I felt it as it splashed on my face, the weather reflecting one of my emotions. I don't have anything for the weather as I didn't expect this to happen. This is all so confusing. I can't go home and I don't know where I am. At least I got my colours back... I have no place to stay for the night and it's just turned dark. I sigh as I'm still walking down the almost empty street hoping to find another version of me.
"No place to go," I mumble and sigh.
I really miss my family and I'll probably never see them again, I'm only not crying because I'm really dehydrated. 'Oh that's right. Thirst is a thing... and so is hunger,' I think as I realise I am hungry.
I'm already soaked through. The school uniform I never got out of isn't helpful either.
I see a sheltered alley way and sit under it as close to the entrance as possible because I'm still slightly scared of it; but I'm tired, so it'll have to do.
------------------------------------------------------------
I wake up to someone shaking me. The first thing I see is the sky as it's slowly getting brighter. Then I look at the person. There are two people in some sort of armored clothing one in black, one in blue. I adjusted my mask cloth thing and the blue one says, "We were worried then, what are you doing out here?" He seems to be young, around my age. "I didnt have a place to stay and I was tired," I say sort of quietly. I haven't spoken to anyone for ages.
The girl wearing black helped me up as we got out from the alley way. "Oh, do you want to come to our place, get dried and some new clothes?" The girl asked politely. I analyzed her body language and face, she doesnt have any evil intent; she is genuine.
"Sure," I say, making sure I sound a bit happier.
We started walking down the street and the blue guy says, "How about we introduce ourselves? I'm Zack, and my friend here is Molly." He seems like a cheerful person. So does she.
"Well my name is Alastor," I say.
We take a left and there is this ship on the road. They help me on to it and it starts flying as we go inside.
We go into this lounge type area where this wise looking old man is. We all sit on the floor near him in a sort of semi circle.
"Who is this?" he asks Molly. His voice is calm.
"This is Alastor, we found him asleep on the street soaking wet," she replied.
"Well Alastor," he said as I looked up at him. "Yes?" I replied nervously.
"My name is Sensei Kenja, it's a pleasure to meet you," He continues in a happy calm tone.
"Molly, why don't you go get him a hot chocolate?"
"Alright Sensei!"
As she left the room Zack says, "Sensei, when are the others coming back?"
"One soon, one tomorrow," he replied.
Then we heard someone come inside the room.
_______---------_______----------______------____
I came inside the living room area and saw Sensei, Zack and... wait. What is he doing here? I stared at the person who isn't usually here. We both stared at each other in silence. I feel a tap on my shoulder from behind me and I break the stare and turn around. Molly is there with a hot chocolate probably for the guy. I need to know where he's from.
I go inside the room and move out the way for Molly. "Go on! Introduce yourself," Zack said confused from the little staring contest with the new guest earlier.
"Well... I'm Crimson, uh what's your name?" I ask hesitantly. There is only a small chance that he would be easy to find out from the name.
"My... name is Alastor," he says hesitantly as well. Does he know?
I walk more into the room as Alastor's hot chocolate is passed to him.
"So... Alastor?" I say.
"Yeah?" he replied wondering where I was going with this.
"Where you from?" I asked, this could help if it's not new.
I hope he knows what I mean.
_____-------_______---------______--------_______
I know what he's trying to say, but my places name isn't as subtle- I guess I could say the initials of it.
"Oh, I live down at 'P.E', if you know where that is; it's not that well known," I say half covering it up, half telling the truth.
"Oh, I know where that is!" Crimson says understanding what I did. It's good that he knows it.
"Uh, where are you guys talking about?" Zack asks confused.
"Oh it's not that important," I say trying to brush it off.
"Not important? We could get you home if we know where you live!" Molly tries to give more a reason to tell her.
What should I say to cover it up more?
Oh, I know.
"I don't live there anymore," I tell her. This hurt me a little because I would love to go home.
"Ok," Zack says.
I need different clothes.
"Are there any clothes I could wear?" I asked politely.
"What is your size of clothing?" Sensei asks me. I tell him.
"Crimson has that size! You could have his clothing as we wash yours!" Zack exclaims excitedly.
"Is that ok with you, Crimson?" Sensei asks him and he nod his head.
As we go inside his room he shuts the door behind us and I sit on his bed. He turns to face me.
"How are you here?" He asks me, very confused.
"I don't know." I stated truthfully.
He looks at me and goes, "Well uh do you know what this place is?" he asks genuinely.
"I know what it's called and that you have fire powers, but that's about it." I reply.
We both take off our mask cloth things.
"So I have this black button up shirt."
He passes it to me and I nod my head.
"These black baggy trousers with pockets."
He passes it to me and I nod my head again.
"Ooh! And this dark crimson red hoodie."
I nod my head smiling as he passes the hoodie to me.
"And here's some black socks."
He gives them to me and I put the clothes beside me on the bed. I take of my shoes as he turns around and puts back on his mask. "You can change now, I'm not looking,"
"I'm done," I say as he turns around.
I put on my mask and we both leave the room as I carry my soaked clothes.
Crimson leads me to the kitchen and when we get there Zack and Molly look over to us.
"That outfit looks great on you!" Molly says as Zack nods and takes my clothes off me to put in the washing machine.
Then we all sat at the small wooden table in there. Crimson sat next to me with Molly opposite to him and Zack opposite to me.
"So, Alastor: random question but what is your favourite colour?" Zack asks me in his cheerful voice.
"Uh... purple and crimson," I reply.
The rest of the day was just having food, seeing where I was going to sleep and learning what people's favourite colours were. We decided that I would sleep in Crimsons room on a load of blankets and cushions; we were all fine with this.
We said our goodnights and me and Crimson went to his room. He sat on his bed in his pyjamas and I sat on my blankets and cushions. This room is already warm so I don't need to get under them.
Me and Crimson looked at eachother.
