This the second part of the prologue, and is written in the view of the 10 year old girl. In case you thought the last chapter was a bit short, sorry for that. The last chapter was written in the view of the 10 year old boy and that this is set after DQ1(sorry for not telling that in the last chapter).Anyway, please enjoy this chapter and hope you like it.

Note: If you already know who the 10 year old boy is, than you probably know who the 10 year old girl is

Prologue: Part II

A ten year old girl was swinging from the tallest in the Forests of Silence. The girl laughed as she the air brushed against her face as she landed perfectly on the ground. One of her animal friends landed on her head and cawed appreciatively and flew off to the next tree branch. The girl mumbled something to the small little creature on her shoulder. The small fuzzy animal nodded and nuzzled against the girl's neck. The girl held the creature tight and stroked his fur making the small creature squeak happily.

The girl looked up to find several pieces of fruit hanging from a tree branch. She turned to see the small creature had got of her shoulder and was staring longingly at the fruits. The little creature jumped up and down trying to make him high enough to reach the fruit. The girl laughed and coaxed the creature to climb back on her shoulder.

She then climbed up the tree herself and picked three fruits-one for her and two for her friends; the small fuzzy animal and the bird. She called for the bird to come to her and then gave him the fruit as he did so. The girl started to cut up her fruit and chatted with the forest animals and trees as she did so.

When the girl cut open the fruit she noticed that it had no seed. In place of where the seed should be was a small orange stone. She picked it up and held it in the sunlight light, where glows a golden radiance off its surface. She looked at the stone curiously, stones in the forest were not naturally that colour, neither did they glow in the sunlight. The girl pocketed the stone-she had better things to do than to look at the strange stone. She finished the rest of her fruit and went off with her animal friend not far behind.

She travelled to the edge of the forest to see if any Grey Guards had fallen into the Wennbar's trap. Her friends followed closely behind, staying as close to her as possible. The small creature got scared as they got closer. He hid in the girl's hair as the girl watched to see if there was any Grey Guards, sure enough there were two guards struggling to get up.

The girl approached the guards with care sorting out which of their belonging she should take. She debated with her two friends and let them pick an item. The small creature suggested for the swords but the girl declined, saying they had too many of them. The bird suggested for the fabric on the grey guards or one of their packs. The small creature squeaked happily, clearly agreeing with her bird friend. The girl looked at her two friends and nodded. But as she bent down to pick up one of the Grey Guards' packs a hand put a strong grip on her ankle.

Her two friends tried to pull the hand away, but the grip was too strong. The girl tried pulling her foot away but only ended up tripping over. She saw the Grey Guards get up and aimed their weapons at her. The girl felt both shocked and angry, the guards had only been pretending to be paralysed so that they could capture her just like her parents. She took out her dagger and gripped the strange stone as she did.

The girl held her weapon warily hoping that she could take on two Grey Guards with just that little knife. She also had felt confused as why she was intent on holding the strange stone. The thought made her mind wonder, but snapped back into focus when one of her friends cawed warningly as one of the Grey Guards swung their weapons at her. At the same time she felt a feeling overwhelm her and felt her eyes close. When she opened them again she found that she was in the middle of the forest again, only that the trees had grown a lot taller.

By now you should probably know who the two 10 year olds actually are. So in the next chapter I am going to be introducing the main characters and get on with what the summary is about. Please read and review and if you have any advice on how to improve, than that will be nice.

Thanks!
