---------- Chapter1---------- A Bad Day----------
Ring, ring
"Oh, who is it now" Orphen groaned and answered the phone for the twentieth time. (He actually counted o.o)
It was only 2:30 am and Orphen had been at a club until 1:00. (Thanks to Cleao) he hadn't got a wink a sleep since.
"Hello?" Orphen said quietly from his weariness.
"Hey! Do ya..."
Orphen hung up realizing it was Cleao... again. He sighed and went back to bed.
Ring, ring, ring, ring, ring
He let it ring and put a pillow on his face. It seemed like it never would stop ringing and when the answer machine finally answered he heard Cleao screaming at Orphen to pick up and threatening him. He finally got tired of it and disconnected the phone. He slowly smiled at the peace and quiet and closed his eyes. He almost fell asleep when he heard a knock on the door. He moaned again and went to the door. He opened the door and almost instantly shut it. It was Cleao and she looked angrier than ever before.
"Open this door right now!" she screamed.
"SHIT!" he quietly said to himself "I gotta get out."
He couldn't use the door that Cleao was about to break down and he franticly thought of a way to escape. He climbed out the fire exit and shut the window so she wouldn't notice if or should I say when she got in. He had a hard time climbing down the two-story house and quietly ran to a friend's house. (On the way he heard Cleao break down the door)
Knock, knock
"Just a sec.!" A familiar voice called.
Orphen waited outside as a young figure stumbled to the door.
"Oh, Orphe- Master!" Majik shouted in surprise.
"Hey" Orphen said in reply.
"What are you doing here?" Majik asked.
"Just hurry up and let me in. Oh, and if Cleao comes DON'T let her in or tell her I'm here." Orphen pushed his way in and ran up the stairs, going straight to Majik's room.
Majik was confused by his last command and ran up the stairs a few minutes after him. When he found Orphen he was sleeping on his bed. Majik smiled and just watched him breathing silently for a moment and quietly walked down the stairs.
--- 12:00 PM ---
"Orphen, Orphen, wake up, it's lunch time..."
Orphen opened his eyes to see Majik over him and shaking him.
"W-what? Where am I?" Orphen asked rather confused.
"Huh? You're at my house, remember? Early this morning you came barging into my house saying something about Cleao." Majik told him.
"CLEAO?! Is she here?!" Orphen shouted while shooting to his feet.
"Calm down Master! No she not here, though she did come by asking if I saw you, but I didn't tell her." Majik responded.
Orphen finally calmed and sat down on the bed. "Whew, that was close."
"Master I've been wanting to ask you, what did you do that made her so angry? She looked as if she was trying to kill you." Majik now had a concerned look on his face.
"I...I ...uh... hung up on her this morning around 2:30...and ...uh... and a little afterwards she came to my house and I shut the door in her face." Orphen was a little embarrassed.
"Oh that's it? Well anyway your lunch is ready. See ya down stairs." Majik trotted down the stairs while waving.
----- Brunch -----
Orphen suddenly feeling tired trudged downstairs to the lunch table. He sat down and ate his eggs and toast. (He has the same thing almost every day for lunch) Orphen looked up and noticed that Majik was watching him but the apprentice turned away trying to hide the fact.
"What? Majik I'm not stupid. Why where you watching me?" Orphen stared at him.
Majik was getting nervous and Orphen could tell then he said, "Well I just noticed something about you that I've never noticed before."
Orphen gave him a look like he doesn't know what he's talking about and went back to eating. Majik did the same and continued to stare at him. Orphen got sick and tired of it and started staring back. This continued for ten minutes or less then someone knocked at the door.
"I'll get it." Orphen said. He was glad something had interrupted the little staring contest.
"Wait!! No, no I'LL get the door, you sit down and eat." Majik commanded.
"Why? So you can spy on me while I'm eating without my knowledge of it? No."
Majik suddenly got panicky and he ran towards Orphen to stop him, but it was too late.
"Hell..." Orphen froze for a minute.
He slowly turned and looked at Majik with a deathly expression saying "If I make it through this I'll make sure you won't..." There at the door was Cleao she looked fine until she realized whom she was facing.
"HEY! Why are you here?! Majik! I thought you said that you wouldn't let him in and that you would call me if he came!" Cleao screeched.
