In this world, where love and hate clash to form one... all must be ready for their calling. Everyone has dreams, aspirations, and... hope. They all have something I'm searching for. What I'm searching for exactly is uknown to me. For I don't even know. I long for something thats missing, something that no one can find, something that is completly oblivious that I'm waiting and searching for.
Since the last war with the matrionites, everything has gone up in to flame. There is no food, no water. And this hope, one of the things I needed in life was lost forever... in all of us. The mothers hold their children close to them saying that everything will be alright and that they should calm down because she's there. Does she really beleive that? Who can really hope for the best in these times?
Mother, I am writting this to you wishing that I can see you again. I know that I can't see any of you and... you may not want to see me. But I swear!.. I will reach the gates of Corrieen if it's the last thing I do!

The letter was then tossed at a statue in a temple outside of a near by village. The letter as soon as it touched the statue sparked up into flame and fully dissapeared.A girl that looked approximently 22 years old stood near the statue. She just looked at the statue indifferently and turned around- headng to the exit of the temple. Her features lit up as the bright, golden sun was spread across the planet. Her ice blue eyes sparkled from the light but remained hard and cold like ice. Her blonde hair swayed with the cool breeze, as a storm was soon approaching. She did not care for there was truley nothing to care for. She learned in her journeys that the only person she could trust was herself- and she prefered it that way. While closing her eyes she quickley head out from the temples perimiters, heading towards the northeern forest of Cheriburb.
She smiled slightly "Oh, what fun. It looks like it's going to rain. Well I better find something to eat before it does or I'll starve again tonight." She spoke to herself eagerly. It took her several minutes before she found her dinner. She took out her bow and arrow, that seemed to come from nowhere and snuck up on the deer. She hid behind a tree and started to aim. She was normally a good shot but something distrupted her and made her miss. The deer quickley ran away, now nowing there was danger a foot. She heard it again and now had an infuriating look on her face, while her eyes turned a light purple "Alright! Show yourself!" she raised her voice as a laugh was heard. She grabbed another arrow and started to align it properly without looking at the bow. "If you don't show yourself now... be it upon your head!"
A dark shadow appeared to her right in an appearance of a small girl. "Alright, alright... yeesh." She stepped out from the shadows and a ray of light hit the young girls face. "No need to get so worked up about it." the girl waved her hand dismissevly. "There are plenty more where that came from. By the way my names Serenity, what might yours be pre-tell?" She asked "Kaoru. But what buisness of that is yours?" Kaoru replied with a slight scowl on her face. Serenity smiled and giggled to herself "Well it's not silly, Yet then again... what are you doing out here all alone anyway." a smug expression came across her face as Kaoru looked at her like she was an idiot. "I was hunting, what do you think I was doing? Having a party?" She mocked the girl. Serenity decided to ignore the remark while she kept watching Kaoru intrestingly. "No, no. What I ment was- why are you here all alone? Don't you have a family waiting for you at home or something?" Kaoru took a mere glance at Serenity and looked away. She put away her bow and arrow in the proper place- in a holster on her right shoulder. "I don't have time for this. Now please just leave me alone." she responded as she started to walk off.
The clouds grew heavy from the heap of water they were caring and soon it started to rain. Kaoru continued to walk off- that was enough human contact for her for a day but of course to her dissmay; it wasn't over yet. "Hey, hey come back!" she heard from Serenity's voice from behind her, getting closer and closer. "I told you to leave me alone" She responded with her normally stern voice. Serenity's hazel hair and Kaoru's had now grown soaked from the abundance of rain; and Serenity's green eyes grew dim from the amount of clouds, as Kaoru's remained the same. "Oh come ooon! It was just one simple question." She replied in a energetic and squeaaky tone. "Just tell me." "What does it matter? By the time I tell you we will already of been parted taking a seperate route." Serenity walked infront of Kaoru quickley which in turn made her stop in her tracks as planned, but slipping a little in the mud. "Well... It doesn't have to end up that way. I have nothing better to do and.." Kaoru interrupted "Well thats all fine to you isn't it? But unlike me,- I have things that needed to be done. And I do not have the time to look out for some child that has been a burden to me in the begging! No thankyou... I refuse to have you as company" She was in shock. Serenity was literally in shock. She had never met such a person that didn't like her before. Kaoru was different and she wanted, no. Needed to know more about her.
"Look. Don't take it the wrong way or anything ki-" "Take it the wrong way?" Serenity inturrupted. "How could I possibly?" she responded sarcastically "I mean.. I sit up in a tree all alone as a house for most of my life, finally find someone to talk to and you just turn me away. Gawd I mean. I had no clue a person could, could..." "could what?" Kaoru responded looking at her indifferently. "I told you that I have no time for this shit. I must leave. Now, if you'll excuse me." She slipped past Serenity and started to walk off again. "Haha. Can't get rid of me that easily." Seremity came up at Kaoru's left side. 'Oh brother. How in hell do I get rid of this pest?' Kaoru thought looking off into nothing and closed her eyes. 'I need to get rid of her but, how do I get rid of someone more stubborn than I? hmmm...' "So. Where are ya headed anyway?" she asked. 'Guess I'll have to learn to live with her company for a little while' they continued walking. "huh? answer me" Kaoru sighed. "Anywhere and everywhere.. And I will not stop until I get there." Serenity looked at her a bit confused but in a breif way, knew what Kaoru was talking about. They had no created a chain- and hopefully this one won't be broken like the last. "Hey can we get something to eat?" "No" "But whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy???" "Because you chased away my dinner thats why!" "Oh but I'm so hungrey!" "Just shut up" "One little thing please?" "I said no." "Oh come oonnnnnnnn!" "I said no so would you knidly do me a favor and... Shut the fuck up!?!?"
