A/n- Hello, everyone! Well, yesterday I freaked out because I thought I lost my flashdrive and in my darkest hours I wrote this fanfic. Now, if my Moon's Inheritance readers are reading this and going "Wth? You bitch! Why aren't you updating the story you wrote in 2008?"
Uh...yeah, working on the next chapter and trying to get back the obsession I had for Oban Star Racers. I am looking at my outline and figuring out how to finish writing the next chapter because its half finished.
Back to this new fanfic, I had this idea floating in my head for a while and thought to post it up. Though I recently got back into reading OSR fanfic, I haven't see stories such as this one but I could be wrong.
Another thing is that this story is influenced by Howl's moving Castle (movie), The Beauty and the Beast (or that Beastly movie but I haven't seen it yet.), and The Princess and the Frog. However, though it takes bits, nonetheless it will be (I hope) an original fanfic of mine.
This will be an Eva/OC story but should I ever get to the sequel (-.-') it will then turn to Eva/Aikka.
Enjoy!
The Reluctance of Rising from the Ashes
Summary- Two years after Oban, Eva needs to get her life in order. When she is forced to go on the run thanks to a misunderstanding, Eva must help a disgraced prince break his curse and get his life together all the while figuring out what she wants to do. What worries Eva is the fact that she not only has a short amount of time to help the prince, she may also just have a thing for princes. Eva/oc
Prolouge- Avalonia
In the galaxy of Earth there were not eight planets but nine*. Hidden in the shadows of the galaxy was Avalonia.
Avalonia once touched a small portion of Earth for a while and soon drifted away from Earth, not liking the dark greed of its people but it had been enough as legends throughout centuries told about the isle of Avalon with its priestesses, its magical presence.
That isle of Avalon was only an isle of Avalonia. The planet was like Earth, only more beautiful as its occupants took what they needed only and practiced magic that would have made the Earthian witches, enchantresses, wizards, warlocks, and etc. flush with envy. As would any other species.
Though Avalonia was close to Earth, it was never discovered by nosy astronauts like that Crog situation for it was heavily guarded by magical barriers.
Magical barriers that concealed its location and protected the Avalonian people from attacks. Only the royals were the only people who had enough power to manage the barriers.
It is rumored that one royal had been enough for the barriers and that long ago; the King or Queen had been that one. But soon the jealous royal siblings, the aunts, the uncles, the cousins, rose up against their monarch and demanded equality. Why should the monarch have everything after all? After a long battle, the monarch conceded and the planet lived in harmony for many centuries.
Until now.
The current rulers of Avalonia had been lucky. Theirs had been a marriage of convenience that later turned into true love. Back then, Queen Lyai had needed a consort, King Eshma had wanted to be king. Luck continued in their marriage as they were given five princes and two princesses. The princes themselves were envy of any king as all of them stood out in the kingdom. Had they to choose which one to be the Heir, it would have been difficult. However, the Heir was the first-born son and he was…..perfect to say the least.
However, tragedy stroke and the fourth prince, beloved by the entire planet, was forced to flee. Disgraced and his inheritance taken away, he fled to Earth, the closest planet. Unfortunately, he had not been quick enough and a curse shattered him. Still he managed all the same to enter Earth and hide away from his enemies.
He was a prince of Avalonia, used to the luxury of the Palace and the eyes of the people. He is not used to being poor and ignored. He is now a street person of Earth, sleeping under bridges and scavenging trash for food.
Two months later, he slumps down in a dark alley in the Earthian capital and sleeps deeply. A few hours later, he is awaken by the slamming of a door.
It is here that the tale begins.
A/n- Well? What did you think? The name Avalonia is the same thing as Avalon but its in Latin I think. Thank you for reading!
*- If you are old like me (lol) then you have grown up learning nine planets in our galaxy. However last year, they were saying on the news that the discovered either more planets or that Pluto was never a planet but had to be a- well whatever they call it now. Either way, the news was that we now have eight planets. Just so no one is confused or I'm probably the one who is. Please tell me if I'm wrong.
