Episode 1: Teguchi
Present time
A boy with shaggy black hair and hazel eyes gasped as he watched the scene before him. He was currently watching a Magik show. Even though you had to pay to get in, he had his head poked through the curtains of the tent, and he had a perfect view of the show.
He smiled as the magik user made a ball of flames appear over the crowd.
"Hey kid." Someone grabbed him by the back of his collar. "Huh, yeah mister?" He questioned, he really wanted to get back to the show. "Your suppose to pay. So pay up." The man said making a money gesture with his hands. He blinked. "Eh, I don't have money. That's why I was peeking." He admitted innocently.
The man cocked an eye brow. "So you're a free loader. You know what we do to those?"
The boy shook his head. "Can I get back to the show now?" He asked growing impatient. Seriously, didn't the man see he was watching a show, and his breath reeked of ass. Seeing as though the man wouldn't let him go he twisted outta his grip and ran inside the tent. Only to see the show had ended.
"Aww.." He pouted, that stupid man!
He could hear the man shouting and the boy fell in with the crowd. His stomach let out a rather loud growl and he sighed. It had been HOURS since he had eaten. He searched through his satchel only to find no food source. Since he didn't have a home or anything he had to scavenge food.
He walked through the busy streets filled with merchants and caravans. He smiled when he found an abandoned one on the side. Well no one was near it so it should be fine, right?
He hoped on the back of it and opened one of many barrels and smiled to himself.
"Berries!" He shouted and started to scarf 'em down. He was probably on his third barrel when the door of the caravan was open. A girl with long wild red hair came in,with barrels on each of her shoulders. A look of bewilderment past on her face.
The boy didn't notice her tough, he was too busy stuffing his face. She sat the barrels down quietly, her red eyes looking him over.
"Oi girl, what's taking so long!?" A man's voice shouted. The boy jumped and stopped eating. He turned and saw the girl look at him for a few seconds before getting out the door.
"I'm sorry master." She whispered, her eyes on the ground. If she looked at him he'd give her a punishment. "Forgive me."
The man snorted and pointed to one last barrel. She nodded, and scurried over- chains around her feet rattling- and picked up the barrel.
When she came back into the caravan, the boy was still there eating. She panicked, what if her master saw him? She'd get blamed and punished!
She sat the barrel down, and the door to the caravan closed behind her and locked.
"You'll stay in there for your punishment." He said through the door.
She sighed in relief.
The boy turned around again when he heard the man's voice once more. Only to see the girl once more, huddled in the corner. He tilted his head to the side. Why did she have chains around her ankles? He smiled and went over to her.
"Hi, I'm Teguchi!" He said happily.
