Welcome to the second chapter of The Kharlan Wars!
DICLAIMER: I only own the characters I made up-I don't own the original characters from tales of Symphonia!
Bluebell was watching Miley sleep… Miley was a heavy sleeper when she has nightmares, then she isn't…
Miley had short blond hair that covers her right eye. She was in her pink and purple pyjama's. She usually played around with people in the village-her best friend had now died… Killed along with her father, Miley had not seen that happen but Bluebell had and daren't tell Miley about it at all, dreading her response would be even more tears…
Bluebell was thinking back to that night as well but she knew better than to dwell on the past… 'What's done is done…' she thought over and over again. She was gazing out the windows of the inn they had arrived and stayed in since they had ran away from their hometown… She wondered how they were going to get a new home.
It was hard enough getting one in their hometown for being a family of five half-elf daughters and one human daughter. Bluebell, Cherry, Storm and Miley were all half-elves but Karen was a human. Their mother had no clue how that happened as she, herself, was an elf and her father was human… Karen took after her father a lot more than her mother in appearance but in personality, she took after her mother.
Bluebell was really tired. Ever since Miley started having nightmares she woke up every night comforting her. Her sisters and mother were all heavy sleepers so they didn't know Miley cries at all in the night.
Bluebell wore a long, bright blue shirt, with blue leggings and black boots. Her hair was let down and half way down her back, it was a deep sea blue colour and her eyes were a light sea blue colour. Many men loved her and wanted to be with her but she didn't care for relationships at the moment-she just wanted her family back to normal… She loved the colour blue and was mainly by the sea at every chance she gets. It relaxed her so much, how one little incident can destroy someone's happiness… Right now, Bluebell is only twenty yet, she looks only sixteen.
In the room over, Karen was awake as well. She also had trouble sleeping but that isn't the main reason… Her younger sister, Cherry, had fallen ill a few nights ago and her health is deteriorating quickly. Karen constantly tries to get her to eat and drink but its hopeless now… In a few days Storm will die… Everyone in the family knows but Miley… She was so young, yet, she was going through so much. Karen hoped that this would only make her stronger. Karen will be twenty soon, but right now she's nineteen. She was the second oldest 'child' as her mother would say.
Karen usually stayed up during the night. She didn't have insomnia, she was up when the moon was out so she was always asleep when the sun was up. She was wearing her favourite outfit, even though its night. It had all red and purple patterns all over it, she had matching boots as well-long black boots with red skulls on them. Her hair was a red-brown colour-it was really long but she loved her long hair. Men always stared at her but she'd always turn them down. She was single and she loved it.
Storm was fast asleep. She also had nightmares about that tragic night… She never cried out in the night though. she thought she was too young for that to happen. She knew as well. She knew she was dying. Bluebell, Karen and Miley are the most likely to the surviving three out of the daughters.
Cherry is also developing the same symptoms as her and if Cherry and Storm both die… its most likely Alexandra would die as well… She's seen mainly with Cherry and Storm so she may die from illness…
Their mother was out in the forest talking to herself. She knew so well that two or three of her daughters will die very soon… She looked to the sky, "honey? If you can hear me please send me a sign to let me know you're watching over us…" nothing happened. She sighed, then the wind blew-it was him. Her eyes began to water, "thank you," she whispered then went back inside to tend to her ill daughters…
