The air wrapped around a silhouette that stood from the balcony above. Two boys stared above curiosity filling their minds as they stood still. They had always heard the legends of the mysterious castle that moved, but not once did they suspect to ever witness it in front of their eyes. It was a huge, multi-colored building with two mechanical legs perpetuating it towards whatever destination the figure had decided on. They could not make out much of the said person other than the loose white top they had been wearing alongside the tight black pants that reflected the moonlights' beams. A sweet voice had rung out, but they could not make out the words that they had spoken.
They had longed to peek inside the castle, but there did not appear to be an opening insight. The boys heard their names being called back within the forest, most likely their village elders trying to usher them back as it was dark out. "Come on Pairo, it's time to go back," the blonde boy spoke to his younger companion. "But I wanted to see the inside of the castle!" he exclaimed. "I know Pairo, I did too." they both sighed and looked towards each other with a grim smile, "Maybe some other time," Kurapika said doubtfully of that statement. "Yeah, some other time," Pairo spoke. They both looked back at the castle once more before heading back home. "Hey, Kurapika?" Pairo called out to his friend. "Yes?" "Promise me that we'll eventually explore the world, and maybe even enter the moving castle together?" Pairo requested. " I promise to the best of my abilities," The blonde smiled as he responded.
Later on that night, Pairo had vanished leaving Kurapika on his own.
