Bond of Blood Chapter 1:The Initiation It was a cold stormy night as the young woman stepped out of the store into to the cold rain, a blank look in her eyes. She was no ordinary girl. Her eyes were a stoming blue-gray; she had four red markings, like large pointed scratches on each of her cheeks and two of the same markings on her forehead pointing downward. But that was not what made her special. She is a Nobody, a being born when someone who has an incredibly strong heart becomes a heartless. When that happens, a Nobody forms, a sort of a second form of them. She walked onwards to her home, thinking about her origins, very confused about memories she doesn't know how they got there, when a young man, clothed in a black trench coat with the hood drawn up, walked out of the darkness, an eerie aura given off from him. His orange eyes glistened like smoldering embers, making her stop and wonder. Who was he? Suddenly he stopped, and then gave her a look that said perfectly, "Come over here." She immediately turned the other way, but then he was right next to her, his hood pulled off to show neon green hair, and a pale face, then said to her, "You seek answers." He spoke with a velvety sweetness in his voice. He seemed to have a calmness, even caring in his tone. He created four letters of white light. However to her they were backwards, unable for her to read. "I can give you purpose in your life." Then he did a simple backhanding flick and the letters started spinning at a dizzying speed. Then he snapped his fingers, then a large yellow X appeared, and the letters stopped suddenly, then combined together to form a word. It was, just like the other word, backwards, however, it was decipherable, and the woman sounded out the word. "N-Naxan." "That is right, your new name, should you choose to accept it." He stated in a casual manner. "M-m-my Na-a-ame?" she stuttered out. She really had never thought about a name, she just sort of came into existence and she had no idea how it happened. Some thought she was mute, but she just never could find her voice. Until now of course "What do you want with me?" she demanded. "Your help that's all," another voice said, and another man stepped out of the gloom, he was much different. Whereas the green haired boy seemed kindly and calm, the newcomer had a forceful voice, full with anger and irritation. His eyes were a bloody red, his hair falling upon his face, pitch black with violent streaks of red interspaced within. "We need you, you need us. We can benefit each other." "Shut up Xayon!" the green haired boy said to the black haired one. His name was Zayon, whatever that meant. He pushed the angry one away then said with determined calmness, "My name's Mawillix, that's my brother Xayon spelled X-a-y-o-n, and I'm looking for people like you, people like US, to help out." "W-what do you mean, 'People like me?' I'm not like you. I am me! No one else!" she exclaimed, not liking where this conversation was going. Mawillix let out a sigh. "I mean, don't you wonder what your purpose IS. Where you come from, why you exist?" She looked confused, even scared, so he let himself become more honest, showing his true side. "You're a Nobody. Like us, you are a being born when somebody, who has an exceptionally strong heart, is claimed by the darkness. When that happens, a new being, a nobody, is formed." Mawillix said to the girl. He seemed caring, kind, the polar opposite of his brother, who was callous and cold-hearted. Maybe she could get used to it. "Naxan. I could get used to that." She said with a pleasant tone. She liked the sound of it. "Besides," she thought to herself "Mawillix is really interesting, and I could get used to Xayon. So why not give it a whirl?"
