A/N: I feel so loved! Six reviews X3 Sorry it took so long to update .;; And sorry this chapter is so so so short, but I wanted to go ahead and get it out so people won't think I died x.x This was shoved out in a hurry, I will probably re-do it, so it is stupid and OOC. i.e. Don't even bother flaming, this is going to give me nightmares, don't worry.
This chapter, with the following ones, will be in third person.

Story so far: Cesia's parents have died from mysterious killers, leaving her with a stepfather she barely knows.
In the orchard of an old stone house, a girl worked, picking up fallen red apples and putting them in her white-checked apron. Her hair was black, with an odd lock of burgundy, dirty, and pulled back. She had a dirty face, dotted with acne, as all unwashed teenage faces are, and her clothes were stained and wrinkled. This, my friends, is Cesia, once heir to a poor barony, but now lowered in status by her stepfather to a servant.
"Cesia! Come in here!" a deep voice barked from inside the house.
"Yes!" She yelled back, picking up a couple more apples before slowly coming into the house through a simple wooden door. Cesia walked through the portal into a simple kitchen, dumped the apples into a basket, and walked into the dining room where a man tall, dark-haired man stood impatiently.
"You are to address me as 'Lord Nadil' when replying to me, and you were slow."
Cesia sneered back, hands on hips, "My apologies, Lord Nadil, but I did not want to bruise the apples that you wanted me to gather."
Her stepfather cracked his knuckles threateningly, "You are being impertinent to your elder, and we are going to court in two months. I thought it was about time that you had a proper governess, she will be coming tomorrow."
"Bu-!" The black-haired girl was about to retort, but felt a hand on her forehead, pulling back on her skull.
"Cesia..."A familiar voice said warningly. She was pulled backward into the kitchen, Nadil smirking at her stumbling walk.
The hand turned her around, to face a red- and blonde-haired man "I am not in the mood to take care of whip-strokes on your back," Bierrez sighed, bruises from combat-training covering just about ever inch of his muscular body.
Cesia sniffed and shoved Bierrez is the arm, "Move, you are in the way." Huffing out of the kitchen door, the black-haired girl went off to enjoy freedom while she had it.
