Chapter 3~ Secrets of the Past
Raora watched from a tree never moving, her eyes intent on Marron until they both turned to leave. Her eyes watchful, sad, and mysteriously ever hiding her secret.
Marron and Carrot walked back to the village, soon meeting up with Tira who questioned Marron as well. Though she got about as much out of him as Carrot.
Then Chocolat walked up to them looking serious. " Tira didn't that girl at all remind you of someone?" She asked calmly. " Because she should…she's one of the old Sacher children. Remember her… Rao I believe her name was… I… I thought she was dead like the others." Chocolat continued sadly, old memories still haunting her.
"Raora you mean…" Marron murmured to them. Everyone stopped to stare at. " She said that was her name… But why is she here? And if she's from the village… and a survivor form Torte why have we never seen her before?" Marron asked them confused as ever. For some reason this girl didn't seem a stranger but how and why?
Tira finally broke the silence. "Well I believe it is her, the quiet thing. She never was attached to anyone. But now seeing her here? I don't understand it.." She said covering her face with her hand. Like her sister old memories always plagued her when this came up.
A frown spread on Marron's face. "Ok so she's a refuge, that doesn't help much though." He thought to himself. "Why is everything so hard."
Now that the questioning was over Carrot brought up the matter of Marron chasing a girl. This'll get Gateau to back off…" Carrot mused to himself before starting. "Oh and you'd never imagine it!" Carrot started. " Marron was off chasing that girl from earlier. Hmm Raora or whatever her name was." He started much to Marron's dismay.
Gateau just turned listening to Carrot confused. " Really that's so unlike him…" Gateau replied, looking slightly uncertain. Marron just watched confused, but he figured it was either to show how much Marron was like him, which was quite wrong. Or it had to do with Gateau. Hmm it might get rid of him for a while. Marron thought to himself.
Carrot nodded, " Yep he said it himself. Right, Marron?" Carrot continued. Finally Gateau came to the conclusion it was because the girl had cast a spell on Carrot. He probably found her a threat, an enemy. It didn't matter.
Marron at this point turned away thinking to himself. A plan to find the sorcerer was what they needed. Raora or whatever could wait. "They needed to get rid of the threat first. But what if Raora left by the time they finished. Then he'd never get rid of the feeling that nagged in his mind. He knew her something kept telling him. But form where when?"
"I'll just have everyone spread out and look for clues to the sorcerer alone. That will give me time to find and talk Raora, I'll clear up these thoughts. Then once I can think clearly again we can deal with the sorcerer. They could stop the disappearances then." He thought. This to him validated the need to talk to the girl again. To get a clear mind, they'd find the sorcerer soon enough Marron thought.
*** Meanwhile ***
A smirk crossed the face that watched the Sorcerer Hunters below. "Quite a show he'd seen earlier. They'd all be taken in time. But for now the silent one. Who uses the phoenix shall go." He thought pointing his finger to Marron.
"Come soon though, I'm bored. These parsoners… They're not even worth my time." The face mused. One hand brushed a piece of hair away from the face revealing the triangle on it's forehead.
** Back to our hero's**
Marron nodded as everyone gave a wave and parted off. They where to search for clues to help find the sorcerer. But other plans formed in Marron's mind. He began walking toward the towns edge, the forest beyond she'd lose her veil there. He already knew she was watching. He'd seen the small rift. Why was it only he ever noticed her darting about? Well the fact was he knew she was there. She always seemed to be there watching him.
Raora sighed from a top a roof. "Why the heck did I choose Marron as bait for a power crazed sorcerer?" She thought as she walked along keeping perfect pace. Was it the fact after she'd been missing two and a half weeks, presumed dead, they'd gotten the mission to deal with him. ?But even before that she had a feeling Marron would end up a target. Even if he only passed through the town… So after a week had passed and the nothing. No activity… he'd known she was there. The empty trails, the cries for mercy that ended with some lackey laughing at her. "Magic can call you about at will hmm?" They had mocked her and died. All of them, but it never ended.
But this time it would be different. She'd trailed this group for two weeks having the strange feeling she would be needed. She didn't know why but she had to follow Marron, he could end up dead. That she wouldn't forgive herself for if it happened. Lifting her face to the sun above she whispered a silent prayer and dashed off to catch up with Marron again.
