There was once a young man who could not find his way in the world. He felt lost and confused. He loved his little sister very much but fate was cruel and took her away from him, leaving him all alone. He did not have anyone else but deep down inside he knew that there was someone out there waiting for him, even when he didn't want to acknowledge it.

There wasn't much in the world left for him. His little sister Sophie had been buried yesterday and whatever link he had with the outside world had been severed once and for all. She had been his last living relative and with her gone he found himself understanding what true solitude was like. And yet Leon Oswald was not one to give in so easily.

He did grief but no one would see him shed a tear. He was a strong man both in body and spirit and his emotions were locked up tight. Still the need to get away from the apartment he shared with his little sister was too strong and unconsciously he decided to flee those memories and feelings.

He fled from the rest of the world. Blindly and unconsciously he searched for that one person...in hopes that she would make him whole once again.

Not wishing to deal with the outside world any longer, he packed his bags and left the busy city of Paris. He traveled for months, not staying too long in one place. Until finally he headed to the country side where had bought a cottage a few months ago. He had needed to get away...and standing in front of the small wooden cottage he felt slightly more at ease. He could breath again...at least for now.

He finally found solace in a small cottage between the mountains and the woods. A place barely touched by men and full of peace and life. Yet not even that was enough to calm the yearning in his soul.

Night came quickly but sleep did not come so easily to the pale haired man. Even though he was surrounded by the calming nature, he still could not find that inner peace he desired so much.

However Leon did not really care or at least he tried not to care. He had tried reading a book but not even that managed to calm the jumbled feelings inside him. It was well passed midnight. Feeling restless he decided to take a walk. He did not know where he was going and he did not care.

He needed to go somewhere, he did not know where. All he knew was that something or someone was calling him.

The full moon was out tonight, illuminating the way for him as he walked through the surrounding forest. As he walked he recalled the stories that he heard as child. One of them in particular had caught his attention. It was about the forest nymphs.

He could recall some parts of the story, not all of it, but still enough to smile softly.

Her name was unknown but she was said to be very beautiful, with the face of an angel and a heart as pure as snow.

She came out each full moon and danced to the moon goddess, praying for the return of her soulmate.

That's all he could remember of the story though. Nevertheless this story had always struck a chord within him, he wasn't sure why.

He chose not to dwell anymore on such thoughts and instead concentrated on the path in front of him. He did not know where he was going. His thoughts were too jumbled at the moment. Thoughts of his little sister swirled through his mind and he found himself once again drawing into himself. Sophie had been the last attachment he had to the rest of the world in a way. His parents had died very young leaving the two of them to fend for themselves.

With no more living relatives, they were sent to an orphanage. Life had not been the best for them there but they did survive. Together they managed to overcome everything and yet now she was gone.

Without Sophie there was not much for him right now.

He had never felt like he belonged to begin with. His silverish white colored hair and his violet eyes were enough reminder of that. To most he had been an outsider and no matter how hard he had tried he had never been able to fit it. He finally stopped trying and instead of trying to find his place between his fellow peers, he chose to be the loner.

All he knew was that he not found his place in this world yet and with the way things were going it would probably never happen. Not without Sophie, not without his dear sister. Violet eyes darkened at the thought.


He walked and walked for minutes, hours, he did not know. His thoughts haunted him and sucked the last bit of breath out of him. He felt like he was lost and that the rest of the world did not want him...and in return he did not want the rest of the world.

Before he even knew it, he had walked further and further into the woods and had come to a stop at the beginning of a clearing. The wind blew gently around him, causing his long hair to sway gently with the gentle zephyr. For a moment he just stood there gazing at the field of long grass.

All of the sudden though something caught his eyes.

Small glowing lights seemed to appear almost out of nowhere. His gaze followed the small lights, which swayed in the gentle breeze. He quickly concluded that they were fireflies. A small smile appeared on his lips.

The light bugs twirled around the clearing, creating small intricate designs in the dark sky. It looked beautiful and for a brief moment he wished that Sophie was here with him.

