Chapter 2: The New Mission
(Rena's POV)
It was a bright and sunny day in the Elf Village. No Chaos, no Demons, and especially no gang. I sighed. I fidgeted with a strand of my long gren hair to waste time.
Today was a special day off for me, which was quite rare. It seems that Nature Priest, Rena was just a regular elf for today.
I wasn't wearing my holy priest clothing, but instead wore my promotion dress. It felt like I was back in the gang already, but I wasn't.
What do I do now? Hmm...I got an idea. I got up from the wooden chair that was inside my spaceous living room and headed down the long stairway.
I chuckled. The stairway to my door was more like a skywalk, connecting between my door and my living room. My house was built on top of a tree and was connected to another.
I smiled. I feel like a real elf. As I reached my door, I pulled out a lever that unfolded a rope that I use to get down to the ground. It was quite an easy way for me to reach the ground without me having to jump. Jumping was a bad idea considering how far from the tree to the ground.
When I finished climbing down from my ladder, I looked around to see a regular elf forest on a sunny day. Houses, shops, and building were all scattered around the forest floor.
Some elves prefered to live in the treetops while other prefered to live on the ground. Shops and building were built usually next to a tree, where they were safe from danger.
As I continued walking around the village, many of the villagers greeted me with welcoming smiles.
"Miss Rena would you care to try my new invention?" The village's cook asked as he held up what looked a new kind of salad.
"Maybe later Cook!" I replied as I waved goodbye to him.
"Come any time Miss Rena!" He shouted as he continued cooking.
"Miss Rena would you teach you show to shoot an arrow?" Melody, one of the village's only female girls asked as she pulled my skirt.
"Of course, but maybe later Melody." I sweetly replied as we wrapped our pinkies together to show a pinky promise.
"You promise?" She asked as her blue eyes gleamed.
"I promise." I said as I shook her pinky and waved goodbye.
As I strolled through town, I reached a familiar building where I heard familiar shouts.
I peeked inside to see what the ruckus was all about.
"I'm WAY better than you and you know it Yoru!" A blonde haired male elf with cerulean blue eys shouted as he pointed an accusing finger at his partner.
"No I'm better than YOU Sora and you KNOW it!" A navy blue haired male elf with the same shade of cerulean eyes as his partner shot back and he clenched his teeth.
I sighed. Their at it again. "You two are as nosiy as ever huh?" I asked as I stepped into the room with my hands on my hips.
The two elves froze and slowly turned their heads. When they saw who made that comment their eyes turned wide and their angry expression turned into excited ones.
"RENA!" They shouted in union as they raced to me and gave me a VERY big hug.
I petted both their hairs and smiled. "Its nice to see you again, Sora and Yoru." I said as I revealed a wide smile.
Yoru and Sora are my apprentices in the Elf Village. Yoru and Sora are both 14 year old boys that are learning how to become professional archers from me, Rena the Grand Archer. While Sora is energectic and friendly, he can become aggresive when it comes to arching. Yoru on the other hand, is quiet and resourceful and takes his time to find the opponents weak points. Both are very good listeners and learners, but they have a long way to go to become a Grand Archer.
As they backed away from the hug, we started talking about their improvements and such.
After a while of talking, we decided to take a short break. Just as I was about to drink my herbal tea, a loud knock came on the door. I quickly got up and opened the door.
Standing outside was the Elder, looking rather worried. "What is it Elder?" I asked with a worried expression on my face.
"Rena there isn't much time to explain so just come with me and hurry." She quickly said as she dragged me from the doorway and gestured me to follow her.
I didn't complain at all, the only thing was that I was worried. What's happening?
Setting Change: Elf Village's Sanctuary
"Elder what am I doing here?" I asked her as I looked around the large sanctuary.
"Rena I need you to go to the mortal world again because their is a demon attack on the land of Elrios." She calmy yet seriously told me.
I just stared. "B-But I thought the demons were wiped out!" I argued as my expression turned worried.
"Everyone thought they were wiped out, but it seems that a demon portal has reopened in an area in Elrios." She explained, her gaze not shifting away from mine.
I bit the lower part of my lip. I sighed. "Rena you given the mission to make sure that the demons do not revive again, do you understand?" She asked in a stern tone.
I felt unready. "What about the Nature El, my job as a priest, and what about Yoru and Sora?" I asked in a worried tone. I can't leave them...not yet...
"Rena everything is going to be taken care of and Yoru and Sora will be imformed, but you MUST journey alone...it's your mission." She sadly told me as her face turned into a sad smile.
I felt something stur in me, feelings...and emotions. Yoru...Sora...please take care of yourselves...
I breathed in and out. "Rena are you ready to start your new mission?" She asked as she lead me to a swirling green portal.
I nodded. "Then please...take care of yourself and good luck...Grand Archer..." She whispered before I stepped into the portal and my mind went blank...
...
...
"Mhmnnn...Hmm...Where am I?" I asked as I looked around my surroundings.
I familiar yet saddening sight appeared before me...Ruben Forest...
I drew a sad smile on my face. I sighed. Every memory in the past drifted into my mind...and stayed there.
Wait...something's off...
I looked down at myself to see my wearing different clothing
Instead of wearing my promotion clothes I was wearing casual looking clothing.
I was wearing a mint green butterfly top, white colored denim shorts, cream colored flats, and my long, flowing hair was pulled back in a neat bun.
My feather clips were still attached, but a green butterly clip was attached to the bottom edge of my bun.
A long bow was clutched in my hand. Wait...isn't this my promotion bow?Hm...I must have transformed into different clothing once I got there.
Wrapped over my shoulder was a neon pink bookbag that probably contained some material for my mission.
I looked around the familiar landscape, memories of the past flooded my mind. I clutched my fists, in frustration. I sighed. Where am I suppose to go now? Hm..I start by finding my way to Ruben Village.
As I started walking, I had a feeling that I was being followed. I shook it off.
*Click* I quickly turned around to see something moving in the bushes behind me. I stared suspiciously. "Who's there?" I asked as I slowly walked backwards.
There was no reply. I was getting impatient. "If someone's there hurry up and come out or I'll be forced to shoot an arrow there!" I threatened as I setted my bow in an aming postion.
"Wait...Please don't!" A familiar voice responded as he or she slowly got out of the bush.
It was a red haired man...around his early 20's holding what seemed to be a sword. His spiky hair and crimson red eyes brought a familiar feeling to me, but I shook it off.
I just stared. "SO...do you need something or do you just like stalking young woman?" I questioned accusingly as I brought my bow down.
He seemed startled by this question and quickly tried to explain himself.
"N-NO it's not what you think, it's just that I saw a portal open and I decided to see what was going on..." He stuttered as he shyly scratched the back of his head. He averted his eyes from me.
"Uh huh...so can you tell me your name please so I know who you are?" I asked boredly as I stared at the stranger.
"Oh sorry, My name's El-" He said, but he was cut off when he lifted his head and looked at me closely.
I have to tell..you it was uncomfortable. His eyes grew wide and he just stared. "R-R...Rena?" He stuttered as he blinked a few times.
I just stared, eyes wide..
How did this person know my name!? I never even met him..
Wait...don't tell me its...
Me: AND CUT! That is the end of this chapter! It's kinda a cliffhanger! :P. Anna-chan I hoped you liked it even though it might have been a bit boring. Yoru and Sora are my OC's that I made up for this story. And please review and tune in next time!~Aria
