Here's the next chapter of Lullaby for you.
Disclaimer: I don't own Blue Dragon.
The rain was unrelenting, it poured over the entire town, and blocked out the sun. Everyone had already run inside of their houses to avoid the downpour, safe and cozy inside. Bouquet was reading a book full of action and romance in her apartment.
She was getting to the good part of the story when she heard a knocked at her door. She put the book down and hopped off the chair, walked towards the door.
"I'm coming."
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
A person in a black coat knocked the door again. The person hears Bouquet's footsteps near the door and her voice.
"I said I'll coming!" The coated figure lay the box down and put a note in the box. The person quickly jumps away before the door was opened.
When Bouquet opened the door; she only to find no one is there. She looked around to see anybody is out there; but outside was only rain.
Probably some kids pulling a joke.
She about to close the door when a baby cries makes her jump. She looks down to see a baby covered in a pink bundle lying in a box.
The child has violet skin and has a black baby cap. The baby also has gold eyes, large pointy ears, and a small, round head. Bouquet believes the baby was a girl due its female features such as the face and the pink bundle.
"Wahhh! Wahhh!"
The baby was crying her eyes out and Bouquet quickly picks the child up and rubs her back to calm down.
"Don't cry, little one." The baby seems to calm down but tears still running through her eyes.
"I wonder where were you come from?" Bouquet mused and looks at the box again to find a note. She picks it carefully and read it.
Dear anyone,
If you read this, please take of Ariana. I'm unable to raise my child as I had no money to take care of her. Its pain me to let go of my daughter and leave her with strangers but I knew she'll have a better life with a family that has money than me. Raise her with love and care.
Signed, the Parent
"Ohh, poor child. It's alright; I'll take care of you." Bouquet carried Ariana back to her apartment and closed the door. But one question came to her mind.
Why does she smell like flowers?
Outside in the rain stood the person in a black coat; staring down at the spot where Bouquet was. The mystery person took one last look and jump away in the rain.

Who is the person in the black coat? There's a hint. I don't know if this chapter is good but this is how Bouquet met little Aria. I'll put the next chapter after four or more reviews. Bye!
