Day 15: running
Can people get excited about cooking? I mean jumping up and down kind of excited? Well that is how excited I was about cooking today. Glacioushas been quiet all night and morning so I decided not to disturber her.
I started my morning when the sun had just peaked into our home. I left my room as quietly as I could and snuck down to the kitchen. I grabbed some of the money we earned from yesterday and set out for the day to get some breakfast. I left and headed for the nearest store. Surprising the store was open at such an early hour and I was able to go in, the strange thing was that there was only one person it there and that was the man behind the counter. he looked familiar but I could not match a name to his face. I looked around and found something for everyone, when I got to the counter I noticed that the man at the counter was grinning, it kind of creped me out! But I had to put up with it, and then he started to talk to me in a voice that was scary, and yet ever so familiar. He said "hello again Ignis, how is the family?"
I took no notice and subconsciously said, "Good, and yours?" while I said this the man started to turn green, grow bigger, and grotesque, like a giant leach! At this point I decided to run. I got outside and ran into some alleys. I lost him and got home. I woke greed up and told him what happened. He believed me and I was ordered to wake up every one. (I can't say no to an order for some odd reason.)
I got everyone up and they decided that we should move to Dublith, I don't know what Amestris is like so I just listened. It turned out that our room mates were our partners for travel, and some people will rent moving trucks and take some of the kegs with us. They all rested up that night so that we had enough energy for the next day on the trains.
Since I can't sleep at night I went out for a walk during the full moon. As I was getting to the outskirts of town I noticed a little boy looking up at the stars. I went over to him and saw that there was a small pool of darkness sounding him. It did not register as a danger so I reached my hand towards him to get his attention, but as soon as my hand got over the pool it got skewered by the shadows. The boy stood up and introduced himself, "my name is pride, and you are Ignis, right?"
Iresponded, "yes, why?"
"I came here to do a test for my Father that is why." once he finished his sentence, he sent his shadows toward me and surrounded me. Then all at once each portion skewered my body, even my eye, but it only made one cut to the head, which was my right eye. The shadows came out slowly and my body fell to the ground. I could not move an inch and my body recovered; I knew that it would be healed by about noon.