However all thoughts left his mind as he noticed a small figure appear almost out of nowhere between the fireflies. The moonlight bathed her petite frame and he couldn't keep his gaze off her.


He finally came to a stop and found himself in a clearing surrounded by fireflies. The scent of nature invaded his senses but even though he was surrounded by beauty offered by Gaia herself, all he had eyes for was her. A goddess...an angel...a nymph...

She was small and petite with rouge colored hair swirling around her as she twirled freely.

She wore a simple white strapless dress that reached just below her knees and swirled around her with each move she made. Long arms moved gracefully in the air as she swayed. She danced freely to music she alone could hear, her feet barely touching the grass below her feet.

Her skin shone and it seemed almost like she was covered in stardust. She was a vision in white, bathed in moonlight and surrounded by nature in its truest form. It was like she belonged there.

She was beautiful.


Something came alive within him as he observed and he found himself reaching for her.


He unconsciously took a step forward, something in him wanting to touch her.

She must have sensed him for she stopped in her tracks and turned around, honey brown eyes pinning him to the spot. Her eyes reminded him of those of a cat and for a moment he found himself remembering those stories that he had listened to as a child but his common sense made him push those silly thoughts away. He did not believe in such things.

Schooling his features he took a step towards her and watched as she tensed a bit but did not move away. He took that as encouragement to get closer to her.

The small and beautiful nymph did not run away. She stood quietly waiting for the young man to approach her. With every step he took, he felt something tighten within him.

"Who are you and what are you doing here?"

A smile appeared on her lips and he resisted the urge to allow that simple display affect him.

"I've been waiting for you." She giggled lightly, her smile becoming bigger.

"What are talking about?"


His voice was cold and callous as he asked her who she was, causing her pain without him even knowing it. He did not remember her and it almost brought her to her knees but she tried to be strong.

Something flashed in her eyes. It disappeared very quickly but it was enough to send a pang of something undescribable through his heart.

"You don't remember do you?" she asked softly, turning away from him and focusing her softened gaze at the moon above their heads.

"What am I suppose to remember?"

"I..." she tensed and was ready to bolt but his hand shot out and wrapped tightly around her wrist and pulled her against him. A startled sound left her lips as she was pulled flushed against his taller form.


Wanting to escape after hearing his harsh words, she tried to run but he was stronger and faster than her. Before she could even try, he had her already captured in his arms. He smelled like fire mixed with rain. Even though she was scared she found herself relaxing in his embrace.

Her cheeks heated up and mimicked the color of her hair as she found his intense eyes boring through hers. She tried to pull away as wrapped his arm around her waist and the other release her wrist and reache for her face but her struggles were proven in vain. He was too strong for her and she just slumped against him as his fingers brushed away her red locks to reveal pointed ears which were adorned with various twinkling earrings. Instinctively her ears drooped in embarrassment.

"What are you?" Her honey brown eyes snapped open as she felt his hot breath against her neck.

"Don't you remember?"

"Should I?" he challenged, not liking the way he was feeling at the moment. He felt like invisible strings were wrapping around him and pulling her towards this unknown female. He could not allow this. He had never allowed himself to feel for another, except his sister and he would not start now.

She seemed perturbed by his words, her brown eyes losing some of its shine as she lowered her face, hiding her expression from him. Once again that same feeling of guilt washed over him like cold water, causing him to internally shudder. Nevertheless her voice snapped him out of his musings.

She felt her heart shatter at his denial. He did not know her. He did not care for her. She felt like she was breaking but still she did not want to give up.

"Have you ever felt like you didn't belong?" she whispered quietly.

It was his time turn to be surprised. How did she know? How could she know?

Taking advantage of his momentary surprise she managed to pull away from him, extracting herself from his grip. She saw the slight confusion in his eyes and it gave her hope. He could still remember. Feeling slightly relieved she felt her spirits lift somewhat.

