Curing A Lonely Heart With Friendship
A/N
Here's more of the story and I hope people like.
Rumpel isn't sure of Azura but he realises she's like him.
I hope people like.
Rumpel was nervous seeing Azura as Logan was in the kitchen making scones but the young ogre teen had warmth in her eyes seeing fear in Rumpel's eyes.
"Don't worry I won't hurt you." she reassured him.
"How can I trust you?
I'm just not good at trusting others.
I'm Rumpelstilkin." he told her shaking.
"I know who you are Rumpel.
Besides you should trust others.
You might be surprised." she told him.
Rumpel whimpered feeling intense pain flow through his body and remembered he'd been in the forest out cold.
"I found you out cold and wounded." she said.
Rumpel was stunned hearing this from the young ogre teen and saw she had a kind heart but sensed she had magic.
"Maybe I could trust this kid.
She kind of reminds me of myself as a teen." he thought.
Logan then came in with herbal tea and scones.
He was stunned seeing Rumpel but Rumpel was nervous seeing Logan because he looked like Brogan.
"Don't worry he won't hurt you.
He's Logan my best friend." she reassured him.
"Okay kid." Rumpel said softly.
Azura smiled drinking herbal tea but was nervous knowing Logan's parents along with Shrek and the others about Rumpel because he'd tricked them and made their lives miserable in the alternate Far, Far Away.
"Don't be afraid Azura.
I already promised I wouldn't tell." Logan reminded her.
"I know but he could still find him here.
You know what your Dad's like." she answered.
Logan nodded in reply knowing his father.
But he realised he should be getting back before his parents came looking for him and he didn't want Azura to get into trouble if Brogan came here and found Rumpel.
"I'll come back later, okay?" Logan said.
Azura nodded blushing.
She saw Rumpel had fallen asleep after that.
She then decided to go outside for a little while.
Logan wondered why his Dad and the rest of the movement were on high alert and training more than usual while his Mom was busy cooking up meals for them as he saw his seven year old sister playing with her friends.
"Daddy says Rumpel's around here somewhere.
That's why he and the other grown-ups are training." she said.
Logan was nervous but relaxed knowing that they didn't know Rumpel was with Azura but sighed as he went to join his mother as he liked helping her.
He had amazing cookery skills in the kitchen but Brogan had always wanted to train him and make him the leader of the movement once he was old enough but Cookie knew he didn't want to but knew Rose had potential as a warrioress which made Brogan happy but Rose wasn't old enough to start training.
"Hey Logan honey.
You wanna help with the Sloppy Joes?" Cookie asked.
Logan nodded.
"So you were with Azura, right?
Did you tell her how you feel?
I can tell you like her." she said.
Logan blushed hearing that.
"M-Mom!
Well... I-I do like her.
But it's hard to tell her.
We've been friends since we were little." he answered.
Cookie understood seeing him place the Sloppy Joes into the stove.
"I know you can do it honey.
You can be stubborn like your father." she answered,
Logan nodded.
He would wait until his parents and Rose went to bed before leaving so he could go visit Azura.
He hoped she was okay.
Rumpel's eyes opened slowly as he wondered why he wasn't in his carriage but remembered what had happened but smelled something cooking as it smelt like a pie as he felt intense pain flow through his body from his wounds but was stunned seeing Azura enter with an aura of happiness in her seeing he was awake.
"Wait a second.
Why aren't you mad at me?
Everybody else is." he told her.
"I know the story Rumpel.
Logan told me.
But I can see in your heart that you're sad.
Alone like me." she answered.
He was stunned hearing that from her.
He sensed an aura of magic from her.
(Rumpel's P.O.V)
Why is she being so nice to me?
She should be angry at me since everybody else in Far, Far Away hates me too but for some reason, she seems like a magic user which is strange for somebody like her.
Maybe I can help her.
Looking into people's hearts takes powerful magic...
I could use a protege.
(End P.O.V)
"Are you okay?
You seem distracted." she said to him.
Rumpel sighed as he knew that most of Far, Far Away had outcasted and rejected him for what he'd done but this girl wasn't mad but could sense she was a magic user.
"It's just you don't seem like the other people of Far, Far Away.
They outcasted me after I tried to take over." he said.
"Because you're like me when I was in the shelter.
My parents were taken by hunters the night I was born.
But I was taken into care and sent to a children's home.
For many years, nobody wanted me.
I decided like Fiona, I wanted to take life into my hands.
I used my magic to grow dragon wings and escaped.
I've been living here ever since." she told him.
He was stunned hearing that.
"What about you?" she asked him.
"I lived with my mother until I was seven.
That was when my magic kicked in and I ran away.
That was when I found Fifi my friend and pet.
I've been alone ever since." he answered.
She was stunned hearing this.
But Logan was stunned.
He'd heard this when coming in...
