I know, I know! Don't yell at me about the unfinished stories quite yet… Be patient! Now, I haven't exactly been working on these much… So don't judge. I kinda fisted my laptop in the face a couple months ago and had to get a shitty chromebook, so be happy.
And now, instead of ranting, here's the newest addition to my stories. That aren't done. Just chill. This one is more… Detailed… Than my other two. I hope you guys like this… Enjoy!
Chapter One
Red
She hurried up the stairs in a panic, her breathing heavy with her vision starting to blur with pure exhaustion. How long has she been running? She had forgotten how many staircases she ran over, how many hours had passed while she was doing so. But she couldn't be caught. Those things would kill her if she was caught. The torture she would go through just to be in their presence… She couldn't bare the overwhelming thought of it. She had one job. One simple job. And she had screwed up beyond belief. A three-year-old could've done a better job.
Her name was Moka. She was, truly, a beautiful child. But the humans did not think of her as beautiful, more as a freak. She was warned by her loving mother to keep quiet about how she truly was. But she had made such a friend that she could no longer bear the thought of lying to her any longer… And so she showed her friend her true form, thinking that such a being could accept her. But instead, she screamed. The sound pierced both her ears and her heart. She couldn't stand the pain of standing there, looking at the one she trusted most. So she ran. SHe didn't go very far at first, but then she had heard footsteps. Several of them. They seemed heavy and rushed, and so she ran again. Her home was in the other direction, but she was well aware that she couldn't return. That's the only thing she remembered of her father.
"My dear child… I do love you and your mother with my entire being…. But as I lay here, unable to move any longer… I must warn you… If you are to reveal your secret to these… These atrocities… Do not ever return to this place… Or I will return and take you back down with me. Do you understand this, my child?"
She didn't want to go to hell. She just wanted to go home. She wanted to be held in her dear mother's arms and be told that everything was going to be alright like it always was. But this was bad; this was very, very bad. She was going to endanger the only family she had left. She had already gotten her beloved father killed by accident when she was younger. But now she had grown just a bit, yet it seemed that she was still just as naive as back then.
Her lungs felt as if they were being ripped into little pieces with each breath she took. She could barely see three feet in front of herself. But she couldn't stop; she had to get away. Far away. Where maybe.. Just maybe… She may start life anew.
A line of lightning struck in front of her, causing her to fall back on her behind. But she instantly knew that this was no ordinary lightning. Instead of vanishing, it continued to strike the ground in the exact place for what seemed like forever. Suddenly a figure appeared out of the lightning; it was a noble looking woman with a gentle look on her face that came out of this now blinding light. "Are you Miss Moka..?"
She was shook with fear at these words. What kind of monster is this…?! She couldn't stop thinking about it. Her hand-made encyclopedia race through her mind. None of the monsters she had ever heard of were capable of doing something like this… Her eyes floated to what was behind the young woman. She saw a beautiful blonde little boy whose eyes shined with a gorgeous shade of blue. The young woman noticed what Moka was now focused now and she smiled, "Come here…"
The little boy obeyed without hesitation. He clung to the young woman, looking rather shy. "Come now, no need to be shy, my dear… Why don't you go and introduce yourself to this young lady?"
The boy looked up at the woman and was quite hesitant, but finally he walked over to Moka and stuck his tiny hand out to her.
"My name is Aido Hanabusa. What's your name?"
The girl was almost immediately enchanted with the young boy. Such grace in everything he did… Even how and what he spoke, was so beautiful to her. She slowly and quietly extended her hand to meet his, "I-i'm Moka… I-it's a pl-pleasure to meet you…"
He grabbed her hand and shook it softly, "You're pretty," he turned back to the young woman, "Can she come back with us, mother?"
The young woman smiled with poise and nodded, "Only if she wants too. We cannot force her to." The little boy seemed a bit upset but then looked back at Moka, "Hey, you should come back with us! We can be friends, right mother?" The woman was obviously holding back a small laugh but nodded anyways. Aido turned to Moka and smiled, "We're gonna be best friends, okay? Don't worry, no one will ever get in the way! We'll be friends forever!"
The thought made Moka cringe a bit as she remembered her last friend forever. Her eyes widened with fear as she came to a terrifying realization. The footsteps were no longer following her. So they either gave up, or…
"... Run…"
Aido looked at Moka with a surprised look, "Excuse me?"
Moka grabbed her head with shaky hands, "You have to run… They're here and… We're all going to die if we don't run!"
The woman suddenly became furious as she looked around with a realization, "Damn… Aido! Take Moka and get home, now!" He hurriedly grabbed her hand, "Yes ma'am! Come on!" He dragged a frightened Moka with him through the blinding lightning without much resistance.
A few seconds later Moka was on the ground with Aido kneeling down next to her, "Sorry, I forgot to tell you to… Nevermind, just stand up." She did as she was told and looked around with pure awe. "Where… Where are we…?" He smiled as he spread his arms wide with pride, "This is my home! And it's yours too now, Moka!"
