Hell's Towers

Chapter One: Flos (part 1)

( The rest of the novel will be told in the third person. Happy reads.)

Flos never cared for much in her lifetime. She just had to go with the flow most of the time. She was once a family of five, but after her parent's death, it soon became just her and her aunt. Thankfully both of her brothers are still alive, and she hasn't seen or spoken to them in years. But that was soon going to change. It was a big day for her, not only marking the day her parents died but also the day she would finally be joining the Y.C.U ( which stood for Youth Conquer Unit.) May 27th was becoming more eventful each time it passed. Again she didn't care cause her dad was a dick; she did care for her mother, though.

Flos was always moving when she was younger, so she never made any human friends, but at a young age, she believed she didn't need one because she had two brothers to play with. By the age of ten, her mother finally stopped moving, and they eventually met their father there, which has been her home for the last seven years. The Island she lives on is called Solchira (which used to be known as Sicily), which was a part of the Peninsula Ilterra ( or back in the year 2020, known as Italy), Which is famous for holding one of the World's most extensive W.U.T. F headquarters. To be exact, it has three, and one of them was on Solchira.

Flos had to walk ten miles to town and five extra miles to arrive at the Y.C.U headquarters. She walked in absolute silence, reflecting on everything that had happened to her, she was pretty saddened having to leave her aunt, but it had to be done. Her aunt was everything to her, from a mother to a friend, even to a good listener. She was hearing out her every need and story. By the time she finally arrived in town, a smirk played across her lips. 'It will be hilarious seeing their faces once I tell them how old I am. Their eyes might pop out. All the time they spend on marketing to get more kids to join will feel like it just got thrown down the drain.' she thought.

It didn't take long for the townspeople to notice her either. She began hearing all sorts of gossip.
"Did you hear that Clavis girl is joining the Y.C.U.?" asked a village woman
" No, I didn't. Isn't she supposed to be some wild animal?" replied the woman's friend.
" She probably is. She even killed her parents. Or so they say."
" I have also heard of that; maybe there's some truth."
"Who knows, maybe her aunt will get lucky, and she'll die in the tower."
" Hopefully." giggled the friend

Flos was too far now to hear any more of that gossip. She was somewhat used to that type of talk. Her Aunt would always tell her people like that get bit in the ass by a snake for talking shit all the time. Flos smirk turned into a slight frown when she realized her aunt would receive some nasty backlash from today. And mostly from the head of the Clavis family, her grandmother. ' Sorry, Aunt, I'll repay you for dealing with that old hag.' Flos said to herself. Her grandmother deemed her unworthy and a killer after the death of her parents. This is how she ended up living with her aunt, and they were both kicked out of the family and ended up living in a small house outside of the village. 'Sheesh, maybe that old hag will finally die this year.' she grumbles.

When she arrived at the gates of Y.C.U., she could feel all her energy drain away. "Firetruckkkk!" she sighed out loud, "It's just for a little while." trying to comfort herself but failed Miserably. "Ugh. I wished it would end already." " If I don't do it today, I will fail my friends." she walked up to the gate and pushed it opened
