This is a revised version of the 1st chapter. Actually, this is more of a
prologue than anything else. Don't expect much until you get to the next
chapter. Enjoy!
As a Mega crawler hit Carlie, she fell backwards hitting her head onto a tree stump... hard. "Oww!" She screamed. At this point, Carlie was covered in blood, some of it hers, the other belonging to the creatures of the forest. As Carlie lay there the Mega Crawler was getting ready to hit her one last time. This could've very well been the end. She knew it. Her friends weren't with her anymore. It's not like Duran or Lise could save her at the moment. Not even Kevin.
'Kevin? Where are you?' She asked herself. Out of all of her friends, Kevin was the one she missed the most. He went through the same pain as she did. He was the only one who understood her at the time. The others didn't understand why Carlie use to cry so much at night. But Kevin was always there to comfort her.
The Crawler charged at Carlie, as she braced herself. But it suddenly stops in its tracks as it hears a ferocious, even terrifying, howl. 'Huh?' Carlie thought to herself, too weak to actually speak the word.
Out of the tall bushes, Kevin and Karl appear and tear the monster to shreds. The battle itself was too quick for Carlie to have really saw. It looked more like a lightning flash ripping the thing in half. "Carlie! You okay?" the half-beast asked concerned for his fallen friend. He took out some Royal Honey and fed it to her.
As Carlie at some, she felt instantly revitalized, her wounds clearing up, restoring her energy. "Yum! Thanks" Carlie said, now recovered from her lying form. "Why are you in the fairy forest?" Carlie asked curiously. She couldn't help but feel like her wish was instantly answered.
"Kevin and Karl must travel before becoming monk. We travel for many days. Why you here?" Kevin asked, as usual, making a few grammar mistakes.
"I came to see mama and papa" Carlie said, still a little depressed thinking about how her loved ones are all dead. First her parents, then Heath, and earlier on that year, her grandfather died of old age. The only one she's got now is . . . Kevin? She never really thought of it until now. But Kevin was the only one she had now, her other friends are all busying themselves with other things. Duran with fighting, Angela with practicing magic, Hawk with stealing and Lise with running her country.
"Sorry. You go back to temple now?"
"Yup!"
"Can we come too? Kevin need to visit temple anyway"
"Really? Sure you can come!"
"Thank you" With this, they head off, to an area where Flammie can get them.
Next chapter will have more of an active romance, and more of the plot will be revealed. Just think of this as a prologue.
