Unknown Soul

In the darkness I am but one of nothing,

I am without a home or a path to follow,

However far I run I don't get anywhere,

I am lost in a sea of shadows and loss.

I am nothing in this world of misery,

And I have no hope of ever escaping,

Into the light of laughter and joy,

I remain on my island of cold sorrow.

Within my heart I find not happiness,

I am empty and hollow without room,

For the light that shines so brightly above,

I am bound to the dark as it is to me.

My love has shrivelled and my tears dried,

My joy has faded along with memories,

Of laughter and songs and all the peace,

I am the unknown soul of misery and hate.

Flare P.O.V

I looked up as I was taken into the Leala Orphanage, named after some nun who found the place. I noticed the other orphans stop and stare at me as I was walked down the hall by one of the nuns who worked at the orphanage. Usually, I didn't care if people looked at me funny, but today was different somehow. I could feel a presence, one very familiar to me. Though I had no recollection of who or what it was. In fact, I had virtually no memories at all. All I remembered were little pieces of the past. I would remember one thing about a person I once knew, but I would be missing something else too. I remembered my father's voice, but not his face. I remembered the faces of people I knew to be my friends, but not their names. I remembered my sister's name, but not her face or voice or anything else, except that she was lost somewhere. I remembered someone else too, silent figure in the setting sun, holding put their hand to me, but no matter how fats I run, I can never reach them. I remembered one thing about myself also, that my name was Flare, but nothing else. I looked over at two little girls playing; they seemed to only be around the age of seven. They too looked up at me and recoiled in fear of me. I showed no emotion towards them nor anyone else, by then I had gotten used to being feared for the way I looked. My pure, blood-red eyes could send a man mad if I stared at him long enough, which I had. My long tangled black hair gave me a wilder and dangerous look, and my ghostly pale skin made it seem as though I had never been in the sun before. I didn't blame the children for being afraid of me. I didn't blame anyone in fact, but I did blame myself for not paying attention when it mattered. I had lost everything in the blink of an eye, and now I couldn't remember what it was that I had lost.

I looked up as the nun lead me into a small room. I examined the interior. Boring. The room was carpeted with an ugly grey coloured rug, there were very plane looking chairs cluttered around a table, and very painfully ugly looking portrait of an old woman, non-smiling hanging up on the wall in front of the painfully grey fireplace, "Please take a seat, I will send in sister Olivia in a moment." The nun that had brought me to the ugly room said smiling, and then vanished out of the chipped wooden door.

I sat for what felt like hours, talking to Sister Olivia. She told me about the way things worked around the orphanage, and about who I should go to if I wanted to ask a question or talk and all that sort of stuff. After she had left, I stayed in the little ugly room for another few minutes. I thought about how, even Sister Olivia seemed frightened of me.

I didn't look at the door or who walked inside. All I knew was that it wasn't one of the nuns. Whoever had walked in had runners on, and there were three of them. I turned slightly, showing that I wasn't dead or anything. I heard the faint sound of breathing and a quiet whisper about my being some sort of demon child. I turned my head fully to get a better looked at the three brats. All three boys jumped back in fear. They looked around ten, my age I think. The boy who stood closest to the door had short dark brown hair and deep blue eyes, he wore a white sleeveless hoodie over a dark yellow, long sleeved shirt, blue denim jeans and light blue runners with dark blue streaks. The second boy, who was standing further in the room, had shoulder length dark blond hair and deep red eyes. He wore a black t-shirt with light blue jeans and brown boots. The third boy who stood just outside the door seemed more agitated by my presence. He had short black hair and deep green eyes. His skin was slightly tanned and he looked a little younger than the other two, nine maybe? He wore a dark blue long sleeved shirt with grey shorts and white runners.

I blinked at them, still not showing any emotion. Because there was virtually no emotion to show. I turned fully in my chair and just stared at the boys. I didn't say anything, they didn't say anything. I sighed slightly and sat back in my chair. I closed my eyes and waited for the three boys to leave. But they didn't. I heard one of them walk over. I opened my eyes and looked up at meet the face of the blond boy. He smiled down at me and held out his hand, "You wanna play?" he asked grinning.

I blinked but didn't say anything. I heard one of the other boys say, "Aphrodi what are you doing? You don't even know her name yet!" I turned to see that it had been the boy with the brown hair who had spoken. I looked back at the blond boy.

"Oh, sorry! I'm Aphrodi! What's your name?" blond boy asked me. I leaned back a little in my chair.

I just stared at him until finally for the first time since I had gotten to the Leala Orphanage, I spoke up, "Flare. My name is Flare." I muttered.

Aphrodi beamed at me, "It is great to meet you milady Flare." He laughed, "So, do you wanna come play with us?" he asked and again held out his hand.

I hesitated, "You're not afraid of me?" I asked shyly.

"Why, am I supposed to be?" he asked me.

I smiled, and took his hand. Aphrodi smiled back at me and pulled me up to my feet. Or the first time since I had gotten to the orphanage, I felt like I belonged. I quickly became very good friends with Aphrodi, Dai and Mika. They were my best friends. But everything soon changed when Dai and Mika were adopted. So soon it was only me and Aphrodi left.

Byron gripped my hand tightly as he and I waved goodbye to Nathan and Jordan as they hoped into the cars of their new families. I faked a smile, which faded very quickly after I could no longer see the cars. I dropped to my knees and cried. I felt Aphrodi put his arm around me and say, "Don't worry. I won't leave you alone here." I looked up at him and nodded. Liar. Only a few weeks after Mika and Dai were taken away, Aphrodi had been adopted as well. I watched as Aphrodi was dragged into a car by a tall man. I stood silently as I watched him leave. And again, I was all alone. The other children never came near me. Aphrodi, Mika and Dai had been my only friends in the Leala Orphanage.

