This is my first fanfic, so don't kill me!
A shadowy figure ran on top of the wall that guarded the little village, turning his head this way and that. He sniffed the air and twitched his sensitive ears, listening for any movement below him. When he heard none, he leaped off the wall and sprinted off towards the woods.
He finally stopped when he reached a small hot spring. Looking around once more, he took off his baggy, ripped up pants and slid into the warm water. He sighed in content, happy to be out of the palace walls.
If his mother ever found out that he had been sneaking out on his own, he'd be a dead man. For he was not allowed to wander off alone out side the walls.
This content boy is named Reu. He is 17 and his mother is the Queen of the humanoids. That's right, this boy is a humanoid. Instead of human ears, he has raccoon ears and a raccoon tail. His eyes were a deep gray with cat like pupils with a tattoo across his eyes. His hair was a pail white and he had many piercings on his ears, a nose ring, a lip ring, and nipple rings. His wasn't very muscular like his twin brother, but people still fawned over him for his sexy looks. And wore nothing, except a pair of ripped up pants.
The humanoids used to live among people, but the humans always mistreated the humanoids and sometimes kill them. This caused a war between them. But nobody won, for a treaty was signed before any more damage could be made. All the humanoids had to leave the human lands and live deep in the forest. The humans would stay out of their land, while the animal creatures stay out of theirs. But they were able to see each other on this one piece of land called No Man's Land.
No on owned it, so any one could go in it if they like. But they had to go in peace. That meant no fighting, killing, or capturing one another. But some people don't pay attention to that law, like poachers.
All these things happened about two-hundred years ago, in the 1600s. And Reu's mother was the one to sign the treaty. Now it's the early 1800s and life was going great. Or so Reu thought…
Reu opened his eyes and saw that the sun was much higher up in the sky than it was before. So he got out, put his pants on and sprinted back home.
The sun was about to set when Reu got back home. He made sure that his mother was no where in sight before heading up to his room. But stopped when he heard the voice he dreaded most.
"Where have been, Reu?"
Damn. I was so close too. Reu turned around to see Katherine, his mother, behind him. Her black cat ears were flat against her head in anger, her tail twitched in annoyance, and her turquoise, cat eyes narrowed in suspension. Her short, layered, blond hair was tied back in a small pony tail and was wearing a light blue robe.
"Uh… you know… out." Reu said lamely.
"Out where?" Her arms were crossed now. Not a good sign.
"Around."
"Reu, I want the truth this time. No more lying."
Reu lowered his eyes to his feet and started to fidget. "I went over the wall." There, I got it. I hope mother doesn't kill me. He dared to look at his mother, but soon regretted it. She standing there, fuming now.
"Reu Paige Cossopolis! You know you can't go out there alone! There are too many things out there that could kill you!" She yelled.
"I know that! But I can defend myself too, you know! It's like you're treating me like I can't!" Reu yelled back. At this, Katherine calmed down and went over and hugged her son.
"I know you can fight. But the humans can kill us more easily now, because they have more advanced weapons now. And they could kill you before you can even blink. I just don't want my boy to get killed." She whispered. Reu returned the hug and kissed her cheek.
"I'm going to bed now. Sorry I yelled at you."
"It's alright son. Just don't go out there alone, alright?" Katherine gave a motherly smile before kissing his cheek good-night.
"Ok. Good-night mom." He returned the smile and walked off to his chambers.
So did you like it? Love it? Why am I asking you now? It's only the first chapter.
I know it's short, but please review. -
