Prologue
It was that one last shriek that drove me away. One last metallic, blood-curdling shriek that shredded the air. I dared to look back. That was my mistake. Alveri floated in the air, indigo energy wrapped around her. Black lightning intertwined, strangling her. The snow-haired girl's back arched, head thrown head, her violet eyes blank with pain. She screamed again, tears streaming down her face.
She… tried to he- In the shadows, I knelt to the ground, my body racked with silent sobs. She tried… to help… me. An empty thunk echoed in the clearing and I glanced up. Through blurry tear-streaked vision, I saw Alveri lying on the trampled grass, unmoving. Her were glazed over, still filled with torment.
"You see this Kaliska?" The black-robed mage shouted. "This is escape!" He let out an awful cackle. "You wanted to leave! And this is the price! THERE IS NO ESCAPE!" With blue-horror filled eyes, I watch him approach the fallen mage. With a menacing sneer, he kicked Alveri. I recoiled as if hit me. Arms crossed over my stomach, I willed myself still. Alveri helped me with all her strength. I would not let her down now. "Come out Kali-chan!" I pushed down a growl that rose in my throat. I was not his friend. Atleast, not anymore. He shouted to the clearing again.
"Kali-chan! Come out! This is just senseless suffering. Come back. You used to trust me. What changed?" I gazed out from behind the undergrowth, a true sorrow flickered in his green eyes. I would have jumped out had I not known the truth. He didn't love me, I was just a lost piece to his collection.
"Mist-wolf track." I whispered and formed my hand into a claw shape. Smokey tendrils of mist formed at my fingertips. It leaked into the clearing, clinging to the earth. Hiroki remained oblivious. He continued to search in the deep woods, looking above my head and cover-up. When the dark mage turned to scour to opposite side of the woods, I bolted. With silent footsteps, I tore off into the dark of night.
Black lightning streaked by me, and adrenaline slithered into my veins and my speed picked up. Hiroki screeched my name, and footsteps told me that he was following hot on my tail.
"Phantom-wolf Guard." I murmured and familiar panting sounded behind me. Two wolves made of pale purple haze with ebony bones sprinted alongside me. Pain speared my heart as I whispered the target. "Hiroki." The two creatures stopped and fell behind me. They out a ghostly howl, and the hunt began. Swallowing, I continued loping along, searching the area for somewhere to stay. Hiroki was weak, he would give up soon. The wolves contained more power than Hiroki ever would. Unfortunately, a lot of my magic swirled together to form that defense. I needed to rest, soon. Hopefully all my previous knowledge of the dark mage proved true and he turned back. A scream echoed in the distance, a submissive whimper followed. I gritted my teeth and looked around. I darted into the shadows of a shallow cave and let mist seep from my fingers. I covered the area thinly and hoped it would distort the shadows even more. Now I just needed… re… I collapsed before I could finish my thought.
Hi world! So I'm back and this time with "Fairy Tail" Fanfiction! So now I'm proving that I'm not just a bookworm, I'm anime geek too! I know… I just keep getting cooler, right? So I will admit that I tend to be bad with updating. So bear with me, review every once in a while to keep me writing, and overall enjoy! :D I want to hear criticism and always want to know how to make my writing better.
Second, many of you probably clicked this title thinking "Woah, this sounds interesting." Don't get too attached. Most likely this will be a temporary title until I think of a good one.
I think that covers everything… But anyways readers!