Very soon almost all of the children were adopted out of the orphanage, until only I remained. A freak of nature unwanted and unloved by everyone around her. I had nothing, I was nothing. I Was an empty vessel looking for something to fill the void. And that was how I stayed for the next six years.

Six years later…

Flare P.O.V

I rested my head against the bus window and stared blankly out into the busy streets. Fucking assholes. They all had perfect lives to live, and I envied each and every one of them. I pulled by black hoodie further over my head so that no one could see the hate in my eyes. I pulled out a pen and wrote the word Death on my hand. It was more of an option, a goal. Finally, I had a goal in life, and that was to end it as quickly as possible. I reached up and pushed down on the whatever that made the bus stop, I never felt the need to learn what the fuck it was called. I jumped up and waited for the bus to stop, when it did, I quickly pushed my way off and walked very quickly down the street. Inazuma Town. What a fucking stupid name! I shook my head and looked down again as I walked. I was, however, shocked when I bumped into someone. I looked up to see that I had walked into some kid with a stupid orange head band around his head, brown hair and creepy chocolate brown eyes, 'What where you're going moron!" I snarled pushing myself up and off the ground. I brushed myself off and glared at brunet boy and his friends who ran over.

"Endou!" some boy with creepy looking goggles and dread locks said helping brunet boy up. There were two others boys two, one with what looked to me like white-blond hair and his eye browns resembled lightning bolts a little. And another kid with blue hair.

"Hey, what's with the attitude?" blue boy asked me rudely.

I stared at him from under my long tangled mess of black hair that had fallen over both my eyes. I brushed my hair out of my face, revealing the scar that ran down from my forehead, through my left eyes, and down to my chin. My blood-red eyes showed more hatred than I intended for them to, but it didn't matter because the fucking moronic boys all just stared at me, and I couldn't tell if they were afraid, or terrified of me, "Pathetic brats!" I spat.

I stormed off before any of them could speak. People jumped out of my way as I walked, they stared or screamed or even tried to hit me with something. I didn't care anymore. I punched a metal frame before I noticed that I had walked all the way onto some bridge. I looked down to see a bunch of kids playing soccer, or well training. I saw the brunet boy in the goals, blue boy kicking the ball to goggle face, and spiky talking to some guy with a shaved head. There were others down there too, but I didn't care. I stood there and watched them, "Lame." I muttered. I saw blue boy do some move called 'Dance of the Wind God' and spiky do something called 'Dragon Tornado' with bald kid. I shook my head and blinked when someone yelled up at me. I looked down to see the brunet boy had noticed me.

"Hey, aren't you the girl I bumped into just before?" he yelled at me.

"And what if I am kid?" I shouted back. I shook my head and flung my legs over the railing of the bridge. The soccer players on the field looked up at me a some gasped when I jumped. I landed flat on my feet and stood up without getting hurt or anything. I walked over, the sound of my black leather boots hotting the ground echoed in my ears and I felt the wind pinch at my knees through my ripped black jeans. I raised my arms, making me look like a scarecrow, "did you want to say something?" I asked.

Brunet boy just stared at me, "Now, calm down here guys." Some kid with glasses muttered, 'I'm sure we can settle this."

I shot him a deadly look, the same one that killed a man, no joke, "What was that?" I snarled. Glasses kid fell backwards, unconscious, not dead.

Some kid with really long grey hair and some girl helped glasses kid up. I looked back at brunet boy and snarled, "Who are you anyway?" spiky asked me.

I looked at him, but didn't say anything. He glared at me and I stared to laugh a little under my breath. I shook my head and said, "Why the fuck am I even here?" I blurted out, "In blind rage I stormed all the way down here, though I don't even know where the fuck here is?" I growled at myself and turned on my heel, 'Sorry for disturbing you brats." I spat, "I'll be leaving." I said rudely and started off.

"Wait!" someone yelled at me from behind. I turned and growled, looking for the face to match the voice. Just then everyone looked at me like I was crazy or something. I blinked, noticing that none of them had said a word. I shook my head and began to walk again. Again someone shouted, but I ignored them. I felt someone pull at my arm. I glance back to meet the eyes of some kid with over grown blond hair and red eyes. He was panting, "Wait." He muttered.

I stared at girly boy, 'What the fuck do you want brat?" I snarled.

Girly boy sighed, "Aphrodi, do you know her?" blue boy asked.

Girly boy smiled at me. Aphrodi. I thought, wait! It couldn't be? I just stared at girly boy, unblinking and unmoving. He let go of my arm, "Flare?" he said my name.

"No way…" I muttered. I looked up, my eyes meeting his, "Impossible…" I uttered.

I saw blue boy, spiky and brunet boy walk over, "You know her?" brunet boy asked.

Girly boy nodded, "Yeah, I couldn't forget those eyes, never in my life could I forget them. Flare, I'm sorry I didn't come back for you." He said softly.

I couldn't move. I just stared up at him, and saw that he was trying to hold back tears. Were they of joy? I couldn't tell, I could never tell how people were feeling towards me when it wasn't fear or hatred. I blinked when he hugged me. Why was he hugging me? Why did he say sorry for not coming back for me? Why was he crying? Why did I care about him so much? Please, someone give me the answers.
