"Alright everyone! Time to get up!" The loud voice screeched over the speakers. I for one was ready for the voice to show up. The bed cushion has started to feel like rock lately. So I got up and ready early, Ha! I'll get the best missions first.
I quickly got up out of my chair and exited my room, rushing down the hall to the main room. Ah, the stained glass of my family's symbol was light up perfectly this morning. The blade and lightning bolt through it shined onto the stone floor. Something else was new, the room was practically empty. I noticed the mission board was filled with new requests and papers.
As I read through each of them, they all just didn't interest me. Find information, Go undercover? Neither of those I wanted to do. Then one paper caught my eye, it was a wanted paper. It had a pretty clear picture of the man, shaggy brown hair, bit of a beard and apparently a lip piercing. I could assume what this guy had to have done. Maybe got caught up with some of the royal guards, perhaps stole something of value? My gaze soon realized that the room was starting to fill up. I quickly grabbed the paper, and Headed out the door. The breathe of fresh air was something I really needed.
The trees still stood tall, and the moss was hanging from some of the branches. I couple of birds flew past, surprising there were regular birds here. My family thought it would be great to own a place inside an enchanted forest, some sort of clique or something. Anyways, back to catching a wanted man?
I took the normal path I usually took to get out of here, any other way I might run into a griffin or something. The trees swayed in the small breeze, that was a little cold. I shoved slightly, and reached into my pack. I grabbed hold of a white cloak, with a red trim. My favorite of all cloaks, plus it kept me warm in the coldest of places. I swung it over my back and tied it around neck. The feeling of a breeze slowly diminished. Of course by the time I put it on I was outside of the shadow of those trees, speaking of shadow, My name is Shadow, Shadow LightBlade.
