This is one of the stories I transferred over from my other website. (visit my profile for full details) You see, OCxCharacter pairings were fairly popular among their fanfiction stories and it was common for one to write a detailed profile for their OC before starting the story itself. It was also normal for some writers to refer to their OCs from '2nd person' in their stories. I'll be changing it from 2nd person to 1st person when I transfer them over to this website. Be aware that this was my FIRST time writing a fanfiction, EVER! So excuse me if the writing is a bit…well, 'off'.

The Discovery of Her Purpose (part 3)

Heya wombles! If you don't like me calling you that just tell me and I will stop, ok?

***

The next day, another ordinary day at my country town. My job every day is to get up, go to school, come home, homework, TV, bed. But today, things aren't really as they are. At the moment I'm walking home from school with my friends Jasmine and Xiao Xiao. (pronounced 'Jow-Jow')

"I told you guys, I was only there for two hours." I said to them.

"Heh, yeah but it sounds like you spent the 'whole' time dreaming about the boy who gave you that rag in your pocket." said Jasmine.

"You must've really cared for him, Heidi." Xiao Xiao said, "To spend two hours in a creepy place like that."

I started feeling embarrassed, "I told, you. ONLY two hours."

Jasmine crossed her fingers and put them to her cheek and said in a dramatic voice

"Dreaming about lost love." she sighed, "He must be very dreamy."

"Oh, grow up will you?" I told her.

The three of us walk through a marketplace where Jasmine spots a large demon-like figure ahead and at a distance there seems to be some sort of commotion.

"What's happening over there?" she asked.

"Let's go find out." I suggested.

"It doesn't look very safe." said Xiao Xiao.

"Xiao Xiao, you chicken." Jasmine replied. "It'll be fun."

Xiao Xiao stops walking making me stop with her.

"Come on, let's go. We'll be with you." I smiled assuringly.

"...Oh...okay." she said.

The three of us walk towards the demon like figure and find that he is tearing the whole place to shreds.

"Where are they?!" he was shouting, "Where are the rest of the apostles! Tell me where's Jasmine Kyot and Xiao Xiao Hwang!"

My eyes widened. "(Did he just boom out the names of both my friends?)"

"Hey, you! I'm right here! You don't need to shout. Sheesh!" Jasmine called.

"Jasmine, no!" I said, "We don't know what this guy wants!"

"I am Xiao Xiao Hwang. Are you a mascot?" asked my other friend.

"Xiao Xiao!" I exclaimed.

They both stepped forward, just when the large demon ran forward and grabbed them both.

"HAHAHAHAHA!" The demon laughed. "Now Aion will free me from this...huh? The guardian!?"

He was looking straight at me. I looked around; everyone else was looking at me too.

"Guardian? Me? What the heck are you talking about?" I asked skeptically.

The demon chuckled. "Didn't you know? You're fourteen aren't you? This is the age when you're supposed to serve your purpose."

"Purpose?"

"Yes, that's right. Your powers."

He still had Jasmine and Xiao Xiao in his arms, though somehow they were unconscious.

"Let my friends go!" I cried.

"Don't make me laugh. I came here to take your friends and take off. But I can't leave the Guardian of the Apostles lying around. I'll have to obliterate you!"

"Y-Yeah? Bring it on!" I said, trying to sound tough.

Suddenly a tall wall of light surrounded me and blasted off at the demon at first, but he dodged it, and it went in all directions. Everything had gone white. And then, when the smoke cleared, the result was unbearable. The sky had gone orange and the entire town was in flames. People began evacuating and charged towards the demon.

He shot a blast of energy from his hands at everybody. I raised my arms in front of my face to shield myself, then a blue force field formed around me and protected me from his attack.

"Hm. I have the last of the apostles. No work left here!" I heard him say, before hearing the sound of 'taking off' and wings flapping in the distance. He still had my friends in his grasp.

When my force field vanished, he was nowhere to be seen. The scenery around me was nothing but fire, smoke, dirt, and dead. Everyone had died from his blast of dark energy. Staring at the sky where the demon vanished, I sank to my knees and started crying.

