Past...

A young girl choked on tears as she raced through the forest to a large city. She ran into someone at the gate as she trembled. No no no-

"Are you alright?" Her eyes shot upward to meet the person's eyes. She noticed armor before she got to her feet.

"Y-yes-" A loud sound came from behind her, alerting her of the current problem. The guard noticed her flinch and gently touched her shoulder.

"Come on-"

~~~

She was led to the castle as a loud sound alerted the kingdom. She trembled. She didn't mean to bring danger to this place. She was pulled into a room as a soft conversation filled the air. She scanned the room before a gentle voice touched her ears.

"Hello dear." She turned to see a kind lady in a maid dress. "Are you ok?" She nodded before the lady smiled. "Good. My name's Catherine. Why don't you sit down and rest?"

Later, someone entered the room as the small girl rested. She was shaken awake before her blue eyes met red ones. She blinked before she adjusted, now seeing a small boy.

"Hello?" The boy smiled at her as she blinked.

"Hi!" A soft giggle followed his words as someone joined them, revealing an older male.

"Hello, dear. Nice rest?" She nodded.

"Yes sir..." The smaller boy had climbed up and joined her on the chair, hardly taking any room.

"Good... what's your name?" She paused.

"Blue..." The man paused.

"From the Earth Kingdom?" Tears formed as she remembered what happened. The older man pulled her into a hug. "Shh... you can stay here... no fear... no fear..."
