Fate's Mistake
This is the author again. I want you guys to know that this writing style isn't permanent; I'm just trying something new. If you don't like this first person view of the story, please tell me and I can change it. I look forward to your reviews.
"Ugh can't the sun be any less bright and shinier sigh" I moan as the beautiful golden rays of the sun burn my eyes like fire ants. Sticky mounds of saliva wetly smacking around in my lips as I rise up from slumber. I yawn and wipe my eyes with my fingerless green gloves with a soft breathe. "FATE knows what time it is I better get some food in me before I drop again" I laugh softly to myself as I sit up. I jump into my patched clothing.
Over the years of my traveling you'd expect a person would end up with a whole gang of adventurers and such, but not me. All I've gotten is a bunch of sights, eye candies, and a whole lot of loneliness. Traveling from city to city, town to town, looking for work, money, food, and FATE forbid companionship. But you never what one day may bring so might as well get moving. I tightly tie my brown boots over my feet, grab my bag & head out.
Few minutes pass and I arrive down at the local tavern, passing by smiling patrons, lush green trees that hover above beautiful seas of cerulean blue. "Hey Gasher old buddy you got anything for me?" I ask happily to the tavern's bar keeper. Every time I look at Gasher I swear his face gets grouchier and more stone like. His yellow eyes were barely seen by sagging mounds of flesh that come from his big thick bushy brick red eyebrows.
Gasher also had a red beard connecting just up to his sideburns that streaked the side of his grizzly like face. And that goofy ass chef hat that he always wears, he doesn't even cook! "Sorry patch but nothing getting out of bed worthy so to speak, few crappy porting jobs for cargo ships" Gasher said. I curse silently under my breathe and kick a chair lightly with my brown boot. Porting jobs for cargo ship paid little and sucked worse then clean up duty.
"Sorry to bother you mate but have you seen anyone that looks like this?" a sweet female voice said from behind. I shrug and turn to see and I swear my eyes literally popped from their sockets, there right before my eyes, asking those questions, it was her, THE DREAM GIRL! Beautiful soft tiger painted cheeks, golden blonde hair, red skirt, long legs, purple necklace, it's the girl. Her cerulean eyes turn to me with a puzzled look & wipe my head furiously.
The beautiful girl approached me and I swear my heart was ready to explode, she looked puzzle and half curious of me. "Gulp, a girl no my DREAM girl is coming towards me..this is unreal" I utter to myself. Brown gloves flex as a picture was shown to my face. My blue eyes fall upon what appeared to be a cat demi human. The guy in the picture had dark brown fur, big cat whiskers and sharp fangs, plus a weird blue royal like hat.
A sweet voice asked "Hey mate you wouldn't happen to know where this bloke is now do you?" she asked me. "Well sorry if I sound rude but isn't that a picture of Lynx, the owner of the dragon tear of fate?" I ask curiously. My black hair itched slightly, I rubbed it and stared as the girl's eyes lit up and she smiled nodding a bit "Yup that's him". I laugh nervously, maybe she doesn't know, man she doesn't know that Lynx died about half a year ago.
That's how I recognized his face, every hunter, traveler, and adventurer heard he was destroyed by that stranger from "The Other World" way back. Better break it to her carefully "I hate to break this to you miss and I really do, but Lynx died a huh". Strange, the girl was backing away from me, her blue eyes are widening in fear. It's as if she was staring into the devil's eyes. "Hey uh miss what's the matter look I'm sorry that he" once again I stop.
Suddenly I gazed into her beautiful eyes and realized why she was backing away, why her beautiful cheeks chilled with the horror of blue faced fear. IN her eyes, her lovely cerulean eyes the reflection wasn't showing me, it showed...LYNX? "Finally found you ya bleeding bastard, you took everything that was important away from me. Well now I'm going to return the favor, by taking YOUR HEAD" the girl screamed pulling out a dagger.
"AH look miss I'm not Lynx my name is Patch and I GAHH" I scream out as I drop to the ground from my chair, barely missing her dagger's swing. Gasher reached out and grabbed the girl's arm, he snorted "No decapitating in my bar missy". The girl growled back and crashed a devastating head butt into Gasher's face, I watched in awe as he dropped face down unconscious. "What a woman I AH" got to keep alert, I barely missed that dagger throw.
