(( I decided to write this after I finally got the Zelos night at Falnoir scene and completed my item book. This a story about his past..
The spoiler are mild, if any so, If you haven't finished the game you should be able to read on with no worries.
I hope you enjoy the prologue, R&R is much appreciated))
Unwanted – prologue
The small red-haired boy poked his head out from underneath the heap of bedclothes. His face stained red from crying, the skin around his right eye, crushed and bruised.
Shaking, he crawled out of bed, and listened, to see if it was safe to come out.
Zelos was always bumping into things, a door, a wall, a fist.
He crept as quietly as he could across the thick, expensive plush carpet, towards the large wooden door. He grasped the large brass door knob with his little hands, and pulled open the door.
Silently, he climbed up, the wooden mahogany stair case to the servants quarters. He tapped gently on the door to the girl's dormitory.
The door was opened, by a kind looking girl in her early twenties, her green hair tied neatly back into a ponytail. Wiping her hands on her maid's apron she bent down so she could look the small boy in the face
"My, Master, Zelos, what has happened to you this time?" her voice was warm and inviting. She lifted him up and plonked him on one of the beds that were lined up in the room, where the maids and servants slept.
"did you get hit by your mother again? You should try harder to not upset the mistress so"
She dipped a sponge into the hot water she had run in the sink, and brought it over to where Zelos was sitting.
"This might hurt a bit" She brought the sponge to his eye and began to clean the wound. He started to cry and tried to push her hand way. "There, there, shhh… you're a chosen, your not meant to cry"
She reached into the draw beside her bed and brought out a chocolate bar
"Here we go, this should cheer you up"
She handed him the bar, and his cheeks turned rose petal pink, as he peeled upon the shiny foil wrapper. "tank'you Rina" he said, mouth full of chocolate.
She smiled and ruffled his bright red hair "Your welcome"
