~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
My name is Lucy. I don't really have a last name. I have golden blonde hair that went just passed my shoulders and chocolate brown eyes. When I was younger, around the age of five, a family they known as the Lobsters found me right outside of their town called Sun Village. The town was in the Fire Kingdom. Many travellers came through along with traders. They owned a very popular inn in the town and took me in. They already had a daughter who was just a year younger than me. Her name was Michelle.
Only a month after finding me they took in another young girl named Eclair. Eclair was only a month older than me. The Lobsters were a very nice people. They treated me like family. I was forever in their debt. Eclair, Michelle and I all got along so great and became very close. When I hit the age of 17 Mr and Mrs Lobster passed away leaving Michelle the inn. Together as sisters me, Michelle and Eclair took over the inn, working together to keep it running. We all promised to look after each other no matter what.
I always wondered about my pass, where I came from. Eclair never questioned hers but she recalls things. She never told us what those things were, she always had fear and worry in her eyes when she thought about where she use to come from. Michelle and I never questioned or pushed her. It was hard. It had been two years since Michelle's parents passed away. We still had the inn going. It was just three days before Christmas. Eclair and I had worked together in getting Michelle a gift.
She could of thrown us out years ago but she kept us under her roof, she told everyone we was her older sisters. To repay Michelle's parents I wanted to look after Michelle, I wanted to make sure she had a happy life. "It is getting late, people are already heading off to bed" Eclair smiled cleaning the bar. Eclair worked at the bar and when people checked in and out of the inn. Michelle worked as maid and helper. I also helped with being a maid along with being the inn's cook. "I can't sleep" Michelle giggled.
She was always so childish. I couldn't help but smile at her. "You are always like this around Christmas" Eclair laughed as I was at the tables getting some of the empty glasses left behind. I then noticed something out the window. A dancing red dragon flame, coming up through the town path. I put the glasses back down moving closer to the window to have a look. "Lucy" I heard Eclair's voice as she sounded worried. "Big Sister what is wrong?" Michelle soon asked using the nickname she gave me.
"Not sure, stay here "I replied before moving toward the entrance doors. I exited the inn to see a giant group of men and woman smirking. They started to split up as they used dark magic to attack the buildings. My eyes widen as one man looked right at me. "GRAB THE WOMEN AND CHILDREN" he soon shouted as I ran back inside the inn. Eclair's eyes widen with fear as Michelle looked confused. "Get Michelle downstairs" I ordered as Eclair looked at me. The only thing I had to connect me to my past was magic keys.
I could use the keys to summon spirits to help me. I heard it was rare magic to have. "You can't fight an army by yourself" Eclair replied sounding worried for me as I smiled at her. "Keep her safe" I whispered to Eclair before heading back outside. "BIG SISTER" I heard Michelle shout as some men was outside waiting for me. All smirking, some holding torches. There was a loud bell ringing through the town warning them of an emergence. I grabbed one of the magic keys I had as the men in front of me just laughed.
"She's a mage boys" one of the men spoke as they was all wearing masks and black clothing. My grip on the key tighten. "Gate Of The Lion, LEO" I shouted turning the key in midair to see a trusted friend show in front of me. Loke had orange spiky hair with two bits looking like cat ears, he always had sunglasses on as well as a black suit. "Seems you guys are threatening my Lucy" Loke spoke harshly as sadly the one bad thing about my good friend was that he was a flirt and a playboy. He always came when I needed him.
If that was to have a shoulder to cry on, to protect me or even just to help out around the inn when it was busy. "A Celestail Mage?" a man asked shocked as Loke moved attacking them. I soon heard a young girls scream as I turned my head to see a young girl being pinned into a wall by one of the masked men. I moved fast heading toward him as I ended up punching the man around the face. "You bitch" he snapped as the punch, pushed him back making him let go of the young girl. "Run" I nearly shouted to the girl.
She listened right away rushing off. I then turned my head seeing the man glaring my way. The only thing you could see from these people were their eyes. I soon felt great pain from my side as I turned my head to see another man stabbing me. "LUCY" I heard Leo's voice as I felt him being forced to return to his world. I fell onto the ground as the men laughed. "Stupid woman" the men laughed as I looked up to see a part of the building I was next to fall down. It soon landed on my right leg making me let out a scream of pain.
My eyes were watering as everyone were getting blurry. "Crap it's the royal guards, move" a man shouted as there was screams echoing around me. Soon after hearing the footsteps of people running all I heard was horses rushing toward the town. I moved my hand onto the place I got stabbed putting presser on it. That would slow some bleeding down. "FIND SURVIVORS" I heard a male's voice shout as I tried calling for help but my voice had left me. A pain replacing it as I hear running.
"GOT ONE HERE" I heard the male voice that shouted before scream. I looked to see a man with pink hair and onyx eyes. He was wearing a black coat with golden outline but the coat only had one sleeve that was covering his right arm. He also had a white scarf around his neck giving off a scale type pattern. "Hang in there alright" his voice was filled with worry as he placed his hand on the rubble over my leg. With his touch it was all set on fire turning into ash. I was shocked. He had very powerful fire magic.
The male soon noticed my bleeding side. "GET WENDY OVER HERE NOW" he soon shouted his order as I heard some men reply 'Yes Sir'. My eyes were slowly closing as I heard running heading toward me. "Don't die on me just yet, hang in there" the male spoke as my eyes closed. The darkness taking over me as I couldn't keep my eyes open any longer.
