Ep 1: Too much too think of.
It was a quiet evening in the Saillune gardens. Amelia was looking into the little pond in the middle of a big maze.
'In a year I have to be wed. What am I going to do? I don't want to get married, not now, not to someone ho I don't even know. I just want him...'
A single tear fell into to pond, then another. Amelia rose and walked towards the castle and brushed the rest of the tears away. She had been crying allot lately. She walked past the guards and gave them a smile, a fake smile.
'How am I suppose to be happy when I'm miserable? How can daddy make me get married to someone I don't love?'
Then she walked straight to her chamber. Her own place, her escape form everyone at times. She sat down at the desk and tock out a pen and a peace of paper and started writing.
Dear daddy.
I'm going away fore a time. I'll be back a week before I turn 20. I just have to be alone and sort myself out. And maybe find him. Don't be afraid and don't send any guards after me. I wont come back until I'm ready. Try to understand. I'll probably go and find Miss Lina and Mr. Gourry so I'll be ok.
Love Amelia
Amelia folded the letter and put it down onto the desk with her fathers name written on it. Then she put some of her things in a bag and walked to the balcony. She had put on some traveling clothes. Not the white Mage outfit, it was to small for her now. She had grown quite a bit, and her hair went almost to her waist, it was braided nicely so it wouldn't be in the way. She had a purple and black outfit now. She didn't were pink any longer. Only if she absolutely had to. She put the bag on her back and stood on the balcony railing. After a quick look around she cast a Levitation spell and was soon out of the city Saillune.
It's been a month sins she left Saillune. She didn't try to find Lina, it was just an excuse for her father not to worry. She would try to find her later on, but now she just wanted to be alone.
"It's nice to be alone some times. I just wish Mr. Zelgadiss where here....." she trailed of and stooped walking. There where something hiding in the bushes, she redid a spell and braced herself.
"Come out, I know your in there." The rustling sound stooped for a moment and a small boy came out from the bushes. Amelia made the spell disappeared and looked at the small boy and smiled.
"Hi there. Were did you come from?" She kneeled down so she was in the boys level. The boy just pointed into the woods.
"Ok. Are you lost?" The boy nodded.
"Do you live in the town up ahead?" He shook his head. 'I think this is going to take a while if he isn't going to say something.'
"Do you want me to help you?" He nodded.
"Ok, well I'm Amelia. What's your name?" 'Doesn't hurt trying to get him to say something'
"Grey." Amelia was a little surprised. That he actually answered but just smiled at him and offered her hand to him.
"Well Grey, shall we go look for your parents? I certainly think so." Grey smiled and nodded then took Amelia's hand.
"Do you have any idea where they might be?" Grey pointed to the forest and started leading Amelia through it. They walked for quite a while until Gray abruptly stooped.
"What is it Gray?" There were a bunch of wolfs standing 20 feet away from them. Amelia summoned a Dim Wing and sent the wolf flying fare away. Grey just smiled and then took Amelia's hand again and started leading her. 'I really don't think he's lost at all. Maybe he knew about that bunch of wolfs and needed some help to get rid of them' Amelia was in her own thoughts when Grey stooped again.
"What now.....Oh." They where standing outside a house. Not showy but it looked nice.
"Does your parents live here?" Grey nodded and wet inside. Amelia stood outside and was wondering if she should go after or just turn around and go some were ells. The latter was no use because Gray came back and took her hand and led her inside. The house was nicely decorated. Amelia admired the paintings on the walls and walked over to the fireplace. Over the fireplace hung a painting of a beautiful pair. They looked so happy. Amelia thought that the man in the painting resembled Zelgadiss. 'I'm going crazy or something.... Where did Gray go?' Amelia looked around and didn't see him anywhere.
"Grey? Where did you go?" She started looking around. She didn't find him anywhere. She sighed and sat down in a nearby chair. 'I guess it's best that I stay until he comes back.' Amelia heard a voice and footsteps coming closer. She stood up and looked towards one of the doors.
"What is it you what to show me Grey? You didn't bring home any animals this time did you? Because you..... Amelia?"
