Angels Cry

Chapter 1: Prologue

Hitomi's long, braided, sandy brown hair flowed down past her waist as the

breeze blew it softly. Her emerald green eyes glistened in the sunlight while she

watched the sun slowly fade away behind the hills. The Mystic Moon hung in the

sky with its child glowing brightly beside it. The light little by little left the sky and

now only the Mystic Moon and its child illuminated the light in the sky. Hitomi

turned around and quickly started to walk back to her village. It was a small village

called Besaid located in between Fanelia and Austria. Her village may have been

small but it had the supplies the people needed and also had many beautiful places

to go to.

Hitomi walked into her cottage and washed her hands before she sat down at

the dining table with her parents and brother. "So what are we eating tonight

mother?" Hitomi asked as she wiped her hands on her already dirty peasant dress.

"You will not eat until you wash up and have a change of clothes." Her mother said

shooing her away from the table. Hitomi groaned and mumbled, "But I'm hungry

and I need some strength in order to do my chores." Her mom laughed and told her

to change her clothes and wash up later.

"Mother! I'm going to go to Danielle's house! I'll be back later!" Hitomi

yelled as she walked out the door being pulled by Danielle. "Come on! Hurry up

Hitomi!" She said still pulling Hitomi by the arm. "Bye Mom!" Hitomi finally shut

the door and tried to pull out of Danielle's death grip. "Come on Hitomi! You're too

slow. I told Yukari and Tori that we'd be meeting them at 12:30. AND IT'S

ALREADY 12:49!" Hitomi giggled and then started running to Yukari's house. "Is

this fast enough! You can't catch me!" She teased Danielle sticking out her tongue.

When she turned around she bumped into someone hard. "Hey! I'm sorry. I didn't

mean to.. Here let me." She stood up and dusted her dress off as she looked up to

the man she had bumped into. "Oh my gods."

She was staring into dark red eyes. She quickly dropped back to her knees

and bowed. "I'm sorry, your majesty." She said while averting her eyes and looking

for Danielle at the same time. Danielle was too bowing before the prince before them

afraid to move. The prince had crimson eyes and blue spiky hair that grew out long

at the bottom. "Please get up. I don't like it when people call me your majesty".

Please stand up." Hitomi and Danielle stood up slowly in awe. "Lord Folken.

Forgive me for running into you." Hitomi said still averting her eyes. He smiled a

warm smile and heard his mother, Queen Varie, calling for him from the carriage.

He turned around to face his mother and then back to the Hitomi that wasn't there

anymore. "Hmmm.. Where did they go?"

Hitomi and Danielle were gasping for air when they got to Yukari's house.

"Yuki? Tori? We're.. Here." Danielle said still gasping for oxygen. "Damn.

What happened to you? Ya'll look like you just ran into a Dragon." Tori said

handing them a glass of water. "Close. More like. we ran into.. ONE OF THE

PRINCES OF FANELIA!" Hitomi said finishing up the water and throwing her

arms around. "What!?!?! Are you serious?! You're just kidding with me.. Right?"

Tori had a shocked expression on her face when Yukari walked in the room. "What

happened? Did your father betroth you to Allen of something?" So Hitomi and

Danielle explained the entire story to Yukari and Tori.

Hitomi went back up on the hill to watch the sunset again. The sky went

from blue, to purple, to red, to orange, and then to pink, until it finally died out. The

cliffs were Hitomi's favorite place to visit, she absolutely loved it up there. She

continued to sit on the rock and look out towards the sky until she heard a ruffling

noise in the bushes. She quickly turned around. "Who's there?" Then everything

went black....
