vault?"
"Of course! That's the-"the mother stopped and glared at her daughter. "You are NOT looking through her memories!"
"But Mum!"
"No 'buts'! You know how I feel about that!" chastised the woman, pointing a finger at her. "Memories are a private matter and-"
"But what if it's her mum…"
Her mother stopped and looked back at the silhouette. She knew how long her daughter had been waiting for her friend.
"She's the last one from that dimension mum. If you won't let us see for me then…" she hesitated, "do it for Donny."
With a sigh, the mother nodded her head and watched as her daughter smiled in triumph and sprinted out of the room.
Flora ran and ran to her brother. "DONNY! PORCO DIRETTO FRATELLO MIO! WHERE ARE YOU!?"
She heard the cry of a baby and ran toward it. Flora found her brother, Donny, rocking a small bundle in his arms.
Her twin brother glared at her with the same green eyes, though his more piercing than bright, as his messy blonde hair stuck to the back of his neck and his wing ruffled in annoyance.
Flora grinned slightly; he brother, although her twin, looked the age of 21 while she appeared as a 16-year-old. In their world, you age as quickly as you mature and stop aging at the appearance of 21. And one could see very clearly who the more serious twin was and who the mischievous one was.
"Can't you go through one night without waking my child." He hissed at his sister, but looked fondly at his bundle in his arms.
Flora smirked, "Well, you know. I just thought you'd like to know that we have a newbie from the Spiral coming." She snickered at his face when he heard her. "And I thought you'd like to know if it was her or not… but con-"
"Is it her?" he asked, hope glittered in his eyes.
"Well, no…" she admitted, but grinned "But Mum said we can look through the Vault and see if the Newbie is her."
Donny scoffed and rolled his eyes. "I find that hard to believe, coming from you."
"Do you wanna know if it's her or not?"
Donny nodded his head firmly and set the bundle in a crib. "Fine let's go."
Both left for the Vaults. Now, you must be wondering what the Vaults are. Well, the Vaults are a single chamber in each kingdom that contains small glowing orbs. Each of these orbs is the memories of a citizen of that kingdom. Most found these orbs to be rather personal of course and a law was decided that none could see the memories of a person without his or her permission. However, there were exceptions at times…
"Okay! Where would it be?" mused Flora as she and Donny stepped in a single around room that had four wide shelves on the walls; they spiraled endlessly to the roof as Flora stepped in the middle of the room. The sign on the floor was one of a gold star with a white moon peering behind it.
"Thank the Gods that these are ordered by date." muttered Donny as the shelves span around them until they stopped at a single orb on a shelf.
"That must be the newbie's!" Flora reached for the orb, which was a white with a single red rose in it. "A rose.. It must be her…"
Donny held Flora's hand and sighed. "Ready?"
Flora' smiled and nodded her head. "Ready." She tapped the orb and their vision went white.
Yay I'm done! I'm not sure it I want to have an actual story, maybe a short one. But here you are anyway! Tell me how it's going please! Review, fav and follow porfabode. (Can't spell Spanish for the life of me _)
