Sent on a dangerous mission, crowned prince of Cephiro, Ferio, along with a 'few' others, were assigned to go and fetch the high priestess of the Winds who was lost in the planet Earth, fourteen years ago.

There's nothing to it, right?

Things Are Not As They Seem

Prologue The High Priestess of the Winds

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

"But, that cannot be!"

Crowned 'Queen' of Cephiro Emeraude [1] desperately tried to turn the argument up side down.

"But, Master Mage, he's too young! Please, pity him, send someone else!"

"But, Princess, it is a must! It is one of the prince's responsibilities."

"But, I-"

"Queen, the decision of the High Court is final, and irrevocable. The prince Ferio must depart from the land of Cephiro and travel to Earth, in search for the High Priestess of Winds. The country is in jeopardy! Many have died because of the untamed winds that roam the country day and night. Besides with another priestess by our side, we can acquire a better military defense against the invading planets, and the great rune-god, Windam, can fight by our side. Queen Emeraude, please understand."

Sighing the Queen finally agreed. "I understand, Master Mage Clef."

Clef took notice of her crest-fallen features. Melancholy also hit him. Of course he understood that the queen only wanted to protect his brother.

. Then a brilliant idea came to him. As he watched the queen's slow retreating back he called for her.

"Queen Emeraude! Queen Emeraude, I have a wonderful suggestion!"

In the city of Tokyo lived a young girl of fourteen, Houoji Fuu. Her life devoted on her studies, she was the top of every class, and her family loved her so.

It was a hot afternoon, and Fuu was walking back home. Humming a tune she hardly knew. Stopping in front of their house she took out the keys to open the door, since her parents worked really far away, and her sister arrived a little bit later, she was the one to carry the keys.

"Pu pu pu pu!!!"

'What. was.that?' Turning around, Fuu saw the strangest little creature she had seen.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

"I'm hungry!"

"Now, now Umi-chan be patient!"

Ferio sighed. What a horrible day this turned out to be. First, he was assigned to accomplish a task here on earth, which was a practically light- year away, and worse he was wearing these strange clothes, which were quite comfortable actually... Second, he had to be accompanied by two, noisy, childish priestesses-

"Umi-sama is not noisy and childish Ferio!"

Ferio's eye twitched as Ascot made a huge fuss about Ferio calling Umi a noisy childish priestess.

'Fine, I forgot to add a stupid mind-reading mage, who's wimpy and befriends monsters.' Rolling his eyes, Ferio readied himself for another one of Ascot's sermons.

'Oh, I almost forgot. The stupid master mage, Clef assigned a fur ball too.'

"Have any of you saw Mokona?" At his words, his three noisy companions turned quiet.

He turned to look at them, since the trio rarely shut up. Arching an eyebrow he looked at Hikaru who shook her head.

"I told mokona to play with Umi for awhile since I've got to make sure I properly do all of Clef's orders."

Ferio turned to Umi. "Well, Mokona was bothering, hopping around and everything that I let her play alone! Besides, what am I? Her babysitter? I think not!"

He now turned to Ascot. "Have you seen him, Ascot?"

Ascot simply shook his head and replied with a "no." Sighing in defeat Ferio slumped and let his arms lay motionless on both of his sides.

'Some adventure trip this turned out to be. I haven't even started searching for the priestess, now I have to find an annoying fur ball first. What a wonderful day this is.'

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

Fuu watched with curious anticipation as the pink little fur ball contentedly finished a slice of chocolate mouse cake that Fuu had prepared.

"How strange. I've never seen a species like you. I wonder what you're called."

Mokona heard her and looked at her curiously, in an all too cute manner. [Kari-Chan: Isn't Mokona simply adorable! Jap-girl and Eina: Sure Kari, whatever.] Fuu smiled at the small creature, and wipe off some icing left on the corner of it's mouth.

'I wonder who would've left such a totally wonderful creature.'

To be continued.
