Allysa awoke from a surprisingly comfortable slumber and sit up in bed. 'Wait, a bed?! They don't even offer that in the orphanage! Where am I?' Allysa looked around at her surroundings curiously. The room had brown fancy printed wallpaper, the windows were decorated with royal blue drapes, and contained a large book case filled with dusty decade old books.
"Ah, I see you have awaken, milady." A strange man walked in with a tray of soup and plastic containers of weird colored liquid.
Allysa was taken aback and very confused. So lets just say she didn't cooperate very well in these kinds of situations so her only choice was to scream.
"My, my milady! You have quite a voice there!"
"Who are you, what is with the soup and crazy colored liquid in those bottles?!" Allysa screamed. "Now, now calm down! You wouldn't want to wake up my dear brother in the other room, would you?" he asked. "There is another one of you?! That's it!" she screamed. " You know what? Screw you and your brother! I am getting out of this place, house, whatever!" Allysa proceeded to get out of the bed and run.
Thump.
Allysa lifted her head up to meet the blue- green eyes of the stranger.
"Well that failed miserably, didn't it?" he chuckled. "Shut the hell up!" she yelled. "Well, that's some colorful language you possess there. And I also am surprised that you would tell me such a thing, considering you cannot get up." he said laughing slightly. Allysa looked flustered and looked down a her ankle. 'What happened last night?' The strange man stood up. "I found you in the middle of my garden. I thought you were dead but, I heard faint breathing emitting from your mouth and your ankle was twisted quite a bit, so that is when I decided to take you into my home that I share with my little brother." Allysa looked up at him and their eyes met for quite a while. Noticing that she was staring, Allysa quickly looked away. "Thank you.... And sorry for using such profound language." she apologized. She then looked up at the man. He smirked and chuckled. " It is no problem, milady. I can see why you were startled." he smiled. He then extended a hand out to her. " My name is Alec Kingston II. My I ask the information of your name?" Allysa slowly took it and he helped her to sit on the bed.
"Allysa... Allysa Hyde."
"I am most certainly am charmed, Ms. Hyde."
