A/N So this is my first fan fic on Hopefully it is a good one. So to avoid confusion the character in the prologue is NOT Rikku. Rikku and her twin have the same name until her twin changes it to Leila before the story starts. So the prologue is about Leila not Rikku. So please R/R because I'd love to hear what you think. I know this prologue is super short but it was the only way I could think to start off this story. So enjoy. ^_~
Prologue:
Rikku sometimes thought that the weather reflected her emotions…it didn't of course but it whenever she was happy the sun seemed to be out. The sun seemed to be a good omen to her. So when she woke up one morning to see the sun shining brightly through her window she knew that something good would happen that day. She slowly got up and looked around the room; in the top bunk her roommate was still asleep. Slowly she crept out of bed and changed out of her pajamas. When she left the room she bumped into Mildred, the nice lady that ran the orphanage she lived in.
"Oh Rikku, I was just about to come and get you." She said with a smile "I have a family here that thinks they want to adopt you." Rikku smiled excitedly before running down stairs. She hadn't looked in a mirror when she got dressed so she just hoped she looked cute enough, though Mildred always said it was what's inside of someone that counts.
When Mildred finally got down stairs Rikku was waiting impatiently hopping up and down. She led her to a room where a couple with a little baby sat together with wide smiles on their faces. The mother was very pretty with beautiful brown hair tied into a ponytail and next to her the father looked kind with dark hair and a matching smile. When they saw her they looked so happy that Rikku hoped they would adopt her; she'd be happy with them she was sure. And after talking with them for fifteen minutes they had fallen in love with her. That day she went to her new home with two wonderful parents a baby brother and a new name that she had chosen for herself: Leila, her favorite name.
She was so happy with her new life that she never wondered who her real parents were, or what they were like. Little did she know just how crazy her life would soon become.
