Tales of Arcadia The Arcane Order

10. Casperan

Y/n looked up to see a tall boy standing there with his hand out for her to grab. He had dark raven hair that faded into a blazing blue towards the end. He wore a black jumper with the same coloured black pants.

Y/n took his hand as he pulled her up of the floor.
"No it's my fault I've been distracted all day..." she mumbled putting her bag on her back.
"I'm Hisirdoux Casperan, but people just call me Douxie for short" he chuckled.
"Im Y/n, Y/n L/n." She smiled at the kindness of this boy.

"You going to the battle of the bands tomorrow?" Asked Douxie.
"Yeah me and my friends are going"
"Cool! Cant wait to see you perform" he smiled.
"Oh! Im not performing, I'm not so good I front of people..." she admitted sheepishly.
"I'm sure you'll get there one day, maybe we could play together once your comfortable with it!" Suggested Douxie enthusiastically.

"I'm free tonight if you wanna do something?" Asked Y/n.
"I'm working at the cafe tonight, but I'm free around... 6?"
"Sounds good to me!" Chirped Y/n before she wasn't stopped by her phone buzzing. Y/n took her phone to read the message.
"I got to go meet up with some friends, sooo hang up at the park?"
"See you then, nice meeting you Y/n!"
And with that, Y/n then darted towards Jim's house to meet up with the others.

"Hey Douxie!" Yelled Y/n waving as she ran over to him.
"Nice to see you made it!" Chuckled Hisirdoux as he put his guitar away.
Once Y/n was close enough to see what he had put down, she asked him eagerly "You play guitar?"
"Yep, I'm gonna be playing it in the battle of the bands, though I could get a bit of practice in before tomorrow." He explained with a grin on his face.

Y/n sat down on the bench next to him a huffed.
"Stressful day?"
"More like I'm stressed out because of a weird day I'm gonna have tomorrow..." sighed Y/n. Hisirdoux laughed at what she just said. 'This girl makes no sense' he thought to himself with a chuckle.
"Let me guess, your dreading something that's gonna happen?"
"Let's just say tomorrow is gonna be... interesting..." explained Y/n looking over at Hisirdoux.

The two ended up talking for hours, but, Y/n had a sort of feeling she recognised him. She started scanning through her brain to try find out where she might have seen him.

"Hey, is it just me or does it feel like I know you from somewhere..." she pondered.
"I only moved here a while ago so I doubt it, maybe I. Just similar to someone else you used to know" laughed Hisirdoux as he folded his hands behind his head.
"Hmm...." She thought to herself, then, it clicked.

"Your Hisirdoux Casperan!" Y/n blurted as she remembered where she remembered him. "From the battle of Killahead!"
"How do you-" Hisirdoux was cut of mid sentence as Y/n jumped into explain.

"Let's just say when I was younger I was abandoned when my parents found out I was magic, I was then found by a group of wizards who raised me and taught me how to use that magic. When I found out there was a war going on, I used a spell to spectate everything that happened seeing I wasn't aloud outside our home."

"That's why I remember you, your Merlin's apprentice you were in the battle of Killahead!"
By this point Hisirsoux was speechless. He didn't know what to say. What could he say?

Y/n noticed he was lost for words and decided to break the awkward silence.
"Sorry, I, didn't mean to expose you like that, it's just, I don't know I got ahead of myself when I realised I've seen you before..."
"No, it's, it's fine, just a bit of a surprise that's all, besides I'm glad I don't have to keep this secret from everyone in Arcadia." Assured Douxie as he lay his hand on Y/n's shoulder, similarly to what Skrael did whenever she was worrying about something or if she was frustrated.

The two wizards just kinda looked at each other for a while neither of them knowing what to say. When, both of them gave a slight jolt as they felt a mysterious power surge.
"Did you feel that to?" Asked Douxie unsure as to what just happened.
"Yep..." replied Y/n squeamishly, she knew that power surge well, she knew who was here, but as she had done for a while now she just stayed silent.

"Douxie, I'm not feeling to good I'm just gonna go home and get some sleep..." mumbled Y/n uneasily. Hisirdoux nodded but remained silent, he was still a bit on edge form that weird power surge.
