Prologue: The White Wolf
X Roxas X
When I was still a kid I used to go to Ansem the Wise's house along with the others and listen to his stories about mythical creatures. One of those that I grew fond of was about the wolves. He said that the wolves have the power to change their selves to a human form so that they could mingle with us without being noticed.
But then as I was growing I became less and less interested and to me those were nothing more but fairy tales but then I didn't know that I would have an encounter that will change of what I thought of it.
That night when I ran an errand from my dad, it was getting dark that I decided to take a shortcut home through the forest and that was where it all began.

Roxas was riding his skateboard carrying a bag of groceries. How he regretted taking a shortcut through the forest. He was quickening up he doesn't want to stay long in the forest. Who knows what creatures lurk in there.
Roxas didn't notice the root that was sticking out of the ground. He tripped over it, his skateboard and the grocery bag went flying in the air.
"Argh, stupid root..." Roxas cursed he wasn't feeling any better as he stayed longer.
Roxas quickly stood up and reached over the grocery bag. Then he went to pick up his skateboard but before he could, he heard a noise. Sounds like a cry of some sort; it came from behind the bushes.
Roxas tried to ignore it but then it didn't stop so he decided to look behind the bushes. When he saw the cause of the cry, his eyes widened. There was a white dog, no it wasn't everyone was afraid of going to that forest only he was brave enough and crazy as well to go in there, even the dogs wouldn't step in there, it was a wolf. A beautiful white wolf, its left leg at the front was caught in a trap and was bleeding.
Roxas knew that wolves are dangerous. Their carnivores that would kill and eat its prey but this one was injured. He couldn't just ignore that. He came out of the bushes and approached the wolf slowly.
The wolf looked at him with its sapphire eyes. That was something unusual... Wolves with blue eyes, never seen one before like that...
"Hey there..." Roxas said moving closer. "I'm not gonna hurt you, I'm here to help you." He said kneeling before the wolf.
The wolf just stared at him. Then it looked at the trap. Roxas tried to open the trap but it was a little difficult. He managed to open it and the wolf pulled its leg weakly before he let go of it. He then moved closer to the wolf that was licking its wound.
Roxas took out a handkerchief from his pocket and approached the wolf.
"I'm not gonna hurt you." Roxas said as he slowly stretch out his hand to the wolf.
The wolf was looking at him as if examining him, if he was good to eat or not. Roxas touched the wolf's head and brushed it backwards. The wolf just closed its eyes.
"Good..." Roxas said and tried to look at its leg. "I'll just wrap this around." He said wrapping the handkerchief at the wolf's injured leg.
The wolf groaned making Roxas pull away. As if to say it was alright the wolf laid its head down. He sighed out of relief and continued until he finished.
"There you go; now that wasn't so bad was it." Roxas said rubbing the wolf's head again. "Good boy... I better go, take good care of yourself and don't run into any more traps okay." He said as he stood up and left the wolf.
Roxas got home and to his dismay he was scolded by his mother for being so late. After finished eating dinner he went straight to his room and went to bed, pushing the events that had happened that day, though he hoped that the white wolf was okay.
He tried going to sleep but he couldn't. His mind was still lingering to the white wolf. He has never seen one like it, blue sapphire eyes was it even possible? Could a wolf have that kind of eye colour? But it was so beautiful, so mesmerizing maybe that's how it gets its prey.
At that time outside of Roxas' home by a post light a girl was standing staring at his window. Her hair was like strands of gold and her sapphire eyes gave an innocent spark. She was wearing a white dress that reached above her knees and her feet were bare. She looked down at her left hand which was tied by a handkerchief on her wrist.
"Good boy..." The girl muttered. "But I'm not a boy..." She said as she stared back at the window and left immediately before anyone could see her.
But she knows she will meet him again...
