M

I have spent 15 years of my life there but on my 16th birthday my life would change

"Make a wish" was heard from Lexcy the other orphan I had grow up with she is the same age as I and she has been a good friend to me with her long blonde hair and here cute smile and her blue eyes it's amazing she hasn't been adopted I have seen her go into the interview room with a family time after time but I don't ask why. "hurry up I'm hungry" Pete said loudly not even trying to be subtle Pete was the crazy kooky quirky figure that kept everyone amused "quiet Pete you can have your piece eventually come on now tom don't be shy" the light angelic like voice was heard form Rinia our caretaker young at 32 she was with us since I got here she never got angry just disappointed she was always so nice so we all decided to be as helpful as possible after all she's the closest thing to a mother I ever had already I was surrounded by friends my family I thought I turned to the cake blew out the candles...nothing as the candles flickered slowly as if time were slowing down and voices were heard at a deep pitch and suddenly all image suddenly drooped like an painting after contact with water leaving only darkness and suddenly my life was ripped away for me Alone in a place full of children it was an eerie new feeling and as if reacting to my thoughts thousands of red eyes appeared around me I can easily say I have never felt more fearful for my life then the eyes moved around me just like sharks circle there pray "crap" this was far too far-fetched to be real right ? Just then one shadowy claw scratched my skin the scratch was deep it bled but the blood? It was ...blue? And it's dripping upwards? Then I hear the hissing in the darkness lustful beasts! At this moment in time I was torn between fear and anger another lash came t me "arg" the hit landed the speed of the attacks were quick and the blows were preposterously hard this was to painful to be fake if I didn't fight back soon I would be dead. Suddenly out if the dark came a blue crystal like colour and suddenly a woman emerged welding an odd kitarna its shape was usual but the blade was see-through and had a glassy like shine to it the woman turned to face me she had elegant long strands of the lightest blue she was in a battle kimono and she had weird cat ears she was no older then 16-17 maybe she spoke with an elegant tone of refined beauty then she shouted one thing "RUN" I complied as I bolted away I turned to see her getting attacked dam! I couldn't run I turned around and rushed back my blue blood then started to form something in my hand it fused with the other liquids until it suddenly formed a kitarna in my hand it was a long blade with loads of light blue glowing symbols like some kind of ancient weighting it was a deep blue blade then a shadow beast lunged for the girl. I swung my blade violently in its direction and then a huge blue flame covered my sword and illuminated the darkness the beasts began to shreak and faded into nothingness. Then the girl turned to me and gave me an astonished look witch quickly turned into an annoyed one after a quick shake "what the hell do you think you're doing? You could have been killed and I could have been killed trying to save you!"She mooned. She moved into a more curious tone "And how did you use your spirit like that? It's never happened to any humans before?"I was curious about what I was hearing "soul?" I remarked " what else do you think comes from inside you that's blue besides didn't you know that when you tried to save me ?" she smiled as she motioned towards me After a sigh her tone become composed and grateful as she said " but thanks' for helping me" she whispered into my ear then she pulled back and lent forward and landed a kiss on me. She pulled away after a few seconds (pitifully this was my first kiss T_T) she turned away and started walking away as colour came back slowly "what's your name" I shouted desperately an faint echo came back "Minori " the sound was distant and muffled but it was a name I will always remember Minori ! .

Just a dream?

The next day I woke up in a cold sweat "Minori" I gasped I looked around I rubbed my eyes confused I saw a heap of presents next to my bed wow my big day and I missed it I looked at the bottom of my bed there was a present wrapped in newspaper? I leant over to see the tag Minori! I quickly opened up the present a book was left with some instructions. I decided to take it downstairs and contemplate the book over a glass of water as I went downstairs I heard a letter come through the letter box I wounded over to investigate the envelope was for tom! for Me? I took the mail with me into the kitchen I ran the tap and took the drink as I sat down my heart was beating at hundreds of miles an hour I took a deep breath after my experience I needed some normality so I decided to open the envelope first ...I went to bed left the book and the now opened envelope under my pillow it was too much too soon I got to bed and blacked out .Again. I woke later on lexcy was in pieces cry at the bottom of my bed I patted her on the back "I'm not dead you dope" I said playfully she turned and hugged me tightly "you idiot you made me worry!"She looked up at me with relief and tears in her cute blue eyes "I'm sorry next time I faint I will be sure not to inconvenience you" I said with a smile. She hugged me in a cute embrace after yesterday's events it felt good to come back down to Omnivri however I knew that I would have to look at the letter and the odd book again but not now I need to feel normal again so I packed my bag with the common school utensils and my notes and also the letter and book I slipped on my jet black blazer and my light blue school shirt and my black trousers and set out to school
