"The Familiar of Rosette"

Prologue

A girl with flowing light blonde hair and light blue eyes stood in the middle of a crumbling room.

She wore a white long sleeved dress with a ribbon that matched her eyes. She clutched at her stomach and gave a shuddering sigh as she tried to take another step further into the room.

Just a little longer and it would be over. Just a little longer and she could fulfill her mission.

"Mary!" yelled an alarmed male voice

Mary turned carefully towards the door. If she wasn't careful she would re open the wound.

"I'm in here…" She rasped

A man that looked to be in his early twenties stepped through the door. He had shoulder length violet hair and ruby red eyes.

He was wearing a red cape with dark leather clothes underneath. His face was full of worry as he walked towards Mary.

"Mary…I'm so sorry this wasn't supposed to happen. If I had known…"

"Chrno, it's alright you couldn't have foreseen this." Mary placed her hands on the side of Chrno's face and smiled at him. Muffled voices were heard from outside of the room.

Mary knew there wasn't much time left she had to complete her mission before they got here.

"Chrno please listen to me there isn't much time left. I have to…" Mary started before shouting was heard from just outside the door

"I'm sorry Chrno!" Mary shouted before a bright light engulfed the entire room.

"What…what is this." Cried Chrno while shielding his eyes from the bright light

Chrno's world faded into darkness as he sunk to the floor.

Mary had just finished the last seal around Chrno's sleeping body when the wound on her stomach was ripped open again.

Mary fell to the floor coughing up more blood and clutching the wound on her stomach. Her white dress was now stained in blood.

"Please Chrno save the future" gasped Mary before she fell into unconsciousness never to awaken again.

She had done it. She had given the future some hope.

This is just the prologue for this story which is why it's so short. The actual chapter will be much longer. I'll explain more about this story in chapter one.