My boots flip up and land as he I return to right side standing up, the girl grabbed her dagger and started madly swinging it at my face and head. Each swipe of steel came closer and closer to nipping at my black hair and skin. "Is this what every guy goes through just to help out a pretty face?" I ask, the girl stops and blinks at me, she looks confused or lost or something. Here's my chance I thought, I bend down and swing my leg into a low kick.
The kick connected with the girl's wobbly smooth skinned legs, her ankles collapse as she lands on her backside grunting in pain. "Now let's just I WAH" my voice yells out, my cheeks are burning like there on fire. I'm staring directly into the blonde girl's panties as her legs were raised in the air. The girl sat up and gasped blushing a crimson red; she growled angrily and leapt at me screeching. Panicking I dropped down and raised a leg up.
The events unfold before my widening blue eyes liker in slow motion. My brown boot pushed against the bare baby smooth flesh of the girl's belly; unwittingly I pushed on it and shoved forward. Another squeaking squeal formed into a scream, the girl was flipped over my head and crashing into a table. "Miss oh my god I'm so sorry" I stuttered as I walked up to her, only to receive a boot to my black haired head. Stumbled steps caused me to fall.
Fear filled eyes widen as the girl was now on top of me, I felt my throat tighten and sweat pour down my face. It felt so wrong to be afraid of someone so beautiful. The girl was sitting on my chest and pinning my legs down, her dagger aimed at my throat as she hissed like a wild animal. "Die Lynx you hear me? I want you to DIE" the girl screamed and slammed the dagger down. But at the very last second as I widened my eyes, she stopped.
Instead of closing my eyes as I started to feel tears slowly form and mold into view, I stared into the sweet and youthful face of death. Now that same face was contorted with a baffled and sweet fully confused look on her face. Cerulean eyes melted away the image of that black cat demon Lynx, and slowly my face was reflecting in the girl's eyes. She gasped as her sweet cheeks became adorably flustered. "Oh bloody hell not again" she said.
The girl got up and immediately sheathed her dagger into her brown jeweled holster, her brown gloved hands reaching to help me back up. "Bloody moons I'm really, really sorry about that mate, must have phased out. That's been happening a lot, I seem to keep mistaking people for Lynx" the girl said. Laughter quietly escapes me as I shake my hair free of dust replying "Think nothing of it miss I'm just glad I could bring you back to reality.
My manners part of my brain must still be dizzy, I'm Patch" I extend my green gloved hand to her. Sweet giggling laughter escaped the girl's lips, it sounded so sweet and lovely. "A real sorry bloke I am once again Patch, and by the way me name's Kidd" the girl replied. We shook hands and I smiled nodding to her, unable to tear my eyes away from such beautiful cerulean orbs. Kidd apologized to the others and slowly turned towards the exit door.
My face felt red as fire ball as I watched her cute little rump wave as she walked out, her red and gold skirt seemingly taunting me. "HEY Kidd wait up I need to ask you something" I call out as I run to her. Kidd stops and turns looking to Patch with a curious glance on her young tiger painted cheeks. "What's the question mate?" Kidd asked, "Why is it you're here I mean why this island? Is it because of this Lynx character?" I reply softly.
A slow nod answers my question; I can tell by the look on her face she hates talking about him. "Aye, everyone here says he's dead but I swear I saw the bastard make his way over to this island" Kidd said. Lightly I scratch my black hair and respond "Well I don't recall seeing a dead man er demi human around here, but I'm not totally useless". Kidd smirked "And how's that mate?", I smile "You need a guide to direct your way over the island.
Take me with you and let me help you find Lynx, I'm sure with your expert skills and my knowledge we can find Lynx in no time". Golden locks shake a bit as Kidd bites her soft full lips, "I don't know Patch, this is between me and Lynx and I don't want you" "I'll work for free, anything" I add. Kidd gasped a bit and smiled softly as she looked to him crossingly, "Seems to me you want the company of sweet vulnerable little girl with ya huh Patch?".
I burst into laughter as my cheeks brightly blushed with incredibly bashful shyness. "Vulnerable, not even close, adorably sweet and cute, bloody well right" I reply with a warm smile. Rosy blushes appeared over Kidd's cheeks as she too tried to hide the warm rosy colors. "Sneaky little sweet talker..oh all right ye can come along" Kidd said with a smirking smile. I stifle a YES in my mind as I smile and eagerly head off onto Kidd's quest.
