I don't own Timecrest rice belongs to sneaky crab
OK, here we go. We're now in chapter 1. Our first chapter of the story is gonna get good now I don't know how long the story will be. I said it will be as long as I say it will be, and when it ends when it ends cause I'm not sure yet, it'll be 20 chapters. Maybe it'll be 15. Maybe it'll be but we don't know. I have some great new stories getting started and sequels and circles and all kinds of things going on. I hope you enjoy this one too. I hope you enjoy my standalone stories and go check out the full story of, the prodigal sibling it is complete. I hope you go and check that out. All right please enjoy.
also, this is a double chapter and Ash and Scarlet chapter. I know it's weird they're siblings so you don't need to worry they're not siblings but they're not romantically inclined obviously but they are friends kind of I guess all right let's see.
Ash
we've been living in this quarantine zone for a year and I've been having a great time but Scarlet isn't she's hoping for the day we leave soon I mean I guess if I was like her I wouldn't blame her, but I don't want to stay. I want to stay here father trying to figure out how to get us out of here but it's so chill trying to negotiate with them. I'm like well I guess we can do that. I'll help Scarlet is upset though doesn't care that much. I'm guessing she's hoping for something awesome to happen soon.
Mom and Dad and I are enjoying ourselves somewhat. I'm even more complacent than my pet than our parents though I think it's Scarlet that's keeping them from going completely over the edge especially that's fine. I just called her Miss Scarlet because well she's not my sister.
And we're going to visit the we're gonna go visit the palace. Yay, I can't wait Scarlett is happy too, but not for that reason she's happy that she's getting out of the place for a time. I'm just happy not for that, but I'm happy to see the palace. As the ambassador family, we get that opportunity in that chance I guess because Scarlet is some kind of prodigy of some and that's fine.
I heard Mom say Ash hurry up Scarlett's already ready fine I'm coming and read by the way that's my name so we've been living here in the quarantine zone for about a year 11 years old and Miss Scarlet is 16 oh 15 That's right she's 15. Wow, I guess she's kind of like a guardian to me I guess.
She said she was supposed to be training me but I'm not sure for what but I haven't been doing well. Whatever it is she's wanting me to be trained in and I don't have any magic so I don't get it. I never tried to get any because I wouldn't want magic, but I enjoy cooking art, and drawing more than I do anything else.
I'm not looking forward to operating the pocket watch. I don't want to or Scarlet told me that's OK cause I probably won't be able to anyway even though I was born to post to be the Timecrest I'm not she is that's fine too.
We took the train and we were in Val-d'Or. Wow, what an amazing place this is they discuss whatever plans they need to plan Scarlet and I just stood there until a young girl came up about eight and about six I'm Riley. She said I am the princess. Scarlet said hi I'm Scarlett Agnes. She said you don't share the same last name as the reads, no I heard her say no I don't she says and this is my little brother kind of this is Ash Reed. I've seen him once I think when they moved into when you all moved into the quarantine zones once.
last year said Riley yes I didn't notice all of you. Both of you are Miss Scarlet that gave me the confidence to keep going. Oh, I'm I'm glad Scarlet said I'm glad I was able to give you some kind of hope. Yes yes, maybe I can get something out of this not the bad way said Riley, maybe I can leave we both asked it once I don't like living here. It's not worth living and I shouldn't be. I don't want to be queen. She says looking at Miss Scarlet. She says to the young girl I guess she's blind and patted her on the head poor Riley we'll see if Mom and Dad can take you. I don't think they could, though we'd have to talk to your father about it, Scarlet said she can adopt you mom can adopt you like she did me, or Helena I should say can adopt you just like me are you abused? Yeah I have been so I've been that way ever since I was born said Riley.
refill sorry for the young princess. Why don't we go for a walk? She says I wanna show you around this place. We followed Riley out into the woods and then there was this little house. I think there's someone inside of it. Riley said I've been here before.
Scarlet
sure enough when Riley said that the door opened and a young girl with long black hair and silver eyes looked at us. She looked scared and was about to jump back when I said hey wait a minute she was startled for a moment yeah I heard Ash say excitedly and Riley too, we are not here to frighten you. We just wanna be your friend. I don't need friends. She said I'm a monster monster. Don't need friends. You don't look like one. Said you don't look like a monster. Do you have a name? Should we give you one should I give you one Riley you're the radiant girl she says and ginger. I don't know what to call you looking at, but I can't tell what you are
or who you are I usually base someone based on how they look to me sadly Annelise she introduced herself as Annelise
well Annelise, why don't you come with us? We're thinking about leaving Riley said well I am where are you gonna go? Annelise asked away and said Riley, Miss Scarlet, and Ash are going to go back to their home and they want me to come. I'm gonna try and see if the father will let me leave and maybe you can come with me Elise Annalise, please you don't belong locked away said Riley.
Maybe you're right said Annalise maybe you're right Riley maybe I should leave with you and miss Scarlet and Ash. She says OK OK maybe that's a good idea. It's better than being locked in here.
