Chapter two

Seto sorcerer
The sun rises in the dawn of the morning sky. I groan as I slip out of bed. I wore my clothes to bed like I always do. Grey shirt, grey pants, no shoes, a white headband, and an old purple cloak that used to be worn by my now dead mother.

I miss her, the hunter that killed her seemed apologetic but I was 3. Living since then alone I couldn't tell that he might have been upset about the death. But he did take her corpse. For what reason I know not.

I don't have money to buy anything, not that I could anyways, so I make everything myself. All my clothes, food, even my house though I actually just live in the house where I lived before, I have changed things to suit me.

I neatly set my bed back up for the next time I sleep. I refuse to go to my mothers room. Even if that was where I slept too, being so little and all. I just can't bring myself to do it. So I have an arrangement of pillows and blankets in the corner of the living room/ brewery.

I have a table with potions and books by my 'bed' were I practise my magic and work on potions, though their really isn't a point.

I realize I am out of some herbs I need for a potion I'm working on. I sigh as I grab a poorly sewn leather bag I had put together one day and pull it onto my shoulder. Then I set out into the woods, grass crunching beneath my feet.

Meer minutes later I found a small cluster of what I was looking for beside a boundary of vines. Grabbing them I relax a little, I can head back.

But as I turn to leave I hear something.

"Outta the way biggums! Ima coming down!"

Curious I turn towards it. Though my mind says run, my curiosity says otherwise. I slowly approach the wall of vines and push some aside, just enough so I can see.

5 boys are standing around a large pond in bare feet and pants. Clothes tossed lazily aside to keep dry.

A one with coco coloured hair is hanging from a tree looking down on another with longer brown hair in the water below him.

A smaller boy with light brown hair in being dragged into the water by a boy who I recognize as the prince.

If the prince is here then I better watch out.The one who isn't in the water in laughing on the ponds edge.

His voice makes me wanna smile but my mind is screaming no. He has a very healthy body compared to me. Blue eyes and golden blonde hair.

Wait.... Oh no. He looks like the man who murdered my mom. But too young, maybe his son? But I didn't have time to think before the kid in the tree let go.

He fell into the pond laughing, but managing to splash me in the process sending me into a fit of sputters and coughing.

Sadly that causes attention. The teenagers all turned towards me with shocked faces. But it was the blonde that scared me the most.

He walked up to me causing me to back up, unfortunately, against a tree. He looked down at me confused as his friends showed up. They all peered down at me wondering what to do.

The attention goes straight to my head. But that gives me the side effect of tears as I slide down the trunk of the tree and look up at them.They notice this and look even more confused.

Suddenly, the blonde stretches his hand towards me. I flinch and curl into a ball.

" Please don't hurt me." I manage to squeak.

The blonde takes his hand back, all of them surprised at my response. I take the time to stand up and run
