Author's Note:
This is the Prologue to my first Crossover Fanfiction. Do take into account that I am not William Shakespeare, and therefore, the writing is not spectacular. This is just meant to get you somewhat introduced to the first two protagonists, and get a slight feel of what you can expect (at least for this part of the story).Please, provide as much critique as you can, so I can improve on my skills and make your journey through this long and [hopefully] epic journey fun, and not disastrous. ;)
Many Thanks! Enjoy!

The stars shined brightly, dancing across the skies. The trees swayed peacefully in the wind, their leaves whispering grace. All was serene, without a single disturbance. That is, until a large spacecraft shot across the sky. Like a hurtling metal asteroid, it crashed violently in the dense forest. With that alone, the silence had been broken, and the air was chilled, not with cold, but the chill of evil and fear.
Two Fair-skinned and blond-haired children, a boy about 10, and a girl about 12, quickly left the fallen shuttle and ran into the woods. They ran so fast, the ground hardly touched their feet. As the siblings ran and ran, so did a dark and shadowy figure.
The girl stopped and looked back at it, concentrating really hard on it. Suddenly, a tree fell, as if like some strong force pushed it over, and it landed directly on top of the shady being. As the ghoulish figure was being crushed, it let out a piercing shriek, and both the children had to hold their ears tight from the deafening howl. And then, all was quiet, as if nothing had happened.
"That was too close, Fina. You could have been killed," exclaimed the younger of the two to his older sister.
The sister, Fina, shot the boy a look, and retorted, "Jaci, don't be a child anymore. Mom and Dad are not here to hold your hand, so you need to toughen up!" She began to walk off, with quite an attitude. Jaci looked at Fina. He did not give a look of anger or hatred, but of sorrow. Jaci, although young, was rather wise for his age. No, he wasn't smart, but he was wise, and he was soft. Fina, on the other hand, was a more jagged figure: tough, persistent, and sly. She treated Jaci rough, but always was there for him when he needed her.
"Are you coming or not?" yelled Fina. Jaci snapped back to reality, and quickly caught up with his sister. The two were subtle, but quick, when they traversed the dense and dark forest. What were minutes felt like hourse, as shadows danced across the trees, and the eerie feeling, like someone was watching, kept hold of the two children. Of course Jaci was scared, yet Fina only showed a look of determination. Jaci always noticed how his sister never showed much emotion. He admired her strength, and he always looked up to her. If only she could feel the same way about herself…