.....

I was leaning against the tree near the entrance of my village crying into my school books when an old-fashioned ford pulled over in front of the gates. I lifted my head and saw two people come out of it; a familiar looking girl with blonde hair in a blue nun outfit and a boy in a red jacket with his purple hair in a braid behind his back.

I continued to look at the girl. After a while, she seemed to notice me.

".....Heidi?" she asked.

".....Rosette?" I replied.

The staring goes on for a moment when the boy interrupts. "Rosette, we're too late. The village is gone."

I stood up and looked at the view of the fired up town and townspeople and turned back. Rosette kept staring at me until she jumped and ran over to hug me.

"Heidi!" she exclaimed, delighted to see me.

"It's so good to see you, Rosette." I hugged her back, before I glanced back at my surroundings. "I normally don't greet people gloomily, but today, isn't looking so good."

Rosette let go of me and observed the scenery.

"This idiotic demon guy with wings took off with my friends leaving my home looking like this!" I shouted suddenly.

The boy ran over and stood beside Rosette. "Did he say what his name was?" he asked.

"No! He did say something about some other named Aion."

Rosette gasped.

"Go on…" the boy urged.

I answered. "He called my friends 'apostles'. Something about them interested him so much he destroyed everything just to stop me from stopping him. For some reason he said to me 'I can't leave the Guardian of the Apostles lying around.' That's when he started attacking."

"Heidi...what happened four years ago. You still remember, don't you?" asked Rosette.

"(Yes, I do. I'll never forget it.)" I thought, then asked "Hey, just what are you two here for anyway?"

Rosette had snapped out of it and straightened up. "Oh yeah, the mission!"

"We were sent here to find the Guardian of the Apostles." said the boy.

"And it looks like we found her." Rosette said.

"Huh? What?" was my immediate response.

The boy explained. "You're the one we've been looking for. Come with us and we'll help you serve your purpose."

I looked at him for a moment, there was something about him I didn't feel comfortable with.

"Come on Heidi!" Rosette finally said, then wore an apolgetic look on her face, "Your town isn't here anymore. You've got no place else to go."

"(Well, as long as Rosette's around. I guess I'll be safe, but what is 'with' that boy she's with? There's something unsettling about him.)" I glanced at her. "Oh, alright."

Rosette walked off to the car and opened the door. I still stood there as the boy followed her off.

"Well, come in! The car's waiting." He said.

"We don't have all day you know!" said Rosette.

I woke myself up and ran over to them. "Uhh...where am I sitting?" I said, after looking inside the small car.

"Ah, that's right." said Rosette, "Chrono!"

"(Chrono?)"

The boy stopped stepping into the car. "Yes?"

"Make room for my good old friend! You're going to the back!"

"What?" he looked incredulous.

"I said to the BACK!"

At the word 'back' Rosette kicked the boy she called Chrono aside and he landed hard on his bottom beside the car.

"Ow..." he said, rubbing his backside.

"Um, thanks Rosette." I said, "But I really don't mind – "

"No problem!" she interrupted, "Just shut up and get in the car."

"(She hasn't changed one bit all these years, has she?)"

I get into the car seat and close the door while the boy climbs into the back. Rosette started the engine and drove off while I turned my head and gazed out the back window watching my lifelong home vanish into the horizon.

"Hey, you'll be safer at our place alright?" I heard the boy say. He must've noticed me staring from traveling the back.

I turned back around. "Speaking of place, who are you two working for?"

"The Magdalene Order, Father Remington picked us up during the accident four years ago." Rosette answered.

"The minister?" I asked, and then felt a pang of guilt as soon as I remembered. "I'm sorry I left you behind. I mean, I would've done something but I ran away instead."

There was a pause, and then she said "Don't sweat it! Thing's have been going fine. Enjoy yourself okay?"

She smiled at me, I didn't know how else to respond so I just smiled back. "Thanks."
