Cries and whimpers echoed in the air as at least thirty abandoned children ranging from ages three to six huddled together, all of them helpless and in danger. They huddled together in the abandoned ally of one of Aurodon's rare ghost towns, shivering in the cold wind. "Why are we here?", asked a small freckled boy, hugging his knees.
"How should we know, puny?", snarled a blue and brown haired girl.
He shrunk at her glare and another girl with curled purple hair stood. "They left us!", she hissed loudly to them, her green eyes blazing with both anger and sadness.
They all turned to look at the six year old. "We don't know that!"
"They did...?"
"Why...?"
Her three words frightened almost everyone, some tearing up. "But we don't need our parents!", she continued, almost reluctant. "So they went away. We know who we are!"
The kids looked at her. "What if we don't?"
"Then..." She paused. "We will..."
"You sound like you don't know," she snapped.
She opened her mouth to speak but another child around the same age, stood up besides her. "She's right," announced a young blue-haired girl.
Everyone looked up at her. "Who are we?"
Silence. "Who are we?", she asked again, louder this time.
"Jay. Son of Jafar," a long-haired boy offered.
The black and blonde hesitantly opened his mouth. "C-Carlos de Vil. Son of Cruella de Vil..."
She smiled at him and encouragingly and looked at the next kid. "Harriet Hook. Daughter of Captain Hook."
The pattern went on and it became a ritual, a tradition, done once a week to remind them who they were. Who were they exactly? They were the Children of the Lost.
This is kind of a one-shot... It will continue if you guys wanted to...
Anyways... This story plot is from Crimsonfang16 so give them some credit for letting me use one of their story ideas. If you need a brief explanation about the plot, here: The VKs have all been abandoned on Aurodon and grow up in secret.
A few more things: The Children of the Lost suited them all.
TELL ME IF I SHOULD MAKE THIS INTO A MULTI-CHAPTER STORY!
PLEASSSSE!
Well... uh... bzye!
