To Begin…
From birth I was aware of what was happening around me. I knew that I was unwelcome among the ice women. An Imigo, they would have called me, if they had found me. The name was still bestowed on me by the woman who birthed me. My mother I could call her not. Instead of me being found, my half brother was.
"This Imigo, this boy of fire will slaughter us all." The old woman had said, as I was whisked off into the shadows. My gold eyes found the wine red of my brothers as I passed. I felt the same feeling as him as our eyes met. Hatred, and longing to kill them there. If I had had the power, I would have slaughtered all of the ice demons then and there. I wanted to. My mothers hands burned through the warded bandages she had put on me. She deserved it, and she knew that she did.
The cliff looked cold and uninviting as my mother strode towards it. I narrowed my eyes into a harsher glare then before. A cold golden blue jewel was put into my bandages.
"When you are older, come here and end our pathetic lives, Hiru. Come to finish the revenge you deserve to give us." The weakling then lifted me over the cliff. I looked down, understanding what she was about to do.
"Sorry
my child."
She let me go.
Blasted demons…
An hour later I opened my eyes to find myself looking at a pair of dull, black eyes. A demon that I could have slaughtered even in my poor state. I waited, knowing that perhaps the creep would be of some use.
The fool reached for the jewel I still held in my small hand. He pulled, with no success on getting it from me. It was my life. As he pulled harder, the more I resisted. Finally, I was fed up with tug-of-war, so I bit him. I soon spit out again, as the demon howled in pain. Blood if a demon tasted horrible. The whimsy demon pulled me to the leader of the clan he was in. When we reached the camp, the leader was occupied with another bundle of warded bandages. I smirked as he howled in pain, waving a bitten and around as well.
"Boss, I found a pip-squeak with a jewel!" My demon said. The leader looked at me.
"Raining out of the sky, are they?" He reached for my jewel. I quickly summed him up as a thief. I remembered the horrible taste I had in my mouth from the last time I bit, so I ignited his hand in flame. He yelled again. "Give him to the alchemist!" The demon growled, causing me to be towed off again.
The next place I was able to see in detail was the ditch I was placed in. Rain fell and the ditch was flowing with waited. I was not pleased with the water in my face. The demon that had carried me everywhere yelled into the cave in front of me, then bolted in the other way. A blast of green light shot through the cave a second later and the demon collapsed in a yell of anguish. Out of the cave came limping a demon. On his body he wore a faded green long coat. Under the coat, he wore all black. His hand held a smooth wooden staff. Black hair fell in front of forest green eyes. His eyes caught mine. I must have been a funny sight. A wet bundle of warded bandages that didn't work, with gold eyes peering through with black and white hair showing out from the loosened bandages. I was dripping wet and pissed.
Our eyes were locked, his full of confusion. I glared hard, wishing I was a Telepath. My stomach then rumbled. We both blinked, and I flailed my hand (still holding the jewel), trying to get out of my cage. He walked over and picked me up. "A hungry little kid at my step. That is new." I accidentally hit him in the head with my jewel and I struggled to free myself from the soggy confinement I have been in for ever. I grunted in effort as he examined the jewel. "What's this?" I froze, holding the jewel in my sight. He reached his hand out to grab it. As his hand got nearer, I focussed more of my aura to protect it. He felt the heat, then drooped his hand. "Strong you are. Ill leave it alone." I grunted, and pulled my jewel to my chest. He laughed. "Ill care for ya. All ready you have been deserted. You are probably hell to care for. I'm sure you have a name, but you cannot speak yet, and I am no Telepath. Ill call you… Andonar." He took me inside the cave, with me scowling the whole time at my name.
So, what do ya think? Please r&r for me! Please…?
