So far it has taken me an entire year to get to Europe. It was so strange to be half way across the world. Doing small jobs for people was finally paying off, I had enough money to get me here and still had enough money to buy a few things. I found a woman and began talking to her.
“Excuse me ma’am. What is the name of this city?” She looked up at me and smiled.
“This is Verona. Verona Italy.” She said with a wide smile. I smiled back and explored the city. Verona was such a beautiful city, the only thing that ruined it was the bob of red hair in the market crowd. I ducked into shop and found new clothes. I bought them and quickly left. I searched for an abandoned building and when I found one I pulled out my newest knife and cut the sleeves off of the black top and fur coat.
The coat was now a vest and I didn’t hesitate to change into them and put my new knee high boots on. I quickly took my old clothes to an orphanage and left before any questions could be asked. I had to find a way to hide the red streak in my hair and pulled my hair into a swirl around my head. Hopefully Cross wouldn’t be able to find me like this. I was still wearing black and Ko’lae was able to lay across my shoulders and blend into my vest.
I found an abandoned house and stayed there, making sure to avoid any windows.
“Can we avoid him forever?” Ko’lae asked me jumping from my shoulders and stretching. I stretched and looked at her.
“I hope so, Ko’lae. I hope so.” I sighed.
“Why haven’t we seen any demons since we left?” She asked me. I thought for a minute and found myself confused instead.
“I don’t know really. Maybe it’s that exorcist that’s following us.” I replied.
“I miss mom.” Ko’lae sighed. I could tell she was depressed and I felt the same way. We were out on our own and we couldn’t age at all. There wasn’t a way that we knew of that could reverse the effects of the witch’s curse and that was torture .
“I know. I do too.” I replied to her. For the rest of the day I was examining my knife and watching for any signs of anyone near. No one came and by the time it was dark I was so bored I fell asleep. I could hear laughing in my dream. I looked around, but couldn’t find the source.
“Oh the poor child. ♥” A jolly voice said. I looked behind me and saw a man, he was plump and dressed like a clown. He had strange colored skin and a big smile.
“You must miss you mother.♥” He said.
“I may miss her, but she is in the place she was destined to be. I can’t change that, and I won’t.” I replied, a straight look on my face. He started to say something but I cut him off.
“Who are you?” I asked, my voice hard.
“I’m the Millenium Earl.♥” He said. I rolled my eyes and tried to wake up. It didn’t take me long before I forced myself awake. When I woke I was laying in a bed. I looked around at my surroundings. I was in a motel room with two beds, Ko’lae beside me. I saw something move and noticed the exorcist in the other bed. His coat was hanging on a coat rack and I decided to investigate. I got off the bed and quietly made my way to his coat.
I didn’t have my shoes on and found them next to his coat. The first thing I did was put my shoes back on then I caught sight of something silver. I grabbed it and found that it was a gun, the same gun he had pointed at my head the first time we met. I found his other one and looked at them. They were simple and I didn’t understand why he had them in the first place.
After looking at the guns and getting very bored, I walked to the window and looked out. It was still dark and looked like it was starting to rain. I wanted to walk out the door and run, to find a way to avoid this exorcist, Cross. As much as I wanted to leave I wanted to stay, I wanted to know why this man was so interested in me. After letting my thoughts wander I looked for the darkest corner of the room and when I found it I placed a chair there and sat down.
