They were a small group of teenagers; three boys and two girls, talking animatedly with each other. In front of them stretched a vast, rocky and totally plain desert, with no sign of shelter in sight.

It all began this morning in the city. Each one had received an anonymous invitation card. The card had not mentioned who it was from, or what it was for. All they knew was they had to come to a certain place at a  certain time. They didn't know anything else. Curious, they all arrived ahead of time.

They had been there for half an hour, and had gotten to know each other well. After chatting for a while, they discovered that none of them knew who sent the invitation.

Suddenly they heard footsteps behind them. They whirled around to see a handsome boy striding towards them. He had ocean blue eyes and light blond hair, and was dressed simply in a plain white T-shirt and blue jeans. Seeing them from afar, he smiled and raised his hand in greeting. They looked on speechlessly as he approached them.

"Welcome!" He exclaimed.

His voice was strong, but sweet as honey at the same time. They had never heard anything like it. They just stared at him, shell shocked. A few seconds passed in silence, and then a boy spoke up. He had straight black hair that he styled with gel. His dark brown eyes were filled with curiosity.

"Are you the one who invited us here?"

"Guilty!" The first boy replied good-naturedly, laughing and throwing his hands in the air.

The rest of them smiled  and began to relax 

"Ok, now how about some introductions? My name is Mahad (Maa-ha-dh). What's yours?" He asked, nodding his head towards the gelled hair boy.

He gave a small smile and stepped forward.

"I'm Asbar."

Mahad smiled and nodded once, then inclined his head towards the shy looking girl beside Asbar.

"My name is Sehr." She said in a soft voice.

Sehr had light brown mid-back-length hair, and light brown eyes. She was dressed in a pink dress with white tights.

"It's nice to meet you." Mahad replied still smiling.

The boy next to Sehr stepped forward before Mahad could nod towards him.

"Shad, at your service." He said bowing low. When he came up right again, his eyes were twinkling with laughter.

Mahad laughed. "Glad to receive your services."

Shad had light blondish-brown hair and golden eyes that seemed to be full of mischief at all times. He had a wide grin on his face which caused all the others to smile along with him.

Mahad then turned towards the girl beside Shad.

"My name is Mah-Rukh." She said, flipping her long black hair over her shoulder. Her eyes were the same as Asbar's; dark brown. And she was dressed in a red dress that hit her mid thigh with white tights.

 Mahad turned towards the last boy in their group. A silence seemed to descend on the others. This boy was separate from the others; a little distant, reserved. He was turned slightly away from them, facing the vast desert. His black hair was shining in the sun, and feeling their gazes on him , he turned around facing them with the most unique eyes amongst all of them; a bright grassy green.
