A Land Apart 2...Well, chapter 2 , that is.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Well, on her way to Lemuria, Sammi stopped in a small town...errrr....LARGE town called Madora (A/N This is actually from TLA....Madora..It's a real town...in the game...I don't know what really happens in the game...I just found out location names via the Internet). She was amazed at the size of the town.
Wow, she thought, This place might even be larger than Tolbi!
She had a lot of fun looking at the strange items on sale in the marketplace, and looking around the city. She noticed a small building guarded by two heavily armed people. Having never heard the saying, 'curiosity killed the cat,' she walked up to one of the guards and asked, "What the heck is this place supposed to be!?"
"Gosh," said the guard, "I thought EVERYONE knew that..."
"Well, I'm new here," explained Sammi, " So I don't know right from left."
"Well, this is the local prison," replied the guard.
"That's strange," said Sammi, " None of the other towns I visited had prisons.."
"Well," replied the guard, "That's 'cause all the other towns are too stupid to have police. It's MODERN."
"Oh," said Sammi, obviously confused, "So, why is this place guarded so heavily? Is there a really dangerous criminal inside?"
"Yes," replied the guard, " A pirate. He's dangerous even behind bars. I'm just glad I'm guarding out here, and not in there."
" I wouldn't be afraid," replied Sammi. She looked back on her past. After having her whole country destroyed by an evil witch and being the only survivor, how COULD anything scare her?
"If you went inside, you would be," replied the guard, " I hear that guy is really scary."
" Have you ever seen him with your own eyes?" asked Sammi.
" No," admitted the guard.
"Then how would you know what he looks like?" asked Sammi.
" You are very wise for one so young," said the guard, impressed, " But I still think you would be scared. In fact, why don't you go in there and see if you aren't?"
"All right," said Sammi, walking past the guard, " I will."
The guard looked at her in disblief.
Once inside, Sammi looked around. The first prison cell was empty, but the other wasn't (A/N: DUH!). She looked into the cell. There was a blue-haired guy in there. He was a big guy, and Sammi had to admit, he did look a little scary at first glance. But that was before she saw his eyes. She didn't see hate or anger in his eyes. She saw confusion...and fear. Not the fear of a villain about to feel the hammer of justice, but the fear of an innocent person who had no idea what was going on. She stared into his eyes for a few moments more, then left.
Looking into someone's eyes, you can tell a lot about them. Whether their past was sad or happy, whether they had friends or not, whether they felt hate or gratitude, or any other emotion. Whether they were good or evil. It was almost like reading their mind. Sammi left very disturbed at this example of injustice. She felt uncontrollable anger rise within her.
As she walked out, she looked at the guard and yelled angrily, "WHAT KIND OF PEOPLE ARE YOU!?"
"Huh?" said the guard.
Sammi was also confused, as she did not know why she had suddenly been so angry.
" I'm sorry," she replied, " I don't know why I said that. I just suddenly got angry for no reason. I do not even know the meaning of my feelings. Sir, I wasn't scared. I can tell what people are thinking, what they are feeling, by looking into their eyes...sometimes."
"If you weren't scared, then how did you feel?" asked the guard.
"Sir," she replied, "I know this may sound really crazy, but....I think that man's innocent."
Then she walked away.
About an hour later, in the nearby woods, Sammi paced back and forth, talking to herself.
"This is not justice!" she said, "That guy didn't do anything! I saw it in his eyes...I know! I'll bust him out of prison! Tonight!"
She sat down on the ground and started planning for the swiftly approaching evening.
