I quickly sat up as if I had just woken from a bad dream. Panting and sweaty I looked around with blurred vision while blinking a few times to clear it. I tried to take a look at what surrounded me, but I didn't recognize the place. It was a small hut maybe about the size of four small rooms. I looked around the room I was in, which seemed to be a small yet vary cozy bedroom filled with soft looking animal fur that was made into covers, blankets, and small pillows. I sat in the middle of all this fur on a small soft fur pallet on the floor.
After I took in my surroundings I tried to stand up but suddenly a numb pain took over my whole body causing me to gasp loudly and face-plant onto the floor with a loud thud. "Oww..." I groaned out in pain then I heard a small giggle. I then looked up to see a small boy around the age of twelve, looking down and smiling at me. I look at him with pleading eyes "help me?" I asked and that's when I realized how soft, weak, and dry-toned my voice sounded.
Just how long have I been out and not ate of drank anything I asked to myself as the young boy helped me up to sit back down on the pallet I was on before and lay back down. "Thanks.." I said softly and the boy nodded then skipped out of the room happily, then a few minutes later a young woman walked in.
She is beautiful I thought to myself as I took in her appearance. She look to be around her early to mid-twenties with knee length dark blue hair, deep crystal blue eyes, porcelain like skin, and absolutely no flaws in her skin or figure, she also had a flame red tattoo of a dragon skull in the middle of her forehead.
She noticed me staring at her and smiled sweetly at me "Hello young man my name is Azure Luna it is nice to meet you" she said in a smooth yet graceful and velvety voice "nice to meet you too I am... I'm... Shiro, Shiro Ryuu" I replied almost forgetting my name for a moment. She nodded then walked over to me and kneeled next to me as she felt my forehead "looks like your fever went down but your still look and sound horrible" "I feel horrible too... so do you think you could explain what happened to me?" "Oh right, when my familiar and I found you..." that's when my mind slowly trialed off and I had a flash back.
The year was 2085 and I was walking through an old abandoned village that had dirt and dust flying around everywhere and all the houses were warn done, broken, or burnt. I looked at the town sign "Lativonni" it read I've heard of it before, it's supposed to be the most dangerous ghost town since medieval times, to be forever feared, cold, alone, empty, broken, and shut out of sight. Just like I had been for many years because of the powers I possess.
As I walked the road I held a hand to my stomach for I had not eaten in days. I was starving and weak as I looked for a place where I could rest and find food. Suddenly I fell to me knees and doubled over in intense pain until I had finally passed out from my hunger.
When I came to again Azure was still talking. When she paused for a moment she stared at me for a few seconds then spoke "enough with the story telling for now, you must be hungry" I nodded and she clapped her hand once and the boy from before was at the door "this here it Rei he is my familiar" the boy had a small figure with jade green hair and mint green eyes his skin was pale and looked like cloth porcelain, he looked like if I touched him he would break into a million pieces.