Orphen backed up while her attention was on Majik, but when he tried to run she grabbed his shirt.
"Where do YOU think YOU'RE going?!
She turned back to Majik and Orphen quickly took his shirt off. Before she realized, he had already made it up the stairs. In her rage she followed him shouting for him to come back. Orphen still exhausted from that morning wasn't as fast and Cleao was hot on his tail. Majik soon came up the stairs shouting "RUN FOR YOUR LIFE!" Orphen heard and ran as fast as he could and ran into the bedroom. He quickly shut the door but when he went to lock it Cleao barged in and sent Orphen flying in to the wall. (Headfirst) All of a sudden Cleao froze and Majik caught up only this time he ran up to his master shouting "Hey Orphen? Are you alright?"
Orphen's sight was starting to blur and he responded while fighting to stay awake and stand up "Yeah, I- I'm just fine"
Orphen was able to stand while leaning against the wall and he was holding his head with his left hand. "Ow..."
"Cleao! What did you do?" Majik shouted as tears came to his eyes.
"What?! I didn't do a damn thing! I just walked in and he was like that!" She protested.
Orphen was now sitting on the floor but still holding his head. "Don't worry she didn't know I was there."
Orphen with the help of Majik and Cleao was able to get to bed, but he didn't really want to. Since he was too weak to argue he just went with it. Then he blacked out.
------ 4:00 ------
Orphen woke up with a major headache and felt as if his brain was scrambled like his eggs this morning. Also surprisingly woke up with Cleao sitting next to him asleep. He sat up and Majik entered the room. Majik overjoyed ran up and practically jumped on top of him as if playing dog pile, but instead hugged him as hard as he could almost choking him.
"Hey Majik get off I can't breath..."
"Sorry." Majik looked a little ashamed.
They had a quiet conversation as if not to disturb Cleao and when the conversation ended Majik started to stare just like at the table.
"Ok, what is it?" Orphen asked
Majik looked at the ground and blushed "Well... I don't know... it's just that..." he smiled "you..." Orphen looked at him impatiently "I..."
Anger filled Orphen's eyes "Spit it out!"
He spoke louder than he intended and woke Cleao. She jumped at the sight that Orphen was awake and just like Majik jumped on him and hugged his neck as hard as she could. He didn't see it coming and Cleao slapped him after the hug.
"That's what you get!"
Orphen looked down with the saddest eyes either has ever seen and he pushed both of them aside, leaving for home. In front of the door was his shirt where Cleao had dropped it when chasing him up the stairs and slowly he pulled it on. He opened the door and both Majik and Cleao ran to him trying to keep him from leaving.
"Get off me!!" Orphen shouted as Majik and Cleao both tried to keep hold of his arms.
"Hold him Majik I'll be right back." Cleao ran into the kitchen and came back with a big pan.
Majik didn't like the idea of hitting Orphen on the head with a frying pan, but he didn't want his master to leave just yet. Orphen panicked at the sight of Cleao just about to knock him out and in the nick of time he broke the hold Majik had on him and the pan missed. As soon as Orphen got it together (which was almost instantly) he ran as fast as he could. He didn't care were he was going just as long as they didn't catch him. He ran across the street and through someone's yard only to enter a forest. As he ran dodging trees and jumping fallen branches, he could hear his two and only friends chasing him through the woods.
"Orphen! Wait up!" The faint voice of Cleao was barely hearable.
Orphen could also hear Majik's voice but just like before it was faint. "Master! We won't hurt you!"
After hearing that Orphen started to slow down, but suddenly he remembered Cleao holding the pan ready to knock out her so called friend and Majik trying to hold him still so that she able to. He suddenly sped up remaking the distance that was between them that had been lost when he neared to a stop.
After hours of running Orphen was extremely thirsty, even more tired than before and could barely breath. He stopped and collapsed on the ground trying to catch his breath. He laid down and closed his eyes trying to think of what made him run away. When he was unable to find the answer he decided it would be easier to remember if he wasn't so tired, so he went to sleep.
