The little girl woke up with one of her eyes missing. She tried to scratch the darkness away from her supposed to be eye, but she felt a smooth texture that replaced it. The wondered what the texture was, she guessed it was either glass or plastic. With her left eye gone, she struggled to rely on her right eye.
"Ah! You woke up child!" Carnis said with a sigh.
"Why did you take my eye?"The little girl yelled getting mad at the dragon. Her aura rising to a deathly black color. Carnis was shocked at the little girl, she managed to bring out her power so quickly.
"It was the first step of earning your powers. If you still had it, you wouldn't be able to bring out your full potential." Carnis lied to the little girl. When the little girl heard his reason she calmed down. Her energy dulled to a grey color.
"Now child what is your name?" he questioned the little girl.
"I don't know. Papa always called me Experiment 1." The little girl replied patting her hair.
"We'll how about we call you," Carnis paused before finishing, "How about we call you May."
"Why May?" the girl asked as she tilted her head in wonder.
"Flowers bloom in May." was Carnis' only reply.
The year was X413, colonies started to form all around Fiore. In a middle of a meadow, there stood a brown dragon and a girl who is taller than most women of this time period. She stood 5'9", but not so busty as the town's women. She sent attacks to the large dragon, one after another attacks became to dull and the girl became tired. The dragon raised his claws and swooped down smacking the girl into a tree. She let out a whimper and got up from the ground her eye flashed red while the other was covered by her black bangs. She growled as fangs drew out of her mouth.
"May! You have not improved! Until you actually damage me till I can't fly, you're not aloud to sleep inside the cave!" Carnis roared accidentally knocking some trees down, but May stood there still with a scowl on her face.
"Fine!" She stomped away from the large creature, while her dark aura blaring through the bright day light.
Usually May is a cheery girl, she would bring joy around her, but Carnis has been training her to the point where she can't take it. Her body was sore to the point anything she touched burned her. May walked to the nearest town to take a small break away from her dad. Her long, black hair tousled in the wind as the unbalanced cobble stone became even. The air smelt of fresh baked bread and ripened fruit. The towns people smiled and laugh, always cheerful and never dull.
May stopped to rest under a large tree in the middle of the town's square. Out of know where a small red object fell from inside the tree and landed on top of her head. May looked at the object, she studied the red orb and saw it was an apple. She looked up above her and saw a boy around her age cheekily smiling down at her. He hopped down to the ground right next to her.
"Oi! Sorry 'bout that! They call me Jasper, and you are?" The boy with shaggy brown hair, he had a scar on his face that goes over one of his eyes.
May studied his features Jasper was a little muscular compared to other boys his age, but he sure was fit enough to lift a huge metal pipe. May looked at him before flipping her bangs upward to let him catch a glimpse of her red glass eye. She wanted peace and quiet, but this Jasper kid, was in the way of it. Seeing that he wasn't scared of her glass eye, she sighed and gave in without a fight.
"May Herbiva." she replied with her eyes closed.
"Oh cool! Are you a mage? I can sense great power from you! I can tell because I'm a Lightning Dragon Slayer!" Jasper said sitting down by May. He held his hands together with the apple in his grasp.
"I got this scar when I obtained to produce magic. My dragon, Flashgino taught me since I was little. I made this machine, but I'm still working on the minor details." Jasper rambled on pulling out a weird contraption with spikes on both sides on round spheres.
"My dad his name is Carnis, he teaches me the 5 senses magic." May replied with a tick on her forehead, "What is the machine supposed to do?"
"Hmm, I don't know yet. I was think I can build it for entertainment, you know when you just want to chill for a second." He replied placing the machine on his head.
"Why don't you play music from them?" She suggest closing her eyes, waiting for a response.
"Music? What is that? Is it a type of food or is it a type of magic?" Jasper replied in excitement and curiosity. May snapped her eyes open and looked at the lighting mage in shock.
"You don't know what Music is!?" She yelled sitting straight up, from the tree, "I'll show you then."
May waved her hands in a spiral motion and the tree started to split bits a bark out. A weird shape appeared from the tree, and Jasper gasp in wonder. Towns men who where walking nearby stopped in amazement. This was a different magic then most. The shape landed in front of May, as she stood up and placed it on her shoulder to her wrist.
"Now watch and learn, cause I'm about to teach you about the thrill of Music." May said standing in front of the boy.
Her hands flew from different tunes, a group of townspeople gathered around the girl and boy. Magic circles appeared around her fingers giving out happy signals to anyone who was listening. That was when Jasper and May shared a special connection.
The year was X686, May was still alive but Jasper has past. It's been over 200 years since she last saw him. May dedicated herself to only work on advancing in her magic. She never aged since her 17th birthday. May always asked Carnis why but he would always shake his head, and said "Someday you'll find out on your own, now lets get back to training."
"Now focus May! Try to feel it within this soil." Carnis voice boomed, May and Carnis were sitting on top of Herbiva's meadow. Carnis was trying to teach her how to bring things back up from the dead.
He was trying to make her revive Herbiva, so he can reunite with her once again. May sighed and scratched her head, "Why am I doing this? I don't understand this point."
"Hush child, you need to focus." Carnis whispered. Black Air started to swirl around her sweat dripped down from her forehead. She felt her mind going fuzzy, as she remembered something in the past.
"I'm Sorry. I'm Sorry. I'm Sorry. I'm Sorry. I didn't mean to. I can't control it." A boy's voice screamed. Lightning flashed everywhere, striking three men close by. Guards tackled the boy down to the ground, knocking him out. A girl could be heard screaming "Let him go!"
"JASPER!" The girl tried to reach for his hand, but she was hold back by a pair of guards. The council took Jasper into prison before court. For days May waited outside for Jasper return. She haven't eaten for days, even weeks before a council member came out of the building.
"Jasper has been counted guilty for the murder of three innocent bystanders."
May eyes snapped open, her breathing was uneven as she held her head in her hands. Why did she have a vision of him? Tears fell from her eye, she stayed there as Carnis silently closed his eyes, feeling guilt. The emotions spilled from her, anger, depression, confusion, and guilt. Her hands touched the warm ground as a tear dropped onto the moist soil. The ground began to shake as May cried harder. It is all my fault, I could of stopped him. IT'S ALL MY FAULT! May face-planted onto the wet grass.
A large mass fused out of the ground, it was rather a large creature, some may call it a beast but it is most known as a Dragon. Not just any dragon, the dragon of month May, Herbiva. Carnis cried at the sight of her. Scales were missing, you could see organs spilling from her rib cage. Her head was half missing. Herbiva's jaw was broken, hanging loosely from her upper jaw. Carnis was speechless, yet sadden.
"Herbiva what happened to you?" Carnis asked inching closer to the female dragon.
"What happened? I died Carnis, I need to go back to where I belong. I was meant to die. You know that, I wouldn't be happy to live a life that I wasn't meant in." Herbiva answered quietly and softly.
"But we can be together now." Carnis replied desperately. He want Herbiva to be with him so that they can live happily together again.
"No, it doesn't work like that." Herbiva said, " Farewell Carnis."
Herbiva smiled at Carnis before she disappeared, and May woke up from the ground with a groan. She rubbed her head and look up at Carnis. Fear took over her expression, Carnis was crying. She was worried and wobbled over to Carnis and hugged his leg.
