Chapter 2- Strange Meeting
Sir Jecht. Those two words that had ruined her life and most of all, her family. When she heard about her mother and fathers death, she heard it from her aunt who was with them when it happened. Her aunt told her the story like this: her father, mother, and aunt were out, when a man named Sir Jecht came out of nowhere. He unsheathed his sword and charged. Her aunt ran as fast as she could and heard screams as she was running away. The next morning they found three bodies, her mothers, her fathers and Sir Jechts.
"Why do you need to see him, he doesn't live here, why would you want to see HIM", she said all in one big blur.
"Uh, um, well", the man fumbled around the words.
"What is taking you so long!", a voice said from behind him. The voice, as she could now see, belonged to a taller man with red armor.
"I am General Dilandau Albatou, and we are in need of another Dragonslayer, we need to see Sir Jecht immediately", said the man impatiently.
"Well, General he doesn't live here so just leave me alone and see yourself out", Sakura said sharply. With that she was about to close the door, when she spotted her two friends, Kaylee and Missy.
"Whoa, Sakura are we interrupting something", Missy said. Both of them giggled and walked in.
"All right, Miguel just take them back to the fortress, I've had enough of these charades", The general said. "Obviously something went wrong, Sir Jecht is not here."
"Whoa, what for-,"Missy didn't get to finish. The general had already knocked both her and Kaylee out cold. He was stomping towards Sakura. He started to come at her with his sword, but she blocked it. Dilandau looked at her in shock.
"Hmm, not bad little girl," Dilandau mocked her. "But, as you can see the playing fields aren't exactly even."
"What are you talking about?" she asked. She heard something behind her, and whirled around. SMACK! The boy with brown hair hit her and knocked her out with her friends.
"Owww", Sakura said weakly. She opened her eyes slowly, she saw she was in a dark room and spotted her friends on two beds across from her. She shot up from her bed, only to wish she hadn't.
"Aaaahhhhhh", she screamed. She held her head. There was a deep cut on her head going down to her back. She fell back in to bed frustrated. Her friends were only a few feet away from her and she couldn't get because of fear her back would split open, and worse she had absolutely no idea where she was.
All of a sudden, the door opened and a boy-another Dragonslayer, she presumed-with light brown hair stepped in.
Almost making the same mistake of getting up again, the pain became worse.
"SHIT", she swore. She turned her head carefully. "What the hell do you want", she mumbled.
"Relax", he said, "I'm not exactly a fighter, just messenger and a service boy." " I got you some hot water and towels."
"It's about time," she said. He placed the towels and water on a small table near her bed. She dipped the towel in the hot water and placed it on the cut, then layed back down. "Hey, you know, you guys don't have very quick service," she teased.
"Oh, well I'm sorry there's no mint on your pillow but I believe you'll find some gum under the chair," he teased back.
She laughed. That felt good, to laugh again. She hadn't laughed in a long time even with her friends. But, at least she knew she had a friend at this place, whatever it was. And that was a good thing, because she had a feeling she wasn't going to be leaving here anytime soon.
Author's Notes: So? What did ya think? I know the beginning really sucked, but it helped me develop the story! Thanks to dragonet, Otaku Pitcher, and Magical Dream for being my first three reviewers!! And also I understand you aren't trying to mean Otaku! KEEP REVIEWING! MY SPRING BREAK STARTS FRIDAY! YYYYYAAAAAAAAAA! Then I will be updating sooner.