------ 7:00PM------
Orphen woke up with aches and pains all over his body and was completely dehydrated. The sun was setting and he was in unfamiliar surroundings. He slowly stood up ignoring the pains. He swayed back and fourth a couple times but then caught himself on the tree he had slept under. Once he gained control he trudged off searching for water.
------ 7:30 ------
Orphen had been searching for water for a half hour or so. He had been thinking on how he got here and was unable to remember. The last thing he remembered was a door hitting him into a wall and waking up to happy faces, but everything else was a blur. It's on the tip of his mind, but can't seem to put his finger on it. Just then he heard something that brightened his mood a lot. (He wasn't very happy then) it was the sound of rushing water. It was nearby and that was all he could tell because he couldn't concentrate enough to approximate how much he would have to walk. (Because of the noise and thirst)
He followed the noise and it seemed to take forever, but when he got there he noticed a camp had been set up. No one was there so he thought that if he had a drink from the river they wouldn't mind. (If they didn't see him) He walked into the campsite going towards the river. He was about to drink when something came up and pushed him in the water. He climbed out thinking thank God these aren't rapids. He looked up to this huge dog snarling at him. He stood still on one knee staring into his eyes. He knew he shouldn't do that because he might provoke it to attack him, but for some reason he wasn't afraid of it.
They stood staring at each other for a couple minutes when a voice broke the silence and glares.
"Ceaser come here boy. Hey, you! What are you doing here? A hooded figure asked.
It was obviously a female because of the voice.
"I-I was just getting some water." Orphen stuttered.
She gave a bad look at the dog who shriveled away. "Sorry..." she said while removing her hood "my dog was only doing his job. Why are you out in the woods at such a late hour? It'll be pitch black by the time you make it to civilization. The nearest town is ten mils away."
"T-t-ten MILES?!!" Orphen suddenly shouted while standing up.
Just then he remember running as hard as he could looking back frequently as if he was running away.
He looked down and murmured "Oh, that's how I got here..."
"What? Did you loose your memory or something?" the female asked.
"Yes... no...wait..." Orphen couldn't decide how to explain it to her.
"Ok, lets have something to eat and figure out why you're out here."
The girl walked toward the campsite and started to cook dinner. She had long blonde hair (shoulder-blade length), hazel eyes, and the body was in shape. Orphen was surprisingly hungry and ate fast, but he was still neat. Orphen found the girl staring at him. (Just like Majik) As soon as he started to stare back she smiled.
"Okay, why is every one staring at me today?!" Orphen dropped his plate and held his head in frustration "First Majik starts staring at me for no apparent reason, Cleao is giving me death glares, and now some lady starts staring at me for who knows what?!"
"Sorry I didn't know and besides people stare for a reason. They may not want to tell you, but there is still a reason. Now, where do you come from?"
Orphen being lost in thought didn't answer for a couple minutes until her dog bit his hand. "OW! Oh, sorry, well I just moved into Cerin."
Even in the little light that was left of the sun he could tell she was amazed. "What?? That town is the furthest away! You must've been running out here since yesterday at dawn. "
Orphen was very confused about what she was talking about and answered, "How far away is it? I mean you can drop me off at my house before the night's over, right?"
She shook her head. "No, that town is 70 miles away."
"Then how did I get this far then?!!!!" Orphen asked pleadingly for the answer.
"I don't know that's what we're going to talk about now." She closed her eyes and started to think while her guest was sitting there wondering what she was waiting for.
"Okay, first thing's first I am Krystal, and this, you already know, is Ceaser. You are?" the woman asked very politely.
"Orphen..." he continued, "I didn't completely lose my memory just what happened after this accident."
She looked at him and when she noticed he stopped she said, "Well, continue..."
Orphen explained what had happened earlier with Cleao and Majik up until the point of hitting his head on the wall. She seemed to understand, but had a worried look on her face that irritated him.
She blinked and leaned back so that she was in a straight position. "I know why you lost you're memories after that, the impact on your head must've given you short-term memory loss, but sleep here for the night. I don't think it's permanent. It seems that you didn't hit your head right to make it last long. Ok, if you wake tomorrow and I ask you what happened tonight and you remember it's only temporary and you know what it is if you don't remember."
"Yeah" Orphen felt a little better that there's a chance he's ok, but a little nervous.
They went to bed and slept for the night.
