Birds of a feather

Down Memory Lane

Back in his room, Kevin faceplants into his pillow as oz flies onto his little porch. "My head is killing me, and Oz, wake me up before I need to leave for the mission" well, before he could get that out, he already passed out.

On a dark foggy night down in Bonesborrow, not a person was out due to the empire at the time issuing a curfew for the town. Someone heard the muffled-up cry of a 3-year-old was heard. "M-Mommy, where are you? I'm sorry!" footsteps could be heard approaching the little boy. "mommy?"

"Well, what do we have here? Why are you out here so late and by yourself, no less?" the figure of a more prominent man around his mid 30's walks towards the kid, his gold stag mask being most evident.

The boy wipes the tears from his eyes. "my mommy told me to wait right here while she went to the market. Mom promised me that she would be back soon but then the sun went down, and she never fou-found me," the words getting choked up from his crying. The man is taken aback by this news.

"so that witch had a child, hmm, I can't let this get pointed back to me. I must handle this," the men bend down to the knee. "im so sorry, my friend...i passed by who I think was your mommy. She told me she couldn't handle her powerless child and dumped them off..." the little boy freezes, not even crying. He's trying to wrap his mind around this. "but it will be ok, boy, ill take you back with me! I'll be your new family!" the man rose and held his hand out "im empire belos. What's your name?"

The boy grabs his hand. "I'm Kevin." the two head off. The world starts waving and becoming unclear as Kevin opens his eyes, sweat coming down his face, his chest letting up fast "why! Why was it that memory Im not powerless anymore, so when will she come back for me."

There was a knock at the door. "Crow, we are leaving for the mission soon. Bee ready!" the cheeky voice of the golden guard and his steps leaving soon followed.
