Emelia, now 4 years old was actually smarter, faster and more mature than kids her age. She looked like a normal 4 years old with her black hair and black eyes but still she was much more mature. She understood her world and things around her. Like the man who was raising her, was cruel and mean. How he wanted her to be one of his experiments. Valentine had took her from her parents when she was about two months old and she knew well that he was not her father because 1). She looked nothing, I mean absolutely nothing like him and 2). He told her that he was NOT her father. For the last 4 years, Emelia had been locked in this house all alone. Valentine came to the house often but barely. He came once every month and stayed for 2-3 days max. She also had a maid around but it was still boring. She would spend most of her days in the library looking out the window and she would wonder what was outside. What was on the other side of the hill at a distance. What was out there, she would ask and all she needed was a chance, when the maid isn't looking to run, run away and never come back to this boring house and cruel of a guardian.

And one day she found that chance. "I'm going to take a nap, don't go anywhere." the maid screamed from the kitchen. "OKAY!" Emelia screamed back from the library and looked outside the window again. This is my chance, leave and never come back. Emelia waited until she was sure the maid had fallen asleep before she opened the front door and stepped outside for the first time in her life. She took a deep breath and looked around. The sky was a beautiful pale blue and perfectly clear. She walked around the house to the back where she saw the hill. She took one last look at the house, took a deep breath and started to run towards the hill.

She ran and she ran for who knows how long but she was now alone and had no idea where to go. She continued to walk around for what she thought was an hour when she came to another house. She towards it and knocked on the door. A man with green skin, white hair and horns opened the door and saw a little girl at his door steps.

"Hello, what's a little girl like you doing out here all by yourself?" the man asked.

"1). I am NOT a little girl and 2). I ran away from home and hoped you can help me." answered Emelia.

"Okay, squeaks" the man said as he ruffled her hair. "I'll help you find your home."

"No, No, No. I don't want to go back home, the man who raised me is cruel and mean."

"Well, what's his name?"

"Valentine, that's all he ever told me"

"WHAT?, I mean Oh! Okay, so what do you think we should do?"

"You can just adopt me"

"Wow! You're quite forward, aren't you! And are you sure the man who raised you is named Valentine."

"That's what I'm told to call him, so can I stay?"

"Okay, sure, why not? Come on in, what's your name anyway?"

"I'm Emelia, and you are?"

"My name is Ragnor Fell" the man answered as she walked in.