But you won't have freedom said Miss Scarlet I said, looking at her sensing her you'll be trapped in the quarantine zones you and Riley and you'll have to be the ambassador's daughter completely more than I am and you'll have to obey rules Annelise. I'm fine with that said Annalise I'd rather be anywhere than here, the tall man wants to kill my mother and I wanna live in the light so if you could show me how to live in the light and live in your light, Riley, Miss Scarlet, and Ash then maybe I can live a life Course Julius is trying to figure out a way to get us out. I said that would be nice. Live freedom outside the quarantine zone walls. That would be interesting, wouldn't it?
looks like you have a pocket watch Annalise said yes I asked I said answering her. Yes, I have the pocket watch and I am an active Timecrest. I would've figured that your brother would be or Ash would be the Timecrest right now I am I have to train him, but I don't think he'll be. I think the next one will be Won't Take You No cause I want magic I'm only active on Timecrest the whole .0 that sounds interesting. Well then yes I would love to join you and I would love to help you with your mission, Miss Scarlet. and Riley Riley smiled. I don't wanna be locked in the quarantine zones either but it's our only thing and our only chance right now and the only thing we know right now said Riley, but if you live with us, we can have a great time.
I like it said Annalise you and you and Miss Scarlet Riley will be good friends of mine said San Annalise and I guess you too Ash as well. She says that she looks over at Ash Ash's OK but if your mission is to leave, I don't know if I would want to why it's not right for us to be in there since I said looking at them now let us go and find our families come on Annelise I said, sensing her hand and taking it you will not go back in that tower. Annelise took my hand, and I took Riley's hand, and Ash walked with us.
what have I got myself into now? I thought as we walked back to the palace. Our little adventure wasn't over yet. We returned to the palace and we saw King Janice with with Julius and Miss Helena, looking at us exploring what is Annelise doing out of her room looked at him well, I don't wanna live here anymore and I know you're gonna kill my mother and I don't wanna live here anymore so I want to grant you permit me to leave said Annelise you don't want me anyway that is true but why is Riley leaving? He asked. you're my air Riley why are you leaving?
are you sure you want me as your air said, Riley? Yes, he says Riley you're the princess both you and Annalise Annelise's face with white for a moment I am a princess of course you're my daughter, and Elise you are a princess Annelise then I want to leave because you imprisoned me.
OK OK Jenna says all right. I will talk to Mr. and Mrs. Timecrest and see if they or Mr. Mrs. Reed'll let me let you become part of their family girls since you've asked, I guess even though I normally wouldn't like this, I don't wanna get rid of Riley I can get rid of elite Annise instead, but since you want to leave Riley, I'll let you go to, you don't treat me better than Annalise said Riley we don't live good positions here. I take nothing but good care of you Riley. No Riley said no you haven't said Riley. You treat me a little better than Annelise, but she didn't treat me any better than Annalise at the same time.
so we're gonna run away fine the two of you can leave. I'll just sign some paperwork and U2 can live with Miss Helena and Mr. Julius I guess but you'll have to become vast ambassador daughters. That means you have to obey new rules and things the girls knotted good to see you miss Scarlet. He said good to see you too your majesty said I had to be respectable to the king somewhat even though I didn't feel that way you a Timecrest I nodded. Yes, how you're a natural. I was granted to besides. It doesn't matter to you if I'm a tiny crest or not but the real Timecrest will be born soon I know that, won't you be? No, I wanted at the magic I said.
I'm surprised you didn't ask for any credits for my inventions of the Ignas amulet I said Jenna said I don't care about that. You are a prodigy but I am not interested in your invention Miss Scarlet is very good then.
He said goodbye to us as we walked off and found our parents. He's even given paperwork to Helena and Julius to Miss Lena and Mr. Julius to sign to take Annalise and Riley with us. We took Annelise and Riley home with us to the quarantine zones and they were part of our family.
but they weren't like Ash they were like me. They wanted their freedom after this so hoping we will. I said I hope I hope I hope we get our freedom soon. I said to them now let us prepare for our freedom for one day girls I'm gonna try and work with Dr. Crawford. I want to learn to be a healer. She said said oh you be good at that. I said Ashli even agreed and so did Annalise good Riley and we now don't have our Vald Dorian tattoos, also took another girl with Zoe. I guess she was also there to take her. Our family was big. We had a three-year-old little girl and 28 years two six-year-olds well I guess that's fine.
our family has grown and we were happy, not complacent but happy Zoe didn't want the quarantine zones either in the Volans to die too or at least something bad happened to them. Ash just wanted them to be brought to Justice. We told him that couldn't be possible. no no, it can't be possible, but Father says it can Ash says of course he does. I thought well we'll see but I don't think we'll get peace and safety freedom and prosperity. I thought OK we need to put up with this for a while.
I love my family, but sometimes they can be a little complacent except for Riley and Annalise, and Zoe ashes mother is mother Helena or Miss Helena and Julius. Well, I guess that's fine but I'll figure out a way to get us out of here. I hope that happens soon.
I want to see my father. I miss Kane all right but I don't miss my brother. That's a good thing I guess. And he hasn't bothered me so that's a good thing. I guess well, we'll see. We'll see.
I know it's another short one, but we're ending here. Am I getting bad at telling longer chapters no, but some of these chapters are just hard to figure out what we're gonna do next and we can fit everything in one chapter and some of these so I'll see you in the next one. See you later
see you in chapter 2
next chapter chapter 2