Her eyes twinkled mischievously as she grinned at him before twirling around and away from him. Coming to a stop a few feet away from him, she turned once again to gaze at him. Resolution shone in her eyes and for a moment Leon wondered what this creature was planning.

"You don't belong out there. You belong with me. I have been waiting for you for so long."

Her voice was steady and showed her belief in those words she just spoke but the longing in her voice could not be missed. He felt something long forgotten stir in him and he made his way towards her. She did not move from her spot. She stayed where she was even when he towered over her, his much larger frame looming threatening to swallow her.

He could not believe what he heard but deep down inside he knew it was true. She had been what he had been searching for so long.

She was brave, he admitted to himself.

"Why would I go with you? What would you offer me?" He needed to understand, even when his heart already told him all he needed to know. He was taken aback when one pale hand reached for him and was laid on his clothed chest just above his heart.

"What does your heart tell you, Leon?" His name rolled like sin off her tongue and he felt himself shudder at the intensity. His heart thudded rapidly and he was certain that she could feel it.

He swallowed hard. Her touch alone stirred feelings so new to him but at the same time so familiar that it left him slightly breathless and craving more. He felt the iron cage around his emotions start to creak and rattle. He was about to snap. Closing his eyes, he tried to get a hold of himself.

"Leon?"

Her voice.

The catalyst.

The iron bars broke.

Violet met honey brown. Time seemed to stop.

She gasped as his larger hand wrapped around her dainty one and pulled her against his. Her lips parted in protest but he swallowed whatever complaint she had as his lips descended on hers. He was hungry, he was desperate. He craved her, he desired that life she seemed to breath into him. He did not understand what was happening and he did not wish to think as he devoured her.

He nipped on her lower lip, only to soothe the bite with his tongue, enjoying the mewling sounds she made in the back of her throat. Something sparked in him, something that had died with his little sister Sophie.

It was like that ice barrier around his heart finally fell apart. He groaned as she wrapped her arms around his neck, her small fingers wrapping in his silver mane and tugging lightly at the silky strands. He wrapped an arm around her waist, pulling her flush against him. Her small body fitted perfectly against him, her curves clearly felt through the thin white dress she wore.

He kissed her for all he was worth. She returned the kiss with just as much fervor. Something broken was finally restored.

It felt exquisite.

It felt right.

It was meant to be.

His deep bluish violet eyes snapped open and pulled away, breaking the kiss.

"I know you," he whispered laying his forehead on hers, his eyes sliding closed.

He stepped away as memories long forgotten rushed towards him. He remembered her. She was his and he was hers. They were meant to be.

How could he forget, how did he forget? The veil that had been laid on him lifted completely. He could remember how they met, their first kiss, their first night together. He could remember everything.

"You remember." It was a simple statement but it was filled with such hope that he couldn't stop himself from laying a soft chase kiss on her lips

"I remember...but how?" He felt elated and yet confused. He could not understand how he forgot about her.

"Does it matter?"she asked in return.

He did not answer but he knew deep down inside that it did not. All that mattered was that they were once again together.

"Leon, it's time to go," she whispered softly, taking his hand in hers.

"Go?" he asked softly not understanding what she meant.

"We don't belong here, the moon is almost gone and we need to return," she whispered.

For a moment fear made him pause but one look at her face, made it disappear.

"Let's go, Sora" he muttered.

Her name barely a whisper was enough to make her smile brightly. Not able to resist, she threw herself in his arms hugging him tightly to her. She was so small compared to him but she fitted perfectly against him. Raising her face, she stood on her tip toes to gaze at him.

"I love you,"she whispered with such fervor and conviction.

He did not reply but instead sealed his lips to her once again, assuring her of his feelings for her.

And as the moon finally disappeared, the two lovers were gone as well.

They say that the nymph and the human lived happily ever after but no one really knows. All everyone can be sure about is that when love is true and when it's pure, no matter the circumstances, lovers and soulmates will always find one another.
