Part One

Long ago, in the vast, open lands we know as Verocinia, a young couple stood beneath the night sky. The couple was broken and deprived of all happiness. The two planned to have a child, but it was not to be. The son that they had birthed would not cry, would not move, would not breath. Would not live.

The man soon left, leaving the woman alone with her shattered frame of mind. She was by herself for many years, that is, until she came up with an idea. She waited until the sky was clear and the sun set on the horizon, revealing the darkness that was the night sky.She stared up, the sky reflected in her gaze.

"The world has wronged me, yet I am yet to wrong the world. Thou hast taken from me my love and my young. Give me what it is that you owe," and with that, she flew up into the night, searching.

She plucked out the two prettiest stars she could see and brought them back down to earth, where they turned into children. They weren't babies, but appeared to be more of 15 years of age.

The first child had long, sky blue hair, bright yet pale. She was tall and had a strong build. Her skin was clear and thin. Her eyes reflected that of another world. One that was full of life and covered in green and blue.

The second child had short, bluish-black hair, dark as the depths of the ocean. She herself was short and frail. Light freckles dusted her cheeks, clashing with her pale skin. Her eyes held the night within them, stars making them shimmer. Each child had a peculiar thing added to their appearance, though. One had a set of fox ears, a fox tail, whiskers, claws, and extra sharp canines. The other had a long, thin weasel tail and ears. (Don't judge me boii)

The first child was named Kat, the second one Allon. The two were opposites in personality, yet went together like peanut butter and jelly. Kat was calm, wise, and patient while Allon was jumpy, outgoing, and filled with life. They both had many talents, yet would often test each other, seeing which was better. Kat often rained superior, but Allon refused to give up.

The twins would often travel into town to play with the other children. They would always tease Allon, though, for her failed attempts to overcome her sister. This would
always make Allon mad, and would make her yell at the other children.

Kat would tell Allon that it was because she was the bad twin, and that she couldn't change it. This only made Allon more mad. She began to yell at the other children more and more until she eventually struck one. They had fought for only a few minutes before some other children broke it up.

When Allon came home, her mother was furious at how dirty Allon had become due to the fight. She first punished her by not talking to Allon, then she stopped feeding her breakfast, lunch, and even dinner. She eventually made Allon sleep outside, no matter what the weather was like.

Each night, Allon would get more and more angry. Talking to Kat didn't help with her rage, either. She would always tease Allon, and say that it was her fault because she was the bad twin. Allon refused to believe it, yet it only made her all the more angry.

She blamed her mother for spoiling her twin, as well as for ignoring her. She was hurt. Her heart was aching from the neglect. She was starving, too. Not only for food, but for a love that she had been lacking her entire life.

One night, however, an idea came to her head. It seemed crazy, but it would surely work if done right. Allon spent the next few nights planning out the idea very carefully. She couldn't mess this up.

She was going to run away.
