For The Forever Lost Souls

First Encounter

While Athy was strolling around outside, she had come across an area covered with trees. 'Huh? What's this? I have never seen this area before.' Athy became curious about the forest and decided that it would be a 'smart' idea to just waltz into the forest she knew nothing about.

'This area is pretty big.' Athy looked around at the tall trees surrounding her. Without realizing it, she was absentmindedly walking deeper and deeper into the forest.

Rustle. Rustle.

Athy heard the noise and whipped her head around as quickly as she could, but she saw nothing there. Then it dawned on her. She didn't know where she was! 'How do I get back from here?!'

Then, something started to charge at her. Athy didn't recognise what it was, and she also knew that she wouldn't be able to defend herself. All she could do was attempt to run from it. Her mind was panicked as she ran, but it didn't seem to matter how quickly she ran, she couldn't outrun the thing as it got closer and closer.

As it was about to collide with Athy, she felt a wind around her.

Swoosh.

Athy was picked up by something. No. by someone. Athy opened her eyes slightly to see who had saved her.

Shoulder-length red hair, beautiful brown eyes that looked like carnelian gemstones, and a stoic but ethereal appearance. After Athy's initial shock, she saw that the ethereal man in front of her had jewelled eyes like hers, eyes that only the Obelian imperial family had.

"'This must be one of the twins!'"

"Hello, young miss, what are you doing here?" Azrael spoke to Athy.

"'Oh my god! Even his voice is nice!'"

"Umm, hello, mister. I came here because I had never seen this forest before and got curious..." Athy tapped the tips of her index fingers together repeatedly.

"Hmm, I see." Azrael thought for a moment.

"What's your name, mister?" Athy asked.

"Ah, my name is Azrael. Nice to meet you." Azrael gave her a small smile before asking, "What is yours?"

"My name is Athanasia! But you can call me Athy!"

"Alright, Miss Athy."

"'So which twin is he? The one that's proficient in magic maybe?'"

They heard a yell from the distance, "Azrael, where are you!"

"Over here!" Azrael yelled back.

Athy looked in the direction of where she heard the voice to see another redhead with equally stunning features run towards them. "'How come both the twins are drop-dead gorgeous!? One twin is ethereal, and the other is insanely handsome!'" Athy had thought this was unfair as she looked at both the jewelled eyed twins.

"Who's this?" Asked the other twin.

"Athy, this is Ambrose, my younger twin brother."

"Ambrose, this is Athy, our half-sister."

"'Wait. He knew!?'"

"You knew Athy was your sister?"

Azrael gently smiled at her before saying, "You knew too, Miss Athy."

Athy looked to the side with an 'I've been found out' look.

"Would you like to join us for some tea, Miss Athy?" Ambrose had asked.

"S-sure..." Athy responded.

*This is funny, she's so cute! * Ambrose shared with his brother.

*Indeed. * replied Azrael with a small smile.
