In an open field to the right of a large barn and to the left of a small house stood a small brown-haired girl, grooming a large chestnut colored horse. Behind the field was a large pond, empty save for one duck. The area seemed lifeless, except for one light on in the small house, and the girl and her horse. Dark rain clouds gathered overhead-despite it already being the first week of December, there had been no snow. As the sky darkened, the wind began to pick up. Within twenty minutes the girl's hair was flying every which way, but she stayed grooming the horse quietly. A raindrop fell, and more soon followed. The wind began howling quietly, and the girl glanced up and looked around. Seeing no one, she looked down again, and continued brushing the horse's mane. Finishing, she took the horse's reins, and walked him into the barn.
The lone duck on the pond seemed to watch the girl, and as she entered the barn his eyes began to glow red. The small girl exited the barn, and carefully shut the door behind her. She looked up at the sky, filled with clouds still pouring out rain. Wrapping her arms around herself, she began trudging past the pond towards the house. The duck, its eyes back to their normal color, still watched her. As she passed the pond and neared the house, it suddenly began changing shape.
Within seconds, the duck assumed the form of a human wearing a long black coat. He lurked quietly behind the girl. She seemed to know something was following her, but every time she turned around, all she saw was an innocent duck walking along behind her.
"Go away, duck, you can't come into the house. I'm sorry, but you'll have to stay out here." She said to the duck. As soon as she turned around, he once more became a man.
When she was halfway to the house, another man, dressed in jeans, appeared behind the first man, whose eyes were once again glowing red. "Watch out!" the man in jeans cried. The girl whirled around quickly, and saw both men. She screamed in terror of the man with the glowing eyes.
The man with the glowing eyes waved his arm, causing the other man to fly into a tree. He then drew back his hand and a ball of fire appeared in his hand. Despite the rain, it stayed lit in his hand. The girl, obviously frightened, crumpled to the ground, crying and screaming. As the man prepared to throw the fireball at the girl, she put her hands up over her head, her palms facing toward the man with the glowing eyes. Without warning, fire shot out of her palms, and engulfed the man in flames. He moaned in pain, and then disappeared.
The man who had been thrown to the tree pulled himself off the ground and ran over to the crying girl. "Are you okay?" he asked her. When she didn't answer, he knelt down beside her. "I won't hurt you.I promise."
She slowly lifted her head and looked at the man. "What.what was that? How did he..and I.where did all that fire come from?"
The man frowned. The elders didn't tell me she didn't know she was a witch, he thought. "It was.nothing. Nothing to worry about. Are you hurt?" He tried to avoid the topic of her powers, not sure exactly how to tell her.
"N-no. Who.who are you?" the girl asked, calming down finally.
"Your parents hired me to help take care of the horses." He answered, hoping it would be enough of an explanation for her. It was.
She stood slowly and rubbed her eyes. "Bye," she told him, then turned and quickly walked to the large house without waiting for a reply.
As soon as she entered the house, tightly closing the door behind her, the man disappeared in a swirl of blue orbs.
A/N: any ideas on who the man and girl are? The demon in this chapter will most likely be involved in other chapters, maybe the next 1, I havnt decided yet. I cant think that far in advance. Read and review please!!!!!!!!!!!
