Kisa's Story- Part 1

It was a peaceful night in Kolima. Everyone had a nice meal, and they were enjoying the night sights in the town. A lone villager, a man named Mikel, was wandering around just outside the town. His wife, Julia, always wondered why he did that, but she never stopped him.

Mikel always wandered around in the wilderness at night, watching the stars uninterrupted. His sword lay next to him. He always brought it with him, in case he was ever attacked. However, tonight seemed to be really quiet. He wondered why he brought the sword in the first place. He didn't think he'd need it, until.

Mikel heard a noise, somewhat like a fight. He could also discern a female voice, which sounded in pain. Mikel grabbed his sword, and ran as fast as he could toward the sound. When he got there, what he saw was one of the most horrifying things ever.

He saw a group of thieves beating up a girl. However, she didn't look completely human. She had the ears and tail of a cat, the ears poking out off the top of her head through her blue hair. She looked really bloodied up, and couldn't stand up without looking like she was in pain. She tried to fight back, but she never succeeded. She was only hurt more by the thieves.

Mikel couldn't believe this. Seeing an innocent girl get harmed by ruthless thieves. He ran in, brandishing his sword, and used the flat end to knock out one of the assailants. The other two then stopped harming the girl, and turned to strike back at Mikel, for knocking out their comrade. Mikel punched one in the stomach, and then smacked the other with the flat of his sword. Unbelievably, he had put all three thieves into an unconscious state, with only one hit against each. He himself was amazed.

"Perhaps luck was with me, tonight." He muttered.

Then he heard a sound. It was the girl, who was crying in pain. He ran over to her, and tried to see if he could help her.

"Hello." he said, "Are you alright?"

"[What? I don't understand you!]" was the only response the young lady gave.

'What was that?' Mikel thought, 'I didn't understand a single word she said!'. "Are you okay? Are you hurt anywhere?".

"[I still can't understand you!]"

'Maybe I had better take her to the Master Healer. He would understand her.'. Mikel then gasped a hold of the Girl's arm, and tried to take her into Kolima, yet she resisted.

"[Let go of me!]"

"I'm trying to help you! Stop fighting!"

"[I said let go!]"

Mikel started to get frustrated. He couldn't get anything she said, and she wouldn't go along with him. He decided that it would be best to try to carry her to Kolima. He picked the girl up, which really caused trouble.

"[PUT ME DOWN! I DON'T WANT TO GO WITH YOU!]" The girl was crying openly, the tears rolling down her cheek, stinging as they met the cuts on her face. She fought as hard as she could to get out of this stranger's grasp, but he was too strong.

Before long, Mikel entered Kolima. He certainly drew much attention from the townspeople, as he was carrying a young lady who didn't seem to like this at all.

Mikel ran as fast as he could, so that he wouldn't drop this young girl and injure her further. He got to the Master Healer just in time, accidentally dropping the girl on the makeshift altar of the Master Healer.

"Mikel!" the Master Healer certainly wasn't very amused by this. "What is going on?!"

"Master Kerleth, I found this young lady outside of town. She was attacked by three thieves! I tried my best to help, but I know you can do much better."

Kerleth investigated the young woman, finding all of her injuries, and then attempted to heal the girl. His hands radiated white magic, the power of healing, but the girl was frightened by this, and started to get up, so as to escape, but was held down by Mikel.

"[LEAVE ME ALONE! WHAT DID I EVER DO TO YOU?!]" she screamed. Suddenly, the Master Healer stopped.

"What is it?" Mikel asked, puzzled.

"I just understood what she said." remarked Kerleth, "She's speaking a form of Sylvan. That's probably why you took her to me, isn't it?"

"It is, sir."

"Well, then. I might as well try to talk to her, so that we can calm her down." Kerleth then sat motionless for a few seconds, adjusting his vocal cords to speak the Sylvan language. "[Hello, young lady.]"

"[Who are you?]" The girl was startled by this. She hadn't heard another person speak her language before.

"[I am the Master Healer for this town, Kerleth. And who might you be?]"

The girl started to respond, but retracted, and pondered. Then she responded, "[I don't know.]"

"[Are you sure? Do you remember anything?]"

"[No.]"

"[I see.]"

At this, Mikel started to ask about what was going on, but the wise Kerleth kept held him back. Mikel silenced himself, watching, and wondering what was happening.

The girl started to feel a little more comfortable, she saw that these people didn't mean to harm her, something she never saw. "[Master Kerleth?]"

"[Yes, young child?]"

"[What are you going to do with me?]"

Kerleth saw the fear in the poor young lady's eyes. She seemed to have gone through endless torture, and she never looked as though she were going to receive nice treatment. "[Why, I am merely going to heal you, that's all.]"

The girl didn't seem to like this answer.

"[What's wrong, young lady?]"

"[You're just going to heal me, and then you'll leave me outside of town?]"

"[Is that what you want?]"

"[NO!]" She started to cry a little, hurt by his question.

"[If you want to stay in this town, you're more than welcome to.]"

This caused the girl to slow her tears. "[Are you sure? You will allow a freak like me to stay in this town?]"

"[You aren't a freak, my young lady. You just merely look different, that's all. The people here are kind, they won't find you as an outcast. They will welcome you with open arms. You don't have to worry about anything.]"

The girl was pleased to hear this. She hadn't ever trusted another person before, but she felt that she could really trust Kerleth. "[Thank you.]"

"[However.]"

"[What is it?]"

"[You will need a name. We will have to be able to identify you by name, otherwise it will be hard to talk to you in the future.]"

"[Well, that would be great, but I don't know who I am.]"

"[That's perfectly okay. I have a name that will fit you perfectly.]"

"[What is my name, then?]"

"[From now on, you will be known as 'Kisa'. Does that sound okay?]"

Kisa just blushed, then smiled and replied "[That sounds just fine.]"

"[Okay then, Kisa. How about we heal you up, so that you won't have to worry about any pain?]"

Kisa winced, she didn't feel any pain until now, since she was too busy concentrating on her conversation with Kerleth. "[Thank you.]" Then she laid down on the makeshift altar, while Kerleth healed her mutilated body.

Mikel just stood there, bewildered. And to this day he still has no idea of what had happened.

Well, then. How was that? I hope you liked it, or at least thought that it only sucked a little bit. I'm still kinda new at writing stories in this format. Well, please R&R! I will come up with the next part to Kisa's story ASAP (which may be a while, considering what time it is in the year {school, just great ¬_¬}) Thanks! ^_^
