I
lived capturing faeries and holding them prisoners in small Pickled
Olive jars. I tormented young NeoPets in the battledome and lived as
a loner my whole life.
Some
don't think of my as being kind, or young. But, I was. Long ago.
Infact, if you're willing to stick around long enough, I'll tell you.

"Balthazar,
get in here now. I can't clean up this NeoHome all by myself you
know! Don't you car about anything?" My mother, Myrinna's voice
glared in my head as I groggily stretched and opened my eyes.
It
was 5:37 in the morning.
I
whined but dragged myself down the creaky steps in our Mystery Island
home. Thanks to my father's former colleague we got to live in the
brand new Mystery Island (now do you realise how old I am?). Of
course, my father was well, dead, he had died when I was a small 247
hours.
As
soon as I reached the kitchen, the smell of cooked Mynci filled my
nose. I sniffed the air with delight and was met by my mother's
glare.
"I
can't do everything around here you know. It's not all about you,
Balthazar! I have a life to live as well as you! You have to realise
I can't do everything for you. You're almost 100 days old."
"I
know, Mother."
"I
know you do." She kissed the top of my head and in a softer tone
asked me what I wanted for breakfast.
"I
guess whatever." She looked at me. "Cooked Mynci," I
replied, sliding into the bamboo chair. She smiled at me in that
mothering smile that could melt any heart. I grinned a lopsided grin.
That
would be the last time I saw her.
A/N: Short.
Want me to continue? This was SUPPOSED to be a one chapter story but
my Neopets are making me drawl on. So, read and review and me a good
Neopian =D
