Disclaimer: Hello everybody! I'm back and I think I'm just going to start a new story for you guys. Yeah I know I already have trouble keeping up with my current ones but I couldn't resist. You know why? It's because this is Fire Emblem! The story where we get to see the darker side of Terra. You know her from Femme Spy but now we get to see her inner flame. *blinks* Wow I watch too much Avatar.
Terra: Shadow Katakura only owns me. Nothing more, nothing less.
I've seen things most people would deem horrible. But to me, it's just another obstacle I've got to overcome. Now I bet you're wondering just who I am and what I am. Well I am human I'll tell you that. I'm just not a normal human. As for my name…huh. Well I'll tell you my first name. It's Terra. You might be wondering why I'm telling you all this. Well it's one heck of a story. It's not one with a happy ending either. And to think, it all started on that faithful day. The day I met MECH.
And to me, that's the one day in my life I'd rather forget.
"Terra!"
I looked up from my phone and turned around to see my best friend Emma. For a twelve year old just like myself, she's quite energetic. I bet you're wondering what I look like? I'll tell you. I'm wearing an orange t-shirt with white shorts and orange tennis shoes. And to think, this girl found me walking home.
"Hey Em. What's up?" I smiled.
"Oh nothing. So what are you doing?" Emma grinned.
"Heading home. I just ran a block." I rolled my brown eyes. "And all because I wanted some frickin' ice cream."
"How do you run so much? It's like you never get tired." Emma said.
I shrugged. "I don't know. I guess I'm just used to heat."
"I will never understand you." Emma shook her head.
I smirked. "Of course not Emma."
Emma only laughed before her phone buzzed in her pocket. She pulled it out before reading the text she received. "Oops. Gotta run Ter Ter. My dad's taking me to the movies."
I shrugged. "Alright. See you later then."
Emma only nodded and ran back the way she came. I laughed a bit and ran down the sidewalk, enjoying the way my brown hair flew with the wind. In about two minutes I was in front of my house. I opened the door and walked inside.
"Mom! Dad! I'm home!" I yelled as I walked in the kitchen, only to freeze in terror. "Ah shoot."
Men dressed in green were holding my parents against the wall. I was so focused on them I almost didn't notice the man behind me. Like I said, almost.
"You're dead." I sneered.
Years of karate training kicked in and I head butted the guy. He grunted as he was pushed back. Unfortunately two other men restrained me.
"Let me go!" I screamed.
"Knock her out." One man ordered.
"No! Leave my baby alone!" My mom, Natalie Monique, yelled.
I didn't have a chance to say anything before a very misplaced frying pan came in contact with my head. The last thing I heard was my mom and dad calling my name.
An Hour Later
I groaned as I woke up. I tried to sit up but I quickly realized my hands and legs were bound. I swore under my breath and struggled against the binds.
"I would stop struggling child. The restraints are made of steel." A man with grey hair and a green uniform smirked as he walked in the room.
"Who are you?" I growled.
"I am Silas." The man said. "And the organization you and your family was kidnapped by is MECH."
"Where are my parents?" I sneered.
"Feisty one aren't you." Silas mused.
"Answer me!" I screamed.
"Fine. If you say so." Silas turned to some men behind him. "Gentlemen, bring in Natalie and David Monique."
The men nodded and walked off. I growled at a smirking Silas. Oh how I'm going to wipe that smirk off his face.
"Holy crap…" I whispered when the men brought my parents in the room.
They were beaten up pretty bad with a large number of bruises and scratches. Oh Dad why didn't you have your gun right now? You're a police for crying out loud!
"Mom! Dad!" I yelled.
"Terra honey we're fine." Dad whispered with a pained smile.
"Not for long." Silas said casually before giving the order. "Kill them."
"What?!" I shrieked as I struggled against the restraints. "Wait! No! Please!"
"Sacrifices must be made to reach a greater goal." Silas said casually like he did this every day.
The two men took out pistols and shot my parents straight through the heart.
"NOOOO!" I screamed as tears fell down my face.
"Now Terra don't be like that." Silas smirked. "Men, prepare Project: Fire Emblem."
I gulped. "What's that?"
"You'll see." Silas said as one man stuck a stupid needle in my frickin' arm.
I hissed in pain as the sedative started to kick in. Before I lost consciousness, I murmured a promise I intend to keep. "I will…kill…you."
I heard Silas chuckle. "We shall see."
Sometime Later
I moaned in pain as I woke up. I lifted my arms and legs….wait a second? I looked at my arms and legs to see that the restraints were gone. I grinned and jumped off the flat slab of metal. I then started to walk quietly towards the door, but I unfortunately tripped over a pipe. I nearly screamed but I was surprised when flames shot out of my hands and keep my upright.
"What in the world?" I whispered. It was then that I got a look at my reflection.
Instead of light brown hair, my hair was now dark brown was orange highlights. My eyes were now a fiery orange as well. I then looked at my clothes. My t-shirt has been transformed in to an orange tank top and instead of white shorts, I was now wearing black jeans with brown army boots. And not to mention my hair was now curly instead of straight.
"What happened to me?" I asked aloud.
"The prisoner!"
I gasped and looked up to see a whole lot of men pointing stun guns at me. I growled. They're about to learn to never mess with a Monique.
"Come on you son of guns!" I yelled as I ran towards them.
I guess I was acting on instinct because flames shot out of my hands and I was about to jump over all the men. I didn't give a second thought as to where I was going. I just kept running and dodging men. I was a little disappointed that I didn't spot Silas anywhere but I didn't think about it for long. I would never be able to fight him if I didn't even know how to control my own powers.
"Salvation." I whispered.
A door was straight up ahead. I kicked it down and ran out in to…a desert? Man these guys are lame. I didn't stop running until I came upon a sign that read 'Jasper, Nevada'. My eyes widened. I live in Tranquility. How in the world did I run that far? And how wasn't I tired?
I was breathing heavily and after so long, I finally let out an agonizing scream.
"AHHHHHH!" Fire flew out my mouth as fresh hot tears streamed down my face.
I collapsed on my knees and buried my face in my hands. I looked back at the Jasper sign.
"Guess I'm on my own now." I muttered as I started walking.
I was about to start a new life. I just didn't realize how much it was going to change.
And there you have it folks! The first chapter of Fire Emblem. Prime isn't going to be starting until these next two chapters are up. One of which Terra learns to control her powers and the other…well let's just say Terra meets one of our human friends. Until next time, Katakura out!
