A World Deep in Disorder

Chapter Four: Meeting of Fate

Kyle/Alyssa saga chapter I:

…Two days later…

…7:00 A.M… Lord Amelgard's manor…

Lord Amelgard paced up and down the brilliant hallway. It had a red rug on the floor, and chandeliers hanging from the ceiling. The walls and ceilings were a modern-looking gold color. "Two more days…it's all over the news… north, south, east, and west…everything's falling… spreading outwards like a plague of sorts… and nothing can stop them? …They'll be here in but a few days! The world's government was sacked and destroyed within the hour, and what of the savior of the good people, Tamrin? Where is he? This is all one confusing puzzle…" He sighed to himself. He looked at the clock. "Guess it's time to get my daughter up for school…" He then added, climbing up the stairs.

Meanwhile, in a luxurious room on the floor above, a seven-year-old Alyssa slept. She heard a knock on the door. It was her father, getting her up for school. "Ok…I'm getting up…" Alyssa stated, half-asleep. She got out of her large canopy bed, and opened her window, letting the light flow into the darkened room. She then went into her own personal bathroom, took a shower, changed, and got ready for the day. She then went downstairs to eat breakfast. Her father was pacing back and forth at the breakfast table. Muttering things that he probably didn't want his daughter to hear: "We're all going to die in two days…"

Alyssa sat down at the breakfast table, and sighed. "Don't worry. Lord Michelus will repel the rogues if they come to this town." She said. Although Lord Amelgard wanted to say so many discouraging things, he decided not to. Alyssa finished her breakfast, and left for school. It wasn't much walking before she got there.

…Meanwhile…

Kyle looked around, and sighed. He was bored. Bored as fuck. He wasn't allowed in school, because they considered him a freak, but his enhanced blood type meant that the knowledge came to him, naturally. Still, all of the other kids were in school, and even if they weren't, it wasn't like they were going to hang around with him. He is a freak, after all. At least according to them. He hoped that one day, he'd meet someone his age who didn't mind him. Of course, he didn't know that day would be today…

Kyle wandered around town. Nobody was around. The town was empty. Empty as fuck. All the adults were at work, and the children at school (Except for his brother, who was actually, as usual, skipping school with a bunch of his other friends, and going into neighboring towns where they stirred up gang fights. How a nine-year-old could be the leader of a gang that got into fights with kids twice their age was another story). Still, it wouldn't have made a difference. He was bored with all of his videogames…and his computer was really crappy. Not to mention that everything on TV was a rerun. Being left with nothing else to do, he decided to train…to become even stronger.

He jumped up and grabbed onto the sturdy branch of a large tree, which stood up against the great wall of the village. Then, he kicked off the tree itself, while holding onto the branch, sending him upwards, and he let go of the branch. He landed perfectly on his feet on top of the great wall. It was at times like this that he was glad he had his superhuman reflexes. He then jumped off the wall, and landed perfectly on the other side… where there were seemingly endless forests, perfect for training. He transformed into his young link form, and began slicing branches with his sword, rolling under them, and occasionally taking out his bow, and firing a few shots at some trees.

Well, he was at bliss. These moments of training were outside the walls he had to live in, and the walls that contained those who scorn and reject him, those who call him a freak. After two hours straight of training, he appeared to be slightly fatigued. He looked at the area around him. Lots of branches were cut off trees, and the trees themselves either had deep slash marks, or arrows embedded into them. Suddenly, the calming sound of gentle running water caught his attention.

Making his way through some trees in the direction of the sound, he came upon a small clearing. In it, was a stream of shining pristine water, the sunlight reflecting off it. It made the water seemed heavenly, as if no tainted soul had ever drank from it. Transforming back into his human form, he went to the stream, cupped his hands, and drank from the water. It seemed abnormal. The very taste of it completely revitalized him. Still, he didn't want to take the risk of pushing himself to far, so he decided to simply lie down, and take a little nap. With the clear blue skies and white clouds above him, and the peaceful sounds of the stream seeping into his ears, he let himself fall asleep in no time at all.

…Three hours then passed, and school was already over. Life seemed to return to the town, but Kyle was still sleeping in the forest…

"Hello?" A beautiful voice asked. Kyle opened his eyes to see the most beautiful person he would ever see. It was Alyssa, with her autumn red hair falling below her shoulders and her deep green eyes. Even at the age of seven, Alyssa had among the greatest of beauties.

Kyle looked at Alyssa, revealing his noticeably unique eyes. 'Oh great… now she's gonna get all freaked out like the rest of them…' He thought. Alyssa looked at him for a second. "Hey, you're Kyle, the greater god, aren't you?" Alyssa then asked. "Yeah… but…why didn't you get freaked out and call me a freak like everyone else?" Kyle asked in reply. "Because, I don't care that you're different from everyone else. You're still a human, and that's all that matters, right?" Alyssa then said. Kyle paused. "I really like your way of thinking! What's your name?" He replied.

"My name's Alyssa. I'm the daughter of Lord Amelgard." Alyssa introduced. "You're the daughter of lord Amelgard? The one who leads this village's hatred of me? Yet you're the one who actually doesn't mind…" Kyle sighed. "Yeah…I never really agreed with my father and everyone else. They all call you a freak, because they're afraid of you. When you're older, you're going to become powerful enough to take out planets at a time, and they know and fear it. It's also because your eyes are different that they don't consider you a human." Alyssa explained. "…And I actually like your eyes." She then added. Kyle was shocked. He never got that compliment before…nor did he expect it within the next thirty thousand years.

"I…have a feeling that we're going to become really good friends." Kyle stated. "So do I, Kyle…so do I." Alyssa replied. "By the way… why would the daughter of the money lord be out here in the forests?" Kyle asked. "I never really was all that close with my father…and my mom…died giving birth to me." Alyssa replied. Kyle then looked down. "I'm…sorry." He said.

"But anyways," Alyssa began, brightening up the now-dimmed moment. "…This has been my secret place for the past year. It's where I spend the day…and since recently, now that I have my first transformation, it's become my training ground." She then explained. "I see…I was just training not far away from here." Kyle then stated, motioning off toward the forests behind him. Alyssa then gazed upon the marks that Kyle's sword and arrows left.

"…You're a lot better than me. Could you help me train?" Alyssa asked. "Sure." Kyle replied, transforming back into his young link form. "Thanks." Alyssa said, nodding, and transforming into her Marth form, which still looked like her, only with orange Marth robes on, and the falchion sheathed at her side.

"Make the first move." Kyle said, smiling. Alyssa nodded, and brought down her blade. Kyle stopped it with his razor sword, (Wasn't a gilded sword, yet) and knocked her blade out of her hands. "First, you're going to need a tighter grip on your blade… and you may also want to start off with one-handed slashes. Also, always make sure to have a plan B in the event which one parries your blade." Kyle said. Alyssa nodded. "Is this better?" She asked, picking up her blade, and swinging it so fast and suddenly, that Kyle didn't even have time to raise his blade to block it. However, he did back flip out of the way. "Oh yeah. That was a lot better." He then said.

"Cool…can we do it again?" Alyssa asked. "Of course. For as long as you like." Kyle replied. Alyssa nodded, and raised her blade again to attack.

…And so, the two spent the day there until they couldn't any longer….
