Leon sat quietly by a tree on the grass field in North City. Ever since finding out Mama and Papa were dead he has never been the same. He hardly ever spoke to anyone, always wanted to be alone, never wanted any comforting and his bratty attitude had disappeared inside him.

He leaned his head against the tree and closed his jade green eyes. He sat like that for a while trying to sleep but with all the noise, it was impossible. Leon opened his eyes. Well, there wasn't much things making noise. Just one girl he had looked at a couple of times. She sat by another tree with some raw materials such as jewels and some other things Leon couldn't quite see. She must be trying to make something seeing as she's making so much noise with all her craft materials he thought.

Leon closed his eyes again trying not to pay attention. A few minutes went by but he was still awake as the noise was getting louder. Leon opened his eyes again to see what she was doing. She was drilling something. Her long pink hair was flying with the wind and her light blue pants which were way too big for her were almost falling down. Ha, she's kinda cute Leon thought. That was just about the first time he thought anything like that. The girl took a quick glance at him and Leon quickly turned away and went red.

Leon's head was over-crowded with thoughts. Who was this girl? What is this feeling? He was thinking. He took another look at her to find she was looking at him as well. Again Leon turned around and took out his Hereldry book. This should draw my attention off her he thought.

Leon was flicking through the pages trying to find something to occupy him when he heard the noise stop. He kept himself from looking over to the girl and kept reading. "Um excuse me," Leon heard a soft voice. "Could you help me with something." Leon looked up with his big green eyes and saw the girl with pink hair looking down at him holding jewel and a chain in one hand, and with the other hand holding her baggy pants from falling off.

Leon paniced but finally got some words out of his mouth. "Um s-sure what do you need?"
"Well, I'm trying to get this jewel onto this chain."
"Um I'll try." Leon said and took the chain and jewel out of her hand when he noticed under her other was a book.
"By the way, what's the book?"
"Oh it's my Hereldry book."
"Hereldry? Are you a mage?"
"Um yeah, I'm not very good though."
"Oh, I-I'm a mage as well."
"Is that your Hereldry book?" She said pointng at Leon's book.
"Yeah, would you um like to have a look at it?"
"Okay, I'd love to. You can have a look at mine."

The girl sat down next to Leon and passed him her book as Leon passed her his.
"Cute ain't it?" Opera said to Ernest as they stood quite a distance away watching the two.
"Cute? Yeah, it's nice to see Leon finally talking to somebody."
"Do you think they're in love?"
"There could be a spark between them."
"Ah, love at first site. They look so into each other."
"Yeah, remember how we met?"
"Hahaha, at that bar down the road from my house."
"We didn't meet at a bar, don't you remember? We met at your parents house."
"No Ern, I clearly remember meeting in a bar."
"Thats impossible for you to clearly remember. You were probably drunk of your ass."
"Hahaha true I probably was." Opera said finishing her bottle of Apple Cider.

"...and this is a spell I just learnt yesterday." The pink haired girl said.
"Hmm, I still don't know your name."
"Oh, that's right I'm forgetting my manners! My name's Ange."
"Oh that's a nice name. Like angel but without the L. I'm Leon."
"Nice to meet you."
"Nice to meet you too."
As Leon stared into Ange's crystal blue eyes, Big Brother Claude killed the moment.
"Hey Leon! Come on, we're going!"
"Oh no, I gotta go." Leon got up and grabbed his Hereldry book.
"Wait Leon, will I see you again?"
"Yes, definatley I don't know when though. Tell me where you live and as soon as i get back I'll visit you."
"Um well, I don't exactly have a home. I've lost my parents so now I'm making jewlery for money."
"You don't have anywhere to stay? Come with me then."
"What? Is it alright with your friend over there?"
"Yeah just come!" Leon said pulling Ange of the ground and taking her over to Claude, Opera and Ernest.

"Big Brother, can my friend Ange come with us?"
"Um yeah, sure but what about your family Ange?"
"I've lost my parents so I got no where to go, I just hang around here."
"Well in that case, why not."
"Oh thank you!" Ange exclaimed, "Oops, I seem to have left my Hereldry book over there, I'll be right back." And she ran off to fetch her book.
"She's cute. Don't you think so too Leon?" Opera said with a smile and Leon went bright red.
"I-I don't know." Claude, Ernest and Opera all smiled down at him.
"Okay I'm ready!" Ange came running back.
