A man. Breathing heavily in the pounds of armor he wore on him. A preist poured holy water on him and spoke a very silent prayer to the gods. This man was the leader of a distric. Distric 15 to be exact. This "leader" did not move, nor make any sound. The only sounds in that room was the wind blowing outside. A very sutble storm was passing over-head, yet the winds were strong.
On the other side of the city there was a school that was for all who wished to join the games. The Games were like a death wish. All who entered the school was forced to participate and no back-outs were allowed. This is were all kids are entered. At the age of 5, they start to learn how to survive on their own. Then when they are 13, they are entered in the years games.
The leader left the room after the ceremony was complete. He was led out into the garden and silently waited there. Ten minutes he waited, and came the messanger, with a girl. The girl was 13 years of age.
Quite young! He thought. The messanger brought the girl to the leader. She was wearing all black. She blent into the night-darkened floor. The stars shone brightly, but not even their lights could penetrate this place. Her eyes a deep yellow as though the sun had cast its ghost upon her. Tainting her soul with its firey gaze. They stopped in front of the leader.
" H-here is the girl you w-wanted sir." The messanger stutters showing he was scared.
"Thank you Vulcan. You may leave now." The leader said as he fixed his gaze upon the girl.
" Thank y-you Master Soul." Vuclan said before he slinked away. His blue eyes showing nothing but fear. As soon as Vulcan left, "Soul" started to talk to the girl. She just stared blankly at him. Not saying a single word.
" Listen to me as I talk to you girl!" Master Soul spat. She only smiled and waited for him to say more. He glared at Falcon. He had let his guard down and Falcon was determined to get under his skin and find his weak spot. She looked up at the clouds and gazed for a little while. Soul kept talking and after he was done... Falcon looked at him and spoke for the first time since her arrival there.
" You rule only in fear! Yet, why should I be afraid of you? I have nothing left! You could give any threat and I won't back down! Never! It just wont happen!" Falcon screamed at the end. Her yellow eyes blazing.
" You don't fear dying girl?" Soul seemed curious now.
" I don't fear death. Never have. I have no fear. If you think you can find a weak spot your wrong." Falcon challenged. Her smiled tainted with an evil, not even Hades would have thought of.
" Oh think I can. See I like you," said Soul slyly. " I think you'll stay here. Be our 'Secret Weapon' in battle." Soul never took his eyes off her.
"So you decide to rule in something that dosen't even exists? Fear does not EXISTS!" Falcon spat. She was getting mad now. Her eyes turning orange.
"Oh i believe fear does exsist. Look around you! Fear is what keeps things from breaking apart. Keeps kingdoms together and keeps secrets kept!" Soul screamed. He could see her eyes getting darker. He looked up. It was almost night time.
"You must remember, fear is not real! It is a product of the thought you create. Don't misunderstand me. Danger is very real. But fear is a choice." Falcon spat.
"Very wise girl." Soul said and started smiling. He looked at the darkening sky again. Soul looked again at Falcon who seemed to be calming down, for her eyes were lighter. " I think we should retire to our chambers. Come I will show you to yours." Falcon eyed him nervously. Soul tried to lead her by her shoulders but she caught his hand and flung it back at him and glared at him.
"Don't touch me!" Falcon screeched.
" Fine! Just go in your chamber! Your dinner should be brought soon." Soul said sharply and stalked away. Leaving Falcon alone at her chamber. She shut the door and went to her closet. Inside where clothes of all kind. Dresses and men's work clothes scattered the scared wardrobe. Finally in the back she found what she was looking for.
