So, I got inspired for a new fic, co-written by Winged Illusion, and this is the result. See if you can figure out what it's about :3 Enjoy!
Be the Narrator
In the kingdom of Alternia, the kingdom famous for it's green forests, bright neighboring sea, and tall Sburb Mountain, the king paced back and forth in his castle hallway. His aquamarine eyes full of worry. His wife, the queen, was currently in a very nervous birthing process. From what the doctors said, his wife could be having twins, which, in that day and age, was almost a death sentence. He soon heard the sound of crying coming from down the hall and saw a maid come out. She smiled a small smile, which made the black haired king smile in relief as he ran into the room his wife was in. She was sitting against the headboard of the bed, holding two small bundles in her arms.
The king rushed to her side, tears starting to form at the corner of his eyes. He sat on the bed and looked at his two new children, a boy and girl. He slowly picked up the boy and grinned with fatherly pride. The boy slowly opened his eyes, which shone a deep blue, the man's smile only growing. The king looked at the little girl, who looked back at him with bright green eyes and smile just as bright.
"Names? Have you picked any, my liege?" The nearest maid asked the king. The king looked at her and smiled.
"John and Jade. Those are their names."
Be the now 8 year John.
You couldn't help but be excited. Your father finally let you and Jade go outside with just one care taker. And with great joy, you got Jake English, one of the newest castle servants. Jake let you and Jade get away with a lot more than the other servants, so getting him as the only watch made you get even more excited. You ran around with Jade, earning a chuckle from Jake.
"Not to far you two!" Jake yelled.
"Let's play hide and seek!" Jade said with a giggle. She then looked at Jake. "Jake's it!"
"Wha- Why am I it?!"
"Cause you're the oldest! Now count!" You said, chuckling as you ran into the nearest forest with Jade. Jake sighed with a chuckle and covered his eyes as he started to count. John and Jade separated ways and John kept running until he found a clearing. He saw a bush and climbed into it, hiding.
You don't know how many minutes pass before you realized you don't hear anything. You slowly crawled into the clearing and looked around. You couldn't see anyone around. However, you started hearing the sound of snarling.
Be the young caretaker.
You looked around and couldn't find John anywhere. You found Jade with ease, as she couldn't stop giggling, but John? He's an entirely different story. When John doesn't want to be found, he hides as best he can, being completely silent. You look at Jade, who looks worried.
"Wh-Why haven't you found John yet?" Jade asked you. You kneel down and pet her head.
"Don't worry, your highness. I'll go find him. Just go inside alright?" Jade nodded and ran into the castle as you ran back into the forest.
"Your highness! Prince John!" You yell. You hear a small scream and run in the direction of the scream. When you arrive you see small John cornered by a small pack of wolves. "Your highness!" The wolves quickly turn to you and your eyes widen. "Y-Yeah! That's right! Look at me!" The wolves look between you and John before continuing to stare down John. You look around for a weapon of some sort before you see one of the wolves pounce at John.
"St-Stay away from me!" You hear John scream before the wolves, and yourself, get blown back by a strong wind. Most of the wolf pack scatters, but one, the one that pounced, was rammed into a tree, killed on contact. You on the other hand, felt a slight pain in your side. You look at it to see that you had been stabbed in the side by a large stick. John looked at you with large eyes as he ran to your side. "J-Jake…. I…"
"D-Don't worry, your highness… I-I'll be okay." You say, as some more knights run into the clearing.
"Prince John, English!" The lead knight yelled. He looked around and his orange eyes widened when he saw the dead wolf.
"I… I'll explain to the King and Queen. No one else…" Jake said, patting John's head as one of the other knights helped him off the branch and begin wrapping your wound.
Be the young prince again.
You stood awkwardly in the throne room, looking at your feet as Jake explained what happened to your parents. You didn't mean for that burst of wind to happen. You didn't even know how it happened. And you especially didn't want to hurt Jake. Your father looked at you with concerned eyes and your mother with shock.
"So… You're telling me… John has control over wind?" The King asked.
"It's not unheard of. I've heard of many people having powers in history. John's just… the first one I've seen." Jake explained. The King nodded slowly. "I don't think he has a complete control of them."
"Then we can't let him out in public!" The Queen said. The King looked at her with wide eyes. "At least not until he has control of them." The King was silent before slowly looking at you
"I… I don't wanna hurt anyone…" You say, looking down. The King slowly nodded.
"Jake, I want you to be his main care taker." The King said to Jake. "You have seen his powers, and he trusts you." Jake bowed.
"Of course." Jake said, looking at John with a slight smile.
Be the young princess.
It's been a few weeks since the incident with John happened. You hadn't seen John much since then, not even at dinner. You slowly walked to his bedroom door and knocked. "John? Do you wanna play hide and seek?" No answer. "Come on! Let's go and play! I barely see you anymore. Come out the door! It's like you've gone away!" You yelled. Still, no answer. "We used to be best buddies, and now we're not… I wish you would tell me why… Do you wanna play hide and seek? It doesn't have to be hide and seek…"
"Go away, Jade…" Was the only thing you heard.
"Okay… Bye."
