As The Years Go By...
Chapter One: Hello little One
_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-
The morning was bright and sunny with birds singing making everything seem calm and peaceful for the moment. At least it seemed that way outside a certain building concealed within trees. Inside a young kitsune woman flattened her ears slightly as the sound of children screaming assaulted them.
"Oh, boy." Maya sighed softly blowing her chestnut colored bangs out of her hazel eyes. She then nervously rubbed her tan colored fur on her arms before taking a deep breath and preparing herself for the chaos that she was sure to find in the next room.
The room itself was large enough to be easily called an indoor playground. The floor was made of soft padding and toys were spread throughout. However, children of all shapes and sizes made sure that the room wasn't silent as they happily shouted their enjoyment immersed in their games. A constant blue blur flashed in and out of her vision but she chose to not pay mind to it, thinking it was cruel trick due to the lighting's fault. As she watched the children she couldn't help but begin to feel a little emotional knowing that they were all there because they were orphans. Not only orphans but survivors as well, like she was.
It wasn't too long ago that a mechanical engineer known only as Doctor Robotnik had gone insane with the idea of power and had used his mechanical know how to create powerful robots that had easily demolished their home, Mobotropolis. Hundreds had perished in the attack, hundreds more in the attempt to fight back. Those who survived were forced to surrender to his rule, having given up all hope. However, those who had not given up hope and had managed to escape the oppressing rule, became part of the resistance and were now in this place. It had once been a property owned by a wealthy family, including acres of land, a large mansion, and personal houses for each of the servants they had. It was also conveniently placed in an area that was concealed by trees for their own privacy. Sadly the family had also perished during the attack so they were free to use the facilities for their purpose.
"Maya!! Thank goodness you're here!!" called out a familiar, yet distressed voice to her snapping her out of her thoughts.
She turned slowly spotting a dark brown colored rabbit approaching her, one ear drooping at it's peak and the other being pulled down into the mouth.......... of a tiny red echidna?!?
Following her friend's gaze the rabbit sighed deeply. "Apparently he's teething...."
The tiny red echidna helped her statement by pulling her ear down harder to get it further into his mouth making her yelp.
Maya couldn't help but chuckle at this. "I think you are right Simone. He is cute though." she added as she gently reached out to tickle the child slightly. He gave a short laugh but continued to hold on to the poor rabbit's ear.
"Take him from me, please!!" Simone finally exclaimed her crystal blue eyes watering.
"Fine, fine. Don't be such a wuss." The kitsune teased playfully as she gently extracted the displeased echidna from her friend's ear. "Are you........choosing him?" she suddenly asked quietly.
Simone's eyes softened as she responded just as quietly, "I......don't know. It's just that...I already picked four and I don't want to rush into getting my last one."
"I see."
Maya looked down at the five tiny bracelets she held in her hands. She was here to choose five children that she felt comfortable with and commit herself to being responsible for them. It was something that the resistance had thought of on the account that not many adults had joined and that they had saved so many orphans of all ages. The children literally outnumbered them 30 to 10. So it had been decided that while five adults and the adolescents did what they could in the fight against the madman, five others would care for the remaining 25 smaller children.
The five adults would each be assigned five children of their choosing as it would have been ridiculous to try to care for all at once. They would then live in one of the servant's houses, the mansion being the main base of operations. But, even though everyone would see each other constantly, it still made her feel bad to have to separate them.
With a deep sigh Maya looked down at the little red being in her arms. He had fallen asleep sucking his thumb. Suppressing the urge to coo at him, she smiled brightly and carefully wrapped a bracelet with her name on it around his arm before laying him in one of the play pens.
Smirking Simone raised an eyebrow. " You just couldn't wait to snatch him out of my arms could you?"
"Got that right!" Maya laughed as she started walking forward intent on choosing her next child when something small bumped into her leg, looking down she realized it was a ball. She looked for its owner and soon saw a small black hedgehog with red stripes on his tiny quills crawling towards her.
"Hey there little guy." she cooed bending down to his level expecting him to stop in front of her.
He merely looked at her and pushed his ball again still crawling after it playing his own little game. She was taken aback by his attitude at such a young age but continued to watch him.
Eventually the ball wedged itself between the cracks of a door and the hedgehog only stared at it. She saw this as her opportunity and she went to retrieve his ball. This earned her a smile from him as he stared up at her curiously. He intrigued her greatly and with great care she placed one of her bracelets around his arm as well.
Time passed and the children were slowly disappearing from the room as the other adults had taken them to their new home already. Maya looked around to choose three children out of seven. It had become almost like a competition now, apparently another adult fell in love with a sixth child and was allowed to claim responsibility for it. It was down to her and another adult, a cat named Kayla to have their pick but Maya didn't really care about which ones she got she would have claimed them all if she could have. It was finding them that was getting hard. Some had wondered off to another room, others had an instinct for hiding places. It also began to disturb her that she would occasionally see the same blue blur she had seen earlier.
"Kayla, this is getting frustrating! I can't see any more, but I know there has to be at least seven more kids in here."
The black cat looked at her with calm grey eyes holding three children in her arms and pointing to a playpen with two more. "I'm done, hun. I think you should start looking for those last two in another room."
Maya mentally groaned feeling it would become a wild goose chase when something unexpected happened. She saw the blue blur once again but this time as it entered the now rather empty room devoid of the all the children, it stopped. ..........it stopped?!?
Looking more closely as the light slowly faded away she saw a small blue hedgehog sitting, looking around in confusion. She blinked confused as well and slowly made her way towards him. He stopped sucking his thumb as he noticed her approach and gave her a friendly toothless smile. Encouraged, she went to pick him up but his attention was suddenly on the other children in the playpen and he turned to crawl towards them, at least she thought he had crawled. She sat in even more bewilderment. One minute he had just been crawling, the next he was nothing but a blur and was next to the playpen in less than a second on the other side of the room.
As she was about to approach him yet again, another tiny hedgehog made it's way towards him. This one was pink with a little bow in her tiny quills and with a smile Maya realized that she was the only girl she would have join her little group. The pink hedgehog then turned to look at her almost expectantly when she too had approached the playpen.
Maya laughed. "I'm glad you have chosen me too." She then went to place a bracelet on her arm and turned to the little blue blur to tag him before he crawled off somewhere again with his gifted speed. She picked him up quickly before he had an inkling, placing the bracelet on him and he smiled at her again kicking his dangling feet playfully creating a small gust of wind beneath him. Smiling in return, the kitsune looked down at her group all of them so small and yet looking up at her as well including the echidna that had woken up.
"Well, lets get going home my little family." she told them warmly having a good feeling about all of them not knowing what chaos they would cause in her life in the future.
